boss: "Take care, [y/n]! Thank you for all your help today!"
y/n: "Of course!"
(BOSS leaves)
y/n: (whistling "Boy With Luv")
unknown: "[y/n]."
y/n: (stops biking)
unknown: "Hey."
y/n: "Jesus Christ, Soobin, you scared me!"
soobin: "Sorry."
y/n: "What are you doing here?"
soobin: "I was passing by. I just got out of practice."
y/n: "At this hour?"
soobin: (shrugs) "I stayed a little bit later than everyone else."
y/n: "Didn't practice end an hour ago?"
soobin: (nods)
y/n: "Soobin. Don't overwork yourself. You already play like a pro."
soobin: "I guess."
y/n: "You guess but I know."
soobin: "Always quick with a comeback, huh?"
y/n: "Yes."
soobin: (sighs) "I've just been really in my head lately, and not in a good way. I feel like I don't belong on the team."
y/n: "But you do. You have every right to be on the team. And look at all the work you're putting in. Beomgyu told Kai that you helped him sharpen his hook shots."
soobin: "He did?"
y/n: "Mhm. He really appreciates it. You're making a difference, Soobin. They want you on the team as much as you want it."
soobin: "It's not them I'm worried about..."
y/n: "What do you mean?"
soobin: "Nothing... I'm just really overwhelmed. What if I screw everything up?"
y/n: "How?"
soobin: (silence)
y/n: "You're not still thinking about that video, are you? You're not that type of person, Soobin. You said so yourself."
soobin: "I know that. But does everyone else?"
y/n: "Don't mind what everyone else thinks. They don't know you. You know you, and that's what's really important."
soobin: "It's so much easier said than done."
y/n: "I know... If there was any way that I could clear your fears, I would. But people just suck and people will always talk shit. Just don't let yourself give in to it."
soobin: "I'm trying."
y/n: "We should come up with a mantra."
soobin: "A mantra?"
y/n: "Something for you to tell yourself when you're upset."
soobin: "Like what?"
y/n: "Like... people suck."
soobin: (laughs) "People suck? Really?"
y/n: "Why not? They really do, sometimes. Plus it's short and simple. Come on. People suck."
soobin: "People suck."
y/n: "I didn't hear you."
soobin: "People. Suck."
y/n: "One more time."
soobin: "People suck!"
y/n: (laughs) "That's the spirit."
soobin: (grins) "Some people really do suck. Just not you."
y/n: (grins)
soobin: (clears throat) "So... still talking to that Tinder guy?"
y/n: "Not you too. Kai won't stop asking me questions, either."
soobin: "We're just curious."
y/n: (sighs) "Yeah."
soobin: "Yeah, you're still talking to him?"
y/n: "Mhm."
soobin: "Hm. Is he nice?"
y/n: "Yes."
soobin: "Can I see a picture?"
y/n: "Am I dating him or are you?"
soobin: "No, but...... wait. Dating? You're dating him?"
y/n: "No. But you know what I mean. I need to know what he looks like, not you."
soobin: "If you do date him, you realize Kai and I are going to give him a serious shake down."
y/n: "Oh god..."
soobin: "Just the basics: his age, his hobbies, his last girlfriend--"
y/n: "Okay, okay, Mr. Protective. Calm down. We're home now. Do you have the gate key?"
soobin: "Yeah, one second."
y/n: "Oka--"
(incoming car)
y/n: "Oh shit."
soobin: "What?"
y/n: "It's my mom. She's about to enter through the gate."
soobin: "Here."
[SOOBIN grabs Y/N]
y/n: "Ow."
soobin: "Sorry."
y/n: "Behind a tree? Really?"
soobin: "Trees were my go-to hiding spots for hide and go seek."
y/n: "Let's just hope we're only hiding and my mom isn't seeking."
soobin: "I don't think she is."
y/n: "Is she driving through the gate now?"
soobin: "Almost. It's opening..."
(silence)
y/n: "Do you still see her?"
soobin: "She's through the gate now."
y/n: "Okay. But we can't go in right away or she'll see us."
soobin: "You go ahead, while the main gate's still open."
(silence)
soobin: "I said you can go in."
y/n: "Can you let go of my waist then?"
soobin: (coughs) "S-sorry."
y/n: "It's fine."
soobin: "Good night."
y/n: "Good night."
soobin: "[y/n]?"
y/n: "Yeah?"
soobin: "Thanks. I really appreciate you always listening."
y/n: "Thanks for always wanting to tell me. And Soobin?"
soobin: "Mhm?"
y/n: "You're a great basketball player. If no one else can see that, then they need to get their vision checked. Okay?"
soobin: (laughs) "Okay. Good night."
y/n: "You already said that."
soobin: "I just wanted to confirm."
y/n: "Bye, you weirdo."
