When I was a child,

The elders have always been keeping me to wander around

Or play anywhere.

I've been forced to stop doing what I love the most

Even if it keeps me away from being happy.

They said,

I put myself first over anything, or anyone.

They just don't believe what I'm capable of.

Because I'm not the best.

And will never be.

Lucy!

Are you still not done?

Hey girl!

I couldn't focus on my review last night.

You kept moaning in your sleep.

Really?

- You're lying. - It's true!

I even took a peek.

You really had a nice sleep, didn't you?

I think I dreamt of something like that.

Something that felt nice.

But I wasn't aware that I talked.

My grandma told me once,

that it was possible.

Especially when a person is tired.

Lucky you, having complete sleep.

Unlike me, who was up until morning--

Hello, Lucy.

Why don't you just accept

your sister's offer

to babysit her kid?

She doesn't have time

to look for a new babysitter.

She'll be paying you--

Mom,

What I'm after is rest.

The kid's too old for a babysitter.

And,

You know me and my sister aren't close.

You know how she is.

It's just for a while.

Just help her out.

This is your chance to get close to her.

Mom.

We don't need to be close.

Oh see, there you go again--

Aw! My baby Lucy!

Of all the subjects to fail at,

Art appreciation is what you chose.

I just don't want to lose my scholarship

when my general average is pulled down.

If not,

I'll have to go to my stepsister for help,

I don't want anymore debts to owe her.

Lend me that spoon.

So how's the

request your stepsister asked of you.

Well you know.

Every day my mom nags me about it.

I don't want to do it.

Where's her husband anyway?

What I've heard is,

he's too busy apparently.

He's a visual artist.

Well there you go!

Make him teach you about

"Art appreciation"

Silly!

Your face is abstract.

Hey!

This is "rare art".

Bestie!

Here's your stuff from my laundry.

Need help?

I'm fine.

Mister!

You can stop here.

One moment, Lucy!

Hi!

- Hi - Let me help you with that.

Come inside.

- So, - How have you been?

It's been a long time.

I'm okay, I'm good.

You're okay? Come.

Let's go inside.

I'm sorry,

I know it's supposed to be your vacation time, but,

I couldn't find anyone

that could help.

You know how it is...

- Here, give that to me. - No It's fine.

- No it's okay. - I can manage.

- Ah... - Okay.

Let's go.

Are you hungry?

I'm okay.

Come.

My gosh! You're so big now!

Come inside.

Come on.

Just leave your stuff here.

Alright.

Need anything? Water?

No thanks, I'm okay.

It's your first time here isn't it?

Uh, yes.

Your house is beautiful.

Thank you.

We did everything for this house.

This is the fruit of our hard work.

Lucy,

thank you very much

for accepting this offer.

But it's only for the meantime.

It's been hard trying to find

a good housekeeper.

Like I've said before

it's hard finding trustworthy these days.

Are you the only one managing

the whole house?

Uhm,

Originally, I had two people helping me, but,

one of them--

Come, sit down.

One of them asked permission to leave.

But the other one suddenly left.

Your husband doesn't help you?

Sometimes.

We do help each other out, but,

sometimes things just get too busy.

Mommy!

Oh, baby! Hi!

Come here! Come come.

Hi! Good Morning!

Good Morning!

Come say hi to your aunt.

Hello, auntie.

Hello.

She's mommy's sister.

She's just not able to visit very often.

Her name's Alice.

That's so cute!

It suits her perfectly.

And...

Ah! I knew you would remember.

She has the same name as that doll we had

when we were young.

Remember? That's when dad was still alive.

Yeah that's right.

It's because our favorite show was

Alice in Wonderland.

That's because you always dream that

you were Alice.

Hi, Alice!

How old are you?

I'm already seven.

Really?

- Yes! - You've grown so fast.

It's because we haven't met in a long time.

See what happened...

Oh, maybe Ace is here.

Is daddy awake?

I guess.

Let's go, let's go.

Let's go see him.

Is he awake?

There he is!

- Babe? - Daddy!

- Babe! - Daddy!

Hello!

Oh, babe.

What are you doing here?

I just wanted to let you know,

that Lucy's here.

Lucy, this is Ace.

Hi, Ace.

- Cut the formalities - My apologies.

Babe.

Thank you.

Your sister is just so busy.

No problem.

I mean,

Not a big deal.

Babe,

I know you're busy so,

We'll be going.

I won't disturb you any longer.

- Lucy! - Okay.

Lucy!

Come, let's go?

Lucy!

Your most important duty here at home,

is to clean it preferably every day.

Don't forget to water the plants there.

So those are our top priorities.

And then,

for Alice,

These are what you need to do for her.
