Chapter 6

작가: Sweet Beet
The thug put his arm around Naomi and openly mocked Jon right there at school.

"You gave up Hoovard for Naomi and insisted on coming to vocational school to be with her. And now, she doesn't even want you. That's hilarious."

The students around them jeered at him too.

"I think he's just plain stupid. Giving up Hoovard to go to vocational school for a girl?"

"Stupid doesn't even cover it. He's a complete idiot!"

"Maybe he cheated to get that score, and he was too scared of getting caught to

  • My Son Threw Away His Future for Her   Chapter 9

    After talking with the doctor and confirming that Jon was completely out of danger, I hired a caregiver to look after him and only went to see him twice a week myself.Sometimes, after he begged and pleaded, I would visit one extra time.A month later, the doctor said Jon could be discharged.After I finished his discharge paperwork, Jon took hold of my hand and looked straight at me."Mom, now that I'm out of the hospital, are you going to leave me behind again?"I shook my head. "I'm not leaving you behind. I need to learn to enjoy my own life."For the past eighteen years, my whole life revolved around you. I never lived for myself, not even for a moment."But now I understand. Nothing matters more than yourself. I'm going to live for myself, too."Tears welled up in Jon's eyes again. "Then what about me? What am I supposed to do?""Jon, you're eighteen. You're an adult now. You need to figure out what kind of path you want to take."He tilted his head back to keep the tea

    By then, Jon had already come out of surgery and been moved into the ICU.The doctor told me that he'd been hit by a car while crossing the road. The impact had fractured bones in his chest, and the fragments had punctured his lung.They had been successfully removed in surgery. As long as he made it through the twenty-four-hour window for infection, he'd be out of danger and could be moved to a regular ward.A traffic officer also came to explain how fault had been determined. Jon was entirely at fault for jaywalking, and the driver was not to blame.I calmly took the accident report and signed my name on it.I waited outside the hospital all night. The next day, a nurse wheeled Jon out of the ICU and moved him to a regular ward.I hadn't seen him in nearly two months, and I almost didn't recognize the person lying in that hospital bed as my son.Jon had always carried a little baby fat, and his face used to be round and chubby. But now, he was nothing but skin and bones.He w

  • My Son Threw Away His Future for Her   Chapter 7

    My mom hadn't wanted me to marry someone so far from home. She said Jon's father was a smooth talker and didn't seem like an honest man.And if I married far away, there would be no one to stand up for me if I was ever mistreated.But back then, all I wanted was to marry Jon's father. I wouldn't listen to a word of my mom's advice.And so, just after I turned twenty, I married Jon's father and gave birth to Jon.After the baby was born, Jon's father changed little by little.He was no longer gentle, considerate, and accommodating like he had been before the wedding. He often lost his temper with me and our son, but for Jon's sake, all I could do was endure it.Two years later, after he started making money in business, he openly cheated on me with other women and even became physically abusive.When it comes to domestic violence, it either never happens, or it happens again and again. I knew that if I kept living like this, sooner or later, I would die at his hands.I filed for

Giving up Hoovard to go to vocational school for a girl?""Stupid doesn't even cover it. He's a complete idiot!""Maybe he cheated to get that score, and he was too scared of getting caught to show up at Hoovard.""Exactly. That has to be it. Otherwise, why would any normal person turn down Hoovard?""That's the best university in the country! Countless people would kill to get in, and he just threw it away. Even a pig wouldn't make that choice."Only then did Jon realize how terribly wrong he had been.He charged at Naomi and punched and kicked her like a madman."This is all your fault! You're the one who talked me into giving up Hoovard! And you're the reason my mom doesn't wa

    "In our family, the men do all the housework. If you marry my Naomi someday, you'll have plenty of laundry and cooking to do."Jon said innocently, "But I don't know how! My mom never let me do any of that growing up."Tasha's face darkened. "Then learn! Do you think I was born knowing how? Anyone can see your mother didn't raise you right! Starting today, you're going to learn properly, so you can take good care of my daughter later."Every day, Tasha ran Jon ragged. Laundry, cooking, cleaning, he did it all.One night, Jon showed Naomi a cut on his hand from a kitchen knife, feeling sorry for himself.As the one who was benefiting from all this, Naomi naturally wasn't going to fight with her own mother over him. She just went through the motions of comforting him."Jon, practice makes perfect. You're so good at school, I'm sure a little kitchen work won't stump you. Just do it a few more times and you'll get the hang of it."A wave of resentment welled up in Jon, but he had no

    After a long while, the door finally opened.But standing inside were a man and a woman he had never seen before.Jon asked irritably, "Who are you? What are you doing in my house?"The woman said, "We bought this house three days ago. It's our home now."Jon was stunned for a moment, then flatly denied it."That's impossible. My mom bought this house for me. There's no way she'd sell it to you!"You're lying to me! My mom must have put you up to this to trick me!"Jon stormed into the house, shouting, "Mom, come out here! Come out right now!"But he searched every room and found no sign of me. He roared through the house, "Laura McTeer, where are you? Where the hell are you?"The woman took the property deed out of a bedroom and held it up in front of Jon to stop his rampage."Look here. The owners on here have been changed to me and my husband. Now please leave immediately, or I'll call the police and report you for trespassing."Jon stared wide-eyed at the names on the de
