"And the character for 'xi' also signifies light, hope, and a new beginning."
Daya, who was now Chen Xi, nodded emphatically. "Okay. From now on, my name is Chen Xi."
The second daughter squeezed over. "Mom, if Big Sis is named after the sun, does that make me the moon? And is Sanya the stars?"
"That's right. You'll be Chen Yue, and your little sister will be Chen Xing."
Tan You's expression softened. "As for pet names, you can choose your own. The moon has many elegant names, like Jade Plate, Jade Ball, Jade Rabbit, Guanghan Palace, Osmanthus, and so on."
The second daughter looked up at the moon in the sky. "Mom, the moon looks like a big, round dumpling, so golden yellow."
Tan You's mischievous side surfaced. "Then how about 'Tuantuan' for your pet name?"
The second daughter nodded eagerly. "Okay! I'll be Tuantuan! Then what about Little Sister?"
Chen Xi said, "The moon is round. How about we call Chen Xing 'Yuanyuan' for her pet name?"
