April 2023

          Avery shuts her alarm off and pulls herself out of bed to get a shower before heading to work. Ugh, five in the morning came too soon, she thinks as if she fell asleep at a normal time instead of around 1:30, less than four hours prior. She washes her hair twice before putting some conditioner in to sit while she washes her body. After the suds run down from her body, she stands there for a couple minutes trying to prepare herself for the morning shift. As much as she despises waking up early, she'll gladly take opening shifts over closing shifts. She rinses the conditioner out and shuts the water off, stepping out of the shower and proceeding to dry herself off with a towel. After blow drying her hair, she steps back into her bedroom to do her get dressed. Putting on some plain black skinny jeans on with her uniform, she then throws her hair up into a claw clip and grabs a mismatched pair of socks from her drawer.

          She slips on her socks along with the same old pair of black sneakers and grabs her work visor as the last thing she needs before heading to work. Making sure to lock her door behind her, she also slips in an air pod to listen to music before beginning her walk to work.

          "Hi, welcome in! You want your usual today, Mrs. Lorth?" Avery asks the older woman.

          "Good morning, Ms. Avery! Yes, that would great thank you," Mrs. Lorth replies.

          Avery begins making the sweet regular's order. A large decaf coffee with some milk and no more two packets of sugar, making sure it's all stirred together and the sugar is dissolved.

          "Anything new since last week, sweetie?" she asks Avery.

          "Nothing besides more concerts being announced," Avery replies with a chuckle.

          "Live your life sweetheart, you're only 24! As long as you get your bills paid and have food to eat go do what brings you joy. Never mind what others might tell you. I'm sure most of us old people did similar things while we were young," Mrs. Lorth tells the young girl sincerely.

          Avery just replies with a grin on her face as she wishes Mrs. Lorth to have a good day. The rest of her shift goes by fine. Of course, there's some bitchy customers here and there with a rush, but nothing she hasn't dealt with on previous shifts. The clock hits one pm right as Avery clocks out. Once she gets home, she makes herself a cup of hot chocolate and while she waits for it to cool down, she gets a notification.

          She immediately clicks it and sees they've announced another tour, CONCRETE FOREVER, and begins scanning the dates to see what cities they're going to. Her eyes goes wide while she jolts up when she sees Pittsburgh, PA as one of the dates. She immediately makes sure she's signed up for the presale and messages a couple of her online friends back as they've already began blowing up her phone.

          Avery had met Sara and Riya on Twitter and instantly became a trio. Over the several months of their friendship Avery found out Sara lived a little bit outside of Detroit while Riya had lived just outside of Philly. They didn't live too far from one another, even then Avery lived practically in the middle of the other two, but unfortunately between Sara still being in college and Riya not having the most reliable car or the funds to travel the three never had met up before.

          Avery giggles to herself at her friends' text messages. They know this band has been the sole reason she's been able to save any money at all considering how impulsive she is when it comes to concerts. She spends the rest of her night making herself dinner and thinking of possible outfits she could wear to the concerts that haven't even gone on sale yet. She comes up with a couple ideas, but plans to go shopping sometime before just incase she's able to find something better. Before she falls asleep, she checks what other cities the band's going to be at and decides she wants to try and get tickets for the Columbus, Philly, and Silver Spring shows as well.
