EXT. BASKETBALL COURT — EVENING

A raven haired male wearing a neon pink headband, and a black tracksuit with pink horizontal lines on the sides, swiftly stole the ball from his opponent.

The opponent of copper hair and dark blue eyes grunted in disbelief. Rolling up the sleeves of his gray hoodie, and ruffling his hair, KOMORI MOTOYA encouraged himself to steal the ball from SAKUSA.

SAKUSA read the other's movements with apprehension. KOMORI could sense SAKUSA's distress, but that wasn't a sign of weakness, on the contrary, it meant that SAKUSA was placing in 100% of his efforts. This being, both, physically and mentally.

KOMORI felt an odd emotion rolling off of SAKUSA in waves, and this deep hidden frustration made his care of the ball reckless and rough. KOMORI, in a moment of the raven's distraction, snatched the ball.

SAKUSA guarded his post by placing himself behind KOMORI, ready to throw his hand out for the ball, depending on the direction that KOMORI would take next.

KOMORI took his chances and went for a stiff leg, the move which required a stance closer to the ground, was to his advantage, because SAKUSA took a second too late to react, and KOMORI committed to performing a Euro Step.

The ball bounced right off of the glass board and into the basketball hoop. KOMORI cheered by catching the ball mid-air and sending SAKUSA a boastful victory smile.

KOMORI
(Chuckles).
You're a little
rough today Sakusa.
What's going on in
that head of yours?

SAKUSA
(Sighs).
I'm tired.

KOMORI
(Soft-spoken)
And why's that?

SAKUSA
(Whisper)
Koyama-San.

KOMORI
Huh? I didn't hear that.

SAKUSA
(Taut)
I said Koyama-San
annoys the hell out of
me these days, and I can't
stand it!

SAKUSA
(Groans).
I don't know why,
honestly, but she
just does little things
that irk my soul!

KOMORI
(tight voice through
his teeth)
Here we go again.

SAKUSA
Look, Komori, I don't like
dictating other's lives, but
she's living with me! I can't
just let her continue ...with...
with this untidy lifestyle
she has!

SAKUSA
(Takes off his headband).
She "accidentally" leaves
her undergarments or other
clothes in the bathroom.

SAKUSA
I don't mean to snoop,
but she leaves her door
open sometimes, and I don't
think she ever does her danm
bed!

SAKUSA
(Dead voice)
And because of the pile
of dirty clothes she keeps
on top of that poor chair in the
corner of the room, it smells
horrible.

SAKUSA
Also, when she's got
projects or quizzes coming
up, she just locks herself
up in her room, and totally
ignores the fact that she's
got chores to do.

SAKUSA
(Monotonous)
Also, let's not forget the
fact that she listens to KPOP
twenty.four.seven.

SAKUSA
And for some reason,
she'll be up at 2 freaking
am, doing God only knows what
on her computer. She's woken
me up at least two times while
raging at whatever's on the
screen.

KOMORI
(Silvery high
pitched laughter).
I'll forget that you
said any of this for
Koyama-San's sake.

KOMORI
(Teasing)
Have you tried,
I don't know,
voicing your concerns
with her?

SAKUSA
(disgusted)
No, why would I?
It's pointless.

KOMORI
And this is exactly why
you haven't been able
to keep a roommate.
You act out your frustration,
instead of giving them a chance
to redeem themselves.

KOMORI
I'm sure that Koyama-San
will listen to you if
you confront her about her
behavior, and then suggest
a plan to change your current
predicament of despair.
(Laughs).

SAKUSA
(Whispers)
I guess you're right.

KOMORI
(Grins).
I'm alway right!
hohoho—

SAKUSA
(Smacks Komori
upside the head).
