AT MINHYUKβS HOUSE
Minhyuk was upset. He felt like heβs incompetent. He didnβt even feel like a drama club president. Some people left although that had nothing to do with him and ever since Changsoo became more involved with the Drama Club, he felt more like the president and not him.
Minhyuk decided to give Brina a call to let it all out.
βBrina babyβ¦β¦I hope I’m not bothering you right now.β Minhyuk said in a childish and whiney voice.
βOh, Minhyuk, what now? What are you upset about now?β
βThat Changsoo, I donβt like himβ¦..Did you see earlier at the club? Everyone listened to him but they didnβt even consider a word I saidβ¦β Minhyuk was right, Brina couldnβt doubt what Minhyuk was saying but she didnβt know how to comfort himβ¦..
βMinnie, there is nothing you can doβ¦β¦.cus Chang Soo’s family owns the school so the other students think that they have to be on their good behavior in front of himβ¦please be the bigger man and understandβ¦..your time will come to shineβ¦..β Brina gave her man some sound and wise advice. She didnβt say what he wanted to hear but something he needed to hear.
βOkayβ¦.β Minhyuk didnβt like what Brina said so he decided to sleep it off for tonight.
βGoodnight dearβ¦..Iβm gonna try to get some sleep for nowβ¦.β
βSorry Minnieβ¦.please donβt compare yourself with Changsoo too much if you could help itβ¦.You have your own strength and I love you just the way you are okay?β Brina tried her best to be encouraging to the best of her ability.
βOkayβ¦β Minhyuk was pouting on the other end which Brina couldnβt see since they werenβt doing facetime or anything like that.
βI love youβ¦.Minnieβ¦β said Brina.
βLove you tooβ¦..Brinnieβ¦β said Minhyuk.
The Minbrina couple hung up. Brina couldnβt help but to be worried about Minhyuk while he was gonna just suck it up and get some sleep for now.
AT BONGSOONβS HOUSE
Earlier during the day when the kids were at school, Bongsoonβs mom went to her local Buddhist temple and made sure to get some charms and talisman for good luck. Bongsoonβs mom really wanted Yoo Changsoo to be her son in law and she wanted her daughter to not just date him, but to one day marry him.
However, Bongsoonβs younger brother Bongki does not like him and itβs because he has heard rumors about him in school that heβs a famous player and a womanizer.
βNoona, please donβt date Changsooβ¦he is a womanizer and I donβt understand mom eitherβ¦Why is she so obsessed in trying to make him her son in law, anyways? What does she see in that stupid player?β Bongki was very protective of his big sister, almost like a big brother.
βBongki ya, donβt worryβ¦Iβm your big sisterβ¦..I know what I am doing. And besides, Changsoo has been a gentleman to meβ¦.I know itβs hard to believe but itβs true.β Bongsoon tried to reassure his lil bro that Changsoo is not a bad guy.
Bongsoonβs mom came back from the Buddhist temple and she was smiling because the fortune teller told her that Changsoo is a perfect fit for Bongsoon.
βIβm back kiddos! Bongsoonβ¦.invite Changsoo over again! I want to make him some delicious dinnerβ¦Ohhh Iβm so excited to prepare my future son in law something really nice ….β said Bongsoonβs mom excitedly.
AT CHANGSOOβS HOUSE
Changsoo thought about everything thatβs been happening in school, at the drama club and even his personal life. Changsoo always had to compete with his brothers for the inheritance of his family business from a very young age. Changsoo is only in high school but he has to compete for that spot with his brothers and he thought this whole thing is ridiculous. Changsoo is very close to his mother but he has beef with his older brothers. Part of the reason why he became a womanizer is because of stress at home. They always lectured him on how they will find a mate for him to marry when the time comes but the personβs family has to match their status so they would be able to expand their business.
Changsoo wasnβt a fan of arranged marriages and every time the family tried to set him up with somebody at such a young age he had a hard time accepting it. He loves his mom especially so he wants to respect her wishes but at the same time he couldnβt really accept the candidates that they wanted him to meet and this is why he was just aimlessly meeting people. Whatβs the use of falling in love when he canβt marry them so this is why he became a player. He is sad because nobody knows this about him, people just gossip that he is a heartless womanizer cus he enjoys hurting women. That’s so not true. He just doesnβt want to fall in love because he knows that he wonβt be able to take responsibility for that love but now after going through so much in the last few months, he wants to pursue real love. He wants to give up his old ways. He wants to be a real man. Another reason why he was living the way he did was because he was scared of giving up his status quo but after meeting Bongsoon that changed. Changsoo was lying in bed thinking to himself.
