(Kim steps off the bus and begins walking home. Suddenly, she stops in her tracks. The strange feeling she experienced on the bus rushes back, consuming her thoughts).
Kim (mutters to herself,): "Huh... what is happening to me? Why did I feel like Dr. Hyun was on that bus? But how could he even be here? Huh... this is all just because I keep thinking about him too much. Let it be. Let's just go."
[– INT. Kim Seo's Apartment – Night]
(With a heavy heart, Kim Seo unlocks her front door, turns the key, and pushes it open. The moment the door swings wide, her jaw drops. She freezes in absolute shock at the sight before her, and her anger flares up instantly.)
(The entire living room is a complete disaster zone. The coffee table in front of the sofa is cluttered with mess, and several empty cup-noodle containers are strewn across the floor, rolling around. Sitting comfortably on the sofa with their legs stretched out, completely absorbed in a dramatic K-drama playing on the TV, are Ma Ha-rin and Jun-u. Both are happily slurping noodles from their cups, totally oblivious and indifferent to the trash-heap state of the house.)
JUN-U & MA HA-RIN: (Turning their heads in perfect unison at the sound of the door, without even taking their eyes off the TV screen, speaking cheerfully) "Oh! You're home!"
(Kim Seo storms into the middle of the room, stomping her foot in sheer frustration. She points aggressively at the absolute chaos around them.)
KIM SEO: (Voice cracking with a mixture of anger and disbelief, yelling) "What on earth is going on here?! Look at this absolute mess! Jun-u, you literally just got discharged from the hospital today! And the moment you come home, you are eating this garbage cup-noodle food? And Ma Ha-rin, you too? why are you enabling him?!"
JUN-U: (Waving his chopsticks defensively, giving an excuse, and looking over at Ha-rin with complete carefreeness) "What is all this fuss about? Ma Ha-rin will clean it all up anyway!"
(Ma Ha-rin stops chewing her noodles mid-bite and snaps her head toward Jun-u, glaring at him with wide, furious eyes, shocked that he is putting all the blame on her.)J
JUN-U: (Seeing Ha-rin's terrifying expression, he immediately gets nervous and quickly corrects himself) "Uh... I mean, both of us! We will clean it up together! And honestly, after eating that bland hospital food, my taste buds were completely dead. We were both starving, so we just grabbed a quick bite. What's the big deal in that!"
MA HA-RIN: (Jumping in to diffuse the tension and change the subject) "Exactly! Let it go, Kim. Why don't you join us? (Suddenly noticing Kim's hands) Oh! Oho! What is this? Did you bring this huge bouquet back with you? I thought you wouldn't bring it
(Hearing this, Kim Seo's face instantly turns from pale to tomato red. She awkwardly and hurriedly hides the massive bouquet behind her back, speaking in a strict, defensive tone.)
KIM SEO: "Shut up, you! I And yes, I am going to freshen up. By the time I come out, this entire mess better be cleaned up, or else!"
(Kim Seo turns on her heel, stomping away toward her room. Jun-u sits up slightly on the sofa, cutting her off and shouting loudly.)
JUN-U: "Wait! Who gave you this bouquet?!"
KIM SEO: (Halting near her door, turning back with a sharp, angry glare) "Why do you care who gave it to me! Mind your own business, take care of yourself, and look at your own leg!"
(With that, she slams her bedroom door shut. The living room falls into a tense silence. Jun-u's expression turns completely serious as his over-protective brotherly instincts flare up. He turns sharply toward Ma Ha-rin.)
MA HA-RIN: (Raising her hands in mock surrender, looking back at Jun-u )(TO LIED) "Huh! Don't look at me, I have absolutely no idea who gave it to her. Huh! I am going to get the cleaning supplies right now, otherwise, Kim is going to rip my ears off when she comes out.
("Ma Rin leaves from there quickly so that Junu doesn't ask anything further. Junu cannot get up from the sofa quickly because of his legs. Junu: 'Hey, wait Ma Rin! Tell me, who gave Kim the bouquet? Even with these legs, I will deal with both of you.')
