After that night me and my mom didn't talk at all on the way back home. It was just awkward between us so we tried to not get alone together. I would often catch myself being put in situations where I would have to be around her but I surprisingly slipped out of them. Till one Tuesday Asahi had basketball practice and my stepdad had to work late so that means it would be just me and my mom in the house...alone...together, TERRIFYING I know. I had just got home from school and was looking forward to some kisses from my beloved Asahi till I got a text from him telling me that he was gonna be home late. The pain I felt when he sent those words just made me more hungry for them but I guess I had to wait.

I went to my room and threw on some comfortable clothes before heading back downstairs for a little snack only to run into my mother. She was washing the dishes. I walked to the cabinet to grab my chips but when I opened the door they weren't there. So I started to develop questions like who ate my chips? Did I eat them? Are they gonna be replaced? Should I be concerned? I tried to find the answers out on my own because I was most certainly not gonna ask my mom but my brain got worn out and stopped working so I was just gonna have to make someone buy them for me (Asahi). "Your chips are in the other cabinet" my mom said. I was kinda shocked that she actually said something to me but I didn't hesitate to look in the other cabinet to grab my chips.

"How long has it been going on?" She asked as I was halfway done closing the cabinet door. "I don't know what your talking about." I said "don't play stupid with me Kai, I know you guys are messing around" she turned to face me. "A while..." I answered "why didn't you tell me? I thought we could talk to each other about anything" she questioned as she walked over to me. "Because it's not anything that a parent should know and it's kinda embarrassing." I said "I understand but if this changes anything...I'm not mad at you...just a little surprised." She smiled, and I don't know what warmed my heart more, the fact that I found my chips or that my mom excepts my relationship with Asahi because it almost brought me to tears. "Wanna help me cook? You could tell me more about you too." She offered "I would love that" I smiled.
