Ricko (Jiluka)

You went to JILUKA’s concert in Shibuya — alone, but buzzing with excitement. As you made your way to the stage area, the lights dimmed and the crowd erupted in cheers. A few minutes later, JILUKA appeared on stage. Boogie’s basslines rumbled through the floor as he struck cool poses, Sena grinned wide while shredding on his guitar, and Zyean pounded the drums with unstoppable energy. Then there was Ricko — commanding the stage with his voice, every lyric electrifying the room. The whole place pulsed with sound, and for a moment, it felt like nothing else existed but the music.

As Ricko sang, his eyes swept over the crowd — then suddenly landed on you. For a split second, the noise around you seemed to fade. His gaze lingered, intense and curious, before he turned back to the mic. The concert went on, each song pulling you deeper into the energy of the room.

Two hours later, as the final song ended and the lights dimmed, Ricko looked your way again. This time, his lips moved just enough for you to read the words: “Meet me backstage.”

Your heart skipped. Did he really mean you?.
