Characters: Keiko - Katherine TOP - Peter Se7en U-Know - Stephen
Kwan - Briana G-dragon Taek
Topeka Police Station
Peter, guess what I got you? You dont need to say anything. I got you a snicker bar, a new sweater, a Rolex watch, and these, Briana dug out a car key and placed it in front of Peter, Your car keys. I got your car fix. It took a few months, but its really worth it. It looks as good as when you first brought it. You would thank me for it.
Peter smiled, Thank you for everything. Please take the car key back with you, okay? Im afraid Ill lose it during my stay. This place is worst than being homeless.
Briana put the key back into her purse, Okay, I know…How long will you be in here? I miss you so much.
Peter coughed, Six more months before Im free. I miss you too. Hows everyone at home?
Briana looked around the visiting lobby, Theyre okay I guess. I never see Henry because hes busy and Ava is somewhere doing her own thing.
Peter looked away, How about Katherine?
Shes okay I guess…Shes dating Taek. You deserve someone better. Shes just using you, Briana exclaimed.
From the main office, the officer yelled, Visiting hours is over!
Peter stood up, Thanks for all this. Thank you for coming.
Briana embraced him, Peter, I love you.
Peter laughed, Ive been here for a year and six months and here you are still saying those sweet things.
Briana lightly pushed him away, But I do love you, brother. You know were the only ones who understand each other.
Peter patted her head, I know little sister. I love you, too.
Moua Family House
Where have you been? I was worry, Mai Paj, Brianas mother, asked, Youre not playing around in the new fashion store, are you?
Briana embraced her mother, No mother. Todays visiting hours at Topeka Police Station, the location where Peter is staying in. Cant you remember?
Mai Paj pushed Briana away, Hows Peter?
Briana walked over to the kitchen counter, Why dont you go see him for yourself?
Briana fetched herself an apple from the compote.
Brianas mother sat down on the loveseat facing the television, You know I cant. My son needs me, but your father wont let me. Peter is a disgrace to the Moua household.
Briana looked over at her mother, Father hates Peter so much. Its not like hes the only twenty-year-old man who has ever drink and drive. He is not a disgrace to our household. Theres many more Mouas out there that behave this way.
But hes the first to get in an accident due to drinking in this family, Brianas father, Meng, entered the room.
Briana stood up feeling embarrassed, Sorry, Father.
Brianas mother walked over to her husband, Youre home early.
Grandparents House
Every other Tuesday are visiting hours at Topeka Police Station where Peter is kept. When anyone is free please go visit him, Meng stated to the family.
Henry yawned, Father, the big meeting is about this? Theres no point in my presence of being here. I rescheduled the meeting with Mr. Wong over this. Peter doesnt have a life, but I do. Each rescheduling causes money out of my paycheck.
Sorry Henry, but this was all of Brianas idea, Meng stated, She believes Peter is a part of this family.
Henry and Ava looked over at Briana.
What?! This is Peter were talking about. Even if he made a mistake, hes still a part of this family. Its not like you two ever made any mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes all the time, Briana shot at them.
Henry and Ava stood up.
If its only about Peter then were gone, Ava said.
Henry and Ava left the house. Briana looked at her father and then at her mother. She stood up before saying anything.
Since Peter went to jail, this family isnt the same. If Henry or Ava made the mistake, nothing about this family would change. But its Peter, the bad guy. Hes always the bad guy in this family. Why, father? Why is Peter always the bad one? I dont think I can become Ava or Henry. Peter and I are always like this no matter what. We cant change anything. If you want us to be exactly like Henry and Ava, you got to clone them. Thats the only way. I would never be like them. Im proud of whom I am and I want to be like Peter. People make mistakes. Even you, Briana went out the door before her parents could react.
Six Months Later
Stephens Room
Why are you marrying Peters sister, Briana? Taek asked.
Stephen stood up from the desk, Because Peter hurt my sister. What Im doing will still not hurt him as much as what Katherine had to go through. Katherine chose abortion months after Peters stay in jail last year. She suffered for him until she met you. I cant let him go free. Im going to hurt him as much as what Katherine had to go through.
Taek sat uncomfortably on the chair, he moved back and forth before standing up to face the open patio door.
