KIM (whispering)91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cD3f0XhXN
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 #191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8Ld66zfHN
He came this way.
MAN #291Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInzyDWG1Jh
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.
KIM91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmZEd9FohT
Thank you. I… I didn’t mean to drag you into this.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcVbZVQVQj
What the hell did you do? Rob someone?
KIM91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNct509wIDh
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.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjrNKJA1Rb
Look, I don’t know what you’re into, but you can’t keep running like this.
KIM91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrwtcWHIiw
I don’t have a choice.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosnUI7GZVw
Maybe you do now.
ZAIN glances back at the street, making sure the coast is clear before pulling his hood over his head.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oVzqU4U0C
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.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznRGNPj0EB
You can crash here. The couch is all yours.
KIM91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSwRzP5L7x
I appreciate it. Just for tonight.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG2znKKK8l
Sure. (pauses) I’ll grab you a towel.
KIM wanders to the window, peeking through the blinds. His shoulders remain tense.
KIM91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOQp9NvgdL
You don’t even know me. Why are you helping?
ZAIN returns, tossing a towel onto the couch.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LinkkpyeG
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.
ZAIN91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbnjRqVj6V
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.
