"What's going on here" said Helio in a loud annoyed voice.

Violet and Harvey turned to face him. There were all others behind him.

"Nothing much . I was hugry .So we were just eating the noodles that Vil made for me"said Harvey

"Ooh I see you were hungry, huh? Aren't you the one who usually skips breakfast ,Harvey . What's up with sudden hunger today,hmm?"said Ray in a teasing tone

"Oh, just stop making such a big deal . I am a human too,ok?"said Harvey

"Right, Mr human. We believe you."said Jenny mockingly

"I am sorry, Mr Harvey for being late . I will prepare the food in a few minutes."said Jennifer,the cook

"Its alright, Jennifer. By the way Jenny, I found someone who can compete against you in cooking.Here I present my Villy." said Harvey and covered his mouth at realising what he rambled

Violet's eyes widened.
"So is that your confession, Uncle?"teased Tae Jun

"Stop this nonsense conversation now. I am a busy. Let's eat now."said Helio

"There's no food here now ,Dad Should we just order food for today?"said Hayley

"Yeah let's do that."said Helio

At 11am

Violet knocked on Jenny 's room.
"Come in "

"Hi Jenny"

"Hey what's up,kid?"

"I have a favour to ask you."

"Go ahead "

"Actually I am planning on quitting modelling. And I am interested in cooking. So I wanted to know if I could get a chance to work at your restaurant. I promise to do my best."

"Sure. But you will have to start from basics. And just so you know, I am a very strict boss."

"Yayy!!"
Violet in the joy of approval of her wish hugged Jenny with a small jump.

"I guess you are very happy"said Jenny and smiled at her innocent act.

"Oww sorry. I was just excited."

"No sorries. It's nice to have kid like you in house. "

"I am not a kid , I am a grown up."

"Yeah, but you are really innocent and cute" said Jenny and pinched her cheeks.

"Sure ,whatever you say Boss"

Jenny smiled and Violet giggled lightly.

After some time she left the room.

Jenny 's POV

A sad smile appeared on my face as Villy went away.
I couldn't be a good younger sister in past. Now a kid who resembles her sister has appeared. Talking to that kid makes me feel like an older sister. Maybe this is my chance for atonement. A chance to be a good sister for once in her life. It doesn't matter if I am right or wrong. This time I will make sure to take care of this kid. I won't let myself lose someone precious again.

I sighed.

No one's POV

Helio was walking to and fro on the upstairs corridor .He was lost in his thoughts.

Suddenly something came in front of him.
"Bhooo"
He was shocked and taken aback for a second.
It was Violet who suddenly appeared in front of him.

"I am sorry Mr Helio. I called you a few times but you weren't responding."

"It's alright. I was just startled."

"But you know what , seeing a grown man like you get startled that way is kinda cute."

"Me ?Cute?"

"That's right. And you should be careful when you walk. You were so focused on your thoughts that you didn't even notice the vase that you nearly knocked off" she said and tapped on his shoulder

"I did? Well thanks for letting me know."

She took away her hand from him but he suddenly held her hand.

"Is there something you want to say ,Mr Helio?"

"Yeah. First of all ,just call me Helio. And did you perhaps have a relative named Viki"

"No I don't, Heli."

"What did you just call me?"

"Heli. Was that rude?"

"No I - I like it."

Their conversation was interrupted when a hand was placed by someone on Violet's shoulder.

It was Gary.
Helio slowly let go of Violet's hand.

"I was looking for you, Villy. Let's go make our parents a call."said Gary and turned to Helio and gave him a peircing stare.

"See you later, Heli."
She waved to Heli and went back with Gary.

Helio watched them go . They looked very close.
He went back to his room and looked at the frame that was hanging on the wall.

Shall I enjoy the moment for a little while. I know it's not fair but I am going crazy baby. Its ok to be selfish for a little while right?"