Im happy Katherine has a brother like you…so what youre saying is that youre using Briana for revenge? Taek questioned.
Stephen smiled, Revenge and just to get what I want, a part of my fathers will. All she wants is to satisfy her father and begin a new life with a man thatll be there for her when shes in need.
But youre not that man, correct?
Yes, Im not the man. Im the bad one in this drama.
The Salon
My beautiful little sister, today youre getting married. I thought it would never come, Peter said to Briana.
Are you saying no boy would ever fall in love with me?
Peter stood up from the chair and approached her from behind.
Briana smiled at him in the mirror.
No, Im saying I should be the one in marriage before you because Im older than you, Peter pat her head.
Briana pushed his hands away, Dont touch my hair. Youre going to mess it up. It doesnt matter whos older. When its about love age isnt a factor, understand?
Peter nodded his head, I came back only one day and here you are leaving me alone to run off in a marriage.
Briana became upset, Sorry Peter. Sorry, I wasnt planning this to happen so soon.
Peter smiled, I was only kidding. Dont get upset…so whos the lucky groom, the man whos going to spend his life with my lil sister?
Before Briana could answer, Katherine came into the salon.
My soon-to-be sister-in-law, hows it going? Katherine asked.
As soon as Katherine popped in, Peters mood changed.
Peter looked straight at Briana, Whos the groom?!
Briana was confused, Peter, are you okay? Its only Stephen.
Katherines brother and only brother?! Peter asked.
Yes her brother, Stephen. Peter, why are you yelling?
Peter got a hold of his Brianas hand and pulled her off of the stool.
Peter, what are you doing? Im not ready to go yet.
Katherine became worried, Peter, whats going on? Briana isnt ready yet.
Peter looked at Katherine, I thought you had a heart, Katherine. Is this how youre going to get revenge on me, by telling your brother to marry my sister? I thought you were nice.
He pulled Briana toward the door.
Ill tell you in the car. Trust me on this one, Peter said locking eyes with Briana.
She looked back at Katherine who was calling someone and then back at Peter. Then she nodded her head. He released her hands and they got into his car.
Peters Car
Before I got in the accident, I was out with Stephen…Briana, you know Im not an alcoholic, Peter looked over at her.
Briana nodded her head, Peter, I understand. Go on.
Stephen kept on handing me glasses of wine every second. He told me G-dragon got Katherine pregnant…G-dragon was my only friend back then…So when he handed over wine after wine, I consume it to forget about what I have heard. G-dragon was the only friend that understood me, so when I heard the news it was the worst day of my life. Hours later we finally stopped drinking and came out of the club. His driver drove him home and I drove myself. That led to the accident. Hes the reason why Im like this living my life like this.
So why would he get revenge on you now by using me?
Peter stopped the car on the shoulder, The baby isnt G-dragons and it isnt mine.
What? How do you know? Briana questioned.
During my last few weeks in jail, G-dragon came by to visit. He was leaving the state. Before he left and before I came out as a free man, he wanted me to know the truth. Stephen lied to me that G-dragon was with Katherine to get me drunk. Stephen only knew that the babys father is me…Katherine told Stephen that after I found out that she was with Taek. She was going to lose me, so she lied to him. However, she revealed to G-dragon that the baby was Taeks. Not mine…She aborted the baby last year, months after I got in jail. But Im afraid Stephen doesnt know that the baby is Taeks. Stephen still thinks its mine, so why did he force you to marry him this fast? He wants revenge just to make me feel the pain.
Briana looked over at Peter, So its not really love. Its about revenge on my brother. Peter, Im going to go through with this. Please follow and go along with it. Act as if nothing is wrong.
Peter look at her, Are you crazy? I cant let you marry him.
Listen, if thats his plan Ill give him something else, Briana looked on ahead, Ill divorced him as soon as I get a little part in his club and the Enterprise. I know his father would give me anything because Ill be the greatest and only daughter-in-law to him. Ill win over his family and then the plan ends by getting a little present at the end.
Peter stayed silent for awhile until he answered, Give me a call when the plan fails to developed. Ill help you.
Briana and Peter smirked.
The Salon
Where could Peter have taken her? Stephen asked.
