The bass inside the lounge was a heavy, constant thrum that vibrated straight through the floorboards and into JK’s chest. He sat at the far end of the marble bar counter, slowly swirling the amber whiskey in his glass. He was dressed in a sharp black button-up shirt, looking completely detached from the crowd. He checked his watch and let out a heavy sigh, adjusting his cuffs.

I think there is no one here today

JK muttered to himself, his deep voice barely audible over the music. He downed the rest of his drink, ready to give up and leave the bar to return to his empty apartment.

...----------------...

Suddenly, the barstool right next to him slid open with a sharp scrape. JK looked up from his empty glass. A young man sat down, gripping the edge of the counter so tightly his knuckles turned white. It was V.

V’s eyes were red-rimmed and glassy, his breathing erratic. His flushed cheeks and trembling lips showed just how close he was to breaking down.

"Just give me something strong," V said to the bartender, his voice trembling as he tried to blink away fresh tears. "Anything. Just make it strong.

JK’s gaze locked onto V. He tracked the sharp, elegant line of V’s jaw, moving up to notice the pure, innocent look hidden beneath the intense heartbreak in his eyes. He leaned slightly closer, his deep voice dropping an octave to cut through the noise.

Rough night? JK asked softly.

V turned his head slowly, his wide, tear-filled eyes meeting JK’s dark gaze.

You have no idea. I just need to forget. I want to erase everything from my mind tonight. Just for one night."v said

You want to erase a memory, or a person?" JK asked, sliding his glass closer.

V let out a bitter, breathless laugh.

Both. My boyfriend of three years... I found him with someone else an hour ago. I gave him everything, and he just threw it away like it was nothing.

Then he's a fool,JK said, his voice firm and steady.

People treat loyalty like it’s a cheap commodity. That’s why I don’t believe in love. It’s just a messy lie that leaves you broken.

V looked at him, surprised by his bluntness. "You don't believe in love at all?

No, JK replied honestly.

But I do believe in distractions. I can help you forget him for tonight. Let's get out of here.

V bit his lip, staring at JK's hand on the counter.
