(It has been a month since Ashton decided to "stop being gay" to please his father so he could be with them during holidays. Michael is devastated. He was growing really close to the college boy, now all he wants is to hurt his dad for being so judgmental, ignorant, and unsupportive. But, he also wants Ashton to stand up for himself and not give up so easily.)
Ashton >>
Me: I just miss him a lot more than I thought I would. I thought I could get through this for my brother and sister but I'm having a really hard time right now
Abby: Ashton, just text him.
Me: It's no use. He won't respond most likely. I was an idiot and let him go
Abby: You aren't an idiot, all you wanted was to please your father for your family's sake. Michael should understand, just text him
Me: What do I say?
Abby: Words...
Me: Yeah, you're a lot of help, Abby.
Abby: Hey! I'm the one who gave you Michael's new number so I am helpful
Me: I know thanks a lot xx
Me: And you're sure he won't be angry at me?
Abby: I am sure he will be angry with you but I know michael and I know he will be so happy to hear from you. He misses you and the only reason I gave you his number (even though he told me not to) is because I know deep down he wants to have you back in his life.
Me: I hope you're right
