After that fresh air walk, i went back to the house. They're all asleep. As expected. I went out for quite a while, so it's no doubt that they didn't wait for me anymore.
I close the front door and went on my way to go to my room. I was about to go up to the stairs until a voice stopped me.
Why the hell does everyone stop me by doing literally anything here?
I turn around and immediately identify the voice. It's Crispin, ofcourse. Why do these brothers always like to be up in my business? Do they want to annoy me that much?
"what?" i ask them, breaking the silence. I will never understand why these two even want to be in my business.
"we were just making sure you got back safe." Basilio said in response, giving me a genuine smile and a comfortable look.
"well, now you know i'm safe." i say, trying my hard to sound uninterested. I'm just not in the mood if they're just gonna be weirdly homophobic around me. I mean, why else would they not talk to me after i came out to them?
I was about to go on my way up to my room when a sudden grab of my wrist stopped me.
"hey! Who told you, you could just grab me like that?!" i say as i struggle to get his larger hand off my wrist.
"we just want to talk." Basilio said, his tone being serious. He's the one who's dragging me by my wrist.
I didn't get a chance to talk as he just drags me into Alexandra's office room and closes the door after Crispin got in.
"talk then." i say, my tone being serious. I'm not in the mood for homophobic bullshit right now. I want to sleep.
"why have you been avoiding us?" Crispin said, his tone also being serious. Okay, so we're all serious.
"i'm just not in the mood for homophobic people right now. Look, if you don't like me, you keep your distance, and so do i." i say at the both of them. It's true. It shouldn't be that hard for them to accept the words "i'm gay."
"what makes you think we're homophobic?" Basilio asks me, his look is a mix of confusion and seriousness.
"it has.. Just been so weird since i came out to you and i thought you didn't accept me. Not that i gave a shit anyway." i say to them sincerely. I lied for the last part tho. I do care about what they think about me, for some reason.
"we're acting weird because the both of us are confused about our feelings about... Someone." Crispin said sincerely, his tone becoming worried and fearful toward the end.
"yeah, we have feelings for the same person. I mean, we think we could do a poly relationship but we're not sure about the person we like if they're okay about it." Basilio said in response, to really explain why they've been acting weird. I'm happy that they've found someone, but a poly relationship?
I have nothing against poly relationships but... They're brothers.. That wants to date the same person.. My brain can't handle this.
"oh." is all i could say in response. My brain storage is not enough for me to completely take in all this. Why couldn't they just make a lame excuse? I'm just feeling dumber every single day.
"so.. We're okay now, right?" Basilio asks me sincerely, looking at me hopefully.
"yes." is all i said, giving him and Crispin a small smile.
"well, this has been a nice conversation, but i must go." i say as i quickly get out of the office. That was wayy too awkward.
