I woke up the next morning feeling amazing as the memories from yesterday flooded through my mind. Getting ready for the day I took a shower and got changed into my uniform
Going downstairs I saw that there is another letter addressed to me making my stomach instantly drop and churn
My hands shaking slightly, I went back up to my room opening up the envelope
Dear Lisa
Didn't you understand my last letter? You're supposed to end it with Jennie. I guess as you carry on disobeying me I'll have to take action. Maybe this time she'll get more than a broken arm...
My chest feels tight and everything is too loud. I can't let anything happen to her. I won't let anything happen to her
I went downstairs barely touching my breakfast. All I want to do is see Jennie
"Sweetie, what's wrong?" Mom asked as I looked down focused on staring at my food
"How long do I have to stay grounded?" I questioned
"Have you stopped being gay?" Dad asked from across the table
I could lie. That would at least get me to see Jennie more
We could say that we are friends and I'm in love with the actor. No, that's crazy
"Well?" He questioned strictly
"Your a therapist haven't you ever had any LGBTQ+ clients?" I asked my mom
"Well yes I guess I have" she replied
"And what do you tell them. Do you tell them that they're 'confused' or that they will 'find the right man someday' how about 'it's just a phase'?" I retorted incredulously
"No" she responded curtly not elaborating on that point
"So what do you say?" I questioned
"I say what they want to hear not what I believe" she sounded irritated
"And what is that you believe?" I asked
"I'm no longer having this conversation with you, now it's time for you to go to school!" She snapped harshly before leaving the table
I walked to school with Bambam because our dad wants us to so we don't walk to school with who we're dating
He didn't think it through much because we meet each other near Jennie's house. Like normal Jackson and Jennie are both waiting whilst looking at their phones
"Hi," I said going up to Jennie giving her a quick kiss on the lips
"Hi" she replied putting her arms around my neck
Once we'd all greeted each other we all walked to school
Jackson and Bambam are both holding hands, so are Jennie and me
When we got nearer to school we let go of the hands each other because we're not out yet, whilst Bambam and Jackson are still holding hands
Walking into school we all parted ways to go to our lockers so we are ready for the first lesson
Jennie meets me back at my locker so we can walk to chemistry together
After we got to class and are seated I get the letter out of my bag and pass it to Jennie
"Another one?" She asked
"Yeah"
Jennie took a deep breath then opened up the letter
"No! We're not breaking up, that would hurt more than any injury" Jennie stated entwining her hand in mine under the table
"I don't want to break up but the stalker..." I trailed off concerned
"We'll be more careful, everything will be fine trust me" she replied sincerely
"Only if your sure, I don't want you to get hurt"
"Don't worry I'm sure" she stated smiling
I smiled in return even though at the pit of my stomach I feel sick with dread
Lunch was fun with Somi and Tzuyu talking about everything that happened after the play
They got a fantastic review in the school paper as well
"I'm already excited for the next performance!" Somi exclaimed in her over the top-performing voice
"Same but I'm also tired" Tzuyu groaned through a yawn
"Yeah you've seemed busy lately, both of you we don't hang out that much anymore" Somi replied looking from me to Tzuyu
"I'm grounded" I admitted
"What. Why?"
"What. Why?"
Somi and Tzuyu said in unison although Tzuyu's response was a lot less exaggerated
"My mom and dad found out that I'm you know" I replied hunting
"What?" Somi replied
"You know a gay" I whispered
"Oh but you can't change that" Somi responded irritated
"I'd happily punch them for you," Tzuyu said sounding so serious I had to laugh causing them both to laugh with me
"It's fine really, I'm fine" I replied lying
"Are you sure?" Somi asked staring at me
"Yeah, I'm sure" I lied again
After school, I got home to my mom sitting on the sofa crying
"I'm so sorry," she said
"Sorry for what?" I asked sternly
"I'm sorry for how I reacted to finding out that you're gay. I should be supportive and I'll try to persuade your dad"
"Wait so am I no longer grounded," I asked finding it odd how she just changed her mind
"Yes, I'll go get your phone" she replied walking into the kitchen
I followed her watching her take my phone out of the locked draw
"Why now?" I questioned
"What do you mean?" She asked back
"Why are you now choosing to accept me?"
"You was right. It was bad for me not to understand. I did a little research and have been thinking about it during the day. Earlier I put your stuff back in your room and your brother's stuff in his. I'm so sorry and I'm going to try. I'm your mom I should love you no matter what even if I don't like it" she replied
"Thanks" I mumbled taking my phone not sure of what to say
She gave me this sad smile as I walked out of the room
Going to my room I texted Jennie
I got my phone back and I am no longer grounded. My mum is going to try and talk to my dad about accepting my brother and me
She replied straight away
Yesss! We'll get to hang out more ;)
I smiled down at my phone. Could everything be okay?
Then I got a text
Congratulations you got your phone back. An even faster way to break up with Jennie
How does the stalker know?
Then an attachment came up. It's a picture of my mom handing me the phone in our kitchen
I instantly feel sick and rushed over to the curtains. Just in case they are way me
Then everything went black
