My Adopted Family

Today is a very important day for me.

This is because it is a date day, so to speak, when I plan to meet my mom alone.

A date with my mom was an important event that happened only a few times a year.

This is because my mother has a busy schedule, so it may be difficult to make time for her, and due to the nature of her job, it is difficult to meet her outside.

Moreover, I feel like my mother's attitude has changed a bit since 'that incident' happened recently.

Although it didn't look any different on the outside, I couldn't shake the feeling that she was somehow avoiding me.

Was there some kind of change of heart in my mother?

A secret she holds?

I don't know what my mother was thinking, but it wasn't really good news for me.

In that sense, today's date was important.

This is an important opportunity to narrow the distance between me and my mother, from whom I have recently become distant.

I, too, feel burdened by my forbidden relationship with my mother.

If my older sister or younger sister, or any outsider, finds out, our family will be completely destroyed.

I caused damage to my family.

That was the thing I feared most in the world.

But now, it is too late to correct the twisted path.

Having already tasted a piece of the forbidden fruit, I was completely addicted.

So much so that I thought I would get forbidden fruit no matter what.

At this age, it was natural for me to show off my spirit as I prepared for today.

I prepared to go out with the feeling of a soldier going to war.

I have never cared so much about my appearance in my life. It will probably not be in the future, but today I did as I felt today was an important day for me.

With such enthusiasm, I headed to a high-end beef restaurant in the neighborhood.

It may be a subtle place for a date between a man and a woman, but it's a decent place for a dinner date between a mother and a son.

Actually, I guess I'm the only one who thinks otherwise; it's just the mother buying meat for her son for dinner.

I arrived at the restaurant with such anticipation and anxiety.

I had to face an unexpected situation.

"Welcome son, Ms. Cali, My son is Ryker. He looks good, right?"

How on earth did this happen?

On my date with my mom, there was an unexpected guest.

"Hello. I'm Jer Calista. Teacher was right, I heard you were good-looking, but I didn't expect you to be this good."

There was a woman there who was so beautiful that I was afraid to make eye contact.

When I heard someone like this call me handsome, it only sounded sarcastic.

"Hello, this... I'm Ryker."

I could barely speak without being speechless.

Although it was my first time meeting this woman, I didn't feel too uncomfortable because my mother was next to me.

"Rye, this is Calista. Do you know who it is?"

"Ah, yes, she was in drama My Strange Relationship."

Is there anyone who wouldn't recognize her?

Calista was the female protagonist of My Strange Relationship, and My Strange Relationship was a drama series that was too popular. Leaving 20% people, everyone in the country heard about My Strange Relationship Series and 60% of people had watched it and she was female protagonist of the series, who wouldn't know who she was.

One of the most popular actress is Calista.

The reason I know about that drama is because my mom also appeared in it.

The female protagonist, Calista, tries to grow the small bakery she inherited from her deceased parents, and my mother, the CEO of a large franchise bakery, sabotages everything.

These two won the Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress awards at the year-end awards ceremony.

How could I not know an actor who has such a deep connection with my mother?

However, Calista's expression when she heard the words 'My Strange Relationship' come out of my mouth was not so good.

It was a subtle difference that I could barely tell because I was always paying attention to what the other person was thinking.
