Last Ravinia Ticket Finds New Owner

The Last Ravinia Ticket

It was the summer of 2023, and the buzz around Ravinia Festival was electric. The legendary Stevie Wonder was headlining, and tickets had sold out in minutes. Everyone wanted to be there—everyone, including Maya Carter, a struggling jazz musician who idolized Stevie.

Maya had spent weeks refreshing the website, joining waitlists, and even begging scalpers (who were charging outrageous prices). But as a barista living paycheck to paycheck, she couldn’t afford the markup. The night before the concert, she sat in her tiny Chicago apartment, scrolling through resale sites one last time, when she saw it:

'1 Ticket – Lawn Section – Face Value – Must Go Tonight.'

Heart pounding, she messaged the seller. A man named Eli replied instantly: 'Meet me at the Starbucks on Sheridan in 30 minutes. Cash only.'

Maya grabbed her last $80 and rushed out. When she arrived, Eli—a gray-haired man in a faded Stevie Wonder tour shirt—was waiting. He slid the ticket across the table.

'Funny story,' he said. 'I bought this for my wife. We’ve been coming to Ravinia for 40 years. But she passed last month. She’d want someone who truly loves the music to have it.'

Maya’s eyes welled up. 'I—I don’t know what to say.'

Eli smiled. 'Just promise me you’ll sing along to ‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered.’ Loud.'

The next night, under the stars, Maya danced on the lawn, singing every word. And somewhere, she knew Eli’s wife was smiling too.

The end.

(Want a different twist? Maybe a mystery, a romance, or a comedy? Let me know!)
