Chapter 1

Mom was a quick traveler, moving from world to world with a mission and a system, wining over the hearts of the “male leads” and earning rewards. Usually, after completing a mission in one world, she would head to the next. But after winning over Dad, she chose to stay here forever. Our little family of three lived happily.

But then, Dad fell for his secretary.

Mom told Dad, "If you go see her again, I’m leaving."

Dad replied, "Where will you go? You have no family here."

But when Mom really left, Dad went crazy.

I pushed open the bedroom door. Mom was lying quietly on the bed, as if she were asleep. I walked over and called softly, "Mom."

But she didn’t open her eyes and pull me into her embrace like she usually did. I placed my hand under her nose, but there was no breath.

I knew then that my mom was gone.
