After a long day at work, James sits at his regular bar, seeking comfort in a drink. When he notices an unfamiliar face across the room, something stirs within him, prompting him to break his usual routine and initiate a conversation that could change the course of his evening.

James looks around, still feeling the weight of the workday lingering. He finishes his drink quickly and signals the bartender for another. His attention is drawn to a new face across the room. With a hesitant smile, he gestures to the bartender and points toward the woman, indicating he'd like to buy her drink as well. After receiving his new drink, he approaches her table. "Hey, I never saw you before. What's your name?"
