The clean up crew is sweeping. A flyer blows by. A sadness creeps over the landscape. The road trip is over. The fans, still anxiously waiting outside in long lines, in hopes of getting a glimpse of their idols, have not given up hope yet. They don’t know it, but the busses are gone. Steadfastly, they cling to the idea of a picture. An autograph. A conversation. A moment. Something to take home with them. They want to remember this day. They want to have something to tell their kids when they’re old. After all, this has changed their lives for keeps. Not a fleeting thrill, but an inspiring event that they can keep in their hearts forever. Over flowing with idol love, they gather their dreams and try to hold on forever.
With tight anticipation they watch as the guard approaches. Then their heads fall into their hands when they hear, ” Sorry kids, the idols are gone now, you can all go home.”
Eventually, one of them turns and walks away, then slowly, one by one, the others follow.
