A Love She Deserves

Script Reading and Mind Reading

Dara is about to go to bed when she heard someone ringing her doorbell. And it wasn't just a one-thing ringing, the person ringing it seems like in a hurry. She went out of her room to see who it is. When she opens the door, Seon Woong immediately enters her home followed by Hye Jung who gave her an apologetic smile. She follows them.

"Oppa, Unnie, what's wrong?" she asks. Seon Woong faces her and he looks mad. "Are you out of your mind? You chose Kwon Ji Yong to be the lead actor?!" Seon Woong yells. Hye Jung holds his arm.

"Yeobo, let Dara explain. She has her reasons. Please listen first." Hye Jung calmly says. Seon Woong looks at his wife then back at Dara.

"Right. Tell me. What's your reason for letting that jerk back in your life?" Seon Woong asks.

Dara sighs. She knew that this will happen after she read the article that morning about Kwon Ji Yong being chosen to be the main actor in her new drama. That it will be a sure hit because Ji Seung Hoon will be directing it, she wrote the story and it will be the comeback project of Kwon Ji Yong and his reunion with Lee Joo Yeon.

"Oppa, it wasn't my decision alone. Ji PD-nim, the producers and I did the decision for it. If you will ask me, I have my preferred actor but Kwon Ji Yong fits the role too. They see this as a good opportunity for the press release of the drama. You see, I wrote this story after 'Captivated by You', Ji Seung Hoon will direct this, and this will be a comeback project for Kwon Ji Yong and his reunion with Lee Joo Yeon. It's good PR." She aid.

"But why did you agree, Dara-ah? Aren't you afraid that it will happen again?" he asks. Dara knows what he means. She smiles towards her brother. "Oppa, it's all in the past now. Ji Yong and I are long over. My relationship with him now is purely work-related. Nothing more, nothing less. Don't worry about me." Dara assures him.

Seon Woong isn't convinced. "Do you want me to talk to them about Kwon Ji Yong? Or better yet, do you want to back out of this project? I can talk to them. Just tell me." He said out of frustration. Dara approaches her brother and holds his hand. "Oppa, you can't protect me forever. Let me fight my own battle. This is just Kwon Ji Yong. He hasn't done anything to upset me or something. I can handle this. Trust me. Hmm?"

Seon Woong can't help but worry about her. He saw with his own eyes how hard for her when Ji Yong left her. He sighs. "I will still talk to Ji PD regarding this matter. At least you can stay away from him during the shoot. I really don't want him around you. Just allow me to do this."

Dara nodded. "If it will give you peace of mind, then do it. This drama will be as successful as what we did Oppa. I guarantee you that." She chuckles.

"You should be ready. Young Bae will call you as soon as he reads the article." Hye Jung said. Dara gaped. "Oh, no. He will be so mad at me."

"Just explain your side, Dara-ah. He will understand it more than this man." Hye Jung said as he points at her husband. Seon Woong scowls at her.

"Okay! Are we done here? Can we go home now?" Hye Jung asks Seon Woong. Seon Woong nodded. He looks back at his sister. "We'll go ahead." He said. Dara nodded and accompanies them to the door. Hye Jung waves at her and the couple left. She closes and locks her door. She sighs. Tomorrow will be a busy day for her. The media will have a fest with her again.

Dara is heading to the office of the head for TV series when someone calls her name. She looks around and saw Kwon Ji Yong. She can't help but sighs. He walks towards her so she turns to face him. She smiles at him.

"Hello, Kwon Ji Yong-ssi." She said.

"Hi, Dara-yah. How are you?" he asks. Dara didn't like the fact that he calls her in an informal way but she let that pass. "I'm quite busy. I'm meeting the head for the TV series. But I'm well. You?"
