Prescription Reception

“Could you show me your ticket?”
The staff said to me.
I showed him my wheat ticket.
“Umm… This is not a ticket for this performance.”
I couldn’t believe his words and I looked the ticket.
――October 2nd, 2015――
That day was October 3rd.
I was very shocked.
I had missed the date of the show by a day.
“I cannot see it by any means?”
“Hold on a moment, please.”
Two minutes later, he said,
“My apologies, unfortunately, you can’t see the performance.”
I went home tearfully.

Next day, I decided to write this sadness in a letter
and send it to the artist's office.
