Falling Down
Chapter 20
And how did you expect I would be? I want
to know what this boy has done to my son.
He hasn't "done" anything except love me. If you really want to hear the gory details, he hadn't even kissed me until about an hour ago, and no, we haven't slept together . . . yet. I do fully expect that to change in the very near future, however.
No, I do not want to hear the gory
details -- especially not from you! Alex, I
don't know what's gotten into you, but--
Mom, nothing has gotten into me. I
have always been this way -- always.
This is what I've been trying so desperately
to get across to you, for years. And now
you need to accept this, or we need to cut ties.
I am gay. I am now in love with and living with
another boy who loves me. I have every intention
of having sex with this boy, because that's
what couples do when they're in love.
It's not going to just go away. You can keep trying to ignore it if you want to, but that means you'll also have to ignore me. And I am not going to put David on the phone or bring him home to meet the family until you -- both yourself and Dad -- accept that he is part of my life now and deserving of the same respect you would grant if he were my girlfriend instead of my boyfriend. That is final.
Silence.
