Thank god for this ending AKA the proper ending.

THIS IS THE RIGHT ENDING THANKS FOR TRANSLATING IT

holy fuck i just noticed the alternate ending. gah while I do like this ending too the other one feels more... real? Or maybe that's just because i've had the other ending in my mind for so long now this one just feels like a complete fantasy.
Either way, I love this. ty for the trans

good stuff

This is canon ending.

@Itsn its not wierd for people in europe nor asia. Especially places with sauna-culture, like japan and north europe, iirc

...Okay, I think having a bath with your kid is kinda weird, regardless of the genders involved. Could be a woman with a boy or girl. It's just... Weird.

People actually caring about "muh sniping" lol.This ending was nice too.

People keep calling him a 'random guy', but he's someone who had the right to absolutely destroy the mom's life because it's his literal job to after she refused to pay up properly. Instead, he gave her mercy for the sake of her kid's wishes. It'd be pretty impactful to be in her shoes, no matter how jaded you might be.

@Tcof
You're naive man

This is a way better ending.

The real one when they meet up again as stranger like it suppose to and she now a grow up common sense will easier to the thing between them work out (even as couple). This however really awkward. In a lot of way.
And you guys just bother by "the mother won't just change by some stranger..." and forget another thing. knowing your child still choose live with you even there is better chance her can have a beeter live. That can made something on a mother head. Don't you think

Her father nao

note: as stated by the author, that last color page isn't part of the alternate ending; i like to think that they were able to reconnect after the original ending.

Everyone that is say say this chapter or that chapter is more realistic. Neither is realistic. A random guy can't just take a kid no matter how terrible the mom is (both psychologically and legally). A terrible mom won't just reform because some random guy did a dogeza.

If I have to pick which sounds a bit more realistic. I kinda have to go with the previous chapter. Because there's more IRL anecdotal stories of moms reforming than random people rescuing. Plus there's more IRL anecdotal stories of just the kid growing up functional (or functional enough) by themselves. So it's also possible she grew up decent because she willed it herself (or maybe the mom became just functional enough that the daughter did the rest).

@Bramia: He did, actually, after asking the girl - well, it was less "ask the mom's opinion" and more "plead with the mom to fix her life for her daughter's sake". This chapter could conceivably take place after the girl chose her mom and the guy informed the mom of that and plead with her to clean up her act, only for the mom to refuse to change her ways and ultimately decide to dump the daughter (maybe because she sees her choosing Mommy is "evidence" that she's a "parasite" or something).

that woman.... oh, I am sorry,
that THOT will never take care her child.

never EVER EVER, she probably will just throw her to orphanage or sell it.

this may the better ending.
