When Fai is reunited with Kaphrao, a girl she once bullied, now her father's assistant, she resumes her old teasing, but Kaphrao is stronger now than she was back then.

When Kaphrao's friend and long-time admirer Nod offers Kaphrao a job, Fai is overcome by unexpected jealousy.

Fai and Kaphrao begin their trip immediately at odds, but when Kaphrao is threatened, Fai leaps to her rescue without hesitation. Their proximity doesn't end with their return as they're assigned to work again once more.

Fai and Kaphrao travel to an island for work but become stranded together when a storm hits.

Deceived into entering an abandoned mine by herself, Kaphrao has a panic attack and passes out. Fai races to help her, but torrential rain triggers a cave-in at the entrance, leaving them both stuck inside.

When Kaphrao learns that Fai was the one who got her kicked out, Fai does all she can to make it up to her and prove her feelings.

Phani realizes how much she affects Fai's happiness only after Kaphrao leaves for work and a near-death experience occurs.
