Dialogue at the drinking table

Việt Văn |

On a weekend afternoon, two young men sat opposite each other in a small shop with a few bottles of cold beer and a few simple bowls of food. The sound of the glass clap rang out, mixed with the laughter of the drinking party. Do you think drinking is also a glue? said the fat-faced guy. There are normal people who are fat-faced and quiet, but when they raise their glass and sit at the drinking table, they gradually start to express themselves. Like that Mr. N, who worked at the same agency for several months and did not want to talk to anyone, thanks to the drinking party to celebrate his boss's birthday yesterday, it turned out to be a bit of a coincidence."

The bearded friend laughed at each other: "Oh, it's a real connection. But you think, sometimes people need enzyme to dare to say the truth, which also means that when they are up, they hide themselves carefully and are not sure to be sincere. Not to mention the old saying: Friendship breaks down quickly with a cup of tea, a cup of wine, a cup of tea!".

The man with a round face said: "Ui, you keep talking about big things, not many friends are just diplomats. In fact, drinking is to kill time but mainly helps people relieve the sticky rice. Now life is stressful, on weekends gather with a few friends, make a few bottles, sky-high, how happy is that?

The bearded man nodded: "Squeeze the money that no one wants. But many people turn it into a habit, into an addiction. Without fermentation, I can't stand it. Not to mention that sometimes they are drunk to forget reality, to avoid facing themselves.

He smiled round: "You can philosophize anytime. In fact, drinking is a waste of money for many people, but for some big people, it is a business. If there were no drinking parties, many deals, many work relationships, they might not have succeeded. My brother and I have not known to drink for a lifetime, so we have had many broken cases in a row because we are not allowed to drink together. People think it is not genuine.

At that moment, the waitress brought out an additional plate of tofu with green onions. The round face suddenly spoke up, his voice became darker: "Maybe you're right, beer and wine are not everything. Some people need it to open their hearts, some use it as a tool and some turn it into an outlet.

But in the end, real dialogues, strong relationships, cannot be determined only by alcohol. It's just a catalyst, but glue is actually sincerity and trust. Without those things, no matter how many times we sit together, the relationship is just an illusion at a drinking table, dissolved when separated". The bearded man laughed: "This time you are more philosophical than me. But stop drinking this bottle, save your energy so you can go to work tomorrow".
