I realize not everyone wants to be in the spotlight.
I'm one of them.
But I didn't realize...
She was like me.
Was I wrong?

You sat down next Jungkook on a medium size table for two; awkwardly waving and smiling at people as they give you their greetings. Jungkook did the same, waving at his family members and some to his group of fan girls. You lean against his left shoulder, whispering to him as you look at the crowd. "When were you going to tell me?"
Jungkook smiled nervously. "...never?"
"Oh Señor...Jungkook."
"I'm sorry! I was nervous and I thought you might tell everyone at school that I was Chairman Jeon's son too and-"
"What!? Your father's famous too!?" You sighed, leaning back on the chair and looked at the sky. "Lord, give me strength..."
"I'm sorry...my father told me I had to bring somebody and you were the only one I could talk to so I thought...Kenya, I'm sorry." He apologized, turning to face you and grabbed your right hand. You gave him a fake smile before getting up, slowly letting go of his fingers.
"I'm going to the bathroom." You walked away before hearing an answer from his mouth. You were upset. He hid information and he put you in the spotlight. You've been trying to avoid it because you are dark skinned woman in an Asian country, and he just made it worst.
All of those lights and cameras...crap...

"Oh, Dios, por favor, concédeme protección mientras salgo por esta puerta-"
"Hello there."
"Ah, perra!" You cursed, grabbing your chest as you were frightened by the sudden man. "Oh, hello sir. Sorry, you startled me and-"
"No, I'm sorry. It's just...Jungkook told me to look for you because his-"
"Oh my god," You said, rubbing your temples slightly. "I don't know if I want to talk to him right now..."
The man cocked his head to the side and frowned. "Why is that?"
"He lied to me. Well, he didn't lie lie but he didn't tell me he was famous!" You said, leaning against the hallway wall. "That puts more attention on me and people at school are going to look at me again and I just...ugh. I've been in the shadows for so long, I don't want to be out here."
The man nodded, walking closer to you and leaned beside you. "I'll tell you this...you're not the only one who feels that way."
You looked up at him, cocking an eyebrow as you opened your mouth to speak. "What do you mean?"
He smiles. "Let me guess. At school, he's usually drawing, writing, or singing. He has a certain spot he sits at all the time, to the point it's noticeable, and he doesn't talk to anyone. Did I miss something?"
You widened your eyes, laughing at the accuracy as he continued speaking.
"He is terrible with communication. I know that. But he is a really great person to talk to, hang out with...you should go back out there. He can't fake a smile for long."
You sighed, nodding slightly as you got up from your spot. "I'll go back out there. By the way, what's your name?"