βI miss Bongsoon.β He tried his best not to hit on Bongsoonβ¦Looking back at his old self, he would have done it by now and then kicked her to the curve but he couldnβt do that with her.
Changsoo wanted to text her but he didnβt want to come off too strong, this was a dilemma for him. How does he show interest in Bongsoon without coming off creepy? He did not know the answer to that and it frustrated him to no end.
βI miss Bongsoonβ¦.I want to talk to herβ¦.β Changsoo was rolling in bed not knowing what to do but he decided to just bite the bullet and text her.
βHi Bongsoon, what are you doing? I hope I am not bothering youβ¦β
βOh hi Changsoo, no you are not bothering meβ¦.my mom wants to invite you to our house againβ¦β
βIs that Changsooβ¦? My future son in lawβ¦.? Tell him to come overβ¦!β
βWhen, mother?β
βRight now?β Bongsoon asked, a little surprised.
βYes, right nowβ¦Tell him to come over now!β The mother exclaimed and Kyungshim was cheering her on in the background.
βMy mom wants you over here right now, Changsoo!β
βWhat???! Now?!!!β
βYep!β
Changsoo went over to Bongsoonβs house and he saw a giant table set up with a bunch of delicious food. Bongsoon, Bongoonβs mom, Bongsoonβs dad, Kyungshim and Bongki were all there to welcome him. Although Bongki was still protective of his sister.
βMom … .this guy is a player, why are you feeding him all this when you never gave me this kind of expensive stuff to me and my sister? Why are you discriminating and treating him better?β Bongki was just giving Changsoo a hard time and he was having fun doing it too.
βLook, Bongkiβ¦why are you being like that? Changsoo is a good boyβ¦rightβ¦Changsoo?β
βYes, motherβ¦β Changsoo smiled sweetly.
βMom, donβt be fooled by this well mannered bullcrapβ¦.this guy is a womanizer and he will hurt Bongsoon and I wonβt allow thatβ¦β
Bongsoonβs dad just looked at Changsoo and said,
βForget itβ¦if you are a womanizer donβt you dare come near my little girl..β
βNo, fatherβ¦Iβm actually not like thatβ¦I used to be like that but not nowβ¦β¦Bongsoon is the only one for me … .father, mother,,,,and you bratty littleβ¦I mean lovely little brotherβ¦β
Bongsoon felt so embarrassed by this and she wanted to just go somewhere and hide.
βYou guysβ¦stop it! Wellβ¦I have something to confessβ¦..I do like Changsoo and you canβt stop me from that!β
Bongsoon was surprised at herself for saying that since she is not the type that would confess anything like thatβ¦especially if she likes a boy.
Changsoo was happy that Bongsoon is the one who said it first because this way he wonβt have to feel like heβs hitting on her if he says something similar to her.
βMother, fatherβ¦and brotherβ¦please give us a chanceβ¦I like Bongsoon tooβ¦.β Changsoo didnβt know what came over him but he confessed his feelings for Bongsoon without coming off as creepy. Bongsoonβs mother was so happy and Kyungshim was too. While Bongki and Bongsoonβs father was trying their best to accept him.
AT YIHYUN AND SEBOMβS HOUSE.
Yihyun called Sebom on the phone. He is so glad that he got his phone number. He wanted to get to know her better because he realized that he has similar interests as her. However, he did feel bad that he couldnβt back her up earlier. Yihyun thought this would be a good excuse to call her and tell her that he is sorry for not supporting her at the drama club earlier today.
βHi Sebomβ¦β¦β
βOh heyβ¦.β
βWhat are you doing?β
βNothing much, just reading about stuffβ¦β
βOhβ¦yea? Oh I called cus I wanted to say Iβm sorry for not backing you up earlierβ¦β¦ya know with you butting heads with that Jina girl and her paranormal boyfriend Yeonwooβ¦β
βNo, itβs okayβ¦.I thought about it and I realized that I screwed up tooβ¦β
βHey, I was thinkingβ¦you want to go for a cup of coffee tomorrow? My treatβ¦β¦I think this will be a good way to make it up to youβ¦β¦I have to so I wonβt feel so badβ¦..β Yihyun let out a little sigh while smiling.
βOkay, go for itβ¦I love free drinksβ¦β Sebom scratched her head while letting out a small giggle.
