Chapter 609: Drinks for the ladies
[Crimson Bar]
"Hah!" Penny let out a deep exhale, leaning against the bar counter in exhaustion. She glanced at the bartender, smiling wearily as she ordered a glass of water. "I need a drink that will hydrate me, not the other way around."
The bartender chuckled at how exhausted she looked, serving her a glass of water since it seemed she desperately needed it. Penny chugged it down in one go, hissing in satisfaction.
"Ah, goodness," she breathed out, casting the bartender a smile. "Thank you."
"Do you need another glass?"
"Yes, please." Penny slid the empty glass back to him, which the bartender took and placed somewhere else, getting her another glass and filling it with water. This time, Penny simply took a few mouthfuls, now satisfied and her thirst quenched.
"Goodness," another remark escaped her mouth, looking back at the dance floor with exhaustion. "Aren’t they tired yet?"
Her friends had been dancing nonstop while drinking alcoholic beverages at the same time. It was crazy that they had so much energy when Penny was the only one who hadn’t had a drink.
"Even Nina is getting a lot more drunk," she whispered, seeing that Nina started to act less restrained. "Look at her."
The corners of Penny’s lips hooked up, like a mother proud of her child. For a second, she felt like Jessa, who wanted her girls to have fun and let loose. After all, Jessa often said they should all enjoy their youth, date as many men as they could, and use their bodies to their full extent. The last two were unnecessary, and Penny just disregarded it.
