14 Believe me

Bong Soon:(confused)  Am I daydreaming, that looks like Soo Hyun.

Mi Nam:What are you doing down there?

Bong Soon: (whispering) Hush down .Did you also see a boy enter?

Mi Nam: (whispering) Yeah he's right in front of you.

Bong Soon: I'll get up when he's gone.

Manager :What are you two doing down there can't you see Soo Hyun is here.

He drags them up and Soo Hyun seems surprised by Bong Soon whilst she's mostly embarrassed.

Soo Hyun: What are you doing here?

Manager: She's our new employee she's a friend of Mi Nam. (whispering) I heard she's been having financial problems at home so I just wanted to help.

Soo Hyun: (smirking) Okay then.

Manager: You two get to work!

Bong Soon starts getting taught the basics by Mi Nam.

Bong Soon: What is he doing here?

Mi Nam: Rumour has it he owns this place.

Bong Soon: What !

Manager :I said get to work. I didn't ask you to gossip !

Soo Hyun takes off his jacket and rolls up his sleeves .He goes behind the counter and starts kneading the dough.

Bong Soon: (confused) If he's the owner why is he working with us ?

Mi Nam: I don't know he always comes on Saturdays and makes the same dish then leaves.

Bong Soon: I don't get what goes on in his mind.

Mi Nam :Neither do I.

Mi Nam goes to the kitchen and Bong Soon is just left with Soo Hyun on the counter .She keeps on waiting for customers to come in.

Bong Soon:Howcome you're here.Weren't you supposed to come back tomorrow ?

Soo Hyun: (smiling) That's cute ,you were waiting for me to come back.

Bong Soon: I didn't say that,I could care less.

Soo Hyun: Well we were, but we had to come back early .Some people were caught doing some stuff.

Bong Soon: Ouu what stuff.

Soo Hyun: (looking at her)Grown up stuff.

She chokes then he just smirks.The door then opens and Bong Soon rushes to the door to greet the customers but they could care less about her.Its a large group of girls . The restaurant goes from 2 customers to full capacity. All of them seem to be checking out Soo Hyun.

Bong Soon: Awee that's why there were alot of girls last time.

Soo Hyun overhears her and just smiles

Bong Soon: But he isn't even all that.Why waste a good day like this on a guy like him.

The manager over hears her.

Manager :Never say anything bad towards our Soo Hyun. He brings in the most customers.Look at him isn't he just a dream.

Bong Soon: Dream my foot.

Manager: Aish you little.

Bong Soon: (staring straight into his eyes)What!

Manager: (scared)Aish you don't have to get all gangster on me.

Soo Hyun just keeps on smiling listening to them.They serve the huge crowd of girls .Soo Hyun makes his dish then tastes it and leaves.Mi Nam soon after leaves as well.

Bong Soon: Can I leave too?

Manager:(laughing) No,it's your turn to do the dishes now.

She enters the kitchen and there's a huge pile of dirty dishes.

Bong Soon: (sobbing)Argh more customers more work for me.

After hours of slaving off she leaves the kitchen and heads back to the counter where she sees Myung Soo and Won Ho waiting for her.

Won Ho:(laughing)  You look terrible.

Bong Soon: Argh have you come to save me?

Myung Soo: (laughing)No we're just passing by .I just wanted to see how you look in your uniform.

Bong Soon : How did you even know I'd be here?

Myung Soo:(smirking)  I have my ways .

Bong Soon: (pissed off) You called my mom didn't you?

Myung Soo: (smiling) And she sang like a bird.

Bong Soon: (annoyed) Well you've seen me now leave.

Manager: Is that how you treat customers!

Bong Soon: They didn't even buy anything .

Won Ho: I was just about to.

Bong Soon :Aish  you little..

Manager :What!

Bong Soon: Aish nothing .

Myung Soo: Come on Shin let's go .

Manager: (sulking) Noooo!

Myung Soo: (excitedly)Fighting Bong Soon!

Bong Soon: (exhausted ) Fighting

They leave

Manager:(angry) You little...

Bong Soon :What!

Manager: (scared)Nothing ...(sulking to himself) They could've brought in more customers...

early evening

Manager: You can go now

Bong Soon: Really?

Manager: Yes go on before I change my mind!

Bong Soon quickly grabs her things then leaves .She waits outside for Mr Cho to arrive but someone else arrives.

MEANWHILE:... at the Chan residence

Mr Chan:Did you check your room's CCtV footage ?

Min Ho: Did that little punk Myung get inside my room ?

Mr Chan: Just take a look for yourself

.....

Soo Hyun:  Get in.

Bong Soon:  I'm waiting for someone.

Soo Hyun: He's not coming.

Bong Soon: Why not?

Soo Hyun: I asked him not to?

Bong Soon:(annoyed)  Arghh

Soo Hyun: Get in it's late you don't want to get lost again.

Bong Soon thinks for a moment then eventually gets inside the car.

Soo Hyun: You never replied me.

Bong Soon: Just take me home.

Soo Hyun :I'm taking you home.

They arrive at a house like Bong Soons but it's not her home.

Bong Soon: Where are we?

Soo Hyun: Home .

Bong Soon: This is not my house.

Soo Hyun: This is my home.

Bong Soon: Why are we here?

