MARK
"it's very unusual for you to call for a day off. what happened the other night?"

JIMIN
"i don't know what you mean."

MARK
"you've always been a bad liar, jimin. i saw you walking outside with that customer once we had closed."

JIMIN
"he was just trying to get me to sleep with him. as always."

MARK
"and did it work?"

JIMIN
"no."

MARK
"oh, really? is that why you got into a cab with him?"

JIMIN
"i really wish you would just let me do my job."

MARK
"we'd just opened, jimin. there's nobody here yet."

JIMIN
"well, i'm cleaning the glasses. that counts for something."

MARK
"you know, he seems to really like you."

JIMIN
"he seems to really like a lot of people."

MARK
"he came here yesterday."

JIMIN
"he what?"

jimin almost dropped the glass he was holding, then he noticed the smirk on mark's face, causing him to continue cleaning the said glass, and more cautiously this time.

MARK
"he was looking for you. his hair was disheveled, his shirt unbuttoned, and he looked like he had been drinking the whole day."

JIMIN
"he's such a fucking idiot."

MARK
"he said he wanted to see you and i suggested he calls you but he said you were most likely not going to answer."

JIMIN
"i don't know why he did that, but i'm sure it's not because he cared."

MARK
"why the hell would he come all the way here then? you said so yourself, he likes a lot of people. do you really think he has nothing better to do with his life other than stalk a bartender whom he had just slept with and ask him to do it all over again?"

JIMIN
"what? i told you. i didn't sleep with him."

MARK
"i don't know what happened between you two, but you need to work it out. i don't want to lose my best employee over this."

JIMIN
"what are you talking about?"

MARK
"you've never missed a day at work before, jimin. also, you've never been this absent-minded at work before." 

mark pointed at the one glass jimin has been trying to polish for the past ten minutes. 

JIMIN
"fair point."

MARK
"now, please. there's your first customer for the day."

mark then left jimin with jeongguk who looked like he was just about to attend the grammy's, all dressed up. the complete opposite of how mark described he looked like just the day before.

JIMIN
"why are you here?"

JEONGGUK
"to drink. why else would i be here?"

jimin scoffed and started to prepare jeongguk's favorite white russian cocktail. 

JEONGGUK
"why weren't you here yesterday?"

JIMIN
"i think you know why."

JEONGGUK
"it was just a small fight, jimin. you didn't have to miss work over it."

JIMIN
"no. my ass hurt like hell and my legs were too weak to even get me upstairs to my bedroom. i fell asleep on the couch as soon as i got home." 

JEONGGUK
"shit. i'm sorry."

JIMIN
"really, why are you here?"

jimin was growing more and more impatient each second, but he still did his job and handed jeongguk his drink.

JEONGGUK
"i want to talk about what happened."

JIMIN
"you weren't bad, jeongguk. if that's what you want to hear. it's true. you were rough but it was just the way i liked it."

JEONGGUK
"oh, wow. that wasn't really what i wanted to ask, but thanks? i guess?"

JIMIN
"what do you mean?"

JEONGGUK
"i meant, i wanted to talk about the fight. we need to address it if we're going to try and save this friendship."

JIMIN
"this friendship was doomed the minute i jumped into your bed."

JEONGGUK
"i threw you on my bed."

JIMIN
"excuse me?"

JEONGGUK
"literally. you know i'm not lying. and you liked it."

JIMIN
"can you stop? see, this is why we can't be friends."

JEONGGUK
"i don't understand you, jimin. you tell me you wanna date me for real and be my boyfriend and all that shit. then you decide to sleep with me all of a sudden. then you wake up the next morning, mad at me for god knows what reason. and now you don't even want to be friends at all? you always judged me for using other people, but how come it's okay for you to do it to me?"

JIMIN
"i wasn't using you!"

JEONGGUK
"then why, pray tell, are you acting like this?"

JIMIN
"because i don't want to be like them, okay?"

JEONGGUK
"you don't wanna be like the girls i fuck and throw away, so you let me fuck you then you throw me away? well, that's just nice. you know, i was going to ask you out yesterday when you woke up. that's why i wasn't right next to you. i woke up earlier to get my motorbike. i left it at my dad's and haven't used it in a long time. if you must know, i wanted to take you out into the city on it. take you places where i love spending time alone."

JIMIN
"that doesn't make any sense."

JEONGGUK
"why? because it's not something the jeon jeongguk you've come to know would do? yeah, i wanted to change that...the rotten image you have of me."

JIMIN
"why all of a sudden?"

JEONGGUK
"because not talking to you for a whole week made me realize how much i actually appreciate your existence?"

JIMIN
"well, sleeping with me wasn't exactly the best way to get me to trust you."

JEONGGUK
"but was it such a mistake?"

JIMIN
"frankly, i do not know."

JEONGGUK
"well, to me...it wasn't."

JIMIN
"what?"

JEONGGUK
"it wasn't just fucking to me, jimin. it felt right."

JIMIN
"what are you on about?"

JEONGGUK
"i'm saying that if you're still up for the ride, i can pick you up after your shift."

JIMIN
"you know i finish late at night."

JEONGGUK
"would you really be tired already? i mean, just the other day, you got off from work and still had too much energy to last four hours with me."

JIMIN
"oh my fucking god, i hate you."

JEONGGUK
"i'll take that as a 'yes', thank you very much."
