G&T

The bar was small and dimly lit on the inside. Mina sat at the counter and tried to ignore the bright sounds of a small tv blabbering behind the large bearded bar man. The gin and tonic she ordered was almost empty and she contemplated ordering a second.

"Need a refill?" The barman said as if reading her mind. Driving home wouldn't be a problem. Her telekinesis had a way of following orders and could get her home safe even if she was plastered. Then again she had been out some time and yearned for her bed. She glanced up at the barman.

"Sure. Another." She ordered, while running a hand though her hair.

"Why don't you let me pay for that one." A voice behind her said. Mina rolled her eyes. She was used to being hit on, it happened everytime she and Allison went out but she didn't feel like dealing with drunk assholes at the moment. A man leaned his elbow on the counter next to her and stuck out his hand.

"Names Brian." His hand hovered in front of Mina waiting for reciprocation. She coldly side eyed him and pushed his hand away. This guy didn't have a chance, he wasn't bad looking but Mina had a type and he definitely was not a member.

"Already taken fool." She uttered. Brian stared blankly, unable to respond to such brutal rejection.

"Right, you're sitting alone. Definitely taken." Mina was getting irritated from his percistance.

"I mean, pay if you want but I'm not going to talk." Brian took the hint.

"Fuck...nevermind then." He skulked back to a table filled with snickering men. Mina watched as he tried vainly to defend his honor, but it seemed his friends only began to laugh more. Suddenly her half finished g & t tasted bitter. She hurriedly yanked some cash out of her pocket onto the counter and rushed to her car. Mina got in and found herself unable to start the engine. Where was she going? Back home to Allison? That idea seemed a little too fresh to be possible. She was about to drive to the nearest hotel when she saw Brian come out the bar. She stared as he walked down the street, and as she watched Mina felt a building sense of guilt. She was responsible for his humiliation just like she was responsible for the tension between her and Allison. Brian suddenly turned and entered a group of apartments. A moment later a light turned on a few floors up.

'He lives close...' Mina thought. 'Maybe I should give him an apology.'
