"Sorry, guys I guess this is it... I know it might sound bad but how about we say what we wanted to say to each other, you know, no more secrets. This might be our final group talk after all." Niel was smiling when he said this, but it didn't have his usual flare and radiance.
Everyone then looked at Niel confused as to what to say. They didn't really know what to say in this kind of situation. Seeing everyone confused and full of hesitation, Oliver was the first one to speak.
