Krystal's POV

"So it's a yes Mrs. Liu?"

 

My heart is racing and the butterflies in my stomach won't stop fluttering. Just say Yes please and we can all live happily ever after. Oh my Gahd. That sounds so Disney.

From the corner of my eye I can see beads of sweat rolling down on Amber's face. I'm digging my nails on her palms unintentionally because of my nervousness but I'm still keeping my cool facade.

"I'll say Yes..If.."

She's staring at me with a blank expression and I can't help myself but pray to the heavens above that this end quickly.

"if you stop calling me Mrs. Liu.." a small smile suddenly crept on her lips and I knew this talk will end smoothly.

 

"W-well then... Ummm... Okay.. Mama Liu?" Amber let out a big sigh beside me making me hug her sides. She's too adorable making that expression. Finally. I laughed softly at her teary eyed and her Mom did too.

"Good. So.. let's see Amber slip that beautiful ring in your finger. Amber? Why are you spacing out! The ring! Give it to your girlfriend now!"

"Hey llama.. are you okay?" I whispered to her.

She was smiling at me brightly and I noticed that her eyes had a glassy look "I am Soojung.... G-give me your hand.." I gave my hand to her and Amber picked up the ring from the box and looked straight into my eyes.

"So... Here it is we got a ring now~." I chuckled softly at her silliness and she laughed at it. She took a deep breath and released it loudly, grinning at me, then slowly, slipping in the ring on my finger and brought her lips giving it a peck . Wow.. daebak.. it fits perfectly on my fingers. Oh my God... Am I going to wear it while cooking?! Or I can take it out and slip it back on after duty hours?! Why am I thinking about this now?!

I feel so giddy now and can't help myself but to cup her face and rub our noses together. I would like to kiss her til we ran out of breath but we got some audience so it's a no. It can wait later *wink*

"We should hold a dinner with your parents immediately Soojung. I suggest that we make a visit in Seoul tomorrow and make up the plans for you and Amber's wedding. Your engagement ceremony must be held next week ASAP!" Grandma exclaimed and the elders nodded in agreement.

"Thank you Mom.." Mrs. Liu gazed warmly at Amber smiling as her daughter reach for her hand on the table. I'm happy that she's making up to her daughter for all she has done. It isn't too late to change, for the sake of her daughters.

After the hearty breakfast with the elders, I decided to take a walk in the courtyard taking some gulps of fresh air the nature can offer. Amber told me she'll follow me after making a call to Jackie so I let myself roam around the courtyard before going back to our room.
