"You see that girl over there Yoongi? She's amazing! I bet you can do as good as she does right?" said my mother when I sitting beside her. We are under the stage and in the audience, watching the amazing girl who performed a remix of the song. Lee HyoMin is the name that had annouced when the emcee welcomed her to the stage.

"I'll try my best mother." I faked a smiled and left the seat to get ready for my performance. It is a competition, she's the legend and I'm- normal. "Min Yoongi am I right?" asked the head crew when she saw me entering the backstage. I nod my head as she let me entered. then, there is where I met her, face to face.

"I like your mask!" She smiled and gave me hand gesture signalling a hand shake as I did. "I'm Lee Hyomin! Good luck in your performance there! I'll cheer for you in the audience!" She smiled and left along with her aunt, I guess.

"Can I change my name when you're going to annouce?" I asked the emcee when he asked if I'm ready to perform. "I got it covered, your father informed." He said.

I nod my head and waited behind the stage. I adjusted my mask which covers the whole face and put my earphones on to silent the world around me. I hate the voices of judgement. I'm not a perfect child, a perfect person or even a human to be living in this world.

Within minutes in my own world, my performance is over. I looked around, glad that I've made everyone smiled upon my performance. There she was, standing in the first row, clapping her hands and jumping up and down. I like her smile, her happiness.

A smile and a happiness that I wouldn't forget even if I die.
