Chapter 6
Maid: Who should I tell her is here?
Shadi: Shadi.
Maid: Right away.
Shadi: I’ll wait.
-The maid goes to inform Mark's mother-
Mark's Mother: Yes, yes, let him in.
Mark: Is that your husband, Mom?
Mark's Mother: He's your brother.
Mark (in shock): What did you say?
Mark's Mother: He's your brother.
Mark (angrily): Are you hiding a brother from me now?
Mark's Mother: Lower your voice. I’m your mother.
Mark (even angrier): I have every right to be upset!
Mark's Mother: Are you yelling at me now?
Shadi enters: Hello, Mom.
Mark (sharply): Did you say he’s my brother? Fine, I don’t accept him as my brother. What are you going to do about it?
Mark's Mother (even more sternly): You will accept him because he’s your brother, and you’ll visit him often.
-Mark angrily throws his phone-
Mark: I won’t accept anyone other than Jake as my brother!
Mark's Mother (sternly): Don’t defy my orders, because you know what will happen, right?
Mark raises his hair: Do you think I’m a child?
-The father was about to intervene, but the mother held him back-
Hana's Mother whispers: This isn’t our issue, don’t get involved.
Hana: Except he looks even more handsome when he’s angry.
Mark (angrily): Mom! Are you going to tell me where this arrogant guy came from?
Mark's Mother (calmly): He’s your brother from your father’s side, which means he’s your blood brother from your father.
Mark: Mom! Since when has Dad been hiding a brother from me?
Mark's Mother (yelling): Since when has your father loved you enough to tell you about his life?
Mark: So Dad doesn’t love me, but you do? Why didn’t you tell me?
Mark's Mother: I didn’t have the chance to tell you!
Mark: When would you have told me? When I died?
-She immediately slaps him and pulls him by the ear-
Mark: Ouch, ouch! And on top of that, you chose him over me, right? You prefer him!
-She tightens her grip on his ear-
Mark: Ouch, ouch! Stop it, I’m not a child!
-She drags him to her room with Shadi following-
Mark's Mother: My dear son.
Mark: I’m not your son.
Mark's Mother: Yes, you are. You’re my precious child.
Mark (jealously): He’s your son. You kept him so close that I didn’t even know I had a brother.
Mark's Mother: You’re my firstborn, you’re the one I spoil.
Mark (jealously): Do you love him more than me?
Mark's Mother laughs softly: Are you upset because you’re jealous that I’m spoiling someone other than you?
Mark (denying it): I’m not that jealous.
Mark's Mother: Don’t you want to know the story?
Mark: It’s obvious. Dad doesn’t want the person in front of me.
Mark's Mother: He’s your brother, Mark, your brother.
Mark: I don’t accept a stranger suddenly appearing in my life.
Mark's Mother: Actually, your father was very excited about him.
Mark: So?
Mark's Mother: Jake’s mother didn’t want him and was going to kill him.
Mark: What?! How could she kill a life like that?!
Mark's Mother: She killed her father too, if that shocks you.
Shadi and Mark (shocked): What?!
-She laughs softly-
Mark: Is that funny, Mom? How could she kill her father like that?
Mark's Mother: I don’t really know, but that’s what people say about her on the streets. Everyone calls her a killer, which is why she divorced your father.
Mark: Really, Mom? And you were pregnant with this idiot, right? You were afraid she’d kill him too, weren’t you?
Mark's Mother: Yes, and you were very strong to protect yourself. That’s how I raised you.
Mark (playfully): I’m also more handsome than him, right?
Shadi (jealously): Yeah, sure, he’s my older brother, but don’t favor him over me!
-Mark throws a pillow at him-
Mark: You, be quiet and don’t speak!
-Jake passes by and overhears what’s being said about his mother-
Jake (to himself): Am I not worthy enough to be Mark’s brother?
Ivan: Sir?
Jake (startled): Y-yes?
Ivan: The bathroom is this way.
Jake: Oh, thank you. I really got lost.
-He quickly goes into the bathroom-
"At the Restaurant"
Jumana: Imagine, Auntie, he insulted my voice as if he was saying it’s not feminine like the other girls!
Aunt: He’s just joking with you. You know he likes to tease.
Jumana: I didn’t like his joke at all! What’s up with that?!
Aunt: Don’t worry, he’ll come back and apologize. Don’t be like this.
