I don't know where I'm going. I've been walking in the streets for a good 15 minutes. All I know is that I need to clear my head right now.
I take my phone out of the front pocket of my jeans and search for the nearest bar/club. I found one maybe half a mile away.

I open the door and the odor of liquor hits me right in the face. I haven't been in a bar in so long. I go to the counter and take a seat. The bartender comes up to me.
"What can I get you?" He asks.
"Beer please," I answer.
He pops the cap of a beer and slides it over to me. I gulp it down within 5 minutes and ask for another one.
Maybe 5 minutes later, a guy enters the bar and sits beside me. He orders a beer too.
"Tough morning?" He asks.
"Yeah, you can say that." I take a sip of my beer.
"Same. I just got fired."
"Damn. Im sorry man."
"Yeah. What happened to you?" He asks and chugs his beer.
"Got cheated on." Is all I say.
I don't know why I just told this to a stranger. I mean, he doesn't know me or Lexie so it's not like he can do anything with it.
"Wow I'm sorry. Wanna talk about it?" He asks.
I look at him.
"I don't even know you, man."
"Yeah, I know but sometimes talking to a stranger can help. I'm Matt by the way." He helds out his hand.
I hesitate before shaking it.
"Lucas."
