REBORN TO BREAK THEIR FATE
Episode - 01
Morning light spilled through the kitchen window.
Eunha was stirring the food when she heard her husband shouting from the living room.
Eunha (FL)
(She froze) *The dry-cleaned suit he had given me two days ago… still not returned*
His footsteps thundered toward the kitchen.
A slap landed across her face before she could even react.
HUS
YOU NEVER DO ANYTHING RIGHT!
HUS
YOU ARE A PIECE OF ****
He yelled, then stormed out, leaving the door swinging behind him.
She pressed her hand to her cheek, tasting blood and tears, and went back to cooking like nothing happened.
The house was quiet after he left. She sat down, staring at our wedding photo album — each smile frozen in time.
Eunha (FL)
*Today was our anniversary. Even after everything, I couldn’t hate him.
Because I still loved him… more than he ever knew.*
Her eyes lingered on one photo —, She in a white gown, smiling next to him.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
From today, only happiness will follow you...
Seoyeon had said back then, placing her hand on her. Her words echo in Eunha head like a promise never kept.
She lay back on the sofa, eyes heavy with memories.
She spoke softly, trying to sound normal. But Mother—in—law voice came sharp, filled with blame.
Mother-in-law
Still can’t manage a simple thing like getting a suit cleaned?
Mother-in-law
WHAT KIND OF WIFE ARE YOU?
Eunha (FL)
Mom.. I will explain—
Mother-in-law
I don't want explanation.
Mother-in-law
And after all these years… no child yet. What will people say?
Mother-in-law
You are worthless!!!
Mother-in-law
I want my son to deserve more than you.
Each word hit harder than the last.
When the call ended, She just stood there — silent.
She walked into the washroom, splashed water on her face, and stared at her reflection. Red eyes. A trembling smile.
📞 Incoming call — Seoyeon 💖
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Heyyyy , Happy Anniversary.........
Eunha (FL)
(Whispered) Thank you.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
It’s your anniversary Soooo Let’s go out, together??
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I'll give you a surprise, you'll never expect it....
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Goooood
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I Will be waiting for you.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Byee Sweety.
She stepped out of the washroom and slowly walked back into the room.
Eunha lay down on the bed, staring into nothing. Her thoughts drifted back to the past.
She wasn’t their biological daughter… yet the parents who adopted her loved her deeply. That house was filled with warmth, laughter, and safety.
Eunha's biological mother comes into her life like a deep wound. She wants her back. She convinces them that it is for her good studies and a good future.
No one recognized the evil behind biological mother's smile.
The life she lived after returning to her biological mother. That life was filled with hardship. Cold words, Heavy silence, her step father's abuse. She never learned how to escape.
She still remembered the day she got into the car. The first time she was going to her biological family.
Her adoptive parents stood there, smiling through their sorrow. They had raised her like their own daughter for years.
Letting her go wasn’t easy. Yet they waved, wishing her happiness. While she sat in the car, holding back tears…
Not knowing that she was leaving her only safe place behind.
For Eunha, marriage felt like an escape. A way out of that painful life. No matter how much he hurt her…
No matter how his family treated her…
She endured everything and stayed by his side. That was what she believed.
Eunha (FL)
Whatever happens, *she told herself softly* I will stay with him.
Eunha slowly got up from the bed. She tied her hair back and walked into the kitchen. She began preparing her husband’s favorite dish.
As if love alone was enough to heal everything.
After finishing the cooking, Eunha packed the food carefully. She decided to take it to her husband’s office. He worked as a manager in the company owned by her biological mother.
Eunha arrived at the building. She parked the car and walked inside. When she reached the floor where her husband worked…
The staff stared at her. Whispers followed her steps. She heard bits and pieces, but chose not to look back.
Keeping her head down, Eunha walked straight ahead. She stopped in front of her husband’s office door.
Took a deep breath and stepped inside.
What awaited her inside was something she never expected. Eunha stopped at the doorway. Her breath caught.
Her husband was there…
Sitting far too close to another staff member. The way they looked at each other. The way his hand rested near the staff members waist.
