Scene 1: Morning Chaos and Hidden Closeness
(The soft morning light filters through the window, falling on Yun-Hee's face. She slowly opens her eyes and realizes how quickly time has passed. She jumps up and rushes straight to the kitchen, where Si-Woo has already turned it into a mess.)
Yun-Hee (shocked): "Oh my God! Si-Woo, what have you done to the kitchen?!"
Si-Woo (laughing): "I was making breakfast… but I think breakfast is making me!"
(Seeing flour scattered everywhere, broken eggs, and burnt toast, Yun-Hee takes a deep breath and pushes him out of the kitchen.)
Yun-Hee (angrily): "Enough! You are banned from entering the kitchen!"
(Si-Woo smiles mischievously, raising his hands in surrender. Just then, Mr. Kim enters the kitchen. His gaze lands on the light dusting of flour on Yun-Hee's cheek, and a faint smile plays on his lips.)
Mr. Kim (in a stern tone): "No need to cause an explosion while making breakfast."
(Yun-Hee is about to turn to him when suddenly, the hot pan handle touches her hand. She lets out a sharp cry of pain.)
Yun-Hee (wincing): "Ugh! It burned!"
(Without a word, Mr. Kim grabs her hand and takes her straight to the sink, placing it under cold water. Yun-Hee shivers slightly at his touch but remains silent. Si-Woo, panicking, runs to get some medicine.)
Mr. Kim (in a low voice, looking into Yun-Hee's eyes): "Do you not understand that you need to take care of yourself?"
(Yun-Hee is about to say something but suddenly realizes how close they are standing. Their faces are only inches apart. Her heart starts pounding.)
(Just then, Si-Woo returns with the medicine and, seeing them in this position, tries to suppress his laughter.)
Si-Woo (playfully): "Uh, sorry, did I come at the wrong time?"
(Mr. Kim glares at him and gently applies the ointment to Yun-Hee's palm. The touch of his fingers still sends a tingling sensation through her.)
Scene 2: Lunchtime Call from Mr. Kim
(It's lunchtime at the office, and Yun-Hee and Si-Woo are busy working. Suddenly, Yun-Hee's phone rings. Mr. Kim's name flashes on the screen. Annoyed, she picks up the call.)
Yun-Hee: "What now?"
Mr. Kim (seriously): "Did you have lunch?"
Yun-Hee (surprised): "What?"
Mr. Kim (calmly): "I asked if you had lunch or not."
Yun-Hee (pretending to be angry): "Yes, yes! I ate! Happy now?"
Mr. Kim (more relaxed): "What did you eat?"
Yun-Hee (rolling her eyes): "Since when did you become my dietitian?"
Mr. Kim (seriously): "Since you started neglecting your health."
(Yun-Hee falls silent for a moment. Hearing this makes her feel strange. Si-Woo watches her and smirks, whispering.)
Si-Woo (whispering): "Wow, Mr. Kim really cares about you!"
(Yun-Hee glares at him and quickly hangs up the phone. But the small smile on her face betrays her emotions. On the other side, Mr. Kim also smirks slightly before putting his phone down.)
Scene 3: Drunken Words at the Party and Mr. Kim's Entry
(At a party, Yun-Hee is with her friends. A guy who likes her starts getting too close. Si-Woo tries to keep him away, remembering how Mr. Kim had called at lunchtime to tell him to look after Yun-Hee.)
(In her slightly intoxicated state, Yun-Hee dials Mr. Kim's number.)
Yun-Hee (drunkenly, slurring): "Why…why are you so rude? You just give orders! I'm not your servant! Understand?!"
(She abruptly hangs up the call, but on the other end, Mr. Kim's expression darkens. He immediately grabs his car keys and speeds towards the party. When he arrives, he sees the guy getting too close to Yun-Hee.)
(In the next moment, Mr. Kim grabs the guy's collar and shoves him back. The entire party falls silent. His eyes burn with dangerous anger.)
Mr. Kim (in a deadly tone): "If you value your life, stay the hell away from my woman."
(Yun-Hee's eyes widen. "My woman?" But she doesn't get a chance to think further as Mr. Kim swiftly lifts her into his arms and carries her straight to his car.)
Scene 4: Growing Tension in the Car
(As soon as they get in the car, Mr. Kim reaches over to fasten Yun-Hee's seatbelt. His fingers brush against her cheek, and for a moment, their eyes lock. Yun-Hee's heart races.)
Yun-Hee (softly): "Why do you care who I was with?"
(Mr. Kim remains silent, then slowly places his hand on her shoulder, leaning in close. His lips are just near her ear, and his voice is deep and mysterious.)
Mr. Kim (whispering): "Because you are only mine."
Scene 5: Calling the Assistant and the Drive to the Mansion
(Mr. Kim, still holding Yun-Hee in his arms, quickly calls his assistant, Chan-Soo. His voice is sharp and commanding.)
Mr. Kim: "Take Si-Woo home and make sure he's okay. I'm taking Yun-Hee with me."
(Chan-Soo, a bit surprised, quickly replies.)
Chan-Soo: "Yes, sir. I'll handle it."
(Without another word, Mr. Kim hangs up and accelerates towards the mansion. Yun-Hee slumps into the backseat, her eyes hazy from the alcohol, still replaying the party events in her mind.)
(She slowly turns to look at Mr. Kim, who is driving, his jaw clenched, eyes filled with restrained anger.)
Yun-Hee (softly, with a slight chuckle): "Why are you always so strict?"
(Mr. Kim, without glancing at her, replies coldly.)
Mr. Kim: "I don't like seeing you being reckless."
(Yun-Hee looks at him and smiles. Somewhere deep down, she likes this possessive side of his, but she isn't ready to admit it yet.)
Yun-Hee (laughing, squinting her eyes): "So… you were worried about me?"
(Mr. Kim shoots her a deep look. There's something in his eyes that makes Yun-Hee's heart flutter. He doesn't answer—he just presses the accelerator harder.)
Scene 6: Arriving at the Mansion & Drunken Confessions
(As soon as they reach the mansion, Mr. Kim steps out and opens the car door for Yun-Hee. She stumbles slightly, still tipsy, but before she can fall, he catches her in his arms.)
(She finds herself pressed against him, their eyes locking. Time seems to freeze for a moment.)
Yun-Hee (softly): "Your arms… are so warm. Maybe I should just sleep here."
(Mr. Kim smirks slightly but quickly composes himself. Without hesitation, he lifts her into his arms and carries her inside.)
(Yun-Hee tries to protest but is too intoxicated to resist.)
Yun-Hee: "Hey! I can walk… you don't need to carry me!"
Mr. Kim (sternly): "Looking at your condition, I don't think so. Just be quiet."
(Yun-Hee looks at him, then smiles slightly. She knows how strict he seems, but deep down, he's incredibly caring.)
(Mr. Kim gently places her on the sofa and hands her a glass of water.)
Mr. Kim: "Drink this."
Yun-Hee (stubbornly): "No."
(With a sigh, Mr. Kim lifts the glass to her lips, his fingers briefly touching them. Her heart races as she silently drinks.)
(Mr. Kim watches her carefully, a small smirk forming on his lips.)
