Y/N is an Indian girl living in South Korea to pursue her studies. After graduating from college, she begins searching for a part-time job.

Shopkeeper: "Hey! You clumsy girl! Stop right there!" (runs after her)

Y/N: (running away) "Ah, sorry, Uncle! I promise it won’t happen again!"

Shopkeeper: (stopping, panting heavily) "I’ll deal with you next time!" (pretends to be angry)

Y/N: (smirking while running) "Thank you!"

After escaping, Y/N slows down and mutters to herself, "That uncle is so strict... but I was only reading books!" (pouts)

Lost in thought, she suddenly bumps into someone.

Y/N: "Can’t you see where you’re go—" (stops, wide-eyed) "Oh, Lisa!"

Lisa: "Yah, Y/N! I’ve been calling you forever! And here you are, wandering around!"
Y/N: (pretending innocence) "You called me? Really?"
Lisa: (folds arms) "Yes! I had some good news to share, but you—forget it."
Y/N: (puppy eyes) "Nooo, unnie, please tell me! I’m begging you!"

Lisa: "Ugh, fine! The good news is… you got the job you’ve been wanting!"

Y/N: (gasps and twirls in excitement) "What?! I got the job? Yes! Yes! Yes!"

Ignoring the stares of passersby, she notices their amused looks.

Y/N: (awkwardly scratching her neck) "Oops, sorry!" (grins) "Come on, unnie, let’s celebrate!"
Lisa: "Celebrate? Where are we going?"
Y/N: "To a restaurant, of course!"

At the restaurant, Lisa orders coffee while Y/N gets wine.

Lisa: "So, what’s the plan now?"
Y/N: "Plan? For what?"
Lisa: "Your new job, obviously! Aren’t you nervous?"
Y/N: "No way!"

As the drinks arrive, Y/N finishes her wine in one go.

Y/N: "Waiter! Another glass, please!"
Lisa: (alarmed) "Are you crazy? You just had one!"
Y/N: "Shut up, unnie! You stick to your coffee. Moments like this are meant to be celebrated!"

Lisa: (rolling her eyes dramatically) "Don’t expect me to carry you home like some movie heroine!"
Y/N: (mock death glare) "Yah, I’ll kill you for sure!"
Lisa: (nervous laugh) "Just kidding, hehe..."

After chatting for a while, Y/N asks, "By the way, what’s the job?"

Lisa: "You’ll be working as a waitress at the new restaurant."
Y/N: "Oh! That’s exciting! Are you joining too?"
Lisa: "Do you want me to?"
Y/N: "Of course!"
Lisa: "Alright, then I’ll join you. I can’t leave you alone, can I?"
Y/N: "You’re my lifesaver, unnie!"

Scene 3: First Day at Work

The next morning, Y/N oversleeps.

Y/N: (panicking) "Oh no, it’s already 7:55! I’ll be late!"

She skips breakfast and rushes to the restaurant, where Lisa is waiting outside.

Y/N: (hugging Lisa) "Finally, I’m here!"
Lisa: (folding her arms) "Y/N, you’re late on your first day. What if the boss yells at you?"
Y/N: "I’m sorry, unnie! Please don’t be mad!"
Lisa: "Fine, fine. Let’s go inside."

They meet the manager and start working. By the end of the day, Y/N collapses on her bed, sighing heavily.

Y/N: "Finally, I can rest..." (instantly falls asleep)

Days pass, and Y/N adjusts to her job. One afternoon, her phone rings.

Y/N: "Hello, Mom!"
Y/M: "Hi, dear! How are you?"
Y/N: "I’m good! What about you, Dad, and that monkey Yashveen?"
Y/M: "We’re all fine. I called to tell you that your cousin Shreya is getting married!"
Y/N: (dramatically) "What?! Who in their right mind is marrying that witch?!"
Y/M: "Watch your words! If she hears this, she’ll come after you!"

After discussing the details, Y/N agrees to fly home the next day.

At the airport, Y/N spots her dad and Yashveen waving at her. She runs to hug them.

Yashveen: "It’s been so long!"
Y/N: (teary-eyed) "Yeah, you idiot. I missed you."
Yashveen: "Wait, what did you call me?"

They all laugh and head home. While helping with wedding preparations, Y/N learns that Shreya’s fiancé and his friends will be staying at their house.

Y/N: (excited) "Wow! This wedding is going to be so much fun!"

The polished version retains the humor and lightheartedness while improving the language and flow. Let me know if you want further tweaks!
