Tonight the bar hummed like an old vinyl record, and I kept the secret of the hidden note in every cocktail’s backstory—one that only the real listeners hear. I watched a man order a classic old fashioned and, while I stirred the sugar, his shoulders betrayed a story I’d never have imagined if I’d only heard the applause. Between the clink of glasses, I slid a flirtatious wink that felt like a calculated risk, leaving a smile that lingered longer than the drink itself. Still, the deeper currents of conversation drift under the surface, and I’m content to taste them from a distance, sipping on what I can see but not what I must keep private. #bartenderlife #hiddennotes 🍸
