[Theory of Love]

Rosie.

Please take care of this for me.

It was my fault he lost his job,
so I want to give him a chance.

Do you always take care of people
as your job?

Is that why
you're also taking care of me?

I feel awful
that I've caused you trouble.

And I also want to take care of you.

I don't think I'm wrong about you.

If you can't find a good man,

then you don't need one.

You look like my ex.

But you're prettier.

Jom.

You shouldn't be doing this.

Why not?

I think we both know

whether it's appropriate or not.

But...

It was good, wasn't it?

Milin.

Have you seen Jom?

I need to talk to him.

No, I haven't seen him.

What do you think about Jom?

I think

he gets along well with people.

It's good for our work.

Since we work as a team,

the quicker we bond,
the better it is.

I agree.

It's rare to meet someone I like.

That's why I asked him to join us.

Okay.

But we'll have to wait and see

if he's as good as we think.

I remember that you wanted this.

It's not available anymore.

So I asked a friend
to get it in Japan.

I hope you still like it.

Of course I do.

You did all of that just for me.

Thank you.

There's nothing I can't do for you.

I should be the one thanking you.

No one knows about my life

and understands me
as much as you do.

Thank you for still being here.

I trust you the most, Milin.

Happy birthday once again.

Thank you for arranging the party.

I'm sure you must be tired.

Go get some rest.

Okay, Rosie.

Rosie.

- Hey.
- I'll get going then.

Are you leaving too, Milin?

Do you want to leave together?
I'll walk you out.

Yes.

You were right, Milin.

You get along well with people
and you are kind, Jom.

Anyway,

please walk Milin to her car.

Sure.

Bye.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Milin.

Can I ask you something?

You know about me and Rosie,
don't you?

Yes, I do.

But let's just say that I don't see

or know anything
about you and Rosie.

Why didn't you tell her

that I...

What happened between us today

was nothing.

I've met lots of men like you.

I've never given
any importance to them.

It's nothing just for now.

And it will remain nothing.

Nothing's certain.

Don't be so quick to judge.

Jom.

If you want to be in Rosie's life,

think well before you do anything.

Don't destroy her trust.

Get home safely, Milin.

Good night.

Hello, Rosie.

Where are you? Are you home yet?

I am home.

I'm about to go shower.

Shower?

I'm taking a bath right now.

Let's video call.

So we can shower together.

You're pretty romantic.

I'm kidding.

Today,

I was really happy
that you got along with everyone.

Especially Milin.

Yes.

I think that one day,

I'll probably have to tell Milin
about us.

Because she knows everything
about me.

I've never kept a secret from her.

What do you think?

Well...

If telling her makes you feel
better, I'm okay with it.

But if you're unsure,
there's no need to rush.

You can tell her when you're ready.

Is that your room?

Yes, it is.

I've lived here for a while now.

The rent is cheap.

Why do you ask?

What do you think about this room?

It's nice.

Great location.

It's a good investment.
You could rent it out.

If you like it here,

you can move in.

So you don't have to pay rent.

Really?

Thank you, Rosie.

You're helping me out so much.

It's nothing.

I could even give you this place.
I bought a lot of them.

I already had the maid
clean this room.

Let me know if it's okay.

Thank you.

You're so kind to me.

Let this place be our space.

Let's check out the bedroom.

I don't know
if you'll like this mattress.

It might be too soft
or too firm for you.

It's soft.

Why don't you try it?

What do you think?

It's soft.

Then...

Should we try out the mattress then?

Sure.

Milin.

You asked for the number
of the cleaning company.

Were you able to contact them?

All done.

Which place did you have them clean?

Why didn't you ask me to help you?

You didn't have to handle this
on your own.

Well...

I know you're busy,
I didn't want to disturb you.

My friend also

was in a rush to get a new place.

So I handled it myself.

Let's discuss work, shall we?
You've waited long enough.

Let's go.

Can I ask you something?

Are you starting a relationship
with someone?

It's nothing.

I just want to make sure

he's worth investing in.

I don't want to see you
get hurt again.

You're right.

But give me some time.

It's still pretty new.

I'm still unsure.

If I...

If I'm sure about him,

I'll let you know.

I've never kept a secret from you.

Okay.

How serious are you with Rosie?

How serious do you want me to be?

If you're not serious about her,

I won't allow it.

But actually,

if Rosie wanted you

to butt in,

she would have told you
a long time ago.

Because you're the one who's closest
and most sincere with her.

