No ReservationsA/N: Hi guys! Another double treat for all of you!

I spent my free time with Amber's Mom and Dad whenever I have. Being with them feels like having a complete family again. I introduced to them Dani and they loved her. They even offered her to study in the US and live with them but of course my sister declined it respectfully saying that she already passed the entrance exam at SKKU will be starting next term. But maybe, she'll think about the Master's Degree program that they offered.

We almost broke up right then and there because we won't stop bickering. But then I realize I love this girl and I want to spend my lifetime with her.." his eyes were shining brightly and took Mom's hand to his.
