best friend: "Hey."
y/n: "Hey."
best friend: "Where's your boyfriend?"
y/n: "He's with Yeonjun today. More dance practice."
best friend: "Woah."
y/n: "I know. I'm proud of him."
best friend: "No, I mean I just asked you where your boyfriend was and you didn't correct me. You just accepted it."
y/n: "Oh. I guess it just slipped out."
best friend: "No, this is good! We need you to get used to it all in order for this to work, remember?"
y/n: "Right..."
best friend: "So, what do you want to do today?"
y/n: "I don't know. I was going to clean our dorm room. It's a mess."
best friend: "The RA isn't coming until next week. That can wait."
[Y/N's phone rings]
best friend: "Better answer that. It's probably Soobin. I mean, your boyfriend."
y/n: (silence)
best friend: "What?"
y/n: "It's not Soobin."
best friend: "Oh."
y/n: "It's my dad."
best friend: "He probably needs help at the shop."
y/n: "In the real universe, he doesn't do shit."
best friend: "Oh. I'm sorry, I completely forgot. So are you gonna answer it?"
[Y/N answers call]
y/n: "Hello?"
dad: "Hello there, stranger! How have you been?"
y/n: "Good."
dad: "Listen, I need help at the shop today. Could you come down in an hour?"
y/n: (silence)
dad: "[y/n], are you there?"
y/n: "Yeah."
dad: "Is everything alright? Is your stomach hurting?"
y/n: "No."
dad: "What's wrong?"
y/n: "Nothing. I'll be there in an hour."
dad: "Thank you so much. I'll see you then. I love--"
(call ended)
best friend: "Are you okay?"
y/n: "Yes. Not really. I don't know."
best friend: "You don't have to go."
y/n: "Maybe in my world, I don't. But in this one, I do. You said my dad and I are close, right?"
best friend: "Right."
y/n: "That is going to take a lot of getting used to..."
best friend: "Say that you can't stay for too long or something."
y/n: "I miss my mom..."
best friend: "You barely talk to her."
y/n: "But why?"
best friend: "How am I supposed to know? You know who would? Soobin or Serena."
y/n: "I can't ask them that. They'd think I was going nuts. They already do."
best friend: "Then, what are you gonna do?"
y/n: "I'm going to go to my dad's so-called popular diner and work for a little. See what the bum is up to in this universe."
best friend: "Yeesh. You sound and look scary right now. Tone it down a bit before you go in or you might bite his head off."
y/n: "How can I tone down years of anger and resentment?"
best friend: "Choi Yeonjun has your phone number."
y/n: (grins) "This is why you're my best friend."
best friend: (grins) "Better late than never."
