Chapter 750: The Wait for the Gates to Open



Mafra Q Hall, Beord Bazaar, Catadrid

Saturday, March 27th, 5:00 PM

Sol, Jade, and Lily had been standing in line outside Mafra Q Hall for hours, their excitement building with each passing minute. They had driven to the venue in Sol's father's car, a small blue sedan that had become their trusted companion for adventures like these. Sol had been the one to volunteer for the drive, knowing that she'd be more relaxed behind the wheel, guiding her friends to their most anticipated event of the year-Moonlight's first live concert. The sun had already begun to lower in the sky, casting a golden hue over the scene, though the air remained cool and pleasant. The beginning of spring meant that the weather was neither too hot nor too cold, making the long wait outside more bearable than any of them had expected. The scent of blossoms floated through the air, mixing with the faint smell of street food from nearby vendors catering to the concert-goers.

The crowd surrounding them was massive. Thousands of people, mostly in their teens, twenties, and thirties had shown up early. Everyone wanted the best spot inside the venue. Though the Mafra Q Hall could hold a staggering 20,000 people, it seemed like every single one of them had the same idea: get there as early as possible, secure the best view, and revel in the once-in-a-lifetime experience of seeing Moonlight perform live.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I can't believe we're finally here," Sol said, her voice tinged with excitement as she adjusted her hoodie and stretched her arms. She was dressed comfortably for the long wait, wearing her favorite Moonlight t-shirt over her hoodie, showing her dedication to the artist.

"I know, right?" Jade grinned, flicking her black hair behind her shoulders. "It feels surreal. We've been talking about this concert for months."

Lily, the more reserved of the trio, nodded with a small smile. "I've had butterflies in my stomach since we left your house," she admitted. "I still can't believe we managed to get the tickets."

The crowd around them buzzed with a similar energy, a mix of chatter, laughter, and the occasional chant of "Moonlight! Moonlight!" rippling through the line. Some fans had even brought portable speakers, playing songs from Moonlight's album to keep spirits high. Others clutched homemade signs or wore custom outfits designed with Moonlight's lyrics printed across them.

The girls exchanged glances, feeling the palpable excitement in the air. They weren't just attending a concert; they were about to become part of an event that people would talk about for years.

"We're not that far from the entrance," Sol noted, peeking over the heads of the fans in front of them. "Do you think we'll get a good spot?"

Jade shrugged, "You're so nervous that you forgot that the seats were already defined when we bought the tickets," Jade giggled.

"Oh, that's true." Sol said as she remembered this fact, "Why did everyone arrive early then?"

"Who knows?" Jade replied, "But I guess just like us, everyone else was too anxious for the concert, so everyone came early."

When the clock hit 6:30 PM, a noticeable ripple went through the crowd. People began

shifting, standing a little straighter, their excitement mounting.

"They're about to open the gates!" someone shouted from the front, and the cheer that followed echoed like a wave through the entire line.

Sol felt her heart race in her chest. "This is it. We're going in."

Jade grabbed her hand, squeezing tightly. "I'm so ready for this."

Lily smiled, though her nerves were obvious. "It's happening. We're really going to see him."

The massive gates of Mafra Q Hall slowly began to swing open, the crowd pushing forward as the line surged with energy. Security guards were stationed at the front, checking tickets and keeping the line orderly, but nothing could dampen the electric atmosphere. People were buzzing with excitement, exchanging high-fives and cheers as they edged closer to the

entrance.

Sol, Jade, and Lily clung to each other as they moved with the crowd, their hearts pounding in sync. The closer they got, the more real it all felt.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity of waiting, they reached the entrance.

"Tickets, please," a security guard said.

With trembling hands, Sol handed over their tickets, her heart in her throat. The guard

scanned them, smiled, and waved them through.

"Enjoy the concert."

And just like that, they were in.
