The Bar: A Forthbeam Oneshot

An Evening with A Stranger!

It was a busy evening and so many people were walking into the bar to end their day with drinks!

Beam was sitting near the counter having beer, making small conversations with the bartender when a man, a hot and handsome man, came in and sat next to him.

The man was constantly staring at Beam and Beam was aware of his gaze and was purposefully ignoring him.

"Hi beautiful", he said to Beam.

"Hi", The man called him beautiful, Beam hated people calling him beautiful yet he replied.

"What's your name cutie?", The man didn't show any sign to leave Beam alone.

"Not interested....", Well! Being blunt was somehow Beam's birthright.

Oh...burn!!..the man was shocked at the coldness of his voice and said, "Not even slightly?"

"I am married", Beam lifted his left hand showing off his ring finger where his wedding ring was.

The man looked at his ring and replied, "It is not my fault that if I came at a later stage to your life". The man said with a pout.

Beam was dumbfounded at the man's pout and said, "I got a 3 year old kid mister".

"I m sure I ll love him very much if I get a chance to meet him", Beam had to acknowledge the audacity of the man.

"You are really confident in yourself, huh?", He was daring. He ll give him that.

"That I am.", The man answered rather pridefully and he continued, "It might sound very cliché as heck to you, but I really wanna say this. I think I have seen you before"

"Oh My God!! That is the worst pickup line ever used on me", Beam was laughing holding his stomach.

"You know I think I like you", and the man kept on hitting on Beam.

"Well guess what! I don't like you at all", Beam said with a smirk.

"Maybe we can do something to change that, what do you say?", Man asked rather playfully.

"I love my husband so very much you asshole!", Beam was getting irritated.

"Then tell me, why are you in a bar, at night, all alone, drinking beer, huh?", The man showed no signs of leaving him alone.

Beam heaved a sigh and said rather irritably, "Maybe I am pissed at my husband coz he forgot to wish me on our anniversary"

Oh burn!, "What a lousy husband"

"You know what! Maybe as a revenge, you can have a hot extra marital affair with a handsome guy you met in a bar", man said suddenly proud of his idea.

Whatever shit it might be, Beam was enjoying his company, "Let's just say we are being hypothetical here! give me at least one reason good enough to have an affair with you"

"What if I give you more than one", the man was excited that Beam was willing to give him a chance.

"Maybe I ll consider it", Beam said making the stranger do a victory air fist bump.

"I am handsome"

"My husband is handsomest"

"I am rich"

"My husband is richer"

"I own a company"

"My husband owns the company, me and our kid"

"This is not gonna work! You are just contradicting every single of my statements", the stranger said with a pout making Beam smile.

"Then make a good case! Convince me!", Beam added rather playfully.
