Jen and Gulf were picked up by one of her security team and driven to the show. She had called Mew to give him the news, they could hear Mew's sister scream from the other side of the phone. The car pulled up at the back of the venue where Mew and his sister were waiting for them. After Mew telling his sister that it was Jen that had gotten them the access, she was near fainting. They watched as Jen and Gulf exited the car, in the dim lights from the streets and back door, they looked ethereal. Jen smiled as she walked towards them both and extended a hand to Mew's sister. 

"It's so good to meet you!" She was met with such hysteria. Mew took his face into both of his hands. His sister shrieking.

"I can't believe tonight! I'm meeting you and Paul Klein! I'm such a huge fan I can't believe this is happening!" She jumped up and down with Jen's hands in hers. Jen jumped too, laughing with her.

"Please excuse my sister, Jomm. She looks clever but she's a bit dim-" Jomm dropped Jen's hands and slapped her brothers shoulder, hard. Jen laughed, the sudden rush of wanting to be back home doing the same to her brothers, Jun and Sun. Gulf introduced himself.

"Wow, so handsome!" Jomm looked at Mew in shock. Why were all of his friends so good looking?

"Jomm!" Gulf chuckled nervously.

"We better get inside before it starts." Jen offered an escape from the conversation. The group agreed and they were led inside by a man on the door. He led them through the venue and onto the second floor. He threw back a curtain which exposed them to the stage and the crowd facing it. Jen wasn't expecting to be noticed but wore her cap nonetheless. They stalked out onto the balcony and took in the scene in front of them. Jomm was squealing in the corner, Mew hiding from embarrassment and Gulf looked his shy self. 

Another man offered his assistant to them and lingered by the curtain to the balcony. Jen knew he was wanting a photo. She didn't want the crowd to know that she was there, not because she didn't want to be mobbed, but because it was Paul's concert and she didn't want to take that away from him. She pretended not to notice and that he would leave without her having to say no. He did.
