HIS mother was onto him one day. She had a feeling that her son is hiding something from her.
And when she saw a make-up kit on his study desk, she didn't believe it at first. And when she saw an essay about his ambitions, she couldn't believe it either.
"Mom?"
She turned to see her son.
"You wanted to be a gymnast?" his mother spoke.
Peter didn't answer.
"How could you do this to our family?!"
His mother was angry.
"I-It's not what you think"
"Then what?!" she was crying.
Peter couldn't hold on anymore. A tear slipped from his left eye, and as soon as his mother saw it, she slapped him.
His only son.
"You will get rid of it. If ever your father discovers this, he will leave us! You knew" she paused. "You knew that you are the only heir to his family's company! He wouldn't let your older sister run the company despite her credentials, and he would most likely wouldn't tolerate you being gay!"
His mother cried and left the room.
His heart shattered when he knew his mom couldn't accept him.
His heart shattered when he felt no one was there to understand him.
