Kang Mi Kyung is busy preparing breakfast for her and Dara. They've been like that for 7 years ever since her youngest son, Young Bae, went to France. She likes having Dara. She's like a daughter to her and she never regrets taking her home with her after her parents died.

She heard the door opens. It's Dara. She hurriedly scoops rice on the two bowls and carries it to the table. "Dara-yah, let's eat," said Mi Kyung. She looked up and sees Dara but she looks different. Her hair is lighter, falling on her shoulder and she has bangs. She's wearing a dark blue feminine looking long sleeve blouse, black skinny jeans, doll shoes and she's carrying a cream handbag. She's also wearing light makeup and she doesn't have eyeglasses.

"Good morning, Mom." she smiles brightly at her. Mi Kyung just stares at her.

"Mom, are you okay?" Dara worriedly asked her.

Mi Kyung's eyes start to get teary. Dara approaches her and touches her arms. "Mom, what's wrong? Are you hurt?"

"I-I..."

"MOM!"

Mi Kyung took Dara's hands and patted it. "I'm okay, Dara-ah." she smiles at her daughter. "You're so beautiful, child. These are just tears of joy."

Dara huffed and whines "Mom! Don't scare me like that."

Mi Kyung chuckles "I'm just surprised. I didn't know that you left last Saturday looking gloomy and bored then I will see you like this today. So pretty and elegant. Your sister-in-law will be pleased." her mom gushes.

"Of course she is." she rolls her eyes and beams at her adoptive mother. "It's just clothes, mom. And I was planning to do this for a while. It just happens that I saw a good salon yesterday and I have enough money to shop. It's my birthday, after all." she explained.

"I know. I'm happy for you, Dara." Mi Kyung said. "Okay, let's eat. You'll be late. Let's sit." Dara obeys her and sat down.

Dara arrived at work. She went directly to her cubicle and opens her computer. She checks some email from Ms. Hwang. Some documents that need a revision.

A few moments later, Ms. Hwang called her to her office. Dara went to her office immediately.

"Yes, Ms. Hwang?" she said. Sung Hee looks at her and she was startled. "Oh my God, Dara-ssi?" Dara just smiled and nodded.

"Omo, omo! I almost didn't recognize you." she stood up and look at her carefully. "Wow, you look great. Good for you!" Sung Hee smiles at her.

"Thank you. What can I do for you?"

"Oh... Yes. Can you get a red king costume in the wardrobe department? And then, bring it to Kwon Ji Yong's room. He needs it for his guest appearance." Sung Hee said.

"Okay, ma'am. Anything else?"

"Nothing." she sat back down. "Just get back to your work after that." she looks at Dara with a smile. "Thank you, Dara."

Dara left her office and went to the wardrobe department. Many people noticed the change she did and compliment her. She thanked them and told them that it's just the clothes.

When she arrived at Kwon Ji Yong's room, she knocked. Mr. Ha opens it for her. He was busy with his phone. "Just place it in the closet." She saw Ji Yong having his makeup while his eyes are closed so she went to the closet and hang out there. Then she smoothens it out before closing the door.

"I'm done, Mr. Ha." she said.

Mr. Ha looks up to her. Like Sung Hee, he was surprised to see her new look.

"Yaaah... Ms. Park? I never thought I would see you like this." he smiles at Dara. "You look good." Mr. Ha complimented her.

Ji Yong opens his eyes and sees Dara immediately. He feels suddenly the world stopped. He admits that she's pretty when she bumped into him but he never thought that she's more beautiful without glasses and her hair is down.

"Why the change?" asked Mr. Ha.

"Oh. It's nothing. I just treat myself a makeover for my birthday last Saturday. I've been thinking about doing this for a long time. I just" she explained shyly.

"Last Saturday was your birthday? Yah! I should have known." Ha Dong Hoon shook his head in dismay. "How about this? I will send you a gift certificate to my favorite meat shop. Buy what you want, okay?"

"Oh, no. You don't have to, Mr. Ha. It's fine." she said awkwardly. She tucked the strand of her hair behind her ear. Ji Yong gulped. He shook his head and speaks up. "How about lunch with us?"

Mr. Ha and Dara look at him. He stood up and approaches them. Ji Yong can see her now. 'Damn' he thought.

"Have lunch with us, Dara-ssi," he said directly at her. She looked up at him and their eyes meet. He was lost again on those doe-like eyes. She replied, "Thanks but I don't want to bother you."

"I insist. After all, you brought me my lunch last time and it was your birthday last Saturday. Think of this as a thank you and birthday gift lunch." he smiled at her.

"Yes, Ms. Park. Join us for lunch." Mr. Ha beams at her.

She just nodded awkwardly and bowed to them "Thank you for inviting me."

"Good. Let's meet on the ground floor at 11:30 a.m., sounds good?" Ji Yong said. Dara just nodded and