Soo Hyun: I just wanted to show you where I live .

Bong Soon: Why?

Soo Hyun: Get out of the car then I'll tell you.

He exits the car and opens the door for her.She hesitates a little then exits the car.

Bong Soon:Now tell me.

Soo Hyun: Well you've been to Won Ho's place. You even spent the night at Min Ho's place do you know how that makes me feel.

Bong Soon:Jeez have you been stalking me.

Soo Hyun: No I'm just a jealous boy.Is that a crime?

He grabs her hand then drags her inside the house.They suddenly walk in into Mr Baek making out with Hae Ra .Hae Ra looks embarrassed Soo Hyun looks broken and Bong Soon is in shock

Mr Baek:Ahh Soo Hyun you're here already.

Soo Hyun  grabs Bong Soon's hand and exits the house.He just stands outside really angry

Bong Soon: Soo Hyun are you okay?

Soo Hyun: Get inside the car.

Bong Soon: Soo Hyun.

Soo Hyun:  I said get in!

Bong Soon just stares at him.  She takes his  car keys.

Bong Soon: Get inside the car.

He just stands there.Bong Soon helps him get inside the car.She then drives from the house then just parks at this random place.

They both get out the car and sit at the hood of the car.

Bong Soon: You can scream or cry or shout I won't tell anyone.

Soo Hyun just keeps quiet.

Bong Soon starts shouting at the sky

Bong Soon: I hate my new job!

Soo Hyun smiles

Soo Hyun :(he also shouts)Why do you hate it!

Bong Soon: Because of Baek Soo Hyun!

Soo Hyun: What did he do!

Bong Soon: He brought in alot of customers!

Soo Hyun: Its good for business!

Bong Soon: I had to do all the dishes!

They both just laugh.

Bong Soon: Do you feel better?

Soo Hyun: I'm just fine,this isn't the first time he's done this.

Bong Soon: I'm sorry .

Soo Hyun: It's okay.Sometimes I just wish he'd died instead of her.I miss my mom..

He  starts crying and Bong Soon hugs him trying to comfort him.He slightly pulls away from the hug still holding her looking at her almost teary eyes

Soo Hyun: You shouldn't cry because of me

Bong Soon: I...

Soo Hyun suddenly kisses Bong Soon.

They have a little moment then she stops him

Bong Soon: She's alive.

Soo Hyun: Who?

Bong Soon: Your mom is alive.

Soo Hyun: (annoyed)She's dead ,If you don't like me you can just tell me.

Bong Soon :No I'm not lying I saw her

Soo Hyun: (chuckles) Dont tell me you see ghosts

Bong Soon: No I really saw her.She's at the hospital my dad works at.

Soo Hyun:(sarcastic)  Aww my dead mother is at a hospital.

Bong Soon: Yes I saw her .Shes in a coma.

Soo Hyun: (sarcastic) Well take me to my dead my mom then.

They get to the hospital. Bong Soon leads him to the room.They arrive there and the room is empty

Soo Hyun: (sarcastic) What a surprise

Bong Soon: I'm telling you I saw her.

She asks a nurse

Random nurse :We haven't had any patient in that room(she walks away)

Bong Soon: I'm certain I saw her .Even my dad saw her.

Soo Hyun: Well where is she then?

Bong Soon: I don't know.

Soo Hyun: Wow props to you and here I thought you cared only to kick me when I'm down

Bong Soon: You have to believe me I saw her.

She takes out her phone.

Bong Soon: Look I even took pictures .

Soo Hyun: What is this?This is not funny.

Bong Soon: I'm telling you ,she was here.

Soo Hyun:These could be photoshoped

Bong Soon: Do you seriously think I would do that.

Soo Hyun: Well I don't know what to think anymore.

Bong Soon: Trust me.I swear on my life she was here.I saw her on Wednesday.

Soo Hyun: Awe if it's true then why did you keep quiet until now.When were you going to tell me?

Bong Soon: Well I wasn't sure yet.

Soo Hyun :How can you not plan on telling me about my mother!

Bong Soon: I wasn't sure you didn't know  she's alive.

Soo Hyun: Why would you think that?

Bong Soon: Because I saw your dad with her!

Soo Hyun:My dad?

Bong Soon: Yes I followed him here .He spent a couple minutes inside with her but I couldn't hear anything .

Soo Hyun:So you're telling me my dad knows my mom is alive but isn't telling me?

Bong Soon: Yes even though it might sound weird.

Soo Hyun: Weird! This is totally crazy!

Bong Soon:I know it's weird ,I thought something fishy was going on ,I was going to tell everyone once I was sure.

Soo Hyun:  What ?Do you think my dad kidnapped my dead mom.

Bong Soon: Well since no one knows she's alive I'll say yes.

Soo Hyun: (chuckles) You're unbelievable .

Bong Soon :Please believe me.

Soo Hyun: (frustrated) Argh let's just leave.

He drops her of at home then just drives off

B.S dad:Princess you're here.

Bong Soon: Yes dad,I'm going to sleep bye.

B.S mom: Was the first day at work that bad?

Bong Soon:Yes

She heads to her room

B.S dad:Why do I feel like it has nothing to do with work.

B.S mom:She didn't even give us a chance to warn her.

B.S dad:She'll be fine.

She enters her room and there he is
