Performance Audiobook Script

Min-guk notices Hani and speaks to her in a playful tone.

Min-guk:    Oh? It’s Hani! Hey, Hani~
Dae-hwan:    He’s always like this…
Hani:     Hi, guys!
Dae-hwan:    Hey~
Hani:     What were you guys playing?
Min-guk:    We were playing Red Light, Green Light.
Dae-hwan:    Wanna join? (giving Min-guk a look) It’s Min-guk’s turn to be “it.”
Min-guk:    (avoiding Dae-hwan’s gaze) Since Hani’s here, let’s do rock-paper-scissors again!
Dae-hwan:    Again?
Min-guk:    Yeah!
Dae-hwan:    You’re just trying to avoid being “it,” aren’t you?
Min-guk:    No, no. A new person joined, so of course we gotta start fresh!
Dae-hwan:    Ugh, fine…
Hani:     Hey guys! Instead of that, why don’t we play house?
Min-guk:    Yeah, let’s do it!
Dae-hwan:    (raising his hand) I’m the dad!
Min-guk:     I’m the dad! You… you be the dog.
Dae-hwan:    Why am I always the dog? I want to be a person too!
Hani:    Let’s settle it fairly with rock-paper-scissors! Ready, rock-paper-scissors!
Min-guk:    Yes!
Dae-hwan:    Best of three! Rock-paper-scissors! Rock-paper-scissors! Rock-paper-scissors!

Dae-hwan loses three rounds in a row.

Dae-hwan:    Sigh… Fine, I’ll be the dog.
Hani:     Alright, then! Dae-hwan’s the dog, Min-guk’s the dad, and I’ll be the mom!
Dae-hwan, Min-guk: Got it!
