"Drop me here,"
All their heads snaps at Race.
"What? Why?" His daddy asked him. "Did you forgot something?" Isaiah added.
Race shook his head as he looked outside. It's already dark, he can't see anybody outside the subdivision.
"Race?" The warning of his daddy's voice. "Tell, what's the problem?" Then worry shows in his face.
Race shook his head again, "no, I'm fine, dad."
"Then, why is that you wanted us to drop you here?"
"Um," he's searching for a response. Race look up to think but he can feel the stare of his daddy.
It's dangerous. His daddy used to stare at him using that look when he's angry or upset or irritated at him.
He sighed.
There's no place to lie, he can't lie to his daddy. Isaiah knows his son so well.
Race sigh again in defeat. "I'll meet someone here," he finally admitted.
They all went silent. The silents is so deafening, he can hear the insects even though they are inside the car.
Hades cough. Isaiah blinks and Bridgette stare at him, shock.
"I gotta go," he said and about to open the door but his daddy speak again.
"Who's the person you meet with?"
"Friend." He didn't hesitated to answer but after that he doubted himself.
He don't know if him and Atlas is still a friend after what happened between them-the Atlas's confession. It cause a bigger changes specially in their friendship.
"A friend..." Isaiah nodded and glance at Hades.
"What's the name?" Hades asked.
"Can't tell you,"
"And why?"
"He's..." He's finding for a better answer of that question. "He's...private person, introvert and...he doesn't want anyone to-"
He then stopped because he realize something.
He said something. He mentioned something!
God, he wants to bury himself in the ground. He want to be a potato right now. He's hoping that his parents didn't realize it or they mishear it.
The nervousness he feel right now is the worst when he's takes his entrance exam.
He stares at his parents whose staring at him, waiting for him to continue, but there's no hints of confusion in their eyes and their emotions didn't change since he started talking.
Phew. Maybe they didn't realize it! Fuck! I would bury myself fifteen feet under the ground.
If you wondering why Race is acting like this and he's nervous because he mentioned something earlier?
It because he mentioned 'he'. Race said 'he' and that is his biggest mistakes because he just giving his parents a hint what's the gender of this person he's meeting with.
"Why did you stop?" His daddy asked, brows frowned.
Shit. I hope they didn't realize it. He'll die young because of this. His papa will tease him forever and would never stop teasing him until his last breath.