[– INT. Kim Seo's Bedroom – Night]
Cut to: Kim Seo finishes freshening up, changes into comfortable clothes, and steps into her quiet room. The lights are dimly lit. Her eyes fall directly upon the beautiful, fragrant bouquet resting on her study table. She walks over, standing right in front of it, and stares at it deeply, lost in thought.)
KIM SEO: (Looking at the flowers, muttering to herself with a slight pout) "Seriously... Dr. Hyun couldn't just come up to me and say a proper 'sorry' face-to-face? Instead, he had to send this huge bouquet and turn my entire office into a dramatic public spectacle? Huh..."
(She gently touches a soft petal with her fingertip. The moment she feels its softness, her irritation slowly melts away into a small, warm smile.)
KIM SEO: "But honestly... what is the fault of these innocent flowers? They are way too beautiful to just throw away. Huh, let's do one thing..."
(Moving very gently, she carefully plucks a few vibrant, beautiful petals. She opens her drawer and pulls out her personal diary. She places the petals neatly between the pages, pressing the diary shut with deep affection and care, as if safely locking his apology away in her heart.)MA HA-RIN: (Shouting loudly from the living room) "Kim!"
KIM SEO: (Quickly hiding the diary back in its place, calling back loudly) "Yeah, I'm coming!"
(Kim turns off her bedroom light and walks out.)
[– INT. Dr. Hyun's Luxury Apartment – Night]
(Cut to: The front door of Dr. Hyun's luxury flat opens. Dr. Hyun walks in, practically glowing with a massive wave of happiness and energy that hasn't been seen in days. He is smiling to himself. But as he steps into the living room, he notices Sun-woo is already there, occupying his couch and staring intensely at the TV screen with a video game controller in hand.)
(Seeing Hyun walk in, Sun-woo pauses the game, jumps off the couch, and walks straight up to him. He stops, completely stunned by the huge, lovestruck smile plastered across Hyun's face.)
SUN-WOO: "Hey! I called you so many times! Why didn't you pick up your phone? And why are you smiling like an idiot? What happened to make you this happy?"
DR. HYUN: (Taking off his coat and hanging it up, taking a deep, relaxed breath and smiling widely) "Oh, I met Kim."
SUN-WOO: (Eyes widening in pure shock, snapping back) "What did you say?! Seriously? Did you talk to her?"
DR. HYUN: (Sitting down on the sofa, shaking his head with a grin) "No, she just happened to be on the same bus."
(Dr. Hyun excitedly details the entire bus sequence to Sun-woo like a happy teenager—how Kim held his bouquet tightly even in her deep sleep, and how she unconsciously rested her forehead against his hand to stay warm.)
SUN-WOO: (After listening to the entire story, he stares at Hyun with a completely blank, deadpan expression) "Huh... so let me get this straight. There was absolutely no conversation between you two? You just sat next to her while she was completely unconscious, and that's it? Wow, you are officially losing your mind!"
DR. HYUN: (Laughing softly, changing the subject) "By the way, what are you doing here?"
SUN-WOO: "Oh, I came over because I wanted to play video games with you, and I also wanted to fill you in on all the crazy drama that went down at the office today regarding your grand flower delivery.
"DR. HYUN: (Walking toward the kitchen to pour a glass of water, smiling calmly) "Its okay, you don't need to tell me because you are way too late. Ma Ha-rin already told me everything when she came to the hospital to pick up Jun-u for his discharge."
SUN-WOO: (Pouting, throwing his hands up in mock anger) "So my presence isn't even required anymore, since Ma Ha-rin tells you everything first! Fine. Well, luck is definitely on your side tonight, which is why you ran into Kim. But what's next, Dr. Hyun?"
DR. HYUN: (Holding his glass of water, pausing to think with a slightly serious, thoughtful expression) "I don't know... let's figure that out tomorrow. For now, let's just play a game. It will make my exhaustion disappear.
"SUN-WOO: (Smirking confidently, picking up both controllers and tossing one directly at Hyun) "Yeah, let's do it! And just so you know, you are going down tonight. I am absolutely going to destroy you!"
DR. HYUN: (Catching the controller cleanly in mid-air, smiling with absolute confidence) "Yeah? We'll see about that."
(The camera slowly pans back from the two friends as they sit down to play. The colorful light of the TV screen reflects across their faces, and with the upbeat sound effects of the game, the screen fades to black.)
