Chapter 13: Moving To The States

Sierra's POV

It's been a 14 hour and 16 minutes type of flight and I have been holding on to Ji-won since we've gotten on the flight. "We are about to land, are you ready to meet my mother and sister?" Sierra said as she smiled but as she looked over at Ji-won she noticed that he was sleeping. She leaned over and kissed his cheek.

"We are about to land sleepy head, are you ready?"

"Ne, I am. Is your mother even going to approve of us getting married? What if she doesn't like me?" He said kind of nervously.

I smiled at him because he had nothing to worry about at all. I loved this side of him, he always looked so innocent. I loved the fact that Ji-won will finally meet my mother and sister. FINALLY! Now Becca can finally stop pestering me about meeting him. Let's just hope that she doesn't embarrass me, at all.

The plane had landed, and my mother and Becca were waiting for me by the gate. I nervously introduced Ji-won to my mother and Becca.

"Mom, Becca, this is Ji-won. Ji-won this is my mother Tammy and my little sister Becca."

Ji-won smiled his beautiful smiled and my mother and sister immediately fell head over heels for that smile of his. I see where I get it from. The two of them couldn't stop staring at his smile.

"Uh, hello?" I said laughing. "Are you guys just going to stare or are you guys going to shake his hands or at least help with the bags?"

My mother snapped out of her dazed and started grabbing the bags as Becca helped as well. I pulled Ji-won to the side, "Hey, a quick pic of us in the states together?" He shook his head as we posed for a picture together. I started taking lots of pictures of Ji-won and I because I started a scrapbook of us and our journey of us being engaged.

As we rode home Becca talked him to death and wanted to know what it was like growing up in S. Korea and what the food and music were like there. Ji-won let her listen to some of his music and other K-pop stars. Becca is now a total K-pop fan, just like her big sister. Ji-won also sang for my mother and she fell in love with his voice.

When we arrived home, I pulled my mother to the side and told her that at dinner that Ji-won had something to ask her. So, when dinner arrived my mother prepared a big dinner American style. Baked chicken, pork-n-beans, and rice. For dessert, she made home-made banana pudding and an Oreo cake. Ji-won never had American food, so I hope that he will enjoy it.

As we enjoyed dinner, Ji-won stood up and looked my mother in her eyes. He was very nervous because he didn't know how my mother would respond.

"Ms. Brady, I know that you don't know me and that this is the first time that you are meeting me, but I must ask you something," Ji-won said still nervous.

"Go ahead Ji-won." Ms. Brady said with a smile.
