Yes (Skip Side Story)

I was about 10 minutes into Mira's class when I noticed she was acting strange. It felt like she was really out of it and kind of going through the motions. It was a stark contrast to her usual bubbly self - outside of office hours, at least - and definitely far from her confident and dominant self that I knew privately. I thought I should just finish class and then see what's up.

After class was done, I took my time gathering my things, making sure all the other students had left and leaving me alone with Mira.

"Hey there," I said, walking up to the front of the room. Mira kept gathering her stuff, not looking at me or even acknowledge my presence. "Did I do some-" I went silent after she gave me a stinging glare. Although she didn't say a word, her eyes told me what she wanted me to hear, shut up. I just stayed there silently waiting her to finish packing. As soon as she was done, she grabbed her bag, turned around, and simply said "follow me bitch." I stood there shocked for a couple seconds before the sound of her high heels clacking on the ground brought me back to reality, and I hurried to catch up to her.

"So he's up there, pretending to be a big deal like we were privileged to be listening to him!" Mira was slurring her words at this point. She had taken me to a bar right off campus and had already had 4 beers and a couple shots. She had taken day drinking to a whole new level. "And he's only published like 4 papers in the field, but his smug ass is pretending like he solved the paradox of enrichment." God she was so hot when she started talking in math jargon. "But that's not the worst part! He kept on staring at me like the entire time. After he was done, he had the balls to come and flirt with me!" Mira was practically screaming at this point, not caring about the looks the bartender gave her.

"What the fuck, aren't you too young for him?" I ask, feeling kinda tipsy myself.

"yeah yeah, so this 50 something year old bald guy is just hitting on me, and I hate every second of it, but I don't storm out or anything cause he is an important contact for the future. I just let him sweettalk for like 2 minutes, pretending to be interested in his shit."

"Well what happened afterwards?"

Mira took a swig of her beer before continuing. "The bitch asked me out."

"Oh god what did you do?"

"I had enough of his shit so I leaned into him, put on my best seductive voice, and whispered to him that he has 10 seconds to leave me alone or else I'm screaming '****'."

"Holy shit you are insane!"

"I know right. At first he looked at me weird, but the I started counting and before I even hit 2 he got scared and walked off."

"Well at least you got rid of him." We sat in silence for a few seconds. "So is that why you were so down today?"

"Not exactly. I guess it's just a bit of everything." Normally I would expect her to stop sharing here but I guess the **** was kicking in strong. "I'm also like sooo horny, I haven't had good sex in months!"

"No fucking way, a girl as hot as you? I don't believe it for a second."

"Well you better believe. I broke up with my boyfriend at the start of the summer. You know, the usual cheating story. I caught him in the act."

"Oh shit that must've sucked."

"Well let's see. We had been dating for 2 years. I caught him doing it in my dorm, with my best friend, the weekend before my birthday. Also my best friend was a guy so I found out that my boyfriend had been hiding being bisexual from me the entire time. What a way to find out, am I right?"

"Holy shit that sounds like straight out of a Mexican drama!"

"Yeah I know. I was so devastated I didn't date anyone else for like 3 months. But then second week of the semester I got a date, remember that?"

"Oh how could I forget, you made me lick your high heels in preparation."

She giggled at my comment. "And you did a great job might I add. So yeah, huge misogynist and doesn't do any sex position besides missionary. Worst sex of my life. Since then I haven't done it with anyone."

"Well that sucks."

"I know, it's like where can I find a guy who's head over heels for me, will do literally anything when I tell him to, and is willing to pleasure me without reciprocation." That wasn't a hint, that was a fucking bullhorn, but alas I was too tipsy to realize and just nodded and said "sometime it be like that." What a fucking doofus.

"Ugh I guess I have to lead on everything. Come on I need someone to walk me to my dorm."
