stands at the door
rushes over to Stranger, placing a hand on his shoulder Please, don't go. Just give me a minute to explain everything, okay?

Stranger
trembling
takes a deep breath, looking into Stranger's eyes I know this looks really bad, but there's a lot more to the story. That man...

starts to walk away slowly
grabs Stranger's arm gently, pleading No, please. Just listen to me. That man... he's someone I met recently.

Who is he?

Stranger
shocked So you two are dating?
firmly shaking her head No, that's not true. We're just friends. He's been helping me out with some things, that's all.

Stranger
confused Helping you out? What do you mean?
pauses, searching for the right words He's been providing emotional support for me. Being an idol can be really tough sometimes, and he's been there for me when I needed someone to talk to.

Stranger
I’m sorry. I didn’t know. I just assumed… I’m sorry.
smiles softly, gently cupping Stranger's face It's okay, Stranger. You don't have to apologize. People misunderstand things all the time.

Stranger
looks her in the eye I’ve been in love with you since I was 12.
Katie and Stranger decide to continue their conversation outside of the dressing room, where they can fully express their feelings and work through their emotions without the looming presence of the other man.

smiling brightly Thank you for giving me this chance, Stranger. I don't take our relationship for granted, and I promise to always be honest with you.

Stranger
nods
animatedly talking So, you won't believe what happened during the concert last night!

Stranger
looks at her
pauses, noticing Stranger's distant gaze Are you okay, Stranger? Is something bothering you?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_12.png)
Stranger
What’s wrong?
places a hand on Stranger's arm I just noticed you seemed a bit distracted. Is something on your mind?
