Story #624

When I came out, my dad hugged me, and it has been a long time since he did that. My mom was still in the state of shock, but both of them tolerated me. But they both said that this is just a “phase” I’m going through, although I know deep in my heart that I’m really gay, I just didn’t voice that out of respect for them. What I was inculcating in mind the whole time was that at least they now know and that they want me to be happy for who I am.
