Chapter 33

Because it was already past 8:00 pm after I got out of the gym.

I started running.

I felt good because I was exercising, and I missed my mom who had to work hard at the food stall all day.

"Mom, I'm here."

"Be careful, why are you running like that? Are you exercising well?"

When I entered the stall, my mom wiped the sweat on my forehead with her hand and said,

There are no customers in the stall.

"I'm fine, how about you Mom? Did Mom get many customers today?

"Quite satisfactory for the first day and the entire capital cost has been collected."

I told my mom how to calculate her net profit by subtracting the cost of ingredients and fuel from her sales.

I hugged my mom tightly.

"Mom, you must be tired today. Let's go home."

"Yes, then."

After cleaning up, I pulled the cart and went home while chatting with my mom about the many things that happened today.

"I can see that my son is very popular with women today."

My mom laughed teasingly at me when she told me what happened during the day.

"Ah no that's-..."

"NO. Your mom is in a very good mood today. My son is tall, studies well, has a handsome face and has a good physique... Of course, girls have no choice but to like you."

My mom said that she was in a good mood, and she even made a dirty joke that she wouldn't normally make.

I held the cart with one hand and reached out with the other to grab my mom's hand.

"No matter how popular I am with girls, I only see my beautiful mom in my eyes."

"Bah! You dare to lie. You always have a smell like women's cosmetics every time you come home..."

"Ah! I don't. It must just be your feelings, Mom."

"I understand. Okay. I won't talk about it anymore."

My mom must have found my reaction very funny, so she continued to tease me while laughing.

My mom moved her hand and placed it between my fingers.

"Ah! A night like this. My son and I went on a date, what a perfect day..."

"I like it too. We're like newlyweds, aren't we? After work, we come home to hold hands like this."

"That's right. I must be very lucky to have a son like you, hmm... Good."

With a flushed face, my mom grasped my hand tighter.

It seemed that my mom had accepted in her heart that I was now her husband, but she made no effort to express it verbally and only through vague actions.

After reaching home, and climbing the stairs, I wrapped one arm around my mom's waist and whispered in her ear.

"Mom, look forward to tonight."

I could feel the strange excitement and anticipation in my mom's eyes as she wore an embarrassed expression.

The next day, I wanted to take the day off due to the Korean writing system's creation holiday, to accompany my mom on business today, but my mom refused and she said that I shouldn't take the day off and leave the business to her.

I also had an appointment in front of the school at 12, so I went out a little early and helped open the food stall with my mom.

Unexpectedly, by lunchtime, some customers came to buy rice cake skewers and wheat cake skewers.

My mom and I worked vigorously, and when I saw a black sedan standing in front of the school gate, I told my mom that I had a lunch appointment, so I asked my mom for permission, which she granted.

Seeing me approach the car, my mom kept looking at me as if she wanted to ensure my safety.

I waved my hand at my mom and got into her car.

I thought there would be Dominic, but a gangster with a face I had never seen before was driving.

In an awkward atmosphere, the car drove for about 10 minutes and entered a residential area near an all-girls high school near our house.

It was in the opposite direction of Dominic's office location.

The car pulled over in front of a fairly large two-story house, and the gangster who was driving saw me and asked me to come in.

It seemed to be Dominic Park's house.

I thought I was just going to have lunch with the guy near the office, but he seemed to be calling me home to his house.

For some reason, I hesitated in front of the gate, unable to enter because of the apprehension I felt, but the gate opened and the man came out.

"Daniel, come on. If you're coming, why not come in?"

"Ah! Hello? I thought we were going to eat together, but it's a bit surprising to be called here."

"Are you okay? Just think of it as your own home and feel comfortable. You can come often in the future."

The man laughed loudly, patted my back, and pushed me into the house.

The house didn't have a garden like the president's house, but the inside of the house was well decorated, with high-quality sofas, a large kitchen, and a dining table, so you could tell at a glance that this was a luxurious house.

When I opened the front door and walked in, a very pretty girl came down the stairs in the center of the living room.

She had long straight black hair and a light blue headband, her height was less than 170, her chest was convex, and her waist was narrow. 

She was wearing a pleated skirt that reached her knees, and it was a pleasure to see her legs stretched out under her skirt, straight and thin.

For a moment, my heart was pounding and trembling without me realizing it.

The girl was surprised when I walked in and looked at my face, then she blushed and stood in the middle of the stairs looking at me.

"Eh? Is that Brother Daniel?"

Hearing what the girl said, it seemed like she knew me.

"Luna, you know Daniel?"

"Ah! I don't know him directly. I only heard his name."

The girl, Luna, who was aware of Dominic's words, spoke her words in embarrassment.

