I cycle quietly to Mia's house. It's only half past six when I check my phone. Actually, what I do is not allowed, to be on my phone and cycling at the same time, but I also have to get into the mood with a song that echoes through my ears.

Hmm.. What should I put on, Joost Klein of course.

Fryslân Bop is really my favorite song of his.
I hope he will also sing it on stage tonight, then I'm sure I'll go crazy.

It is just before seven o'clock when I arrive at Mia's house.
I park my bicycle neatly in the front garden, but apparently not neatly enough because it falls over again.
I have also decided to leave my bike behind, because the weekend bag I have over my shoulder is very heavy.

I enthusiastically walk to the RING doorbell and ring the bell. I take my earphones out of my ears and roll them up, then put them in my handbag.
On the other side of the door I hear footsteps and suddenly the door swings open.

Mia swung the door open so hard that it hit the radiator next to it with a loud bang.

"Heyyy darling, you look so hot again!" She says, half shouting, quickly covering her mouth with her hand because the door jumped back and made a lot of noise again.

"Hey honey, how are you?" I hug her and she hugs me back, with one hand because she was holding her cigarette with the other hand. Marlboro Gold of course...

"Okay, come on"
"Oh yes, by the way, you can keep your shoes on, my parents aren't home anyway." Mia chuckled and then took another drag on her cigarette.

"Yes, that's what I thought they weren't home." I laughed along with her.

"What do you mean you thought they weren't home, why?"

"Otherwise you would never walk around the house smoking haha"

"Yes that's true, they would kill me if they knew I did this" She walked towards the couch.

In the meantime, I threw my overnight bag off my shoulder and plopped it down on the floor next to the couch.
I placed my shoulder bag that was hanging on the other side next to it with a little more love.

Mia sat down on the white couch opposite me and said:
"I'm so looking forward to tonight, it's been a really long time since I've been to a concert"

I sat cross-legged on the other couch and sighed with excitement.
"Yes, for me too! But I am also so happy that we are completely committed to it and can almost touch Joost"

"Mara Love, we can even smell him, we can catch his beads of sweat and hear his shoes squeak. WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT!"

"Nothing more, or actually a cigarette from you"
I made a sly gesture next to my ear and started laughing.

Mia took the pack of cigarettes out of her black Juicy Couture vest and threw it towards me.

I caught the package and opened it, as always Mia has her lighter neatly in the package. I take out a cigarette and light it.

"Where can I actually ash?" And I take a hit.

"Oh just on the ground dude." And Mia wipes a hair pluck away what was in front of her eyes.
