What a wasted potential of a truly awesome story...

Suzuka (18yo) fell in love with her older coworker Ruri (26yo), after at least 8 years of absence decided to meet during her birthday, unfortunately Ruri died along the way in unknown circumstances leaving her son at small cottage away from rural area, after few days of searching Suzuka found Ruri home and in it her son Fuusuke starving.

Suzuka treated Fuusuke as a momento left by her unrequited love, driven by guilt from birthday meeting that caused death of Ruri, decided to take care of Fuusuke.

They shared moments of mother and son development, hardships of Fuusuke obvious vampirism and urge to feed, whith Suzuka unfamiliarity of keeping a child due to her own family harshness nor motherly instinct, that started to grow by spending time with Fuusuke.

Unfortunately right after Fuusuke biological father (?) Futaro show up it felt like story was axed, the story didn't made sense at no fucking way, not only Suzuka didn't check their biological connection but let Fuusuke go overnight overseas.

This story deserved to fo for another several volumes, maybe potential love interest for Suzuka and two mommies taking care of a child, solving issues with constant feeding on Suzuka that would driven her into anemia.
Then taking custody of orphaned Fuusuke.
Fuusuke urge to feed as he grew up and be around "blood bags", his relationship with childhood friend Genki that treat him as supernatural being.

Sadly, it ended up with a mystery how exactly Fuusuke vampirism came to be, making it like coming of age at being 14yo, it would be better if Ruri be allured by a vampire or fell in love with him, but due to tragic events (vampire hunter, accident) died when Fuusuke was a baby, similar to "Wolf Children"...

Overall a very good story, but as much underappreciated... due to ending that made completely no sense at all 7/10...