"Oh! Daniel, you must be very famous. Come on, say hello. This is my daughter Luna Park. She's in her third year of high school this year, so Danie is your older brother. Luna goes to an all-girls school that you must have skipped before."

"Yes. Hello. I'm Daniel Sin."

"H-Hello. I'm L-Luna Park."

As if she had met a celebrity, Luna stammered as she greeted me.

"Now, don't stay here, let's talk over a meal."

The man led Luna and me to the kitchen.

"Daniel. This is my wife."

"Hello. My name is Daniel Sin. Thank you for inviting me today. Auntie is a very beautiful woman."

When I entered the kitchen, I was greeted by a very beautiful woman with neatly curled hair that reached her shoulders and a knee-length light blue dress wearing her apron.

This woman was Stella Park, 34 years old this year, and she was as tall as her daughter Luna.

As I heard, Luna's mother is a former Miss Korea.

Although she didn't win a prize at the Miss Korea pageant, she said that she fell in love with Dominic, who came to watch the pageant.

However, it is said that it was the man, who fell in love at first sight and used tricks behind his back to gain the woman's love.

Stella Park, an 18-year-old high school student, was kidnapped by Dominic Park on the day of the competition, took her out to dinner together and they even ended up drinking together.

It is said that the man took the drunken 18-year-old innocent girl to a hotel and ate her virginity, and got pregnant right away, so the girl was forced to marry the man.

In a situation where there was no choice but to have a child, Dominic who had just raised the Dominic Faction, and who occupied the eastern part of Seoul, had to decide to marry the girl he got pregnant.

As for the innocent girl, she was very afraid at first because the man was the boss of an organization, but what was unexpected was that when the man poured out his great sincerity to the girl, Stella finally opened her heart and accepted Dominic wholeheartedly.

However, Stella, who had a bad view of his gangster, never let the man show that he was the boss of the gang to her daughter, and under that influence, Luna grew up without knowing that her father was an evil gangster who ate her mother's virginity.

And even the girl recently learned that her father is a leader of a gangster organization in this region.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Stella Park. The mother of this girl. Nice to meet you. Please have a seat. I don't know if what I cooked is to your taste."

Of course, Stella replied to me with a smile and kindness because of the compliment I gave her earlier.

The meal began as Luna's mother took off her apron and sat down.

"Eat a lot, Daniel."

Mrs. Luna said her words while laughing at me who was just holding a spoon.

"Yes. I will eat it. The food looks really good."

It had been a while since I had eaten such a varied and delicious meal, so I fiddled with my chopsticks.

"Sure enough, it's very good. "

I ate in a good mood, issuing compliments from time to time.

Luna and her mom barely ate and just stared at me.

Stella looked at me because I was eating happily and looking good, and Luna looked at me with heart in her eyes for some reason.

"Hmmm, Luna. You should eat, Daniel won't run away if you don't look at him."

When her father said something teasing like that, Luna was startled and covered her flushed face with both hands.

Dominic and Stella burst out laughing at their daughter's embarrassed look.

After eating, we sat on the living room sofa and chatted while eating fruit.

Dominic and I sat on the sofa, while his wife Stella sat in front of the tea table, cutting fruit, and Luna sat next to her mother eating fruit with a fork.

As the couple asked questions and I answered them.

Luna quietly peered at me and listened to my words.

After a long time of talking about this and that with the two couples, Luna also started asking me short questions.

When I answered the enthusiastic girl's questions, they enthusiastically listened to my answers.

When her father told her about the gas station incident involving me and about my training at the gym, Luna's eyes shot out like hot lasers and pierced my face.

Perhaps because of the influence her father had exerted over the years, Luna liked hearing stories that I fought well and was good at sports.

Dominic was very proud of his daughter because Luna was a model student.

The girl studied well enough to always be in the top 10 in her entire school, even if she wasn't the best in class.

Also, Luna said that none of her friends knew that her father was a gang boss.

At school, she was always a model student and a typical good middle school girl who got along very well with her friends.

I also asked questions a few times because I wanted to know if anyone knew about her father.

Of course, it wasn't something she was proud of, but her life would be very comfortable if she knew the facts around her, but Luna didn't show it at all and lived a very normal school life.

Seeing her answer like that, I felt that this girl was very mature even though the girl had a cute and pretty face.

Her appearance is similar to her mom, beautiful and has a perfect body.

For some reason, I liked this girl, and made my heart flutter a little.

Although many girls at school approached me until recently, I didn't pay attention to any of them because I was still a teenager at this time, but Luna felt very different from almost all the girls who approached me at school.

My original plan of just having lunch and then going to help my mom afterward ended up not happening as I visited Luna's room to get to know her better.
