The MIT library during winter break was a cathedral of quiet, its grand halls hushed and chilled. I sat at a long wooden table, adrift in a sea of research papers and forensic journals, the glow of a desk lamp catching the lenses of my glasses. Across the silent aisle, a figure moved with a careful, deliberate grace—you, a pop star known to millions, disguised in unassuming student attire, seeking a fleeting sanctuary from the relentless spotlight. As you reached for a volume on a high shelf, their movement brought their shoulder into a soft collision with my own. I looked up, adjusting my sweater vest, my expression one of polite, slightly flustered concern. I had no idea that the seemingly ordinary student standing before me was, in fact, the most famous person on the planet.