Or maybe you don't care about Rosie

and you're just possessive of me?

You don't get it.

Don't be so full of yourself.

If you hurt her,

I will deal with you.

All right.

And...

How will you deal with me?

Milin wants to know about you.

But she doesn't know

that the person I'm in
a relationship with is you.

Like I said earlier,

I don't care
what other people think.

I've told you several times.

When you're ready
to tell Milin about us,

I'll be okay with it.

- Excuse me.
- Yes?

Could you take a photo
of me and my girlfriend?

Sure, sir.

Ready?

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

Could you move closer to her?

One, two, three.

You're making me think
too far ahead.

I'm not stopping you.

If it makes you happy,

then go ahead and do that.

Milin.

I knew

that Rosie would give
this room to you.

What else has she given you?

So what?

How did you get in my room?

Your room?

This is Rosie's room.

And it's not difficult.

Everyone knows I'm closest to her.

I just said that Rosie wanted me
to get something,

but I forgot my key card.

I had to do all of this

because Rosie's going to give stuff
to someone unworthy like you.

You're not honest with her.

You know that.

What about you?

What do you want exactly?

I won't let anyone lie to Rosie.

Stay away from her.

If you don't do that,

I'll tell Rosie

about what you did to me.

What I did to you?

I haven't done anything.

But since you came all the way here,

let's do it, shall we?

- Come here.
- Jom.

Let me go, Jom!

You think I can't tell
how you feel about me?

I know.

You're doing this
because you're jealous.

Are you insane?

Don't deny it so quickly.

You just don't want
to feel guilty toward her.

Don't worry.

Rosie's not that serious about me.

I'm just her new boy toy.

She's not like that.

Let's not focus on other people.

I know you like me

the way I like you.

Don't pretend otherwise.

Once Rosie gets bored with me,

it won't be an issue.

- Jom.
- I like you, Milin.

Stop it, Jom.

Jom.

Jom.

Jom. Stop.

Stop it, Jom.

Do you feel better

after the shower?

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to.

You didn't mean to?

But this isn't the first time.

Have you forgotten?

I have not.

But what happened between us
was just a fleeting impulse.

We were just having fun.

If you're still single,

can I be the one for you?

I'm sorry, Milin.

I love you.

You're a sweet sister.

I'll always want you in my life.

I'm sorry.

It's impossible between us.

I want it to stop right here.

Please.

[Rosie]

Where are you going?

Let go. I'm leaving.

Hey.

Milin.

Don't tell Rosie about us yet.

I don't want
to cause you any trouble.

Let's wait for things to settle.

Then we'll tell her about us.

When the time comes,

I'm sure she'll understand.

Please.

From now on,
Jom will be your assistant, Milin.

Okay.

What's wrong? You look tired.
Are you sick?

No.

I slept pretty late last night.

I'm a little tired.

You can ask Milin
if you have any questions.

Sure.

Hello.

Hello there.

Are you okay?

Don't worry

about last night.

I'm not fooling around.

I'm serious.

Okay, sure.

Are you waiting for me?

We shouldn't get too close

if you're still dating Rosie.

But you were waiting for me.

Are you leaving already?

Drive home safely.

I'll get going then.

What's wrong with your motorcycle?

It's pretty old.

Plus, I crashed my car into it.

- Milin.
- Yes?

Please find a mechanic to fix it.

Take a taxi home, Jom.

It's okay.

I'll go home with Milin.

Is that okay with you?

I have some questions
about work too.

We can talk in the car.

You don't need to act
like you don't want me around.

Rosie made this possible for us.

If there's nothing more to discuss,

then I'm leaving.

Don't go.

I want you to see how I live.

Look at my room.

It's so worn down.

But what can I do?
This is all I can afford.

I haven't packed my things.
I'll need to move out soon.

This is my phone bill.

I haven't paid it.

Rosie already paid you.

It's not enough.

I have a lot of debt.

I know

you think I'm leeching off her.

It's true.

But I have no choice
because I'm poor.

Rosie's willing to pay me

in exchange for what she wants.

That's what I meant when I said

that Rosie doesn't love me.

She's not serious about me.

She's using money to win me over,

not love.

It's different with you.

I really love you.

Wait for me.

Come on. I'll pay your phone bill.

So you don't have to bug her.

Are you competing with Rosie?

Yes.

So what?

Thank you.

And you'll find out

the different ways I can repay you.

Rosie.

You're back.

