As the final schoolbell rang for the day, Akirose hurriedly bounded out of the schoolhouse, as eager for the weekend as her students. She loved being a teacher immensely, but to say she had been looking forward to Friday night had been an understatement. The warm Costa Rican breeze carried the scent of blooming jasmine as she made her way home.

Akirose's boyfriend had broken up with her earlier that week, through text no less! The memory still stung like a mosquito bite she couldn't scratch. The sun dipped toward the horizon, painting the sky in vibrant oranges and pinks as she changed into her favorite dress.

With newfound determination, Aki set off downtown in search of a new man she could call her boyfriend. The town was full of good-looking men, and with peak tourist season in full swing, there were all kinds of handsome foreigners exploring Costa Rica's beauty. Anyone to take Akirose drinking and dancing would be a welcome distraction from her recent heartache.

Stepping out of the warm, breezy, sunlit day and into a bar with open doors and windows, Akirose scanned the faces inside. The establishment wasn't full, but it was getting there as the weekend approached. There were a number of cute guys already there, their conversations mixing with the soft Latin music playing in the background.

Picking one at random, Akirose confidently walked up to him, her long skirt swaying gently with her hips, and a sweet smile adorning her eager lips.

"Hola, guapetón!" she greeted. "No te había visto antes por aquí. ¿De dónde eres?"
