Girl In The Crowd

Chapter 12 | N o w I H a v e N a m e

The last few days have been a blast! I'm home, surrounded by people I love.

This is the best feeling ever.

My mom and sister came to all of my shows.

Tonight is the last one so I feel like singing something to my sister.

She's been an inspiration to me. She was the one to 'introduce' me to London, and it's only right if I thank her the way I know the best - singing.

Oh, I almost forgot I talked to HER for the first time!

On the second night here in Wembley - June 14th - was her birthday and her friend made a sign.

Her name is Marta, she's so cute and shy. And I also noticed an accent, but I can't quite figure it out from where!

Now I have a name.

You can call me crazy, but I have a crush on her, and after talking to her made me want to get to know her.

She is so simple, so normal.

She is what I need to make my life less chaotic. Or so I think.

All of the nights here in London I wore a jumpsuit with a shirt underneath. But today I'm feeling bold, so no shirt.

I'm on stage, about to sing Sweet Creature to my sister.

I began my speech by saying that she was the one to bring me here for the first time.

"I'd like to play a song for her tonight, we haven't played this one in a while"

And the first chords start playing as the crowd cheers.

As the first chords of Sweet Creature start playing my eyes instantly fill with tears.

The speech and the song are too much.

I never heard this song live and being here with my new family of friends, in a place where we are our best versions is so beautiful.

This will be for sure one of the happiest memories of my life!

Is the day after the last concert and as I walk in London to one of my favorite coffee shops I'm stopped by a fan.

"Hi I'm so sorry to interrupt you, I just want to say 'thank you for what you do for us' and if it's not too much to ask, could I get a picture?"

"Hi, it's so nice to meet you. We met before, didn't we?"

"Kinda, I was the one that held the sign for you to sing happy birthday to my best friend"

"Oh! Yeah yeah, what's your name again "

"Jules" we take a quick photo and I keep on walking.

With the thought of Marta in my head, even when I met her friend instead.

Damn, the destiny.
