A Summer to Remember

I didn’t quite have the best summer, so I’d rather tell about my ‘dream’ summer.

I finally arrived in Indiana Polis. I was going to a trip there, where my uncle and his wife lives with their 2 children. But that’s not the reason I went there - I was finally meeting my idol - Shawn Mendes. I won a competition, and the prize was - an interview with THE Shawn Mendes. I smiled at the thought of it. I was so excited it was indescribable. I practiced what I was going to say. You don’t want to look like a loser or a freak, you know.

I spotted my uncle, and rushed and pushed myself through all these people practically walking like Usain Bolt, despite the fact that I looked like a hyena, because I was tired and exhausted as hell. It was like around 3 in the morning. “Hi”, my uncle hugged me. I didn’t really say anything, I was too tired. “Are you tired? Let’s get you home quick and get you some sleep”, he said. He grabbed my suitcase and then we left the airport.

16 hours later

I was on my way to the concert, finally meeting my idol. I was nervous as heck. I had put on the prettiest outfit, I owned - sprayed some perfume on, I just bought, curled my hair into some beach waves and only wore a bit of makeup, I didn’t want to look like, I was trying too hard. “Are you nervous?” my aunt asked. She was the one who drove me to the concert. “Yeah… Really much”. “Don’t worry, I know he’s gonna like you. I mean, look at you, you’ve grown so much and you’re such a beautiful girl”. I smiled. She was so sweet.
