Ryan’s POV
I arranged to meet my parents at a nearby coffee shop since they had travelled far to see me. We ordered coffee and settled down to chat as soon as they arrived.
My mom reminded me that I would soon be moving to another boarding house, which they were both excited about. Even my boyfriend, Slyvester, seemed pleased.
I confirmed that I was moving only when a slot became available.
My dad then asked if my cousin Segi would be coming to see me. I replied, "Yes, always!" but added in a quieter tone, "But could you ask him not to visit our boarding house anymore? The last time he came, he ate all the food in the fridge, including what wasn't mine. It was really embarrassing."
My parents seemed skeptical, perhaps because I live with men in the same house. But I couldn't blame them.
"Anyway, what's the important thing you wanted to discuss?" I asked, trying to change the subject.
They exchanged glances before my mom began to explain.
