Who are you?

I slowly opened my eyes to see the place where I am. My head was a little spinning. Yet I managed to open my eyes. My eyes wandered around the people around me.

Weird...

I examined everyone's figures. It was not like ordinary stuff. But a little different from that all. My vision was blurry, and seeing things was not even clear because of that. I rub my eyes like a child waking up from a deep sleep. When I came to know my position, it was so embarrassing. I was laying on the ground surrounded by so many people. But they didn't even give any attention to me. I slowly positioned my hand on the ground for support to stand.

Why do these people look like so former?

Looks like I am in America

I walked around with amazement in me which makes me each second to think about my actual situation.

"Mom...". I called my mom loudly. Instead of my so-called mom's voice, I heard many people's voices. They looked at me weirdly. Their gazes were not on me, but on my dress, shoes like that. I looked at them weirdly to find out who is this person. But all I could think about is their dress. It's like they are living between 1910-20.

"Hey child, are you lost?".

A woman, in her 50s, asked me with concerning voice.

Shit...

Still, I am desperate...

I looked at her hat correctly fixed on her head.

"Where am I? Who are you guys?". I asked with a worrying voice. But seems like she didn't get me.

I walked away, with all their gaze on me.

"Momma, who is that lady? Is she a goddess?".

I heard children asking about me to their parents. I ignored it with an effort.

I checked my pocket for some money, but unfortunately, I didn't have any. I heard people saying that we have to find our way alone in a country. But never faced that type of experience in my life. This was so new.

Walking half an hour, I still processing to believe this all. I didn't even find my mother, sister, or cousins yet. I was totally afraid of this sudden change in my surroundings. I searched everywhere. But there is no one except me. I went to an old-looking dress shop because others staring at me. I want to change this dress otherwise they will start the comment about me.

"Hey mam, how can I help you?".

I let my eyes wander around the dress shop to find a proper dress that fit me. But all I could see was some dress of former.

"Can you give me a dress that suits me?".

I don't know what I have to ask them to buy a dress. They seem ancient, so I don't know how to communicate with them.

"Come, I will show you a dress match perfect for you".

I can still see her weird gaze on me which she maintained from the start.

She walked into a room. I stood outside dumbfounded. Looking around the shop, I found a dress and it was like so good. But I waited for her to show me the dress she had in her mind to me.

"Try this". I became a little shocked when I heard the sudden voice of her. But as soon as I Saw that dress which she was holding, my heart melted as wax. It was so simple, a light blue frock without so many works. Its full sleeve didn't cover my whole hand. But it was so beautiful when I wore it.

Three white buttons were fixed In the middle of the chest side. Not too full. Just like a half frock that covers my knees completely.

After wearing it, I directly went to the mirror to examine myself. It was so beautiful yet stunning. No decorations. Just a simple frock as I always wore. I found myself smiling while looking in the mirror by enjoying my own beauty. I slowly turned to the lady to know what is her expression. She was making her mouth like a 'woow' shape. I somehow managed a forcing smile.

"Are you any creature from another planet??". First of all, that made me rethink my costumes. But I realized that she didn't mean it like that. Instead, she wondered because of my beauty. When I was in the real world, they never even give attention to me more than jeonghan. Look at here, a crowd is looking at me like I am some goddess. I walked to the counter to pay, but that was when I realized I don't have any money. I stood there like a fool when she started to ask for money. I forced a smile. My eyes can't lie a perfect lie. So I drifted my gaze from her and searched for help.

"Mam, are you listening?".

She managed to speak with a calm voice. But I know she realized something is wrong. I looked at her and started to say a perfect yet stupid lie.

"I am a...goddess".

Now I get it, I was so stupid and dumbfounded. Why do I say a stupid thing? I know they don't believe my perfect lie.

" Hm...I got it, you don't have money, right?".

I was so surprised by her words. Because she knows the truth. My stupid lies don't even bother her.

"You don't have to pay. You can go". She smiled at me. I know she got pity for me. But I don't want that. In this situation, there is nothing I can do for me except her offer.

I walked over and over, but the saddest part is, I didn't even find any safest place. Finally, I found a bar with some lights in front of it. Humans call there 'the safest place'.

I never went to a bar like others. You already know, that my father was an alcohol addict and he died because of alcohol. But the only I can do is to step up there and have some drinks.

I walked through the main way to the seat to fix myself okay. I looked around to see thousands of people drinking. They all look like they are having a party or something. They seem like rich people. I was the only one so innocent here. Maybe because I am new. The person came with a strong drink in front of me. I unhurriedly took the drink from the table and started to draw a circle with the glass. I really don't want to drink this. I hate these things. Whenever I saw this damn thing, my mind fills with bad and sad memories.

"Are you okay Mrs.?".

A deep voice came from behind my back making me to turn around and see that person. When my gaze finally landed on the male figure, for a second I was so lost In my own thoughts.

"Hey Mrs., that drink is so strong. Are you sure??".

His deep voice hit me on my chest with a total voice. Something in me was not good. I mean, It was like a fairy tale.

Who is this man?

A sudden question plopped up in my head.

"Mrs? are you really okay?".

"Oh...I-I...yeah yeah... never mind".

I was a bit nervous. I don't know why I act like this in front of this unknown man.

"You seem like never entered In a bar before". I looked at him completely to see his face. His doe eyes were so shining at me. Some of his hair fall over his eyes.

"Oh..yeah...I am new".

"I see".

Awkward...

"I didn't see you before here, by any chance, are you from any other countries?".

I really want to say the truth about what happened to me completely. But not to some random guy.

"Yeah... I am Korean".

"That's good. I am also from Korea. But grew up here".

"Oo...I see". I was a little happy because I met a Korean.

But still, he was a stranger.

"What's your name?". He took a glass and took a sip of it. He waited for me to answer his question.

"My name is Kim Na bi".

" Like butterfly...". He chuckled a little by saying that.

"Then what's your name?".

He placed his drink on the desk. A small smile formed on his lips. He took a deep sigh and turned toward me to answer. Finally, he looked into my eyes and said,

"Jeon jungkook"
