Jihoon is sprinting down the street
Jihoon (internally): Kang Eden...!
Jihoon's mind flashes to several memories of Eden
Shift to Jay and Eden who are standing in the entrance of the bar
Jay: oh- there was a place like this?
SFX: feeling down
Jay (internally): All of his thoughts are written on his face, just like when we were kids.
Jay: let's go! Don't just stand there and space out let's go drink! I'll have a martini...how about you Eden?
Eden flashes back to when he came there with Jihoon
Jihoon: One lamborghini and one junebug please.
Eden: a junebug...
Jay: Who would have thought I'd be sitting here drinking with Eden...Time really goes by fast doesn't it?
Eden: ....yeah.
SFX: feeling down
Jay: AH~ I'M SO SAD~
SFX: Surprised
Jay: I came all the way to Korea but Eden keeps thinking about other things~
Jay pretends to cry
Eden: huh?
Jay: I'm sad~ I'm lonely~ I'm crying~
Eden: Huuuh?!
Eden: I, I'm sorry- Jay! I didn't mean to...hey...
SFX: Restless
SFX: smile
Jay pats Eden on the head
Jay: It's a joke.
(tn: that was already written in English)
Jay: I don't know what's going on, but you can talk to me. Maybe I can help? hm? Is the thing bothering you about a person?
SFX: Jay removes his hand from Eden's head
SFX: Eden turns away quickly
Jay: ahhaha!
Eden: no, no it isn't!
Jay (internally): It's so obvious he's lying...
Jay: hmm let me think...If it's something about a person...Do you like that person?
SFX: startled
Eden: no, no!...between men!
SFX: blush
Eden: between men...liking each other...it's weird...
Jay: you feel disgusted?
SFX: wince
Jay: then what if...I said I like men...Eden, would you feel disgusted?
Eden: no...
SFX: smile
Eden: but still what's impossible is impossible
Jay: after thinking about that person all day long?
Eden: that...that's just because we got into an argument it's not...
SFX: looks away
Eden: and...
Jay: Then shall we do a test?
Eden: test?
SFX: gets closer
Eden: wait, wait a second...
SFX: flinch
SFX: Jay hugs Eden
Eden: Jay? Why did you suddenly...
Jay: Think about this, what if the person hugging you right now... wasn't me but that person. If the person who was here today was him and not me, how would you feel?
Eden re-imagines his day with Jihoon instead of Jay. He imagines hearing Jihoon call his name throughout the day
SFX: Hug
Jay: Thinking about only that person all day. If your chest gets warm because of that person...then that means you like that person.
Eden starts crying
SFX: tear drop
Eden (internally): I know...honestly, I've known for awhile...Jihoon Hyung...
