After getting off my train I quickly dash my way to Madison Square Garden, the bitter winter air hitting my face as I run towards the train station exit.
"Please please please please..."
I silently pray under my breath, hoping there's not a line there.
I reach the sign of Madison Square Garden as I push through the crowd of slow walking people
I reach the front of Madison Square and see no line, I quickly go to the worker who's in the ticket booth, putting my hood on so nobody recognizes me.
"One ticket for Michael Jackson's concert please! VIP and I want front row seats!"
I never talked so fast, considering I just ran for my life and I'm already out of breath as it is.
The middle aged lady looked at me like I was some crazy person asking for both front row seats, AND a VIP backstage pass.
"Listen lady.. Michael is a close friend of mine, I need to see him again."
The lady let out a little chuckle, clearly doubting me.
This bitch is laughing at me...!
"I doubt he's a friend of yours, that's what all crazed fans of Jacko say.. besides why would-"
I interrupt the lady, starting to feel angry as I slam my hands on the freezing counter
"How..much.."
I look up angrily at the startled woman
"$350.79.."
I put three 100 dollar bills, and two 30 dollar bills on the counter and the lady takes it, counting it and then giving me my backstage pass and my ticket.
I take them and put them in my wallet, then put my wallet in my front jean pocket.
"Keep the change.."
I laugh as the lady looks at me surprised from pulling $350 dollars out of my pocket like that.
I laugh as I walk away, then do a little victory dance when I get away from the booth.
Now to get home..
My phone rings, it's some number with no ID..
I stand there in the middle of the sidewalk, ignoring the people who are telling me to move out of the way.
I dunno if I should answer it..
Hm..
Nah, it's probably one of those scammers who are trying to take my hard earned money.. if it was important, they'd leave a voice mail on my answering machine back at home.
I shake my head and head towards the train station..
Time to go home.
