After breakfast, everyone started preparing for their day at the amusement park. And, of course, the most excited one is none other than Tiffany. She has been nagging everyone to hurry up so they could get there early. Tiffany kept on skipping and clapping her hands like a little girl.

Jessica was just watching Tiffany getting all excited, with a warm smile on her face...a smile that says that she's a happy, big sister. "It's been a while since I saw that smile on you Tiffany." Jessica thought to herself.

Tiffany skipped her way to Jessica and sat next to the latter on the couch. Jessica pats Tiffany's head and then ruffled her hair. "Are you that happy and excited, Tiff?" Jessica asked. 

"Yes! I am! I am, Jessi!" Tiffany chirped. Jessica chuckled and gave Tiffany a tight hug.

"I know you are. I'm sorry, Tiff." Jessica said.

"Sorry? Why?"

"Because it took me and Yuri this long to be able to bring you to an amusement park. It took us this long to be able to help you and have you do things we should have done a long time ago. If only we weren't too scared..." 

Tiffany pulled out of the hug to look at Jessica. "Hey. What are you talking about, Jessi? Stop that okay? You and Yuri have done so much for me. So much. You know that. You should know that." Jessica gave Tiffany a warm smile.

"Don't worry, Tiff. Just hold on a little longer, okay? Everything will be alright. We will be here for you."

Tiffany nodded, showing Jessica her eyesmile. "It's been a while since I last saw that eyesmile. It's really good to see that again."

Yuri and Taeyeon stood by the hallway, watching Jessica and Tiffany, hearing their conversation. Yuri smiled upon hearing the exchange between the two, eyes slowly tearing up and it didn't go unnoticed by Taeyeon.

"You okay buddy?"

"Oh, yup Taengoo. I'm just happy you know. Sica was right. We weren't able to help Tiff. We weren't able to protect her when we were even that close to her. We weren't even able to help her experience things like that, going to amusement parks, festivals, going on overnight trips. We were such cowards."

"Hey. You heard what Tiffany said back there. You've done so much for her."

"And it still doesn't seem enough, Taeng. We are her sisters yet we can't even protect her from getting hurt."

"Well, you are here now. You can protect her and be with her."

"You know we would have to leave soon too. I don't know what to do, Taeng. Her father. That monster. We don't know how we could cut his ties with Tiff. It's like he's got her by her neck."

"There must be a way, Yul. There's gotta be a way. There would be a way. There's always a way, you just gotta find it, look for it."

"We've been trying to figure it out for years, Taeng. And we've got nothing. Nada. Zero." Yuri sighed.

"So? What am i here for then? You might have forgotten that you are bestfriends with Kim Taeyeon. The Kim Taeyeon. Standing right here, next to you."

Yuri chuckled. "Yeah. Keep on bragging, The Kim Taeyeon."

Taeyeon playfully smacked Yuri's head. "I am serious though, Yul. Just give me the signal and you know what I can do."

"Thanks, Taeng. I know that and I might just count on you on that matter. We have to talk to Tiff first. Something important. If she agrees, I would definitely go to you for help. We would really need that."

"Anytime, Yul. You know that."

"And Taeng..."

"Hmmmm?"

"Please. Please, take care of her... Watch over her whenever we are not here. Please protect her and be there for her just like how you are with and for me. Like your life depends on it."

Taeyeon smiled at Yuri. "You've got nothing to worry about. I've got her covered, Yul. Just like how I've got you and Jessica."

Yuri patted Taeyeon's shoulder as a sign of her gratitude before pulling Taeyeon to where Tiffany and Jessica were at so they could get going.

"Ready princesses?" Yuri asked.

"Yessssss! Yes! Pink princess is ready Yuri!!" Tiffany excitedly exclaimed like a little kid, standing up from the couch, clapping her hands.

Yuri, Jessica and Taeyeon could just smile and chuckle at the cute sight.

"I will try my best to give you the childhood you've never had, my angel. I will give you the childhood you were deprived of." Taeyeon thought to herself as she keeps her eyes on Tiffany.

During their drive to the amusement park, Tiffany kept on singing and chanting which made the other three smile. It is like watching a little kid, excited to play outside.

Tiffany bolted out of the car as soon as it was parked and ran to the entrance.

"Taeng, can you run after Tiff please? We'll be right behind you." Yuri asked.

Taeyeon nodded and ran to look for Tiffany. Tiffany felt a warm hand envelop her wrist and made her turn around. She saw a panting Taeyeon with her other hand on one of her knees, catching her breath.

"Yah. How could you run that fast. You didn't even wait for me." Taeyeon poutedas her eyes met Tiffany's.

Tiffany giggled in response and said, "Sorry baby. I'm just really excited. Oh my gosh! Look at that, so colorful! I can hear the fun music too! Come on. Please, please let's go inside now!"

Taeyeon shook her head as she giggled along with Tiffany. "Please stop being too cute and adorable right now before I totally lose my control and I'll just hug you and kiss you right here."

Taeyeon's remark made Tiffany blush. And before she could even answer Taeyeon, they heard Yuri and Jessica calling out for them. Taeyeon reluctantly released Tiffany's wrist from her grip.

"Taeng! Tiff!" Yuri called out. "Aigoo. Tiff, you run too fast. Thanks, Taeng."

"Seobang, let's go. Look. The person you were just talking to is already over there by the ticket booth. And, I am excited too you know?"

After a playful bickering between Yuri and Taeyeon on who's going to pay for their pass, Yuri won. 

Tiffany took hold of Taeyeon's, Yuri's and Jessica's hands and wrists as she pulled the three with her as they passed through the gates. Tiffany released the three from her hold he stood in amazement and awe, looking at the park before her, an excited smile painted on her face.

"Jessi!! What's in there? I wanna go there!" Tiffany exclaimed, pointing at the store by the gates. She ran over without waiting for an answer and for the other three to follow her and looked all over the place, admiring the assorted accessories and goodies before her eyes. Tiffany grabbed a pink bunny ears headband, a princess tiara, a pink masquerade mask and a pink scepter.

"Jessi, can I please please please buy these??" Tiffany asked, pouting and showing off her puppy eyes, not only to Jessica but also to Yuri and Taeyeon, who were all wearing a stunned and confused expression. 

"Hey. Is it too much?" Tiffany asked again when she heard no response from the others. She had her head hanging low as she slowly put the things on her hands back to where she got
