KWON HAEUN


"Gyeong-su, you're bleeding." Cheong-san tells him.

"I am?" Gyeong-su touches his nose, "Oh, that's because Su-hyeok hit me with the fucking mop."

Nayeon moves back away from him, "Stay back! You were bitten, weren't you Gyeong-su?"

"He's not lying! I saw Su-hyeok hit him!" Haeun yells back at Na-yeon.

"Are you trying to get us all killed?" Na-yeon spits back at Haeun.

"What is your fucking problem with me?" Gyeong-su storms up to Na-yeon.

"You were bitten!" Na-yeon yells.

"Gyeong-su--" Ms.Park started.

"I-I'm telling you! I swear I wasn't bit!" Gyeong-su tells Ms.Park.

Gyeong-su sighs in annoyance, "Shit."

"Look! Your hand, Explain that!" Na-yeon points to an open cut on his hand.

"I got it from the computer, Didn't you see that?" Gyeong-su takes a step towards Na-yeon.

Everyone who was in that corner backed away from him.

Na-yeon, Nam-ra, Hyo-ryeong, Ji-min, and On-jo.

"Don't you trust me? I can't believe this. I got this trying to save all of you." Gyeong-su turns away from them.

So-yoon goes and check's Gyeong-su's hand. "It's not a bite mark, he's fine."

"Yeah, definitely. It's just a scratch." Su-hyeok tells the others.

"Ms.Park please come take a look." So-yoon tells her.

"Thank goodness, it doesn't look like a bite mark. He's okay." Ms.Park reassures the girls.

Haeun angrily turns towards the others, "Do you guys all feel fucking better? After he saved us all inclduing yourselves, you suspect him?"

"And for what? To save your little asses? Next time, I hope he doesn't save us, and your asses really understand."

Ms.Park sighs, "Haeun! That's enough."

Haeun scoffs, Going to the window "Whatever."

"Na-yeon, Say sorry, end this, please." Dae-su pleads.

"Why should I?" Na-yeon asks.

"He did it all to save us. Why can't you just say that you're sorry?" Dae-su says calmly.

"Because I'm not sorry, I saw everything. I saw the creature grab you." Na-yeon talks about earlier.

"I'm right, he could be infected!" Na-yeon continues.

"Na-yeon, enough." Ms.Park stops her.

"It really did! That thing grabbed his hand!" Na-yeon argues.

"Wait, can touching his hand infect him?" Cheong-san asks her.

"I have no idea, but maybe." Na-yeon says.

"I held I-sak's hand before she fell, why is nothing happening to me?" On-jo looks at Na-yeon.

"He has a cut on his hand. It's different when there's an open wound." Na-yeon says.

Everyone sighs, annoyed with her bickering.

"Stop blaming me! Why don't you just think for yourselves?" Na-yeon looks at the others.

"Hey, Na-yeon. I know you've always hated Gyeong-su, but I think you're really crossing the line here."

"This is about life or death." Cheong-san reminds her about our situation.

"She's always like this." Ji-min scoffs, Na-yeon snaps her head towards her.

"If it weren't for him, we would definitely be dead right now." Su-hyeok says.

"And now he might be the one killing all of us!" Na-yeon argues back.

"Now you're the one who's killing me." So-yoon sighs.

"Just shut up, Na-yeon. Look at my hand, I'm totally fine!" Gyeong-su points to his hand.

"Hey! That's enough, all of you! Okay? We are ending this." Ms.Park yells.

"Ms.Park--" Na-yeon starts but get's cut off by Ms.Park.

"Enough!"

"But she--" Same with Gyeong-su, he also get's cut off by Ms.Park.

"No!"

Ms.Park sighs, "Let's do this. Gyeong-su, you're going to wait in the recording room for ten minutes."

"I know it'll be hard, but at least it's better than people thinking you're infected." Ms.Park assures him.

"Fuck ten, I'll do half...I'll just do a full hour." Gyeong-su scoffs.

"But Gyeong-su, turning into a zombie takes less than 5 minutes." Haeun says.

"It's just to be sure." Gyeong-su tells her.

"Is that enough? And if nothing happens, you'll apologize, right?" Ms.Park asks Na-yeon.

"Yeah." Na-yeon says, but So-yoon and Haeun don't believe a word out of her mouth.

"And everyone else is okay with that, right?" Ms.Park asks, everyone else nods.

"Let's consider this a way to learn to trust each other." Ms.Park says.

"But we all trust him, except for them over there." So-yoon points to the rest of the girls.

"See you in an hour." Gyeong-su walks into the recording room, closing the door.