Briana and Peter came back into the salon. Peters expression changed into a more friendly and happy visage. Stephen stood up from the couch and approached Briana.
Are you okay, Briana? Stephen asked locking eyes with her.
Its not a stranger. Its only her brother, Peter, Peter answered for Briana, Why would I hurt my lil sister on the happiest day of her life?
Its Peter, Stephen. He wanted to wish me a good life. Did you think youll lose me and not succeed your plan?
Stephen became confuse where hes facial expression changed.
Briana touched his chest, The plan of …marrying me and being one soul. Youre so uptight lately. Whats wrong?
Stephen smiled at her, Nothing is wrong. I was just worry about you. Katherine, please take Briana to the dressing room. She still needs to dress and finish her make-up.
Before Briana left with Katherine, she kiss Stephen on his cheeks, I love you.
Taek shook Peters hand and they talked. Stephen was silent looking confuse and thinking until Peter started talking to him. Stephen wasnt happy about what had just happen.
So heres my ex-girlfriends brother marrying my lil sister. This is a small world after all, Peter said.
Stephen looked at Peter, um…I hope you dont mind.
Peter punched Stephen in the face. Taek helped Stephen back up. Stephen sourly rubbed his mouth and looked at Peter.
Welcome to the family, Stephen. Youre a Moua now, Peter happily proclaimed.
Peter pulled Stephen for a hug for a second. Stephen kindly smile, but his mouth is in pain.
Did I punch you that hard? Im sorry I forgot youre not a strong man….I guess youre different from the other guys Briana have dated in the past, Peter said.
Stephen smiled a little, Im fine. Dont worry. I guess Im the new guy that she finds interest at the present time.
Taek awkwardly smile, but he was worry about the flame between the two.
The Entrance
Welcome. Thank you, Mr. Hartford and Mrs. Harford for coming, said Mr. Lao.
The families from both sides were welcoming the guests. Then, out of nowhere Brianas ex-boyfriend came by.
Hey there Briana, Se7en gladly proclaim, Im here to pick up my Princess.
Briana rush to Se7en and embraced him. The two families looked at each other. Then, surprisingly Se7en kissed Briana on both cheeks and then was heading toward the mouth, Stephen stepped in.
He pulled them apart and had his hand out, Im Stephen the groom.
Se7en looked at Stephen and held his hand out, Im Se7en, its not my real name, but you dont deserve to know who I am. What you need to know though is Im Brianas lover.
Stephen didnt listen instead he went forward about to shake Se7ens hand, but Se7en had moved to Brianas side.
Ill talk to you later, beautiful.
Se7en entered the building. Stephen felt embarrassed, but there was a flame burning in his eyes as Se7en proceeded down the aisle. The two families kept on welcoming guests after the incident. But Stephen kept on glancing once in awhile at Briana because she was stealing glances at Se7en.
Mens Bathroom
Whats wrong with you, Stephen? Since her lover came by you have been acting differently, Taek asked him.
Stephen washed his hands with soap, Im the groom. Im supposed to be jealous over her lover, arent I?
I think youre going way too far. I dont think its fake anymore. You seem to be really jealous compare to faking.
Stephen wiped his hands on paper towels, I told you Im good at this.
Dont just get in a fight with the ex. Thats just going way too far, Taek acknowledged opening up the bathroom door.
Why would I? Its only Briana, Stephen confidently defended himself.
By the Desserts
Why are you getting married to him? Se7en asked Briana out of nowhere.
Exactly when Stephen and Taek came out to hear, Shes attracted to me more than you, Stephen answered for Briana.
He came to Briana and wrapped his arms around her.
Se7en laughed, I find it funny. Briana has dated bartenders, rappers, dancers, club bangers, but not managers. I guess shes changing her types to add a little fun into her life.
Stephen tightened up. He let go of Briana to roll up his sleeves.
Taek pulled Stephen, Stephen, this isnt the time.
Briana smirked before saying, Stephen, annoy Se7ens words. Hes always like this, Briana held onto Stephens hand, but he pushed her a little back.
Briana, I cant let him talk to you like that, Stephen exclaim.
Stephen pushed Taek away and then got in Se7ens face, Youre a guest here not a family member, so keep your comments to yourself. And keep it that way or Ill hurt you.
