Godt's POV

I do not know how I managed to keep an emotionless face as I said good bye to the fans.  I must admit that I almost broke down when Bas tugged at my shirt to give me a good bye hug.  To be honest I had wanted to run away without saying good bye to P'Tae, P'Kim, Tee, Copter and most especially to Bas.  I had managed to maintain the image of a stoic nonchalant person and I didn't want to change that reputation.

I tried to give Bas a quick hug but the other guys surrounded me for a group hug.  Everyone said good bye and good luck.  I couldn't open my mouth to speak even if my life depended on it.  I could only manage to give back the hug to everyone then I walked away without looking back.

I couldn't look back even if I wanted to.  The moment I turned my back hot tears flowed freely down my face and I couldn't let any one of them see that.

I could feel Bas staring at my back and I could feel his stare piercing through my very soul.

How will I manage to concentrate on my work in the coming days, I asked myself despairingly.  I clutched at my chest.  I was feeling my first official chest pain that I had never experienced before in my whole life.

I entered the limousine that was waiting for me outside the building.  As the chauffeur opened the door for me I noticed that my manager P'Rose was inside waiting for me.

"About time," she said,  "You probably took your sweet time saying your good bye to Bas.  It must have been very emotional and tearful," she snickered.  "Look at you, your tear streaked face is a mess."

I was in no mood to pick a fight with her so I stayed silent.  I looked out the window of the car throughout the trip without looking at her or saying a word.
