(Both Karma and Time teleport into Seonmin’s house, the atmosphere tense with an unfamiliar energy.)

Seonmin:(startled, stepping back) “Ahh! Who are you guys? Where did you both come from? Get out, or I’ll call the cops!”

(She raises her phone, but as she attempts to dial, she suddenly realizes that Time has frozen the moment around her, the air thick with an ominous silence. Time sits down casually on a nearby chair, observing with an amused expression.)

Karma:(stepping forward, his presence commanding and intimidating)* “Seonmin Lee... my name is Karma, and I’m here to punish you.”

(Seonmin’s eyes widen, confusion and fear swirling within her as she processes his words.)

Seonmin:(stammering) “Punish me? For what? I haven’t done anything to you!”

Karma:(his tone shifting, revealing a hint of frustration) “You might not see it, but you have. I don’t like confronting mortals face to face, but for you, I made an exception. You’ve made me feel something that isn’t part of me... anger.”

(Seonmin, caught between disbelief and realization, struggles to maintain her composure.)

Seonmin:
“Anger? What do you mean? I... I’m just living my life! What right do you have to judge me?”

Karma:(his voice low and filled with intensity) “Living your life? You’ve left a trail of destruction behind you—betrayal, deceit, and pain. You were blinded by your desires, and now the consequences are crashing down on you.”

(Seonmin’s bravado begins to falter as she senses the weight of Karma’s words.)

Seonmin:(voice shaking)
“I didn’t think it would end like this...”

(Karma steps closer, the air around them thickening with tension.)

Karma:
“Exactly. That’s the problem. You didn’t think. But now, it’s time to face the consequences. You’ll see the impact of your choices and how they ripple through the lives of those you hurt.”

(Time observes quietly, his expression a mix of curiosity and concern as he watches the confrontation unfold.)

Karma: “I’m gonna snatch your everything...”

Seonmin:(sobbing, her voice breaking) “Please don’t... I beg you...”

Karma: “keep beggingif thats gonna save you.”

(In desperation, Seonmin collapses to her knees and reaches for Time, clutching at his robes.)

Seonmin: “Please, you’re a god! Please forgive me!”

Time:(shaking his head slowly) “We are not... gods.”

Karma:
“ We are not gods.”

Seonmin:(voice trembling with fear)“I beg you both, please... I’m sorry... please…”

Time:“There is only one way... You must go back in time and fix everything.”

Seonmin:(sobbing harder, hope flickering in her eyes) “I’ll do it! I’ll do it, I promise! Please forgive me!”

Time:(his tone somber and firm)“But mortal... Time never looks back or reverses itself for a mortal…”

Karma:(crossing his arms, an air of finality in his voice)
“No point begging, Seonmin. You’ve made your choices, and now you must face the consequences.”

(Seonmin, her desperation turning into despair, sinks back onto her knees, the weight of her actions crashing down on her as Karma and Time watch, their expressions a mix of indifference and resolve.)