Then try me. Hit me or cant you? Se7en said back.
Before any fight took place Henry, Peter and Taek pulled the men apart. Briana held onto Stephens hand and pulled him inside followed by Taek.
Peter whispered, Great work. I believe thats enough. Come by the club down at 99E to get your money, before he followed Henry into the building.
The Altar
Mr. Lao and Mrs. Lao, I pronounced you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride, the priest says.
Stephen turned toward Briana, she did the same thing, but she slowly looked down from the altar toward Peter. She needed help. Peter gave a waving motion to her. Briana turned back to look into Stephens eyes. Stephen came closer, while Briana leaned back to where she bumped into Katherine.
Briana, are you okay? Katherine whispered.
Stephen!!! You cant do this to me! Stephens ex entered the building as she proceeded down the aisle toward the altar.
Brendy? Stephen whispered.
Taek smiled at the priest and then walked down the aisle toward Brendy. The guests and the families stood up to see the situation. While this took place, Peter walked up to the altar.
Everyone I would love to make an announcement, Peter said.
Briana walked over to Peters side away from Stephen.
I believe this marriage is over. Stephen is rushing things too soon, so here I am. Im taking my sister with me until he figures everything out with his girl.
Briana walked down the altar with Peter holding onto the tail of her wedding dress. Stephen looked out the far window for a second before running down after Briana. He blocked her path, while Peter yawned from behind.
Briana, you cant go anywhere. Im your husband. Youre my wife.
Briana smirked, Not your wife. Im only the person you want to used to get revenge…I know what your plan is.
Stephen stepped back, Briana, what are you saying?
Is it true, brother? Katherine asked Stephen.
Stephen looked away from the crowd of people to meet Taeks eyes. Taek nodded his head up and down to tell him to reveal the plan.
After awhile in silence, Stephen turned toward the people, Everyone, Im sorry for the misunderstanding and the problem we have right now. It seems like my wife doesnt want to married me, He glance over at Briana, She did it for revenge on me. You see I didnt let her brother date my sister, so shes getting revenge by marrying me and taking it out on me.
Briana looked at Peter, Peter nodded his head.
She cleared her throat, Yes that was exactly the plan. So now that all you know theres no point in being his wife. This wedding is off. Enjoy all the food thats provided here. Its free.
Briana walked down toward Brendy and gave the ring to Brendy.
She took one good look at Stephen, Im sorry husband your plan fail to succeed. I guess you didnt plan it well enough. Find another way to get revenge…but dont waste too much time on it, because what Katherine hid from you might spoil your plan. Thank you everyone to come see this act.
Briana walked down the aisle with Peter after her. Stephen looked at Katherine to find her gone. Then, he looked at Taek who had already settled himself down on the steps. The guest gossip while they proceeded out the building. The two families talked for awhile.
Stephens Car
Why are you here at my wedding? Were not together anymore, Stephen madly asked.
Brendy started crying, Stephen, we love each other truly and then one day you dump me out of nowhere. Is it all because of your plan of revenge?
Stephen sat in silence for awhile until he reply, It was not a plan…I might be in love with her.
Family Lao House
Brother Stephen, please let Peter go…its the past this is the present, Katherine pleaded to Stephen after hearing about Stephens plan.
Why, Katherine? Is there something you would like to tell me? Stephen asked.
Katherine sat in silence for awhile and then she spoke up, The babys father isnt Peter. I was going to lose him so I lied to you…the babys father is…Taek, but I only saw him as a brother.
Stephen stood up and looked away, I did so many bad things to Peter and Briana…They didnt deserve all this.
The Hotel Room
Briana slides the card in place to open up the door to the hotel room. She got inside and closed the door. Briana walked a little inside.
Hello? Anybody in here? she asked before going into the bedroom to get her bags and her accessories, but to her amazement everything was gone. Nothing was there. Then, she heard footsteps. Briana hurried into the closet to hid herself and then she remembered she left her high heels out by the door, so she got back out.
I thought you would come for your things, Stephen said when she entered the hallway to find Taek with Katherine.
Where are they? Where are my things? Briana asked.
Stephen pushed her into the bedroom and locked the doors.
