Surprisingly, her current interests aren't like her mother and father's. She likes arts. She likes drawing, and coloring. She likes doing things with her hands. At her age, she can draw well.

"She is very much like Chaerin." Jiyong remarked, looking lovingly at their busy little daughter. It amuses him that even though Faith's interests aren't like theirs, she is very much like her mother, very caring, sensitive, and thoughtful.

"Really? That's cool." Dara inclined from her seat, just as Faith was taking out another blank paper. She always spends her time drawing things. Jiyong looked at Dara with apprehension, he is well aware that Dara is not very comfortable around Chaerin. Jiyong cannot blame Dara though, and he understands very well. Moving past what happened before might be very difficult for Dara, especially because she has to live in close distance with one of the person who scared her.

"What's with the look?" Dara raised her eyebrows.

"You're cool with it." Jiyong smirked, he wasn't expecting Dara to accept Chaerin easily. He thought it would take time.

"Yes, well. I can't always stay away from her. She's your twin." Dara has always been understanding, and she believes time heals all wounds. She is holding on to the hope that someday she would open her arms to Chaerin completely.

Jiyong was glad by the way Dara and Chaerin's relationship is developing. He wasn't aware that the two were talking, and was glad to hear that Dara is open at accepting Chaerin.

"Actually I called Chaerin. I asked her to teach Faith how to draw, Chaerin really likes art." And as if on cue, they heard a knock on the door. "Chaerin come in." Jiyong said loud enough for Chaerin to hear.

Chaerin has been spoiling Faith a lot, buying her all sorts of clothes, shoes, toys, and art materials. Today she has books with her.

"You didn't have to buy so much." Jiyong remarked, looking at the stash her sister has for his daughter. Chaerin awkwardly approached Dara and greeted her.

"Good morning." Chaerin softly smiled, pecking her cheek.

"Good morning." Dara smiled back.

The awkward atmosphere between the two is still present but is slowly improving as time goes by. Chaerin's love for Faith is so profound; the way she looks at her niece is a remarkable sign of adoration.

"Auntieeee!" Faith squealed.

"Hey lovely." Chaerin smiled. "I've got books for you." Chaerin showed Faith the books she bought, waving them in the air in display. Faith clapped in delight.

Faith reached for her new book and asked her aunt to teach her how to write her name. "Auntie I wanna write my name here. Can you teach me?" Faith pointed to the line intended for the book owner's name.

Chaerin guided Faith's little hand as she wrote her name on the line. After scribbling Faith, Chaerin looked at Faith and then on her twin brother and Dara. Jiyong and Dara just stayed on their seats with stupid smiles plastered on their faces watching Faith and Chaerin.

"Faith is my English name." Chaerin smiled tenderly.

Dara, Jiyong, and Faith decided to visit Jiyong's private resort with Bom, TOP, and their son Seunghoon. Faith was very happy to meet someone her age. They clicked immediately and played well with each other. Faith and Seunghoon has very opposite personality. Faith is quiet, she likes drawing, and singing, she moves very lady-like, like a tiny little princess, Seunghoon on the other hand is very vocal, very active, and brash; very physical, even.
