I will never forget the day of the Buono! concert in Paris....
Not only have I met wonderful fans from this forum, been to an amazing concert and made new friends, no, I also met my idol in person.
I had never realized just how stunning and beautiful and shining she really was until she stepped out of that white van right after Airi, only 2 metres away from me, smiling and waving at me. I didn't even realize there was a guard preventing me from running up to her, as I was frozen on the spot. That moment lasted no longe than a second, but my world had stopped for an instant. I had in no way expected to be this close to her before the signing session, and heart has never raced like that before - not even for any guy I'd been in love with until now (I do hope that will change though...)
Throughout the concert she as well as her Buono! comrades were so radiant and shining, and whenever my hoarse voice would allow it I would chant her name like a magic spell, waving at her with all my might - and the magic worked, she noticed me, making me addicted to her attention.
Before that day, I had dreamed that just seeing her performing and cheering for her in a seat no matter how far from her would have been enough - I was so wrong. And yet I got so much more than I ever expected - not only did she sign my poster, she had recognized my face from the concert, and bothered to tell me so! I was able to tell her half of what I'd always wanted to say to her (without any hopes of actually doing so), but she'd given me so much more already. Remembering me, smiling at me, and stretching out both hands for a handshake... she made me feel like the most important person in the universe just by paying a little attention to me. I know others asked her to write their names and one person got a hug, but for me, I received the greatest gift I could've ever received - although it left me greedy for more...
When they left the concert venue, I was able to make eye contact with her twice more, and yet again she waved and smiled at me. The dreamy part of me believes she actually recognized me and deliberately looked at me that second time from the van. I prefer to believe that version, although my realistic side won't really let me.
She's given me so much happiness... Miyabi.
