MR. YOON & MRS. YOON exchange glances
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
He’s back from America.
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
But… why would you ask about him all of a sudden?
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
...If I'm not wrong we—
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
You two were never close, Seona...Just classmates.
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
Acquaintances at most.
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(Stiffens. Confused)
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(thinking)
Wait… What?
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
He’s married now, anyway.
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(shocked)
…What?
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
Yeah.
To his maid.
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(Heart drops)
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(internally)
His… what?
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
(chuckles bitterly)
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
Some low-born girl from his mansion....They got married two months ago, right after he returned.
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
We were all shocked...Thought his parents would never allow it.
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
But I guess he didn’t care🤷🏻♀️
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
Forget about him, Seona.
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
There was never anything between you two.
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(Panic rising in her chest)
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(out loud)
But I…
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
We were… engaged, weren’t we?
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
(looks confused)
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
That arrangement was broken off even before your accident.
Mr. Yoon (FL father)
You didn’t care...Said you weren’t interested.
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
No. No no no no...
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
*He's supposed to be mine*
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
*I'm supposed to marry him*
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
*I'm the same Seona who was supposed to marry Jaehyun…*
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
*But he’s married now…
To his maid?*
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
*Why a maid?*
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
(breath quickening)
*And five years...it's been five years...Jaehyun's married...My baby...Minji...Where the hell are they?*
She clenches the bedsheets, breath shallow
Yoon Seona/ Eunchae (FL)
Minji...
You didn't...
[MRS. YOON walks over and holds her hand]
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
Honey, don’t stress yourself. You’re still healing.
Mrs. Yoon (FL mom)
Let go of these odd thoughts. You’ll feel like yourself again soon.
[SEONA looks at her with teary, disbelieving eyes]
