Downgrading Miss CEO novel Chapter 9

From behind me, I could hear a deep sigh and a glass being placed on the bar. "Just sit down and enjoy your drink." Too frustrated with life in general, I didn't bother to comment on his customer service and turned on my heels, taking a seat by the bar. I looked over to the drink placed in front of me, genuinely happy about the fact no one, but two shots of tequila were waiting for me to be slammed down my throat. And that's exactly what I was doing.

I took my wallet from my bag, taking out a one-hundred-dollar bill and slamming it on the counter. "Keep them coming, please."

Luckily, the guy from behind the bar complied with my request, without any questions or comments. An hour, and plenty of shots of tequila later, the bar was empty except for me and the bartender. I stood up from my barstool or at least attempted to it as I immediately fell to the ground. The entire bar was spinning, and I felt and suddenly everything around me was black.

I was woken up by a splash of water hitting my face. "Wake up, sunshine!" a voice boomed from above me. I slowly opened my eyes and I felt extremely disorientated and intoxicated. "I don't know, nor do I care, what your problem is, but you sure can't stay here. So, take a cab home or call your daddy to pick you up, but you need to leave, now."

"What a sourpuss!" I thought to myself but got up from the floor anyways. I took my purse and stumbled to the door. "Like hell, I will call that ass of a man. I will walk home!" I said before I walked out and slammed the door closed.

The next morning, I woke up with a giant headache. Thank the Lord that today was a Sunday and I didn't have to go to the office. I squinted my eyes to block out the sun while reaching out for my phone to look at my notifications. I wasn't surprised to see six missed calls from my mom and a couple from Ava. They must have been worried sick about me after my heated argument with my dad. Remembering what happened last night, I reached my hand to lightly touch my cheek. It sure felt sore and a little swollen, but that was all.
