不論她是從什麼樣的文化背景來的 我都感謝她對我的幫助 從元宵節燈會展示的一盞上了紅色指甲油的大龍燈，馨宜知道迪娜她又回來了。爸爸媽媽離婚後，菲籍看護迪娜陪她度過了那一段寂寞又慘澹的日子。因為迪娜，她學習到如何尊重不同文化種族的人，也很快接納她的大陸新「媽媽」。事過兩年，馨宜很高興看到迪娜的蛛絲馬跡，說不定有一天會去找她敘舊…… 元宵節，馨宜和新「媽媽」去賞花燈。這個媽媽是去年冬至爸爸才結婚的對象，馨宜決定要敞開心胸接納她。她們一起辦年貨，料理不同風味的食物，過個豐盛的年。現在她們一起上街賞燈。 一盞擦著指甲油的大青龍燈引起馨宜的注意。它和阿公做的一模一樣，只是腳爪上擦了紅指甲。迪娜是阿公的徒弟，燈籠也做得很好，既然這個燈籠不是阿公的作品，顯然就是迪娜的。 馨宜想起五年級的時候，爸媽剛離婚，爸爸到中國經商，她住到雲林鄉下陪阿公阿嬤。阿嬤臥病在床，家裡雇了菲籍看護迪娜幫忙。由於環境驟變，馨宜與新同學還沒建立好互動關係，情緒經常很低落，有時會對迪娜頤指氣使，甚至故意藉機找迪娜麻煩，阿公看到了，嚴厲糾正她，反而讓她更遷怒迪娜。 在學校裡，馨宜受到女同學的排擠，因此對一名長得頗帥、又對她很友善的男同學自然產生好感；少女情懷讓她不知能對誰開口。她的媽媽雖然來看她，卻也忙著適應自己的新男朋友，無暇顧及她的心事，讓她覺得更孤單。 馨宜第一次初經來潮，阿公不知該如何處理，便叫迪娜幫她。學校教過生理衛生，不過真正面臨時還是會慌亂。經過這個插曲，馨宜開始跟迪娜比較親近，有些小祕密會互相分享。她告訴迪娜她學校的事，迪娜告訴她菲律賓的家人和風俗民情。馨宜也漸漸了解一個人離鄉背井、到別的國家工作的辛苦與寂寞。 迪娜是天主教徒，在阿公家裡，她會盡責的幫忙打點拜拜的事，料理臺式的供品。她在自己房裡放了一棵小聖誕樹，在樹上安了一盞小星燈，想家或心情不好的時候，就會跪在小星燈前禱告。 阿公是做大龍燈的師傅，他參加傳統燈籠製作比賽，得了第一名。縣政府來定了六十個燈籠，阿公找不到協力人手，迪娜順理成章的成為阿公的得力助手，因為她大學時是圖畫社社長，畫得一手好畫。 姑婆的菲籍看護說了迪娜一些閒話，害迪娜受到阿公責怪，但是馨宜曾經參加迪娜的聚會，她寧願相信迪娜只是開開心心的和自己的同胞一起玩樂，以慰鄉愁，並沒有不檢點。那一陣子，迪娜時常在小星燈前禱告，馨宜也常陪伴她。 阿公有一晚參加喜宴，
