The next morning, We all were having family breakfast together. It was very nice and everyone was in good mood. Papa was laughing at the jokes that he was telling us all. I and Ananya were looking at each other with an amused expression. It was so nice.
Suddenly Maa asked," Aryan"
"Haa Maa" (Yes Mother)
"Did you look at the picture of girls I sent you?"
Ananya started looking at me.
"Maa Please. Don't start so early in the morning. I already told you I am not interested in dating or getting married right now. Please stop asking me and stop sending me pictures for a blind date." I said angrily.
"Look at the way you are talking to me. I am only thinking about you. You are already 26 but you still haven't dated anyone. You don't meet anyone. Do you think I like seeing you like that?" Maa said raising her voice angrily.
"Maa, Why are we having this conversation this early in the morning, stop forcing Bhai. He'll tell himself when he is ready for dating." Ananya tried to calm Maa down.
But it was like Maa doesn't want to hear anything.
Of "Of course, I am one always forcing him. I am the villain. Your children will never understand your parent's hearts. All I want him is to have someone in his life but you all will only think I am wrong.."
"Maa. I am not saying you are wrong just for once try to understand from my point too."
"What do you want me to understand?"
I looked at Dad for help but he just looked away because he don't like to argue with mom too.
"Tell me. Why can't you just meet her once?"
"I can't."
"Why? Just tell me why?" She shouted.
A beautiful family breakfast was ruined and I was very angry and on verge of bursting, and maa was angrily asking why. Ananya was trying to control me and dad was trying to calm my mom down. It was not the first time this conversation happened. Each time I would angrily leave the house but today I couldn't keep my calm and shouted
"Because I am not interested in girls. I am interested in boys. I am Gay." I shouted first time so bad in my whole life.
There was pin-drop silence.
