A dollar won is twice as sweet as a dollar earned. -Extended-

What the hell was I even doing here at midnight? The most high end Casino in town. I stood at the front of the Casino and was blinded by the fluorescent lights that shone in every direction. Well dress and clearly loaded men surrounded the Pai Gow Poker table that was in view from the entrance.

I walked in and instantly was greeted by among many people. The whole atmosphere was buzzing. I had never been to a Casino before and instead sat on a stool near one of the Poker tables.

Two presently dressed gentleman waited for players at the table. He looked me up and down-I was unsure of his thoughts but,in politeness I smiled back at him. I watched them play several moves. I was offered a drink and I couldn't help to accept..maybe just one..I thought.

It was just another dismal evening ..everything seemed to be tedious , when i decided to go downtown and hit the Casino and have some fun in there , as i walked in , my sight caught one of my best friends in there . a glam of delight crossed over my face as i really needed a company and i was really bored .. HEY MYA !! ''I shouted '' but it doesn't seem like she heard me as there was too many people in the casino and the crowd noises were pretty too loud in there . as i rushed by to get her attention , a man ran into me in the sudden , he dropped his drink all over my pants , but my shirt was intact , '' I am so sorry sir '' Said the gentleman , ''Its fine , i said ..frowning . so i decided to go clean up , after a while , i just decided to go and order something to drink . but i wasn't intending to get so drunk! , probably just semi-sober .

Among a group of more men. I was wary of what may come of this.
"A game of Strip Poker?" One man asked me,who was most clearly mistaken. With no reply I made the decision to go into another area of the Casino and carried my red wine with me.

I noticed Ais near the other bar area and gave him a small wave hesitant of the wine I was carrying with me. "Hey Ais!" I exclaimed. What was he also doing here at this hour?

Unfortunately , i couldn't control myself and i didn't keep the promise i made with myself about not getting too drunk . ''hahaha'' i quietly laughed . ''I should probably go home before i mess up just like how i always do when i'm drunk '' i said to myself , as soon as i was about to pay what i had to pay for the drink , as again , Mya got on my sight . '' I should probably say hi '' i said , i seen Mya approaching near by where i was sitting , as she turned her head saying hi to someone that she probably knows , and in a moment of retraction and hesitation , and because i was afraid of embarrassment (remembering the last time i socialized with someone in a non-sober state ) rumor has it and i just walked out of her sight . ''I'll come up with something to justify what i just did , hoping that she won't think i'm avoiding her or anything '' i said with myself continuing my way out walking in a hurry . when suddenly , i've seen a woman that seemed to be familiar to me . but i couldn't remember where i seen her . but i probably know her because she constantly drop in the town Casinos and clubs .
'' Why are you rushing ? '' The lady said ,
'' umm i mmm i just ...I '' mumbling .
'' Are you ok ? '' She said '' ...
''I'm ffffine , i'm good ..yea good '' i said .
''Great , i was worried for a second '' she said
''Wwwhy ?'' I said .
''What why , are you sure you're ok ? '' she said .
'' I I'm sorry but i have some commitments and i'm late '' I said
'' With that state ? , you can barely walk .. '' she said laughing ''
'' I'M FINE '' I shouted and continued my way trying to reach the exit .

I noticed that Ais was not in the state of the sober. I noticed his steps weren't exactly in the best co-ordination. Failing against the bar,I pushed my way through the crowds. I saw Ais with a hand on the bar and looking rather distracted by a group of ladies dressed in rather revealing outfits.

I chuckled. "What the hell have you been drinking?" He didn't seem very reactant and I figured that he should get home as soon as possible. I noticed a faint stain on his shirt in red mistaking it for blood. Fighting? I thought. Then I realised that it was alcohol. We best get you home,I thought but I was rather tipsy from the several wines I had drank earlier.

Going home , ''That's a fine idea'' I thought with myself , i could barely walk , and i wasn't expecting to get that drunk !! for some reason , i kept drinking constantly . ''Alcohol , is not my thing ... '' i said with myself .
''i should have noticed that my shirt isn't intact anymore'' . '' why am i not surprised ? ''
I didn't know how much was i willing to drink. but i obviously went too far with it .
