Ok. So, I'm out to two of my friends, who are super chill about it, and we were having lunch in our favorite teachers classroom, and were talking about parents. I was like, "Me dad's a dick." And Mr. T just laughed, and I had this weird moment where I... Forgot I was talking to him and not just the two friends? And so I was like, "Seriously! My sister told me not to come out to him in case he throws me out." And then, as we all realize how much I just played myself, it's dead quiet. Then Aliza goes, "Well, ya done fucked up, so you might as well explain." And so I was like backpedaling, and went, "No, he doesn't give a shit." And Mr T was like, "I do give a shit, and I'm also very confused. Please explain what the hell is happening." And so I just looked at the ceiling and was like, "I'm bi." And he goes, "Oh, okay. How did these two find out?" And then we all started laughing, and Mady goes, "She screamed at the love story we were reading together in Spanish, "YOU FORMULAIC PIECE OF SHIT, BE MORE QUEER LIKE ME!" And Mr. T laughed his ass off. He goes, "Wow. I did NOT see that coming." And Mady and Aliza and I all went, "How?" I didn't plan on coming out that day, but it's really nice to know I have someone to go to in case something really bad happens with my parents when I eventually do come out.
