Grace is Pamela’s real sibling, but she is much closer to Venice than to Pamela. Venice loves Grace dearly and always takes care of her.
She was the one who taught Grace how to dance. Grace constantly looks for Venice and is so attached to her that even their family members joke that Grace and Venice seem like real sisters.
Wherever Venice goes, Grace follows. Whatever Venice does or eats, you’ll always find Grace right beside her.
Grace is a good girl, but she has a short temper. Don’t even think about messing with her—she won’t hesitate to put you in your place.
She’s sweet but has a sharp edge. She treats people exactly how they treat her. If someone wrongs her, she believes in “an eye for an eye.” She doesn’t care who she’s talking to; if they treat her badly, she’ll show no mercy.
Even Venice sometimes finds her intimidating and has to remind her, “Chill, girl, chill.” But Grace? She doesn’t know how to chill when she’s angry.
There’s one particularly funny story about Grace—one that proves how tough she is, except when it comes to her father.
One time, Grace and Venice decided to try eating natural clay, even though they knew they shouldn’t. That clay was meant for skincare, but they were curious. So, they bought some and stuffed it into Grace’s dress pocket. The problem? Eating natural clay was strictly forbidden in their house. And to make things worse, Adam Uncle—Grace’s father—was the strictest figure in the family.
He was responsible for all the cousins’ education and school matters, and he was terrifying. If you did something wrong, a slap was guaranteed.
As they walked into the house, Adam Uncle spotted them. “Where were you two?” he asked.
Panic set in. Grace and Venice started fumbling with their words. Adam Uncle was a genius at reading faces—he could tell immediately when someone was hiding something. “Where did you go?” he repeated.
Trying to stay calm, they replied, “We were just wandering around the food shops in the alley.”
But Grace was so nervous that she unknowingly kept touching her pocket. Adam Uncle noticed and narrowed his eyes. “What’s in your pocket?” he asked. “Show me.”
At that moment, Grace completely lost it. She was so scared that she suddenly burst into tears.
Uncle raised an eyebrow. “Why are you crying? I didn’t even say anything yet. What are you hiding?”
But the more he questioned her, the harder she cried. She couldn’t even speak. Adam Uncle started laughing. “I haven’t even scolded you yet, and you’re already crying?”
This went on for almost an hour. Eventually, Adam Uncle gave up. “Just go,” he sighed.
The moment he let them off, Grace and Venice ran outside, grabbed the clay from her pocket, and threw it into the dustbin.
From that day on, they swore never to eat or even apply that clay to their skin again. They hated it forever.....
