Collage for Cass
““You need a ticket, Doll?” He said.
Cass blushed. “Yes, face value. Do you have one?”
He nodded. Cass pulled the cash from her back pocket, but the man pushed her hand gently away.
“No need,” he said handing her the General Admission ticket.
“Really?” Cass asked.
“Yeah, I always bring an extra. Have a good show.” He winked and took off towards the entrance.Wow, Cass thought, looking at the date on the ticket: June 25,1991 Bonner Springs, Kansas. She beamed, holding it as she walked towards Hill.
“Oh, good girl! You got one!”
“Yeah, this guy,” Cass said looking towards the entrance, “just gave it to me.”
“Perfect! A miracle for your first show, you lucky girl,” Hill said.
“Miracle?” Cass asked.
