Scene 1: No Time to Think
Seo-Jun is still frozen, staring at Nikolai.
“I can’t just leave! My job, my students—”
“Your life, Teach. Think about your life.”
A loud BANG at the door. Someone is trying to break in. Seo-Jun flinches. Nikolai curses under his breath.
Nikolai grabs Seo-Jun’s wrist.
“Fire escape. Now.” Seo-Jun resists.
“Are you crazy?! We’re on the third floor—”
“Would you rather take the stairs and greet the guys with guns?”
Seo-Jun gulps. "Fine. Fire escape it is."
Scene 2: The Fire Escape Disaster
Seo-Jun climbs onto the emergency stairs first. Nikolai is right behind him—too fast.
“Move it, Teach.”
“I’m going as fast as I—NIKOLAI, STOP PUSHING ME!” Nikolai scoffs, dropping down a step too easily.
“If you’re this slow in a crisis, how do you survive high schoolers?”
“My students don’t chase me with guns, Nikolai!” Seo-Jun stumbles on the last step and almost eats the pavement.
Nikolai catches him—barely.
“For someone who complains a lot, you’re terrible at running away.”
“Shut up before I push you myself.”
They finally hit the alley and sprint toward a parked car.
Scene 3: The Car Chase
They jump into the car. Nikolai revs the engine.Seo-Jun fumbles with his seatbelt.
“Put your seatbelt on!”
“Teach, now is not the time—”
“I DON’T CARE, SAFETY FIRST!”
Nikolai groans, yanks the seatbelt over himself, and speeds off. Seo-Jun grips the dashboard.
“SLOW DOWN, I WANT TO LIVE!”
“Then shut up and let me drive!”
A black car appears in the rearview mirror. They’re being chased. Seo-Jun turns pale.
“Oh my god, they’re FOLLOWING US.”
“Yeah, I noticed, Teach.” Nikolai takes a sharp turn. Seo-Jun SCREAMS.
“I HATE THIS.”
“I hate your screaming more.”
The chase gets more intense. Nikolai is weaving through traffic like a lunatic. Seo-Jun clutches his seatbelt, shaking.
“I JUST WANTED TO BE A TEACHER!”
“And now you’re living a much more exciting life. Congrats.”
Nikolai does a sharp turn into a narrow alley. The black car can’t follow. They lose them. Silence. Seo-Jun, pale and breathless, turns to Nikolai.
“I’m suing you.”
“You can’t afford a lawyer.”
Scene 4: What Now?
They stop outside an abandoned warehouse. Seo-Jun was still gripping his seatbelt like his life depended on it.
Nikolai parked the car and stretched his arms.
“Alright, we’re here.” Seo-Jun didn’t move.
“I think I died back there.”
“Nope. Still breathing. Now get out.”
“What the hell just happened?!”
“A successful getaway. You’re welcome.”
Seo-Jun takes a deep breath.
“Where exactly is here?”
Nikolai shrugged. “Safe house. Temporary. Not luxury, but it works.”
Seo-Jun looked at the rundown building.
“It looks like a horror movie setting.”
“Better than a morgue, right?”
Seo-Jun exhaled slowly.
“What now?”
Nikolai leaned against the car, watching him.
“You’re not going home. That’s for sure.”
Seo-Jun stared at him, realization hitting hard.
His job? Gone. His normal life? Over. All because some reckless mafia heir crashed into his world.
He rubbed his temples.
“I hate this.”
Nikolai smirked.
“Get used to it, Teach.”
