The next day, Jeongyeon went back to work. Chaeyoung was also with her and Somi, trying not to show an obvious crush on her. Jeongyeon knew about it, so she scheduled them together most of the time.

Momo and Sana were at work, Sana enjoying the cooking, Momo loved taking orders. It worked out for the most part, and Chaeyoung was with her teacher at the museum for the competition.

Nayeon was with the 3 little ones, but getting them ready for the day, to go to the museum in a few minutes to go see if Chaeyoung won. They didn't know what Chae painted, but the theme was 'Home' and there needed to be meaning behind it.

Dahyun was also at work, she had been enjoying her job, and showing hard work. She wouldn't want to leave her job, but it was now taking a turn. It all started when the stepmom came into the store.

A letter dropped off at Dahyun's register, then she left. Dahyun gave a confused look, put it to the side, and waited until no one was there to read it. Finally the last person before she left for the day came and left.

She grabbed the letter, timed out, and started her walk home. She opened the letter, and read it slowly, as she read it she got annoyed and ran home. Bursting through the door "Unnie!"

Nay: "Yea? Dub?"

Dub: "I'm getting sued"

Nay: "What?!" Dahyun handed Nayeon the paper "Your stepmom is suing you for $300, that's how much you took from her"

Dub: "I know, but it's stupid"

Nay: "We'll deal with this later, get dressed we're going to the museum. I'll call Suzy later today"

Dub: "Don't tell Chae, it's her big day"

Nay: "I won't"

Dahyun changed her clothes and they all got in the van and headed to the museum. When they got their the teacher and Chaeyoung walked up to them.

Teach: "Just in time, the results will come out in a few minutes"

Tzu: "What'd you draw unnie?"

Chae: "You'll see Tzu"

Ji: "You won?"

Chae: "I don't know, but I hope I do"

Nay: "I'm sure whatever you painted will be 1st place"

Dub: "Yea, she had the best painting ever. She made me promise not to tell you until she either won or brought it home"

Chae: "Yes, and the surprise is almost here"

2 men walked on stage with a woman, each holding a clipboard. 3 assistants brought up 3 painting covered on the stage. One man took a step forward "I'm pleased to announce that all the paintings were judged and were wonderful."

Man2: "Unfortunately we can only pick 1, but we do have a 2nd and 3rd place"

Man1: "In 3rd place..."

Chae: "So it's not me"

Man2: "In 2nd place..."

Teach: "Chae you can be 1st"

Woman: "In 1st place...with art that is wonderful. Colorful, and told a story so beautiful. Son Chaeyoung congratulations"

Nay: Chae! That's you"

Chaeyoung walked on stage and got the check "Thank you"

Man1: "What made you paint this"

Chae: "Like my story said, anything can be home. Friends can be family, and any family anywhere is home."
