1. One morning, a regular noticed something peculiar in the pharmacy’s shopping cart area—a small bottle labeled ‘Liquid Courage’ with no price tag or explanation. Curious customers started asking questions, but the staff just shrugged and said it must be for special events. Then one day, a delivery driver joked that maybe it was for emergencies—like when you needed to talk to your boss without sweating. Soon enough, everyone knew not to mention anything important until they’d had their sip from Liquid Courage. The legend ended there, when an old lady bought the last bottle and declared she felt braver than ever.}
