The lady bartender was also a bit surprised but went to go and get his drink. That probably also caught the attention of the other girl near him. She turned her head to look in his direction.
But instead of smiling at him, she just shook her head in disbelief. Though she did smile eventually, it was a grin, saying she was more amused by him than the situation.
"What is so funny?" He finally asked as he also turned to her, looking directly at her. "Do I have something on my face?" He patted his cheeks as if he was trying to remove an invisible speck.
He did not plan to use that as a start-up conversation, but the opportunity presented itself, so he had to grab it by the balls. He was never great at pick-up lines, not having any practice with going out with random girls.
He did not usually come up to girls at a bar. In truth, he rarely had been inside a bar. With his busy schedule, going out had always been out of the question, much alone dates.
