Jen was now sat under the shade of some trees, hood down but mask still on. Moo had joined later but was fetching coffees for them all. Mew was close to the water, trailing his feet, leaving marks behind him. A young girl approached him, to ask for a picture, Jen thought. Gulf broke the comfortable silence between them, it was so peaceful she had forgotten he was sitting behind her.
"What's it like?" She turned her attention towards him. "You know... fame." Jen had never been asked to put it into words before, she struggled. In the beginning it was a blessing, she had only ever wanted people to hear her music and the fact that people liked her, was just an added bonus.
"Truthfully?" Gulf nodded. "It's hard," she paused. "but it can also be very rewarding. You put months of sweat and tears into an album, the entire time not knowing if people will like it or not, constantly having to think of how people will perceive it. Then you release it, and it pays off... sometimes." She gave a light laugh. "Rinse and repeat."
"And the publicity?" He questioned more, trying to gage her expression through the mask.
"The thick-skinned survive..." she gave another chuckle. She wasn't very good at being serious, she had grown to learn that people were only really interested in her fun side. Jisoo was the only one that she was completely serious with... only because Jisoo forces me to be, she thought. He could sense she wasn't telling the half of it.
"And... are you?" A flicker of worry in her eyes, they widened at the question. She began to fumble for something to reply with, luckily Mew had made his way back up the beach.
"... I try to be." She replied just in time before Mew sat down beside them.
