I literally bumped into her as I cut my way through the crowd, knocking the drink out of her hand and onto the floor. I pushed the broken glass into the corner with my foot and made my way over to the bar to buy her another drink.

We made small talk, nothing of consequence, we chatted about the music, the weather, a girls shoes. As we spoke she looked at me with her soft, brown eyes, twirling her hair round a finger, she said she wanted to dance with her friends but I wasn’t in the mood. She stayed and talked.

Later when I needed to leave she told me that she liked me, she would like to see me again she said, she could come back with me, spend the night with me, images flashed through my mind of her undressing.

I picked up my coat, “it was nice to meet you”, I said, “but I don’t think so, not tonight, maybe I’ll see you around”,

I left the bar and jumped into a waiting taxi, she was nice but I’d got better ways to spend 1000rmb.
