The Plan

820 Words
I am not sure how long I sat there before coming back to my senses. I ordered tea and some pastries and had them to go. Walking to the hotel, I was only slightly aware of what was happening around me. Which was definitely not a good thing. I made it to my room and called my friend again. "I still can't believe that happened. I actually met him in person and not at one of his shows." "I am very happy for you. Based on your excitement level, it was better than you imagined." "Yes, he was so caring and gentle. As soon as I return home I am going to plan for a vacation and ensure I get a ticket to his next show." "You can definitely get the time right, you haven't taken a vacation in a while." "Yes, I have at least 2 weeks saved up. I would take a week, so I could try doing some shopping that week." "Good for you. I am so happy you got to meet your crush." "Ikr, it still feels surreal. I'm going to shower and rest. Talk to you later." "Later" I showered and reviewed my notes for the next day. I also felt myself smiling the entire time. That night I had a dream about him. It made me smile when I woke up because I remembered the feeling of meeting him. That morning, while I prepared for work, I called my mom and let her know how I was doing. I also sent a text in my family chat to keep my siblings updated. I went to work and had another smooth day. I was still living on the high of having met him. I finished my work, finished all my meetings and made sure all my reports were sent before it was time to leave. I was back home and I had a lot to do before my vacation. Because I did so well on this project, when I asked for a 1-week vacation I was given it. I was so happy I had traveled because my passport and visa were up-to-date. I made sure I found a reasonable hotel and booked the room in advance. I made sure I set an alert to make sure once the tickets for his final US concert were on sale I could get a good ticket. I had to plan my outfit for the concert and for the photo session. I at least hope there will be a photo session for the final concert. I started planning what I would carry that week. I was going shopping, so I would not carry a lot of clothes. I chose a good pair of jeans and some t-shirts. I found a good hotel that was walking distance to the concert hall and booked a room. I have been practicing knitting, but I was not at a level to make my own clothes. I have a specific idea about what I wanted. I found someone online who did quality knitting and commissioned a piece. She promised it would be available before I needed to leave. The outfit would use elements of his album, mixing his two main colors. Making use of the duality he has created. I also started to practice my make-up. I was not going to go heavy with make-up because I felt I would be annoyed with heavy make-up. I booked my flight and my return ticket. I had everything prepared well in advance. The week leading up to my departure was filled with nerves. I felt like I was living on pins and needles all day and I had a very excited energy around me. The day of my flight, my sister took me to the airport. Of course, I was there well ahead of my flight. My mom was with me, and she had loaded my bag with food to drop off with my family. I had zero plans to do that, but I could not say no to her. In the end, I changed my flight to suit what she wanted. I had enough time anyway. I changed my flight route to NY and then to LA. I never imagined at the time the change would affect me as well. I was not on social media a lot and had no idea where he was this time, so meeting him a second time was an even better surprise than before. I boarded my flight and got comfortable for the 4-hour flight. Landing actually jolted me out of my sleep. I never imagined I would sleep for the entire flight. After landing and going through the process of checking out. I had to wait for my Aunt. She was collecting all the food that my mom sent. She was always punctual and she timed my flight perfectly and collected everything in time for my connecting flight.