Jumana: Auntie, are you taking his side now?
Aunt: Who said I’m taking his side? I’m just telling you he’ll apologize. He doesn’t know how to make you sad.
Jumana: We’ll see about that.
"At Mark's Father's House"
Stepmother: Why did you tell him to go to that house?
Father: Should I have told him who his father was instead?
Stepmother: Are you threatening me now?
Father: Shut up. I’m not in the mood to respond to your nonsense.
Stepmother: Of course, you care more about your stomach than anything else.
Father: Obviously, my stomach matters more than your nonsense.
"At the Mansion in the Bodyguards' Room"
Ivan: Mark?
Mark: Yes, dongsaeng? (meaning little brother)
Ivan: Your mom is really nice.
Mark: Yes, I know that. Everyone says that. -smiles-
Ivan: I want to know your story with your family.
Mark: Do you want to be friends with me?
Ivan: Well, I’m asking out of curiosity.
Mark: I don’t like that. I’m not used to you yet. Sorry.
Ivan: Oh, it seems I bothered you a bit.
Mark: No, no, that’s not what I meant. I just don’t trust people easily, b...-Mark's bell rings-
Mark: Damn it, damn it! She wants me. I’m off now, I’ll talk to you later.
-He leaves quickly-
Ivan: Looks like he’s not comfortable with me at all. He probably thinks I’m a bad person.
"In Hana's Room"
Hana: Come in.
Mark: What do you need, my lady?
Hana: Have I become your lady? Why are you speaking to me so coldly?
Mark: Because you’re my lady. -smiles-
Hana: Go get me some noodles.
Mark: But you just had food, my lady?
Hana: Since when does my bodyguard oppose me?
Mark: But I’m not your chef; I’m just your bodyguard!
-She gives him a serious look-
Hana: My bodyguard means everything—my servant, my chef.
Mark: But I don’t know how to cook, my lady!
Hana: That’s your problem. Go cook for me now!
-He raises his eyebrows-
Mark: Are you joking with me right now?
Hana: I said go!
-He angrily goes to the kitchen and kicks the door-
Mark: What’s with this brat? Am I her personal chef or what? No one said I’d be a cook!
Mark: Stupid, stupid! What’s this? Because I’m angry, she wants to make me angrier! I need to stay calm. Damn it!
-He kicks the door hard again-
Mark: Calm down, Mark. Don’t let that idiot mess with you.
-He prepares the noodles, knowing it will taste terrible-
"In a Strange Place"
...: Did you find out where her son is?
...: Yes, sir, he’s a bodyguard in that mansion.
...: Really? What are you waiting for? We’ll use him to threaten her.
...: Yes, sir.
...: That’s him. Bring him here, and don’t mess up. -shows a picture of Mark-
...: Yes, sir.
"At the Mansion"
-In Hana's Room-
Mark: Here you go.
Hana: Oh, it smells delicious.
Mark (to himself): Since when does my cooking smell delicious? I can’t wait to see your reaction—noodles with no seasoning.
-She starts eating and immediately spits it out-
Hana: What is this?! Is this even noodles?!
Mark: I told you I don’t know how to cook it.
Hana: Liar! It’s a simple dish!
Mark (angrily): Then you should’ve made it yourself!
Hana: Why would I do it myself when you’re here?
Mark: I told you, miss, I don’t know how to cook it!
Hana: So? I want to eat it now!
Mark: And where am I supposed to get it from?
Hana: Don’t argue with me on everything! Go to the restaurant and get it!
Mark: Do you even know what time it is?
Hana: It’s only six o'clock. What’s the problem?
Mark: "Yeah! I’m not a dog to come whenever you command me!"
Hana: "Then why did you work for me?"
Mark: "I didn’t come here to serve you, just so you know.
And even if you’re my lady, you need to respect my boundaries."
Hana: "I want food from the restaurant next door. Go now!"
Mark: "You really want it now? Fine, I’ll show you when I get back." -He leaves angrily-
"On the Way"
Mark (angrily muttering to himself): "She’s really making me mad.
Damn it, that stupid girl!" -He walks, mumbling to himself- -He senses someone behind him but ignores it- -He turns around but sees no one- -He continues walking,
but suddenly two men appear in front of him- -He tries to defend himself, but they quickly knock him out with a tranquilizer-
