… … … … …

I bit my lips and stayed silent for a moment, trying to calm my mind as much as I could. During that time, I felt the gaze of the Heavenly President pouring down on me.

I took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, speaking carefully.

“Sa, sir… … I don’t think I can call you that right now. But someday, when I’m ready, I’ll think about it… … Ah, no, I’ll still use it sometimes… … ”

Originally, I tried to refuse as calmly and politely as possible, but I was afraid of seeing the CEO’s expression darken, so I gave an ambiguous answer.

Especially when he said the last part, I couldn’t even make eye contact properly. I felt an indescribable sense of shame at myself, who was the epitome of indecisiveness.

I cautiously glanced at President Sky’s expression, and she seemed to be regretful, but she was forcing herself to raise the corners of her lips.

“Okay. I’m really happy that you call me mom often even though I’m not mentally ready yet.

Then I won’t rush. Mom… … I can wait until your heart is ready. ”

A sigh of relief escaped her answer. A brief silence flowed between us, and soon after, the words of the Heavenly President broke the silence.

“I think you should sleep here tonight. It’s already late, and you look very tired.”

Her words made my mind go blank. It was probably my imagination that I had seen such a good person as the Heavenly President in such a scary way, but even so, the fear still remained in a corner of my heart.

“Uh, that’s… … That’s… … .”

I was really worried. I wanted to refuse, and I also wanted to just follow along. But what ultimately made me decide was the expectant look in the eyes of the CEO.

“It’s okay. Get some rest. I’ll prepare a delicious meal for you tomorrow morning.”

“Oh, yes. I will do that… … Thank you.”

Finally, I nodded and a bright smile spread across the face of the CEO.

“Okay. I’ll bring you the pajamas I prepared for you, so take a bath first.

Take it easy… … son.”

It was too late to refuse. I simply followed her directions and headed to the bathroom.

… … … … …

After taking a bath in the hot tub, my troubled mind calmed down somewhat.

… … In fact, the only thing that sank was fear, and even taking a bath in the bathtub was not smooth.

Just like the last time I took a bath at President Sky’s house, I somewhat expected President Sky to come in while I was bathing, covering only my private parts with a towel.

But today’s boss was much more proactive than last time. He said, “Would you like me to wash your front side too today?” and handed me a soapy towel.

The next thing… … I was so embarrassed that I repeatedly refused the boss’s persistent suggestions, and barely managed to avoid having my private parts washed by the boss.

‘Ahaha, it’s so cute to see my son embarrassed――’

The mischievous laughter of the Sky CEO still lingers in my ears. I remember my face getting even redder at those words. What kind of expression did I have on my face at that time?

I changed into the pajamas that the CEO had prepared for me and looked in the mirror, but my face was still red.

At that moment, the voice of the Sky CEO was heard from beyond the door.

“It feels good to take a hot bath, right? What should I do now? Is there anything you want to do?”

Because it’s something I want to do.

I tried to think about it for a bit, but I was already tired. My eyelids felt very heavy, perhaps because I had been soaking in hot water.

… … No, maybe bathing is one of the causes of fatigue, but not the only one.

Starting with not being able to sleep well all night because I was worried about the meeting between the sun and the sky president.

Even though it ended well, I witnessed the argument between Sky President and Sun-nim.

And then there was the time when I made a fatal slip of the tongue that I couldn’t quite pinpoint, and made the CEO angry.

And finally, to the incident that happened in the bathroom just now.

Everything that happened today has been mentally taxing for me. Today has been a really, really eventful day.

“I’m a little tired. I want to sleep.”

My voice sounded quite tired even to me. After hearing what I said, CEO Haneul opened the door and came in.

“Okay. Then I’ll show you to the bedroom. Follow me.”

I was a little flustered when she suddenly grabbed my hand, but I didn’t even have the energy to react. I just followed her silently.

Just like last time, the Sky President’s bedroom was really cozy. The soft pastel-toned wallpaper and soft lighting created a comfortable atmosphere.

She made the bed and laid out the pillows as if she were my real mother, making sure I could sleep comfortably.

Seeing her acting so similar to my mother that I remember from when I was very young, I suddenly became curious.

The age difference between President Sky and I is less than ten years, so why does she want to treat me like a son?

“Okay, now lie down comfortably.”

However, I lacked the courage to ask such sensitive questions directly. In the end, I followed her advice and lay down on the bed. The soft mattress wrapped my body warmly. The boss pulled up the blanket and covered it up to my shoulders.

“You worked really hard today. Get some rest… … Son.”

Her hand gently stroked my head. I closed my eyes, feeling the touch, and soon my consciousness began to fade.

The last thing I heard was the low, soft lullaby of the Sky Boss. To be honest, I was embarrassed because I felt like I was a real baby, but surprisingly, her singing voice put my mind at ease.

… … … … …

Yoon Ha-neul looked at the face of the sleeping boy, her ‘son’, and felt waves of emotion surge within her chest.

The moment her son called her ‘Mom’, her world fell apart. But it was not destruction, it was rebirth.

With that one word, the son quit the store and the world of Yoon Ha-neul, which had been gray and faded, was filled with color again. Like the moment when a black and white movie changes to color, everything became vivid and clear.

The ecstasy of that moment that she experienced today was still vivid in Yoon Ha-neul’s mind.

As she gently stroked her son’s hair with her fingertips, Yoon Ha-neul felt the excitement still surging inside her body. It felt like finally drinking water after suffering from extreme thirst, or like welcoming the first rays of spring after a long winter’s sleep.

“My son… … .”

Yoon Ha-neul whispered. As she let those words out of her mouth, she felt a thrill once again.

The tears in Yoon Ha-neul’s eyes flowed down her cheeks. They were tears of joy, an outburst of emotions that had been suppressed for a long time.

But deep in Yoon Ha-neul’s heart, a little regret also rose. Although her son called her ‘Mom,’ he showed an ambiguous attitude about continuing to call her ‘Mom.’

If her son had accepted her offer completely and continued to treat her as his mother, she would have been able to do anything.

He could have torn that blonde crazy bitch apart for daring to steal his son’s present, or he could have given her everything, including her body.

But at the last moment, the son took a step back. Yoon Ha-neul could sense the hesitation in his son’s words.

As she recalled that moment, a small pain appeared in Yoon Ha-neul’s chest. Her eyes were filled with mad determination. In order to make her relationship with her son forever solid, she needed a stronger bond.

“Forever… … Yes, to be together forever… … .”

She stood up slowly. A soft silk gown covered her body. The mood lights softly illuminated her silhouette.

Soon, Yoon Ha-neul’s breathing became heavy. She slowly untied the strings of her gown. The soft silk slid down her shoulders. The soft light of the mood lamp reflected softly on her skin.

Yoon Ha-neul had now completely taken off her gown. Now, her appearance was astonishingly voluptuous and perfect, like a statue of Venus under the moonlight.

She took a deep breath. The air in the bedroom was surprisingly cold, so she shivered for a moment. Or maybe her body temperature was so high that she was feeling cold.

“To be with my son forever… … I must create a child who resembles my son… … ?”

Yoon Ha-neul approached her sleeping son with slow but unhesitating steps. Her footsteps were barely audible, buried in the carpet. Only the sound of her pounding heart filled the room.

Yoon Ha-neul slowly bent down and took down the blanket she had covered her son with. She slowly bent down and gently kissed her son’s forehead, and her hair flowed down over his chest.

At that moment, the last thread of reason remaining in her mind snapped.
