Tzuyu was tall, very tall in fact. At the age of nine, she was already the same size as Chaeyoung. Her older sister had cried about it for days after it had. By 11 years old she had passed Dahyun by quite a few inches - Dahyun gave Tzuyu the cold shoulder for days after it. But at the age of fifteen was when she really had her growth spurt. When she passed Jihyo in height, it wasn't as obvious as it was when Tzuyu passed her other mothers. It was when they were in the kitchen. Jihyo was making pancakes, she had already cracked some eggs into a bowl and added some milk. All she needed now was the flour. She searched around but couldn't see it in eyeline.

Jihyo was frozen, making sense of what just happened in her head. "Tzu Tzu," She called sweetly," Can you come here for a second? I just want to check something."
Tzuyu stood again and Jihyo reached her hand up to measure how far about they were from each other.

Nayeon was the only one at home. Jihyo was interviewing clients at the building on Jeju Island, Jeongyeon was in a meeting, Dahyun was out on a date with Yeri and Chaeyoung was somewhere in the countryside, staying with Somi and her family. Nayeon had consider
