Tristan's Bar

            " What am i doing here ? " Tristan whispers by himself. He is in a party and he knows a lot of people in the party. But, he doesn't want to be there. People surround him and everyone dance. He sits silently. If he knew how to dance, he could dance. But, he doesn't know. Also, he doesn't want to learn how to dance.
           
            He just watches around. Walls are painted black and there are lots of mirrors on the walls. There are many empty glass on the tables. Cigarette smoke hurts his eyes. He gets up and goes to toilet. Toilet is full. He goes to other downstairs. He sees the people he know here as well. One of them calls him. But, Tristan acts like he didn't hear him and keeps on walking. He finally goes in a toilet. Urinals are broken. Mirror is broken as well. He is washing his face, especially his eyes because his eyes still aches. He looks around. There isn't any paper towel.
           
            He looks at the mirror and sees himself. He has blue eyes, brown hair and more dark beard than his hair. " My appearance is not bad. Moreover, it's pretty good " He thinks. Then, smell there disturbs him and he leaves the toilet.

            The music is turned up and people dance madlier now. He decides to take one more drink and walks to the bar. " Hey ! Bartender, give me the strongest shot you have " Tristan says.  He drinks the shot and pays the five dollars for it and gives tip to bartender.

            There is a big mirror opposite him and he looks at himself in the mirror. The person he sees in the mirror takes off his jacket and walks into crowd. He starts dancing and acts unlike Tristan.
Tristan is in shock and he doesn't move. He just watches himself dancing in the mirror. " Is it me ? Do i know him ? " Tristan thinks. He looks quite confused now.

            He keeps on looking at the mirror until a blonde girl who wears a red mini skirt, black hills and a black blouse touches his shoulder. When he looks behind to see who touched him, he sees her eyes at the first sight and he is impressed. She has blue eyes and dark make up. She sits the bar chair by him and says " One more shot ? ". Tristan smiles and says " Okey. But, if you let me order a coctail to you. ". She smiles, too and accepts the deal. Bartender prepares the shots and serves them. They drinks the shots.

            Tristan tells bartender to prepare best coctail and looks at the people who dance. But, he can't see his twin in the mirror. He thinks that it was a hallucination that occured just in his mind becuse of too much alcohol. Bartender gives the girl her coctail. She says " Tell me about yourself "
Then, he says " I was born, i grew up and i'm here now. " and he winks to her. " I'm still here " she says and they laugh. He realizes that he doesn't know her name and asks " what's your name ? ".   " It's jenny, how about yours ? " She says. "It's Tristan. Also, Tristan was one of the kinghts of the king Arthur. ".

            The music changes and she mounts the bar and starts dancing. Other girls start dancing above the bar, too. Tristan sees his twin in the mirror again.  Although he doesn't smoke, twin who reflect to the mirror smokes, smiles at him and makes shush sign.
            Tristan closes his eyes and when he opens them, the twin isn't there. Something like this happened for the first time. Moreover, twice a day. In the meantime, Jenny gets down and sits by him again. Tristan seems thoughtful. He trys to understand what happened to himself and  why he saw something like that.

            Jenny holds his collar, pulls him to herself and kisses him. Then, she writes her number on his hand. " I expect you to call me " She says and leaves the bar. Tristan notes down her number to his phone and wants a serviette from bartender.  He cleans Jenny's lip print on his lips.

            He goes to toilet and washes the number in his hand. When he looks at the mirror, the twin in the mirror appears one more time, winks to Tristan and says " Good for you ".
