The next day was the weekend. Chen lay there, thinking. For a kid, Dasha made a lot of great points. The playground wasn't the same as the adult world, sure. However, the principle of bravery was still there. Chivalry existed.
"Maybe I should go," he said to himself. "One last try."
He decided to go to a bar for once. Chen didn't want to be the last of his kind. Old school love was hard to come by and he was sure that the ladies would enjoy it. That was just how women were, they enjoyed the company of strong men with a strong mind and sense of duty.
The atmosphere in the bar was loud and chaotic. Chen felt out of place among the younger crowd, but he pushed through his discomfort. He spotted a woman sitting alone at the bar and mustered up the courage to approach her.
"Mind if I join you?" Chen asked, trying to sound confident.
The woman looked him up and down. "Buy me a drink?"
