Julie said it. Finally. As her birthday approached, her anxiety grew, and she had to let it all out. The mere thought of spending yet another day with it stuck in her throat made her dizzy, so tired she was of pretending.

Julie said it. Finally. She loved someone, yes, but it wasn't Erik. And his face contorted in anguish, because it was impossible, no, it couldn't be. A hand reached hers, but afraid to give him false hopes, she slipped it away.

Forget that man, he pleaded. I'll do anything, he cried. Just pretend I'm the person you like.

They decide to keep a low profile, at least for a while. Behind four walls, they are safe.

As Kurt's fame grows, he and Paul move in together. The master and the student who is close to matching him, it's strange to the rest of the world, but the explanation must be simple. Both are respectful gentlemen, it's nothing scandalous, and to think so would be far-fetched. Society's ignorance is their bliss.

Time passes, and their happiness grows. It's the least they can ask for. Any future hardships are nothing, for they shall be together until the very end.

"You booked the wrong guy!"

"What do you mean 'wrong guy'? You asked for Paul whatshisname and I got him. I don't see any issue."

"Look here, I wanted a very specific Paul. A pianist. This Paul is a violinist and he's been circling the bloody piano as if the devil is going to jump out of it! And I don't understand a word he says! So, there's your issue, young man. Now go buy some cigarettes to calm that man down."




"Strange, Yvonne. I thought I was going to be invited to perform at that event. Very strange, indeed."
