THE SATURDAY NIGHT CONCERT

Saturday night had finally arrived. Excitement filled the air in Kinshasa. The stadium was packed with thousands of fans, all eagerly waiting for one of the biggest concerts of the year. Spotlights illuminated the massive stage, giant screens displayed live footage, and the atmosphere buzzed with anticipation.

Backstage, the artists were getting ready. Dylan, Thomas, and Jasper stood prepared to set the stage on fire with their performance. They had no idea that Diana was there, in the same stadium, just a few meters away from them.

Madame Plam's was making sure everything was running smoothly. She walked through the dressing rooms, giving words of encouragement to each performer before they went on stage.

— "Tonight is your night. Give it everything you've got!" she said, patting Dylan on the shoulder.

He nodded with a determined smile.

— "We're gonna kill it," Jasper added enthusiastically.

The countdown had begun.

A Triumphant Entrance

The crowd roared as the stadium lights dimmed. A hushed anticipation filled the air, then a powerful bass beat echoed, vibrating through the entire stadium.

The giant screens showed a silhouette walking slowly into the spotlight. It was Dylan. He gripped his microphone firmly, ready to mesmerize the audience.

— "Good evening, Kinshasa!" he called out loudly.

The crowd erupted into deafening cheers.

Behind him, Thomas and Jasper took their positions, joined by a team of skilled dancers. The music kicked in—fast, rhythmic, and electrifying. The concert began with an explosion of energy.

Dylan and his friends had rehearsed an impeccable set: vocals, synchronized choreography, and stunning solos. Their performance was magnetic. The audience danced and sang along, lighting up the night with their glowing phone screens.

Backstage, Diana watched the performance on a monitor. She was impressed by their stage presence. There was something oddly familiar about them… but she couldn't place it.

An Unforgettable Performance

After several high-energy songs, Dylan took a moment to speak to the crowd.

— "I want to thank every single one of you for being here tonight. You are incredible! This concert is a dream come true. So let's keep dreaming together, alright?"

The entire stadium screamed in response.

The group continued with a slower, more emotional song, a heartfelt ballad that touched the audience deeply. Couples held hands, some fans wiped away tears. The emotion was tangible.

Diana, who was getting ready for her own performance, felt an odd sense of nostalgia listening to the melody. She closed her eyes for a moment. Why did this song feel so familiar?

She shook off the feeling and focused on her own performance.

Diana's Grand Finale

After several other artists had performed, it was time for Diana to close the concert.

The crowd was already electrified after Dylan and his friends' performances, but when Diana stepped onto the stage, the energy in the stadium surged to a whole new level.

Dressed in a dazzling gown, she walked across the stage with effortless grace. The golden stage lights made her appear almost ethereal.

— "Good evening, Kinshasa!" she called out, and the audience responded with a deafening wave of cheers.

She opened with an upbeat song, full of energy, accompanied by a breathtaking dance routine. Her charisma was undeniable. She commanded the stage, captivating the audience with her mesmerizing voice and presence.

Backstage, Dylan watched her performance on a monitor. Something stirred inside him as he listened to her voice.

— "She's amazing," Jasper commented.

Dylan didn't respond. There was something about her voice that felt strangely familiar… but he couldn't figure out why.

On stage, Diana transitioned into an even more powerful song. The crowd danced, singing along with her, carried by the infectious energy she radiated. She was closing the concert with a spectacular finale of sound and lights.

The audience went wild.

The Missed Encounter

As the final note echoed through the stadium, the crowd erupted into a standing ovation. Diana took a deep bow, her heart pounding, proud of her performance.

Backstage, the artists congratulated each other. Dylan, Thomas, and Jasper were discussing the concert's highlights.

Diana passed by them, surrounded by her team. For a brief moment, Dylan and Diana were just a few meters apart…

But neither of them recognized the other.

Fate had brought them together on the same stage, under the same lights… but their memories had yet to awaken.

It was only a matter of time before the truth came to light.