AT DALBONGβS HOUSE
Dalbongβs dad is always busy, working his butt off at his tofu store to raise his family. He loves his family so much that he would go through anything for them. Dalbongβs mother passed away after giving birth to him so he always felt bad for his dad raising him and his brothers and sisters alone. Dalbong always felt guilty that his dad ended up taking care of the whole family by himself because of him. And this is the reason why he wanted to become someone so he could take care of his father one day. He was a bit of a troublemaker in elementary school and even middle schoolβ¦However, he wanted to be a different person as a high school student.
βDad, do you need help?β Dalbong asked.
βNoβ¦.Iβm fineβ¦..you should just go do your homeworkβ¦donβt worry about meβ¦β
βLet me help you dad,,,,,,I am younger and Iβm strongerβ¦Look at meβ¦..β
Dalbong was proud that he could be there for his dad. He looked at the Tofu that he made and was so happy that he is the proud son of a tofu maker. He was also thinking that he could take some Tofu to his friends one day and share it with them then tell them that He is a proud son of a tofu maker named Cha Soonbong.
Once he was done helping his dad he wanted to go call Seowool.
Dalbong was sitting on his bed and was getting ready to dial the number but for some reason he was very nervous to do so but he decided to muster up the courage and call Seowool anyways.
βHi Seowoolβ¦β
βOh Heyβ¦Dalbong, whatβs up?β
βDo you have time tomorrow?β
βOhβ¦of course after the Drama Club but why?β
βDo you want to go for a quick ice cream date before we head home from the Drama Club?β
βThat sounds great!β
βOkayβ¦.let’s go right after drama club!β
βOkay, Dalbong!β
Seowool hung up the phone with Dalbong, she was so happy that she finally got asked to go on a date with him.
As soon as Dalbong got off the phone with Seowool he decided to call Myungsoo and brag about it.
βHey, guess..what dude? I’m going out on a date with Seowool tomorrow!β
βOh really? Can I come?β
βWhat? How can youβ¦.youβll be bored because Iβm not gonna give you any attention!β
βDonβt worry Dalbong! Iβm gonna bring Kyungshim with me!β
βHow? She doesnβt even like you!β
βIβm gonna make her come with us! MUAHAHAHA! But when is it anyways?β
βAfter Drama Club!β
βYes! Count me in!β
Dalbong and Myungsoo hung up the phone and they were both excited to go on a date with the girl they like.
YEONWOOβS HOUSE
Jina practically lives at Yeonwooβs house because of Yeonwooβs grandma.
Yeonwoo and Jina were both in Yeonwooβs room. They were talking about what happened at the Drama club earlier.
βThanks for sticking up for me earlier Jinaβ¦You are such a great girlfriend!β
Yeonwoo kissed Jina real quick to let her know that he appreciates her.
βNo, I feel like Iβm doing my part for everyone. We are doing what we are good at to find a solution for those royaltiesβ¦β¦andβ¦..Yihyun and Sebom were doing the same although they took a slightly less open minded approach than we didβ¦β Jina said while sighing.
βTrue,,,,β Said Yeonwoo while nodding.
βI think we have a lot of hints to solving this problem and this means we could finally send the royalties back home and our drama club will be normal again right?β Jina smiled at her man.
βYesβ¦β Yeonwoo touched Jina on the face and kissed her.
AT EUNSOOβS PLACE
Eunsoo was kinda sad. She was starting to realize that they are gonna solve this mystery very soon, itβs more like they already kinda solved it since they found that dark spot/dark portal which will take the royalties back to their timeline.
Eunsoo knew that her time with Lee Hwan would be drawing to a close. She thought that Hwan could be a replacement to the love that was taken away by Jen but since she knew deep inside that this is not gonna work out either it made her sad. However, she wanted to cherish these moments with Hwan so she decided to make the best of it with what she has NOW!
βI like you, Hwannieβ¦.I donβt want you to leaveβ¦I know you have to but Iβm gonna miss you so muchβ¦β
Eunsoo leaned on Hwanβs shoulderβ¦.and he patted her on the head. Eunsoo couldnβt help but have thoughts that she shouldnβt have. Eunsoo wanted Hwan to make love to her but she was too scared to say itβ¦
βHwannieβ¦β Eunsoo said his name but couldnβt continue and then Hwan said something in this very soothing but deep voice.
βLookβ¦Eunsooβ¦.I have someone back home in Joseonβ¦.Min Jaeyi but I really cherish these moments I had with you Eunsooβ¦I donβt think I could ever forget itβ¦β¦β¦β
Before they knew it, the two were hugging. Their faces were so close that it made Eunsoo blush then Hwan was looking into her eyes and just kissed herβ¦..Eunsooβs eyes were dampβ¦Tears were dropping down her face then Hwan wiped her tears with his manly thumb.
