The Eunuch Calls

A place we will go

[INT. LIVING ROOM 1:30AM]

All lights in the living room are . TV turned off. Both Esom and Keleigh have both moved into the living room.


KELEIGH
Esom, I'm so sorry

ESOM
What for? You didn't do anything wrong

KELEIGH
Esom you can't be here, you have to go home

ESOM
School is not even finished.

KELEIGH
I don't think you should be thinking about school right now. Your father might need you. The family might need you.

ESOM
Thanks, you make it feel like I belong there.

KELEIGH
They're still your family.

ESOM
Only by name.

KELEIGH
As long as you still share the same blood. But the real concern is about your dad. 

ESOM
Yeah, the chairman

KELEIGH
Esom, I think it would be best if you were to go back after the week is up. Go and comfort him.

ESOM
Keleigh you're a great person, if i leave here, where am I going to find another Keleigh back in South Korea. I'll just stay here, where there is you.

KELEIGH
Yeah, to kiss up to you

ESOM
Hey, you said at least you get pay right,


*ringtone and phone vibrates from other room. Esom rushes in, Keleigh follows. Esom picks up the phone and stares at the screen. "THE EUNUCH" it reads. Esom hesitate to answer. She takes a look at Keleigh for assurance, and slides the phone to answer.

ESOM
Seo Esom

EUNUCH VOICE
아가씨, I'm sorry I have to call you at this hour, but I believe theres no need to longer wait. I have bad news

ESOM
I already heard.

EUNUCH VOICE
I'm sorry, its my fault.

ESOM
The person you should be more sorry to is Unnie

EUNUCH VOICE
I would rely my apologizes to her once the lady has calm down. In the mean time, I would like to discuss some important matters with you.

ESOM
What is it Secretary Park.

EUNUCH VOICE/ MR PARK
I think its about time you come back from Berlin.

ESOM
Move back to Seoul?

MR. PARK
Yes. I already had booked a flight for you to leave in the afternoon. We figure, the sooner the better.

ESOM
Theres so much I have to do today though. Exams, engagements, a practice. How am I'm suppose to leave that?


MR. PARK
Certainly things can be re arrange about your school. and Certainly you can weigh out the priorities of this conversation with that bright head of yours miss.

ESOM
There's oppa and unnie. I don't think my presence would make a big significant to the Chairman's health. I can come and visit but its not nessecary to move everything and leave here

MR. PARK
Your siblings are expecting you. And knowing the President, she's not too kind about absences

ESOM
*gulp 

MR. PARK
I take it that you understand.

ESOM
Can I do it under one condition?

MR. PARK
What is it that you may?

ESOM
Sunbae comes too. I won't come unless Sunbae does.

MR. PARK
Then I would be expecting you and Song Joong Ki by tomorrow evening, there will be a driver to pick you up and a place accomadting to Joong Ki Ssi

ESOM
Okay........... I should get packing.
