What I just told you was the story of how I came to settle into Kate's house.

I know it sounds weird and pretty fast, but the night we spent together we realized we got along really well. Luke was okay with me moving from his dorm room to Kate's loft, and now I devoted almost all of my time to the two of them. It was just the three of us now, Kate, Luke and me. Kate knew Luke was totally gay and I... Maybe... Bisexual?

Anyway, putting aside the confusing questions about my sexual identity, I came home to my family for the end-of-term break. I hadn't seen them in a long time, and I missed my mother and Glenn, who raised me without a real father.

"Your sister is coming here." As my mom grabbed the macaroni and cheese with oven mitts, she called into the living room where Glenn and I were watching the game.

Wow. Wait, it wasn't hard for me to avoid Sam when I was in New York because it was New York, but here? How do I avoid Samantha in our living room? Moreover, our parents do not know what is going on between us. Not only them, Sam doesn't know either. She probably thinks the reason I'm so mad at her and Matt is because they're messing with my reputation. She doesn't know that the guy she's dating now was trying to fuck me until a while ago. Damn it, what am I going to do?

"And she's not alone," grumbled Glenn, sipping a beer in the next seat, "She's bringing home a man."

Completely numb, I mechanically got up from the couch and walked into the kitchen where my mother was cooking macaroni and cheese. "Is this true? Is Samantha coming with a man?"

"Yeah?" She raised her eyebrows like a confused squirrel.

"How could you allow this?" I started screaming like crazy, "Mom, she's only seventeen! For God's sake, she might be living with a guy, but how did you let her drag that guy in here?"

My cruel voice caused Glenn to jump out of his chair and run into the kitchen. Glenn sighed as he leaned against the door, "I know, kid. I told her not to let this happen, but your mom says we need to get to know the guy your sister lives with."

"I know him," I said in a discouraged voice, "He's my ex roommate."

"Really?" My mother tossed her huge gloves aside, "Okay. Sam said on the phone with the guy that they were serious."

"Mom, for God's sake, she's not even an adult. How can this relationship be serious?" I shouted, pulling my hair.

Okay, so it was a fact that girls growing up in the countryside always got married early because they believed they could escape family pressure by finding a good man and becoming his wife and shit like that. But Matt? How did he deceive my sister?

"Calm down, my apple pie," my mother ran over to me and grabbed my shoulders, "Any older brother would have reacted the same way you did, but you said you knew the man. He must be a really nice young man to be living with you."

Yeah, that nice guy stuck his dick down my throat while he was dating Camilla. How about this, mom?

Soon a loud motorcycle noise was heard outside our porch. A motorcycle. This is not a car. I ran from the kitchen, climbed the stairs and went to my room and slammed the door. I ran to the window. It was seeing Matt and my sister jump off a Harley into the dirt. Wow.

I threw myself onto the bed and pulled the pillow over my head to block out the little commotion downstairs. I was trying to breathe deeply so I wouldn't choke or have a panic attack. Is Matt really at my house? With my sister? As I took a moment to think about how life is a joke, I heard Sam's cheerful voice, "Where is Ben?"
