Tales of a Gay Teenager
Chapter 10: The past will always be a part of you
We went back home, I was emotionally tired. When we arrived I just dozed off on my bed. The next day, I woke up..still wearing clothes. I took them off and got into the shower. I got done and ready. I went downstairs for breakfast, Zara was preparing a very nice meal.
Me: Hey Zara, do you have any idea on Herald's whereabouts?
Zara: He said he had a family emergency and he already asked Mr Gabriel for a one week leave
Me: A week?!
Zara: Yes sir, a week
Me: Okay thanks Zara. Is Kevin up yet?[Kevin came downstairs]
Kevin: Morning Sam
Me: Hey
Kevin: Well, last night was terrific
Me: An exhausting day it was
Cassie: Guys I have to agree with you, look at these eye bags
Me: It's worse than a hangover
Us: Hahaha....
Zara: Someone is at the door sir, should I go open?
Kevin: I'll take care of it Zara, thank you.
We all hurried to the door, to see who would visit us so early in the morning. Kevin opened and Cassie gasped, it was...
Her: Say hello to your mother
She invited herself in
Her: It's so good to be back home
Kevin: It wasn't enough for you to gatecrash Dad's business function now you want to ruin our precious morning?!
Her: Oh no no no, I realised what I did was wrong, and I apologize for that. Oh and I not only came here in the morning but I come bearing gifts..
It was a suprise I never expected, Tom came in with a box wrapped in pink gift wrap. Gabriel and Diana came downstairs
Gabriel: What in the hell is going on here?
Her: Iam part of the family
Gabriel: Angela! Get out of my house
Angela: Oh no, these are my kids and my house remember?
Gabriel: [Silent]
Angela: What's wrong, why silence? I knew it, I will always be a part of the family
Diana: No!
Angela: Who are you?
Diana: Iam Gabriel's wife, and the mother of all these children you see here
Angela: I see
Diana: Yes you finally see now, after a whole 10 years of running away from your own family. What a coward of a women you are
Angela: What did you say?!
Diana: You little slutty b..
Angela grabbed Mom's hair and tossed her near the lounge room. Mom got up and slapped her face, grabbing her hair with both hands she pulled Angela around banged her to the wall. I watched as Angela threw a punch at my Mom's face. We then tried to stop the fight, but they were as like two tigers fighting each other for territory.
Gabriel: Stop it!![He shouted]
Kevin: Mom stop!
Me: Please stop it[ I tried to intervene but my mother turned and looked at me]
Diana: You stay away from this young man, and let me deal with this stray cat.
Angela interrupted her by kicking her leg. Everyone was trying to stop the fight, Tom who was just watching as we were quarrelling over the fight decided to step over. He pushed them both away and pulled Angela away, Kevin intervened and pulled Angela to his side, while I pulled my Mom to my side. Anna arrived:
Anna: What's happening?
Angela: Nothing sweetie, there was just a little misunderstanding [Breathing heavily]
Diana: Yes honey, we were just having a little argument [Breathing heavily and sweating]
Me: Mom calm down
I whispered to Kevin
Me: We cant have both our mothers fighting like this.
Anna: Mom are you going to stay?
It was quiet, Gabriel looked over at Angela.
Gabriel: Uhm..Anna, mommy can't stay at the moment
Anna: Why? I want mommy to stay!
Angela: Uhm mommy, has stuff to deal with okay? But I promise I will come back tomorrow
Anna: Will you?
Angela: Yes I will, Let me go Kevin!
She threw the box on the floor and went with Tom. Cassie and Kevin helped clean up, and my Mom went upstairs. I decided to follow her, but Gabriel grabbed my hand, we stared into each other's eyes for a moment. He pulled me to a closet room:
Me: What are you doing?! Let me go!
Me: Whatever happened last night was a mistake, I shouldn't have..
Gabriel: [He put his finger on my lips] shhh, I know..it was a great mistake
Me: Let's just leave this..
I pushed him off and got out of the closet room, Kane noticed me heading out and saw Gabriel inside.
Well, my Sunday was ruined. I had nothing else to do but watch Netflix on my phone the whole day. It was 8:31pm, Kevin knocked at my door.
Me: Hey
Kevin: Hey[He closed the door]
Me: What's up?
Kevin: It's so cold, can I join you?
Before I could even answer, he jumped inside the blankets and made himself comfortable, he pulled me closer to him and hugged me like his teddy bear while we were watching a movie. Moments later another knock came, it was Cassie, Keisha, and Anna.
Cas: Aww you guys are so cute you know that right
Me: Oh my gosh, can't we have some alone time together
Keisha: Not without popcorns, I bought some
Cas: Can we join in?
Kevin: Where?
Anna: The bed of course
I looked around the bed, and it was so small that it wouldn't fit five people. They jumped ontop of the bed and squished their way Inside the blankets. All five of us cuddled up and watched the movie, I felt happy and loved.
