It was the night of KAZZMAGAZINE AWARDS OF THE YEAR 24'.  Pavel and Fourth had to take the lead in handling the all the GMMTV artists in the backstage while the other managers were busy setting up the area , checking the sounds and mics.

Pavel saw how Pooh was dozing off a little because the past week had been tiring for both of them due to 24/7 busy schedules.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The backstage area is crowded with artists, their entourages, and crew members. There's a palpable buzz in the air as everyone prepares for the big night. The clinking of makeup brushes, the rustling of glamorous outfits, and the occasional cheer from the audience seep through the walls.

Pavel as usual is  multitasking furiously. They weave through the crowd, barking orders, soothing frayed nerves, and checking last-minute details. The manager's phone buzzes constantly with calls and messages, adding to the frenetic pace.

Pavel(to a makeup artist) Make sure Namtan's ready in five! She's on after the next presenter.

Pond (30s, a dancer in a glittering outfit) rushes up to the manager, looking panicked. My costume is missing a piece! I can't go out like this! P' Pavel!

 Okay, breathe. Check with wardrobe, they'll fix it. (into headset) Lighting for the next act needs adjustment, get on it! C'mon!!!, said Pavel.

Nunew(20s, a nervous newcomer) tentatively approaches, holding a guitar.

 Um, excuse me, Phi' I think my mic isn't working properly...

Pavel (quickly checking the schedule) Right, sound check crew is on the left. Tell them I sent you.

Suddenly, the Pavel's phone rings. They glance at the caller ID - it's an important call.

Pavel(into phone) Yes? No, we can't move the performance order. Ai, Fourth ! Get the pyrotechnics team ready for the finale. And remind the host about the change in script.

Where is this damn host !! ARghh this shit is driving me nuts !!! He saw their host was chatting with a producer. Are you kidding me right now ? , Pavel mumbles to himself.

Pavel(rushing over) Hey, don't forget, you've got a shout-out for the charity just before the closing act.

HOST (smiling) Got it. You're doing great, keep it up!, Beautiful ~

 Beautiful my ass ! ARGH !! if i could pull my hair right now !!! 

With a tight-lipped smile, the MANAGER nods and rushes back to their next task. As they pass by a mirror, they catch a glimpse of themselves and quickly straighten their tie before diving back into the fray.

Pavel (into headset, more calmly now) Alright team, let's keep this smooth. Everyone in position, we're live in ten!

Pavel let out a long sigh , almost sweating from running here and there . He didn't hate this job until today . When he was about to leave he was pulled in by someone.

WHAT THE FUCK YOU WA- .. oh.. y-you.. i'm sorry ! Pavel said trying to calm down , as Pooh was staring at him.

Is everything all right ? you seem stressed out ! 

I am stressed out.

EVERYONE BE READY ON YOUR POSITIONS , he talked to his headset again.

Listen to me ... you should need some rest !

ya, i'm trying to balance everything here , no rest for me ! Pavel said glaring at Pooh

Don't be stubborn !!! Pooh shouted at Pavel.

YA ! HOW DARE YOU TO SHOUT AT ME HUH ?? WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE !!!

Pooh knew that he woken up the beast inside stressed out Pavel.

N- no i mean.. i didn;t mean to shout at you but you know..

Okay everyone ..3,2,1...START MOVING !

ALL THE ARTIST WERE LINED UP LIKE STATUES PISSING PAVEL MORE.
