Chapter 652
Chapter 652 I Don't Want You to Be My Mother
"He really loves you."
Meteor seemed to finally remember the awkward state of our relationship. He coughed lightly and then repeated the words I had just said, but he changed the object of the sentence
I smiled and reached out to pat his head, sighing in my heart that no matter how mature he seemed, he was still a five or six-year-old child
Meteor didn't escape from my hands, which made me feel relieved. So, when he let his guard down a little, I called his name and said seriously, "No matter who your father loves, you and I will always be his first priority. Meteor,
we are mother and child, instead of enemies. I know you may not like me, and I don't even know what I ever did that hurt you, but... I hope in the future, we can be a normal mother and son. If you need my apology, then I can tell you now, I apologize for what I did in the past, and I will never hurt you again."
Even though I couldn't remember what exactly I had done, I was willing to apologize to my child in exchange for a normal parent-child relationship. I didn't feel like I was losing out
But to my surprise, Meteor, who had always kept his emotions hidden, suddenly filled his eyes with tears and burst into loud sobs after hearing me apologize to him
The driver in the front row glanced at Meteor through the rearview mirror, although he quickly averted his gaze, I still caught his
astonishment
This undoubtedly indicates that Meteor has always been a child who does not express emotions outwardly, let alone breaking down and crying in the car
Realizing this, I immediately felt a deep sympathy. I frantically rammaged through my bag and pulled out tissues to wipe Meteor's tears, but his tears flowed like a bursting river
The more I comforted him, the harder he cried
It was at that moment that I truly realized how much he lacked care
As the son of Charlie Marilyn, he matured too early, to the point where he didn't even have the right to cry loudly, unless it was suppressed for too long, like today
And perhaps Charlie always took his maturity for granted, as if children were supposed to be like this from birth, without us having to put in more effort and emotion
It sounded so absurd, but that was the distorted parent-child relationship in my family
I sighed at Charlie's ignorance in parenting, while at the same time, I couldn't help but think that perhaps all of this was caused by me
To be honest, the past me 1s a complete stranger to the present me
The self that I had forgotten, whatever terrible things she had done, no longer mattered to meTêxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

After all, losing memory was an excellent excuse. No matter what happened related to my past, I could use forgetfulness to erase
everything
But for Meteor, the mother who once didn't like him, and even scared him a little, could never be erased from his heart
No matter how much warmth I used to compensate him, I couldn't offset the damage I caused to him with my previous dislike
The world of children was so simple, love and not love only existed in their feelings. They were not like adults, who could discern whether someone loved them or not through various perspectives and imaginations
I could show my determination to love Charlie by treating them well through my efforts
But when faced with innocent children, my one-sided wishful compensation appeared extremely
pale, and it also made me feel deeply helpless
Just when my thoughts were tangled, Meteor suddenly seemed to realize something. He forcefully pushed away my hand that was wiping his tears and then broke free from my embrace
I looked at him in astonishment, and saw his little hand raised, wiping away tears haphazardly. Sobbing, he said in a not very clear voice, "That's right, I don't like you! I don't like you being with Dad either! I don't want you to be my mom..."

This was the first time I heard these words being spoken so bluntly from Meteor's mouth
They pierced into my heart like a sharp blade
I didn't react for a moment, staring at the child's
lips for a long time until they stopped moving
However, the words "I don't want you to be my mother" still echoed in my ears
I instinctively looked at the driver in the front row, who had obviously received professional training, and his gaze did not drift towards us
But I knew that all these words had already fallen into his ears
At that moment, I didn't know whether I should feel embarrassed or sad
My hands were trembling, and when I spoke again, even my voice sounded hoarse: "So, who do you want to be your mother? Is that auntie?"
