Kuro's writing exercise 2
Okay, this will be my second writing exercise as answer to 2D Teleidoscope's challenge. This week's challenge is to write something that incorporates this phrase.
drink another between night & blue
... and here's the stuff that I wrote. Hopefully, this is okay. Comments are very appreciated.
On a lonely night like this, drinking with another person seems to be the best thing. Tonight, its just not meant to be.
The nightlife in suburban Manila is pretty much active and me being brought to here by my own two feet really have nothing much to do except to loiter and feel the nightlife.
Night time Manila is so different than it is during daytime, its almost magical. Looking at the bright lights on every street that I walk to It feels that I'm the place is transformed into some theme park where instead of kiddie rides, the attraction is bars and cafes, serving wine and liquor and instead of kids, its grown-up people enjoying in pleasant conversation as they drink their worries away for the duration of their stay in this enthralling grown-up park.
I guess bars are the place people are able to freely vent put their frustrations, as evident of the rare bar room brawl I spot at the corner of my eye. Best that I stay away from that.
Settling at an outside table this fancy disco bar, I order my drink to the waiter, and as I wait for my order to come, I look at the customers of this seemingly reputable establishment through its transparent tinted front glass walls. I see mostly young adults aged 18 to 22, the guys looking cool and suave and the girls dressed in the latest sexy fashion drinking liquor and dancing to the beat of trance music amidst the backdrop of colorful disco lights with the ever present disco ball on top of the dancing young people. It was a sight to behold.
Finally, my vodka is here. Did you know that vodka means water in Russian? This is my magical water that helps me forget all of my worldly worries with each shot.
Between the night and my lonely blues, I guess vodka is the only companion that I have as I drink my first shot of vodka to drink away this loneliness. Cheers.
