I stared into his eyes. His eyes penetrated my soul. I went through the motions of getting a refill for him. As I handed the glass to him, our hands touched. We both felt it. I found myself smiling.

His smile grew, "So is mine. I go by my initials, JJ. I better get back to my friends." He left and I lost him in the crowd.
We were busy all the way till closing time. I cleaned up and clocked out and headed for my car. As I unlocked the car, another car pulled up. It was JJ.
He had the empty glass still in his hand. "Can I get another refill?"
