Homecoming Part 1

Oct. 02/10

The night of the great Deadmau5 concert; highly anticipated, awaited, and dreamt about by ten's of thousands throughout London-town.

I was going. I had purchased 2 tickets, for 75$ each, in hopes of either helping a friend out, or, selling to the highest bidder...
That was my plan.

Now, this is what actually happened.

Oct. 1st/10:

Just before heading out the door to work, I get the news that buddy has a friend selling MacBook Pro's for 750$, basically, half price.
"The quantity is shrinking, and they're going like Hot cakes.. get it.."
I didn't get it, oh wait.. yeah.~
"That's sick, but, I don't think I've got the money for that right now, as awesome as it is.."
"Just go pull out as much as you can," buddy says "and we'll see about the rest"
Didn't have the care, or real desire to.. I had to go.

Work:
Get a text from buddy again saying:
Hey other buddy decided to lend me the remaining amount for you to grab a MacBook; I'll meet you on break, and you just pay the difference."
I was mixed on this,, pissed, and.. somewhat Glad: I owned a MacBook! at least partially...

Went home after work; Veronick asked what I was up to; "Not much, you?" was my response.
"You should come out; we'll get wasted!"
"Sure." was the best answer I could some up.
Headed off to the shower, get changed, and head on over to Richmond & Kent as soon as I could.

I was in such a hurry to head over (as I was already 15mins late) I almost toy'd with the idea of Cabbing it over... but no~ the laptop sucked me dry like a Catholic priest on son-day.

I went out, headed down the street; saw Veronick's building in the near, well-lit distance.
I arrived, walked to the door, and a cab pulled about about 30 seconds later; the only passenger was a girl, a young girl, who caught my eye, when I caught hers.. briefly.. didn't want to be rude.

She stepped out, and walked inside. I texted Veronick, and threw one or two Half-second glances her way. She walked inside, and Veronick told me over the phone brashly: 807!

I walked in; caught the Eli up to the 8th, hopped off, and turned around.
There in the lobby stood a walk-wasted Veronick, and when she saw me, she yelled out: "There's my buddy Dan!"
I shifted my head, (my eyes to be more precise..) and there at her right hand stood the girl from the Taxi cab, looking over with a relieved smile.
"We've met.. downstairs"