What do you want?! Revenge time is over. It wont work, Briana said.
Stephen smiled, If you want your things, marry me. If you dont then Ill keep them.
Briana smiled, Marry you or lose them? Um…hard one, I guess Ill lose them better then marrying someone cold hearted like you. I dont have time to waste.
Stephen kept on locking eyes with her, but Briana looked away. He lean forward and kiss her on the cheek, she lightly turn away and slide away from him.
Keep it if you want it so much, Briana mumbled as she walked out on him.
Stephens Room
Stephen lay down on his bed staring at Brianas luggage by the door to his room. He hasnt opened them yet, so he got out of bed to investigate. The first luggage was full of her clothes. The second one was full with her clothes. The third is full of shoes. The last one was full of accessories with her diary. It was however locked with a locket. Stephen dug through everything with no luck of the key.
Brianas Room
Please get me book for Monday…at noon is fine…yes, Briana Moua…yes…Thank you, she hung up after making the appointment at the salon and spa. Then, she saw the key to her diary on the counter of her dresser, Shoot!
Hongs Family Party
Come on, Peter sing a song for me, Birthday girl pleaded.
Come on. It would mean a lot to her, Briana pleaded.
Peter looked awhile to see Stephen in the distance arriving.
What do you say, Peter, yes or no? Briana asked.
Peter met their glaze, Okay I will, but only once.
Peter stood on the patio and sang to the birthday girl, standing next to him. Briana slowly walked down the aisle to an open table. She wandered around the party with her eyes then her eyes landed on G-dragons appearance. He left behind the girls he was with and head toward her. Briana stood up waiting patiently. The next thing she knew Stephen came into her view.
Hello there, Briana. Um…how are you? Stephen asked.
Great after I separated myself from you, Briana said.
G-dragon stepped around Stephen to embrace Briana, Hey beautiful, you have grown a lot. Hows your marriage?
He turned around to see Stephen, Hello, Stephen. Hows life?
Stephen nodded his head and kept on looking at Briana. Peter pushed Stephen aside to shake G-dragons hand.
How have you been? Peter asked him.
Before G-dragon could answer, Stephen stepped in, I apologize for misunderstanding about you, Peter.
Peter turned around, What are you saying?
Stephen took a deep breath, Katherine told me the truth. Im sorry for doing everything I did to hurt you. Im deeply sorry for my actions.
Peter got in Stephens face, Its all because of you and your sister that led to my present life.
Stephen apologized, which led to the punch across Stephens face. Briana pulled her brother away and was about to pulled Stephen upright, but Peter pulled her away. Instead he held his right hand out for Stephen. Stephen looked up at his face and then held onto Peters hand. He pulled himself upright.
Peter patted Stephens shoulders, I accept your apology. Youre tough.
Stephen didnt smile, Im not tough enough to apologize to your lil sister.
Peter looked back at Briana who was in the arms of G-dragon, Dude, shes married. You want to die?
G-dragon let her go, Youre married to who Briana?
Briana looked at G-dragon, Handsome, marry me will you?
G-dragon cracked up, Funny. Youre funny.
Briana walked off without saying a thing. Peter motioned Stephen to follow her, so he did.
The Balcony
I forgive you, Stephen. I never hated you because youre a caring brother. My brother would do exactly the same thing you did, Briana said.
Stephen approached her, inches away from each other. Briana breathed heavily. He pushed aside her bangs and then he ran his fingers down her hair. Briana slowly pushed him away. Stephen touched her hands.
Stephen, we should just be friends nothing more.
Briana, you do forgive me, dont you? I know how you feel at the beginning of our relationship…Cant we start over and begin from where we left off before the marriage?
Briana looked into his eyes, Stephen, I know were different now. We cant start over because we both know we cant.
Briana pushed Stephen away, Only friends.
Stephen nodded his head and Briana kissed his cheeks before leaving him, Only friends.
Briana waved at everyone she saw when she went back to the party. Stephen stood there looking up into the night sky.
Only friends, but Ill always love you, he whispered.

This is it. Please feel free to comment and give me feedback. It's pretty simply. This is the end for now. Sorry if it's really hard to read, but I didn't want to separate the story.
