KIM (whispering)198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NmioiH87i
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 #1198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7KHIk4njl
He came this way.
MAN #2198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyngI6uFgY
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.
KIM198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47YowaYFc2
Thank you. I… I didn’t mean to drag you into this.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SJzbsxYpf
What the hell did you do? Rob someone?
KIM198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvHiPLMNq4
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.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGeNtp1Sdx
Look, I don’t know what you’re into, but you can’t keep running like this.
KIM198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5C3IafB3l
I don’t have a choice.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpWSyXgcpe
Maybe you do now.
ZAIN glances back at the street, making sure the coast is clear before pulling his hood over his head.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkQmwy6ySO
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.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemF15eeupz
You can crash here. The couch is all yours.
KIM198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQazU2WCWgL
I appreciate it. Just for tonight.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ072oG24A1T
Sure. (pauses) I’ll grab you a towel.
KIM wanders to the window, peeking through the blinds. His shoulders remain tense.
KIM198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsPirPDdo5
You don’t even know me. Why are you helping?
ZAIN returns, tossing a towel onto the couch.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcIeTTdFUM
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.
ZAIN198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEcvJYDntz
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.
