After taking down the hairdo, Luca took the curler and carefully curled Rainie's hair.

Rainie's hair was long but thin, so it did not take long before Luca was done curling. She let go of the lock of hair in her hand and reached for a hairpin to clip Rainie's hair in place.

“What do you think?" Luca asked.

Rainie looked at the mirror and saw how gentle Luca was with her. She felt doted on by her mother and nodded with a smile. "It's so pretty, Ms. Luca. You have very skilled hands."

"You're just very pretty, Rainie," Luca replied.

"No, no, it's thanks to you, Ms. Luca." Rainie was overjoyed when she saw herself in the mirror.

Luca looked at herself and Rainie in the mirror. She could not stop herself from putting her hand on Rainie's shoulder gently.

She did Rainie's hair all the time when her daughter was still young. Then, she was abducted to the Island of Despair. Her children grew up while she was away. Now that she had returned, her children no longer needed her help to tie their hair nor did she have any excuses to do so.

This time, she could finally help her daughter with her hair.

Luca felt remorseful.

Every girl in school had their mothers to help them with their hair, yet Rainie only had her maid and her own hands to do hers.

Luca was remorseful to her children for not fulfilling her role as their mother, and as for Luke...

Aunt Neile walked in and smiled mirthfully when she saw the two. "You're here with Ms. Rainie, Ms. Luca. Oh, you changed your hairstyle, Ms. Rainie. It looks great on you."

Rainie smiled sweetly and replied, "Ms. Luca did it for me."

"It looks great. With that tiara, you look just like the princess from a fairytale," Aunt Neile praised and placed the tray on the vanity table. "Ms. Luca, Ms. Rainie, I heard that a lot of people were invited to the banquet, so it might be a long while before food is served. I prepared some snacks for you so that you won't go hungry waiting for the food."

"Thank you, Aunt Neile," Luca thanked Aunt Neile for her thoughtfulness.
