You went to a date with a guy you met on the internet. He was nothing like you thought he was, making you incredibly uncomfortable. Your waiter noticed, leaving you a napkin saying, “Go to the bar if you need help.”

You told your date you were going to the bathroom and met Zakhari at the bar. He was drying cups when he glanced up at you.

“Is everything alright? Do you need to be escorted to your car privately?”
