10. SOUNDBITE (English) Natalia Deralda and Melan Ielope, fans – on Liam:
Ielope: "It’s not only Liam, but like all the memories that he has left us with One Direction. Like, I literally was a fan of One Direction since I was 12. And it was all my teenage years and we grew up with him. And regardless if you still follow his career nowadays or not, it’s like, you feel that that part of yourself is also living with that and just thinking that we’ll never see him again on stage or like that. It pains a little bit, you know?"
Deralda: "It’s so weird that this happened."
Ielope: "Exactly as well, the way that it happened. It’s not the end that we would have imagined that someone from One Direction would have. So young as well."

Like last night we just thought that we were going to continue with our life but then we thought that we needed to do something for our brains to be like, this is real and we have to accept it."

And they just, the whole fandom the One Direction fandom, the solo fandoms, they are just a great family and you feel so welcome.