Hwan was kissing her gently, romantically and even somewhat passionately as he was slowly undressing herβ¦β¦β¦.
AT SEONWOOβS HOUSE
Jen was over at Seonwooβs again. Seonwooβs mom did not mind her coming over to their house and even sharing a bed with him. In Seonwooβs momβs mind, Jen was already her daughter in law.
Seonwoo made Jen play that tape that Insoo gave her.
βAre you sure you want to do this? I donβt think I want to listen to itβ¦..β
Jen felt uncomfortable about listening to the song Insoo made for her.
βLetβs listen to it and get it out of the wayβ¦β Seonwoo said with a deep sigh. Jen decided to just hurry up and play it so she could get it out of the way already.
Jen pushed play and the music went.
I know I canβt have you
But I know I love you
It is so wrong because you are my friendβs girl
Oh but what can I do, only person I could think about is you
Please forgive me, but I will let you go nowβ¦.but know this
It will hurt me deep inside to completely let you go.
The song sounded so poetic and sad. Jen felt really uncomfortable and Seonwoo just comforted her.
βDonβt worry Jen. Iβm not madβ¦I understand how he feelsβ¦Sometimes it is hard to control these emotionsβ¦β¦but I know himβ¦He wonβt pursue you anymore so you won’t have to feel guiltyβ¦okay? Babe?β Seonwoo tried to make sure that Jen didnβt have to feel guilty.
Jen was in Seonwooβs arms crying but felt better after words.
βShould we throw that tape away?β Asked Jen.
βNo, donβt do thatβ¦..He put so much effort into making that songβ¦just keep itβ¦just donβt listen to it and think about him thoughβ¦β Seonwoo was messing around to make Jen laugh and it worked.
βSo, are you still friends?β
βOf course we areβ¦..this silly situation wonβt make our friendship go anywhereβ¦.β Seonwoo smiled again while patting Jen on the head then kissing her gently.
Jen was scared that this still made those two hate each other but fortunately, that wasnβt the case. Seonwoo and Jen fell asleep on the bed hugging each other tight.
AT JIYIβS ROOFTOP APARTMENT
Jiyi was sitting on the big wooden bench at her rooftop apartment. After what happened at the drama club earlier today has made Jiyi very sad just like Eunsoo. Jiyi even entertained the idea of going back to Shilla with him but the thing is, is that even possible? And if it is possible what would happen to her family? Her mom? Her dad? And her Brother? Sam Maekjong was observing Jiyi and realized that she is not as peppy as she usually is and it made him worried.
βJiyi ya, you okay?β
βYeahβ¦I think I am why? I donβt look okay to you?β
βYou seem to have a lot on your mindβ¦..β
βI kinda doβ¦.I thought I found somebody that I could connect with but I feel like thatβs not gonna last longβ¦β¦β
βYeahβ¦β¦I think Yeonwoo and them figured it outβ¦they found that dark spot/dark portal or whatever you call itβ¦β¦.and once they get it to activate it, I and Hwan would be able to go back to our timelinesβ¦..β
Jiyi started to cry and held onto Sam Maekjongβ¦
βSammieβ¦please donβt leave me behindβ¦Iβm scaredβ¦Do you have to go back to Shilla? Canβt you just stay here even if you found a way to go back home?β
Sam patted her on the head gently like patting a baby. He lifted up her chin and wiped her eyes with his long and manly fingersβ¦..He kissed Jiyi with everything he had and of course Jiyi returned that kissβ¦.
βI want to go back with you!β said Jiyi in her childish tone.
βBut how about your family? They will be worried if they realize that you disappeared and canβt find you ….β
βThatβs okayβ¦β¦.I would rather go back with youβ¦there is nothing going for me here anywaysβ¦β¦β
βBut the thing is if you go back, you would have competition thereβ¦β¦..A lot of women like me just like how Changsoo is well liked over hereβ¦would you be okay with that?β
Jiyi noddedβ¦
βI donβt care as long as Iβm with youβ¦β¦I donβt care about timelines, differences in class, and whatever might be separating usβ¦Nobody canβt take us apartβ¦.β
βOhβ¦Jiyi ya,.,,β Sam was shakingβ¦the core of him was shaking because what Jiyi said because it seemed so divine and profoundβ¦Only if Aro thought of him that way but no way since she was in love with his rival Moomyung while she treats him like a BUG ON THE GROUNDβ¦..
Sam shut Jiyi up by kissing her tenderly and he too started to undress her just like what Hwan did to Eunsoo.
Sam and Jiyi were finally, fully naked and were making love to each other till the break of dawn, once againβ¦..
