You're well-known.
A walk didn't go by where nobody mentioned your name on the streets, where nobody high-fived you.

You're pretty proud of the reason why, even though you would never admit it to your father.

You are greatly appreciated for your work in the hilarity department.
Your jokes. Your pranks.
And that's why you're sitting alone on the wood floor of your bedroom at 2 o'clock in the morning.

"Grounded," you scoff. "So stupid."

You stare dreamily out the window of your cluttered room.
The starry night. The abandoned cobblestone street.
That's your favourite part of the day.
The night.

You can always depend on those lonely streets to be by yourself with your own thoughts after a long day of being everyone's favourite person.

'Oh my God, I can't focus in here.' You think.

It's so intriguing. It's like the nature is luring you outside.

"Wouldn't hurt." You shrug.

You stumble up and quietly slip out your window onto the roof of your house. You take a second to breathe in the fresh air and look at the dimmed street and house lights.
You then turn behind to close the window.

"I won't be out too long.." You lie to yourself.

You quickly jump down the roof onto the hard cobblestone.
Ouch.. you check your hand as it starts to bleed a little.
You're good. Just a scrape.

You suck it up and start walking towards your favourite spot in all of Encanto.

You find yourself sitting on the edge of a brick bridge on top of a small hill that overlooks the entire town.

"It's so nice here," you think to yourself, then realizing you've said it outloud.
Nobody's here to hear. That's the best part. Judge-free zone.

You take a huge breath, roughly exhale, and continue thinking.

"I wonder how other people manage to stay out of trouble all the time," You say to yourself. "Nevermind, that's impossible." Then you remember you're grounded, and not Camilla or Caramello, your older sister and brother.
You.
"Giving main character vibes." You say, proud of your fun personality.
"I'm not ashamed of it, why should I be?"
"You shouldn't be." A voice says from behind you.
