A party is being held at Hera Palace for the success of the twin's recital. Suryeon wanted to make good memories with them. She regretted the time she missed a lot of things in their life because she was busy taking care of Hyein. Their classmates in SNU were all invited so automatically, Rona was there too. She's happy that despite everything, the twins made a friend out of Rona. The first months of her stay in the penthouse was difficult for Suryeon because Seokkyung would always get jealous and fight with Rona. She thanks the heavens that Seokhoon was always there to reprimand his twin and to break the two up when their fighting became intense.

From afar she can see the three chatting and jesting at each other. She smiled, they've grown so much. When she thinks about it, the happiest memories she had in the last three years was the time she spent with the three. She was pulled out of her reverie when she felt someone pull her for an embrace. She looked at her side and saw Seokkyung.

"Hi love, are you enjoying the party?" She asked.

"Yup. I'm even more happy because you're the one who organized this."
Suryeon chuckled, she can't believe the once sharp tongued teenager turned into someone so sweet. In the corner of her eye she saw the other two approached them.

"Seokkyung, why are you disturbing mom?" Seokhoon teased his twin.

"Shut up." Seokkyung rolled her eyes and hugged her mother tightly. Suryeon can't help but smile.
She noticed Rona was looking out for someone. Seokhoon noticed this too.

"Rona, are you okay? Who are you looking for?" Seokhoon asked concerned.

Suryeon was brought back to the time when she saved Rona from Joo Dantae. The first person she called was Seokhoon, she thought then that the two might've something more than friendship but as Rona lived with them, she realized they were just friends.

"My mom... she's late. She said she'll accompany me once she got off work." Rona said, worry was evident in her face.

Upon hearing this, Suryeon started to panick as well. She knows that Dantae was in prison but that does not mean he can't do anything to harm people. Knowing how his mind works, she's sure he blames Yoonhee too for what he's suffering now. Her hands went cold and her breathing became ragged. Her heart started beating fast, she needs to do something.

"Did you call her?" She asked as she fumbled to get her phone in her clutch.

"Yes, but she isn't answering." Rona said fidgeting with her hands. The younger girl was clearly in distraught so the twins tried to calm her down. Suryeon was about to dial Yoonhee's number when Seokkyung pointed somewhere.

"Oh, there she is." The three of them looked at where Seokkyung is pointing at and there they saw a very tired Yoonhee massaging her own shoulders as she walk through the crowd of students. Suryeon released the breath she didn't knew she was holding while Rona glared at her mother. Yoonhee approached the group and smiled at them but they all look pissed.

"Yah! Why are you not answering your phone?" Rona asked her angrily.

"You called me? My phone didn't ring." She checked her phone for miss calls but it turned out that it was off. She scratched the back of her head.

"I think I forgot to turn it on when I left." Rona glared at her even more. The twins looked at her exasperated.

"Rona... I'm sorry I was just too preoccupied with work." Her daughter sighed and looked at her. Her mother looked so worn out.

"It's fine, just don't do it again."
Her mother's face lit up and she hugged her.

"Does it mean we're okay?" Rona rolled her eyes at her one last time and nodded. The redhead beamed at her daughter.
