I went to the bar because it was my birthday, celebrating my 21st year of existence. I decided to go alone and not bother my best friend or family. They thought I was sleeping in my boarding house. It was late at night.

I love dancing and partying, so I sat at the front desk where the bartender was busy mixing cocktails. That's when a handsome young man with an aquiline nose and a fresh scent sat beside me.

He smiled and asked for my name. I introduced myself as Luiza and told him it was my 21st birthday.

"Happy birthday, Luiza!" he said. "I'm Carlo. I'm alone tonight. Can I accompany you?"

I thought he seemed like a good guy, so I agreed. "Sure, Carlo! Let's enjoy this wonderful evening and party!"

After drinking too much alcohol, I couldn't stand up to go home. When I woke up in the morning, I found myself in a beautiful place.

"It's dangerous, Luiza! You shouldn't act and drink like that," Carlo said.

Confused, I asked, "Who are you? What did you do to me?"

Carlo reassured me, "I'm Carlo, your friend from last night. Don't worry, nothing happened between us. I just brought you to my condo so you could sleep."

Realizing he had to leave for a meeting, Carlo gave me his contact number and assured me that his maid would assist me. "You can leave whenever you want. She's waiting outside."

"Thank you," I said. "Happy birthday to me!" I shouted before continuing my sleep.