Her heart sank. Eunha stood frozen.
The lunch box slipped slightly in her hands.
It hit the floor with a sharp sound. They both turned around. Eunha stepped inside the room. Her hands were trembling, but her voice stayed calm.
Eunha (FL)
(Her hands were trembling, but her voice stayed calm.) What is this?
Eunha (FL)
What are you doing?
She looked at him — straight into his eyes.
Eunha (FL)
Is this why everyone was staring at me outside?
Her heart was pounding. Suddenly… she shouted.
Episode - 02
His expression turned cold and merciless. He grabbed Eunha’s wrist tightly. Pain shot through her arm. She gasped, trying to pull away.
HUS
How dare you raise your voice at me?(snapped)
His grip tightened even more. Tears welled up in Eunha’s eyes. They slipped down silently
HUS
Who told you to bring food here? are you embarassing me!!!!
HUS
How many times have I said I don’t even like seeing you in my office??
The staff nearby froze, then she spoke.
Staff member Female.
Sir… please let her go.
HUS
Don’t ever come here again, (said coldly)
Eunha stood there, shaking. Her wrist throbbed. Her heart hurt even more.
Eunha walked out of the office without looking back. She got into the car and closed the door.
she broke down. Her shoulders shook as tears poured out. She cried until her chest hurt.
📞 Incoming call — Seoyeon💝
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Sweety, where are you?
Eunha (FL)
I’m… nearby, (replied softly but her voice shaking)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
(Paused) Your voice sounds strange. What happened?
Eunha (FL)
Nothing, (said quickly)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
It’s nothing?? (doubted)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Anyways, I’m at the bridge… the one we always go to.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Come here.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Yes, yess now.... Come on.
Eunha stayed silent for a moment.
Eunha (FL)
Okay, (finally said)
Eunha wiped her tears, started the car… And drove toward the bridge.
Eunha reached the bridge. She parked the car a little away and stepped out. Seoyeon was standing there. As Eunha walked toward her… memories surfaced.
The first time they met was in a classroom. Some students had tried to bully Seoyeon. It was Eunha who stood up for her. After that day, they became close.
Later, when Eunha returned to her biological family… She learned the truth. Seoyeon was her step-sister.
When that house became unbearable.
When Seoyeon’s father crossed the line. He is trying to abuse her, It was Seoyeon who pulled Eunha away and protect her. Those memories rushed through her mind.
Eunha finally reached Seoyeon. Standing right in front of the only person who had always saved her.
Seoyeon looked at Eunha the moment she came closer. She didn’t smile. She already knew something was wrong.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
You’re crying (said softly)
Eunha tried to look away.
Eunha (FL)
It’s just wind (replied)
Her voice broke anyway. Seoyeon stepped closer.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Don’t lie to me. I know your voice.
Eunha clenched her fists.
Eunha (FL)
I’m fine (whispered)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
You don’t have to be strong with me.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
What did he do this time?
Silence, The sound of water moving under the bridge.
Eunha (FL)
(Finally spoke) Maybe… I was wrong.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
(Eyes softened) About what?
Eunha (FL)
About believing that love was enough,
Her tears fell freely now. Seoyeon pulled her into a quiet hug.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
You don’t deserve this, Eunha.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
You never did.
Eunha held on to her. As if letting go would make her fall apart.
Seoyeon’s expression slowly changed. The concern on her face faded. A faint smile appeared instead. She leaned closer to Eunha. Her voice dropped to a whisper near Eunha’s ear.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
He already got what he deserved (murmured)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Do you know what you deserve?
Eunha stiffened, Something felt wrong. She gently pushed Seoyeon away and looked at her face.
That smile… it didn’t feel familiar. Seoyeon met her eyes and said calmly,
Eunha’s breath caught. Her heart started racing.
Eunha (FL)
What are you talking about? (asked, confused)
Eunha (FL)
What do you mean?
The wind swept across the bridge and Seoyeon kept smiling.
Seoyeon let out a quiet laugh.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Did you know…
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I already knew about your husband’s relationship?
