Best friends
First day


Mamá
Jungkook, I called you 20 minutes ago. You're going to be late.


Jungkook
I'm sorry. I was organizing

Mamá
Okay. Eat quickly.


Jungkook
I think I'll grab something to eat in the cafeteria. Besides, you haven't eaten anything since yesterday.

Mamá
Okay. But don't go without eating all day.


Jungkook
Okay, Mom. I'll see you later.


Jimin
I think you took a while to leave your house, didn't you?


Jungkook
Sorry to keep you waiting. Has class started yet?


Taehyung
You're in luck. The teacher is sick and we have two hours free.


Jungkook
Did the teacher get sick? Is he okay?


Jimin
He has a very bad case of the flu. That's why he can't come.


Jungkook
What makes you think we'll have the two hours free? You could have sent a workshop or even a substitute could come and cover.


Jimin
We know perfectly well that the teacher doesn't like to teach.


Taehyung
So what is a teacher for then?


Jungkook
Perhaps he did it out of obligation. But it's not good to assume things.


Jimin
Anyway. Changing the subject... Who do you like, Jungkook?


Taehyung
Hey! It's true... You never told us


Jungkook
Since when are you interested in my love life?


Jimin
Always has been. Now he speaks.


Taehyung
I don't know if it's a good idea to pressure him to say who he likes. Isn't it awkward?


Jungkook
It would be if I liked someone. But I don't. So, that's a closed subject.


Jin
Wow. This is a very interesting conversation, but I need you to be quiet right now. Thank you.


Taehyung
And who are you?


Jin
The substitute teacher. Namjoon got the flu and I'm here to replace him while he recovers.


Jungkook
Hi sir...


Jin
You can call me Mr. Kim. Thank you.


Taehyung
How old are you?


Jimin
TAEHYUNG


Jimin
Excuse me, Mr. Kim. We didn't mean to offend you.


Jin
I'll just say this. I know everyone's age here, and I'm only a few years older than you. Although at first glance, I look about 20.


Jimin
I know! I thought I was the only one who thought that. You're really young.


Taehyung
And grumpy...


Jimin
KIM TAEHYUNG


Jungkook
Stop playing around. The substitute teacher surely has work to do. It's best if we remain silent. We must obey his orders.


Jin
Wow. What well-mannered young people.


Taehyung
Thank you very much


Jin
I'm referring to Mr. Park and Mr. Jeon. You still have to earn my trust.


Jimin
Sir... Tae isn't like that. He just misses his teacher. That's all.


Jin
I understand. I'm sorry.


Taehyung
No. I'm sorry, Mr. Kim... I wasn't respectful...


Jin
Don't worry. I wasn't either.


Yoongi
Mr. Kim, can I sleep?


Jimin
How about we go to my house? Do you want to watch a movie?


Jungkook
Are you sure there's no exam?


Taehyung
I agree with Kook. The last time we went out together, we stayed at your place and the next day we went to uni together. What happened after that?


Jungkook
THERE WAS AN EXAM


Jimin
I know it was wrong not to remember the exam, but I swear I wrote everything down and there's no trace of any assessments. I promise.


Taehyung
Jungkook, is that true?

Jungkook was known as the most studious student in the class. He was also the one who always wrote down everything the teachers said.


Jimin
HEY! WHY DO YOU DISTRUSTFUL OF ME?


Taehyung
You know that if it weren't for Jungkook, we'd be lost. Accept it.


Taehyung
He even writes down things he shouldn't. He has such a fast hand and such a good memory that he can remember and write everything down.


Jimin
What do you mean by everything?


Taehyung
I mean, you can write down what the teachers explain. What they say that isn't on the board.


Jimin
Come on, I'm not underestimating him, but is that even possible?


Taehyung
For Jungkook, nothing is impossible. He's a little golden man.


Jimin
Little man... Gold


Jimin
One moment


Jimin
I know what we can call you!


Jungkook
¿Uh?


Jimin
Golden Maknae


Taehyung
Wow. That name is so Jungkook!


Jimin
You're the youngest of the three of us and you're the best student in the class. I mean, you excel in every subject at university.


Jungkook
I don't think I deserve to be called that... I'm not that perfect. I'm not even perfect! I'm just an ordinary person.


Taehyung
It's time to change your perspective


Jungkook
What do they mean by that?


Jimin
It's time to love yourself and stop hating and insulting yourself


Jungkook
I don't hate myself. What nonsense. You know what? I don't think Mom will let me go with you guys today. So I'll see you tomorrow. If you want, we can hang out.


Taehyung
You get away this time, but you won't be safe tomorrow.


Jimin
Leave him alone already, hahaha. Come on, Tae.


Jimin
We love you, Kook. Don't forget it.


Jungkook
Okay. Goodbye, guys.


Taehyung
Why is he so distant with us?


Jimin
He must have his reasons. It's best if we let him think about it from time to time...


Taehyung
You're right

*Jungkook stayed for a while in the place where the three had been talking earlier, and as the boys walked away, Jungkook said*


Taehyung
Jungkook... You can see he's suffering inside, no matter how much he smiles.


Jimin
Listen. We can't keep allowing this. We have to make him see what he can't see.


Jimin
We're going to help him understand that he deserves all the good things in the world and much more. We're his best friends.


Taehyung
Because of Jungkook?


Jimin
By Jungkook.