I was planning
to secretly restock the fridge.

Now it's no longer a surprise.

Thank you.

Well...

I'm thinking

of getting you a new car.

Are you sure?

My motorcycle will be fine
after it's repaired.

It'll break down again.

Let's get a new car.

You're also working for me.

You'll need a car
to keep your things.

I think it's more convenient.

Is it a bad idea?

It's a good idea.

It's just that...

You've given me so much.

It's just a car.
It's not a big deal.

But if I buy you a new car now,

will Milin get suspicious?

Will it make you uncomfortable?

I don't think so.

It doesn't make me uncomfortable.

I...

I care more about you.

I know I can't say no to you.

Why don't you buy me a new car

when the moment feels right?

Then you can pick one that you like.

Thank you.

Nobody has ever been
this kind to me.

Thank you so much.

My maid's on leave tomorrow.

Let's cook together at my place.

Sure.

But...

after dinner,

will there be anything else
on the menu?

Of course.

Or do you want to have it now?

On this table?

There's no food on the table.

Are you sure?

So?

It's good.

Jom made it.

I took a cooking class.

But I can't cook as well as Jom.

He secretly memorized the chef's
recipes when he worked at the hotel.

You're good.

Milin.

I have something to tell you.

Yes?

I hope

you'll agree with my decision.

Jom and I

are in a relationship.

Really?

I'm sorry
for not telling you earlier.

There are no secrets between us.

Congratulations, Rosie...

and Jom.

I only want

the three of us to know.

I'm afraid

other people will misunderstand
and judge him.

No one knows Jom as well as I do.

He's a good man.

He's so sincere with me.

But if anyone sees us
and wants to gossip,

it's up to them. I don't care.

Okay, Rosie.

Cheers.

All right.

Cheers.

It felt so good
telling Milin about us.

If something's bugging you,

you can talk to Milin.

Milin is like family to me.

I've known her for a long time.

I feel lucky
to have Milin in my life.

But now,

I'm even luckier to have
you in my life as well.

Thank you for letting me
tell Milin about us.

You're welcome.

If it makes you happy,

I'll let you do anything.

Can I ask you for something?

What?

Spend the night with me.

Of course.

I'm so happy right now.

If you can't find a good man,

then you don't need one.

It's impossible between us.

I want it to stop right here.

Surprise.

You bought me this car?

Yes.

Really?

Of course.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Thank you.

Thank you for handling this.

You're welcome.

Go check it out.

I can't go check it out with you.

I have a flight to catch
for a work trip.

Will you get the driver, Milin?
I have to go.

- Sure.
- I'll leave it to you.

Thank you.

Will you check out the car with me?

Thank you for coming with me.

And...

Are you done overthinking
about me and Rosie?

Why do you think

I came with you?

Why did you?

I'm doing what Rosie asked me to do.

I can do anything on her behalf.

Why did you stop?

It's not that.

There's not a lot of space in here.

[Rosie]

Hello, Rosie.

Are you at the condo, Jom?

My client tested positive for COVID,
so the meeting's been canceled.

I'm here at the condo.

I'm on my way up.

Okay.

What is it?

Rosie's on her way up.

What did you say?

You have to go now. Hurry.

How's the car? Do you like it?

I do.

It's a nice car. I really love it.

Thank you again.

Why do you keep thanking me?

Like I said,

I can give you everything.

Being good to me

is how you can repay me.

I love you, Jom.

I love you too.

I remember that you wanted this.

It's not available anymore.

So I asked a friend
to get it in Japan.

I hope you still like it.

Love is never certain.

One person gives,

hoping for true love,

while the other just wants
to take advantage.

Did you leave behind evidence
to make Rosie question me?

Why would I do that?

Because you want me
to break up with Rosie.

Are you jealous?

Is everything okay, Rosie?

I think

Jom is dating someone else.

Don't feel guilty toward anyone.

Tonight, just do what feels right.

As long as we hold
each other's hands,

just the three of us,

you'll get everything you want.

Trust me.

Why are they sitting together?

- I won't allow it.
- It's still a secret

why he's here.
So you two have to sit separately.

Is this considered far?

Don't get jealous yet. Calm down.

It's pretty old.
Plus, I crashed my car into it.

Anna, please...

It's Milin.

I like that dialogue.

Don't give me any snacks.

Don't give me any snacks.

- Kiss her.
- Thank you.

- You didn't kiss me.
- We're practicing.

He's so careful around me.

And I'm just so open.
