Today, my daughter announced she was bringing her boyfriend home. She said she'd introduce him as her fiancé, someone she plans to marry. To my shock, he turned out to be Shota—my former subordinate at work and, secretly, my former lover. I couldn't hide my surprise and confusion. Did he notice my reaction? Whenever we were alone, he started acting familiar again, drawing closer just like he used to. I kept telling myself to move on from the past and treat him calmly as my daughter's fiancé, but whenever he touched me, my body involuntarily remembered the feelings we once shared. How will I overcome these emotions? The developments to come are hard to ignore.