Eunha’s eyes widened. Her body went still.
Eunha (FL)
What…? (whispered)
Seoyeon tilted her head slightly.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I know everything...
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Long before you walked into that office.
The words felt unreal. Like they didn’t belong to the Seoyeon she trusted.
Eunha (FL)
You knew… (voice trembled)
Eunha (FL)
And you said nothing?
Seoyeon’s smile deepened.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Why would I?
Eunha took a step back. Her heart started pounding. Fear crept in… slow and heavy. The bridge suddenly felt colder.
Seoyeon slowly walked toward Eunha. Each step felt deliberate.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Do you know what your real mistake was? (asked quietly)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
That day… when we first met.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
When you stepped in to save me from those bullies.
Eunha’s breath grew shallow.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
If you hadn’t done that,(continued). you wouldn’t have lost the friends you loved.
Her smile turned sharper.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I was the one who slowly pushed you away from everyone.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I made sure you depended only on me.
The truth settled in like poison. Eunha stood there, unable to speak.
Seoyeon continued, her voice calm… almost emotionless.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
When you came to our house as my mother’s daughter,
Seoyeon (Step sis)
did you really think I was happy?
Seoyeon (Step sis)
As long as you stayed with us,
Seoyeon (Step sis)
your father’s property would come to our family too.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
That’s why you were brought into that house.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I know that you already knew this...
Seoyeon (Step sis)
And when my father abusing you…
Seoyeon’s eyes didn’t waver.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I came to ‘save’ you only so you wouldn’t stop trusting me.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
(small laugh) pftt... Sometimes I pretended not to see many things.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Because I hated you that much.
Tears streamed down Eunha’s face. Her chest felt tight, like it couldn’t hold her heart anymore.
Eunha (FL)
Why…? (asked through her tears)
Eunha (FL)
Why did you do this to me?
Eunha (FL)
If all you wanted was the property,
Eunha (FL)
you could have taken it and left me alone.
Eunha (FL)
Why did you push me into this hell?
Eunha (FL)
Why did you get me married… just to destroy my life?

Episode - 03
Seoyeon let out a slow breath.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Did you really think I did all this just for the property? (asked)
She reached into her bag and pulled out an invitation card. She held it out toward Eunha. Eunha took it with trembling fingers. Her eyes scanned the words. It was an engagement invitation.
Seoyeon’s name was there. And besides it… the groom’s name.
Eunha (FL)
*that's junho...*
Her breath hitched. Seoyeon smiled faintly.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
At first, I didn’t hate you that much, (said)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
But the day he proposed to you… In front of everyone.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
That’s when I started hating you.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Then, Your relationship broke because he cheated, right? (laughing)
Seoyeon (Step sis)
There’s something you never knew.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
He cheated on you… with me.
The words sliced through Eunha’s heart. Anger surged inside her. Her hands shook.
Eunha (FL)
*I already knew that it was you... But I don't want to hurt. That's why I didn't ask you about that. But you... why she did to me. She have nooo guilt!!*
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Do you know why I’m telling you all this now?
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Because I don’t want your existence in my life anymore.
Before Eunha could react—
Seoyeon tried to push her toward the edge of the bridge.Eunha stumbled back and managed to move aside. Her heart pounded wildly.
A car door slammed Junho stepped out. He rushed forward and grabbed Eunha tightly. She struggled, but his grip was strong.
Seoyeon’s voice rang out.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Now… I can finally live happily.
They pushed Eunha off the bridge. Her body fell. Cold water swallowed her. As she sank… Just before her eyes closed—
She saw someone jump into the water. Reaching for her.
A thought echoed in her mind.
Eunha (FL)
*Is this the death I waited for all these years?*
Eunha (FL)
*I want to live.*
Eunha (FL)
*Please… give me one more chance.*
The world faded. Her consciousness slipped into darkness.
Eunha’s eyes flew open. She gasped for air and sat up suddenly. A familiar room. Her favorite green curtains. A small study table.
