KIM (whispering)233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQwtLWCac0
Please. Just stay quiet. Don’t move.
ZAIN’s wide eyes shift from KIM to the street as the three men approach, scanning the area. One of them pauses at the alley entrance. KIM holds his breath, his hand instinctively tightening around ZAIN’s wrist. ZAIN notices but says nothing.
MAN #1233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbMpOv0nCW
He came this way.
MAN #2233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rps3XpIyQ
Nah, he wouldn’t risk running into someone.
After a tense moment, the men move on, their footsteps fading. KIM slowly releases his grip on ZAIN, exhaling deeply.
KIM233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHD9GoksOW
Thank you. I… I didn’t mean to drag you into this.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER0Yo6WcIf
What the hell did you do? Rob someone?
KIM233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89RCkWTLSB
I wish it was that simple.
They exchange glances. KIM’s eyes betray the weight of his circumstances. ZAIN hesitates but eventually sighs, brushing rain from his jacket.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5Og500Jah
Look, I don’t know what you’re into, but you can’t keep running like this.
KIM233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88iJBARpG4
I don’t have a choice.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsCki44keW
Maybe you do now.
ZAIN glances back at the street, making sure the coast is clear before pulling his hood over his head.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlTnKVbBOC
Come on. Let’s get out of here.
KIM follows him, their footsteps blending into the city hum. Somewhere in the distance, the faint echoes of danger still linger.
INT. ZAIN'S APARTMENT - NIGHT
The door creaks open as ZAIN flicks on the light, revealing a modest but tidy space. KIM steps inside hesitantly, dripping water onto the floor.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5f4ZYQaL3
You can crash here. The couch is all yours.
KIM233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Bldo6ZfnY
I appreciate it. Just for tonight.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY3Yib5Ydk
Sure. (pauses) I’ll grab you a towel.
KIM wanders to the window, peeking through the blinds. His shoulders remain tense.
KIM233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9FAIRrDh2
You don’t even know me. Why are you helping?
ZAIN returns, tossing a towel onto the couch.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8puyG3vDR
Honestly? I have no idea. Maybe I’m bored. You look like you need someone too.
KIM catches ZAIN’s gaze, a flicker of unspoken gratitude passing between them.
ZAIN233Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYrCFx6p2C
Get some rest. We’ll figure things out in the morning.
KIM nods, sinking onto the couch as ZAIN retreats to his room. The city lights outside the window pulse gently, like a heartbeat against the dark.
