Chapter 11: Public Is Mine

Tang Mo had cried on camera forty times, and not once had it looked like this.

"You hate crowds," he said, standing in the dressing-room doorway with his face wet. "You told me yourself. You hate every one of them."

"Yes," said Shen Yichen.

"You stood up in front of three thousand," said Tang.

"Yes," said Shen.

"And you said my name, and you said the whole thing, and you told Wei Chuan to play it," said Tang.

"I did," said Shen, and his voice was rough. "Public is yours. I know. I broke the term."

Tang shut the door behind him.

He turned the lock.

"I believed it," said Shen suddenly, to the floor. "When it played. For two seconds. I thought, there. That's him."

Tang's tears did not stop.

They ran down his jaw and dripped off his chin.

"Two seconds," he said.

"I'm sorry," said Shen.

"Everyone else I've ever known took a week," said Tang.

Tang laughed, a wet cracked sound.

"Brother Zhan took a year. My own mother took a month," said Tang.

"You took two seconds, and then you stood up and took the microphone out of my hand."

"I shouldn't have," said Shen.

"Don't you dare apologize," said Tang.

He crossed the room in three steps and stood over the sofa.

"You broke my term," he said.