Her heart pounded. She looked down at her hands. No wounds, no pain. She rushed to the mirror. A younger face stared back at her.
Eunha (FL)
I'm.... alive??
Suddenly she hears a woman voice. It's familiar but... Not heard for a long.
Eunha's Mom
(softly) Eunha… aren’t you up yet?
Eunha (FL)
*Yes. It was her voice.*
Eunha (FL)
Yes.... It's MOM....
Happiness rushed through her. Eunha ran out of the room.
Her mother was calling out again.
Eunha's Mom
If you don’t come soon, you’ll be late for school.
Her father was sitting at the dining table, reading the newspaper. He folded it and smiled.
Eunha's Father
She’ll come darling... (said calmly)
Eunha's Father
You know our daughter punctual in everything.
Eunha's Mom
I know dear. But she will late—
Before she could finish—
Eunha rushed forward and hugged her mother tightly. Her arms trembled. Tears filled her eyes.
Her mother looked at Eunha closely. Concern filled her eyes.
Eunha's Mom
What happened?
Eunha's Mom
Is something wrong?
Eunha's Mom
Did you get scared by something?
Eunha (FL)
Yes, Mom… I had a bad dream.
Her mother gently stroked her hair.
Eunha's Mom
(softly) It’s okay,
Eunha's Mom
No matter what dream you have…
Eunha's Mom
If you’re scared, come straight to me.
Eunha held her a little tighter. Watching them, her father chuckled lightly.
Eunha's Father
Are you planning to stand there and miss school?
They laughed together. Eunha smiled and walked back to her room to get ready.
She paused for a moment, looking at the calendar.
Ten years ago… this was the time she had opened her eyes after dying.
Eunha (FL)
*Is this really real…? Or just another dream?*
She shook the thought away and finished getting ready. Soon, she was in the car with her father, heading to school. The familiar road passed by the window.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
💬 Text msg : Are you ready today? Waiting for your reply.
Eunha didn’t send any reply.
The car stopped in front of the school. Her father smiled.
Eunha's Father
Study well. Bye.
Eunha said and stepped out.
📱 Her phone vibrated again and again.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
💬 Text msg : Did you reach school?
Seoyeon (Step sis)
💬 Text msg : I’m at our usual spot. Come here.
Eunha glanced at the screen. She locked her phone. She walked straight to her classroom.
Time passed, the classroom door suddenly opened. Seoyeon walked in. Her eyes immediately searched for Eunha. When their eyes met—Seoyeon’s look was full of anger. Eunha noticed it, But she looked away.
Students stood up, chatting and laughing. Seoyeon walked straight toward Eunha. She stopped in front of her desk.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Why didn’t you come?
Seoyeon asked, her voice low but sharp.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
I messaged you so many times.
Eunha slowly looked up. Her expression was calm.
Eunha (FL)
I was busy, (Said simply).
Seoyeon (Step sis)
You never ignore me.
Eunha stood up, picked up her water bottle.
Eunha (FL)
Things change, (said quietly).
Seoyeon felt something strange. This wasn’t the Eunha she knew.
And that… Made her uneasy.
Seoyeon swallowed the anger burning inside her. She forced a gentle smile.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
Okay… I understand, (said softly).
Seoyeon (Step sis)
You were busy, that’s why you didn’t come.
Eunha looked at her. Something about that tone felt fake. Seoyeon leaned a little closer. Her voice dropped.
Seoyeon (Step sis)
What reply are you going to give him?
Eunha let out a small scoff. A mocking smile touched her lips. She opened her mouth to speak—
The class suddenly went quiet. Junho walked in casually, hands in his pockets. Confidence written all over his face.
He was popular. Everyone knew it and everyone also knew—
He had proposed to Eunha.
Whispers started spreading like fire.
🗨️ “That’s him…”
🗨️ “She still hasn’t replied, right?”
🗨️ “What do you think she’ll say?”
A few more students slowly entered the classroom. Pretending to mind their own business. But their eyes were fixed on Eunha.
Junho stopped in front of her desk. He smiled.
Junho
So? (asked casually).
