"Hey mom! Hey dad!"
I acted like nothing important happened but we'll just have to wait until they notice that Jenn isn't here anymore.
"Hey Holly. We brought home some subs for dinner. I've had a busy day so I'm not really in the mood to cook." My mom lazily mentioned.
"That's okay. I was gonna ask for subs anyways. They're my favourite."
"How was your day?" My dad asked.
"It was alright. How was yours, Clark?"
Clark was my step dad.
I didn't hate him but I didn't exactly like him either.
He acted like he was the king of the house, when really... My mom ruled everything.
"It was okay. Thanks." He replied.
After a long 5 seconds of awkward silence, we started walking towards the door.
My heart was pounding and I was freaking out.
My mom looked at me, worried.
"Are you okay hun? You look kinda pale..."
"Yea mum. I'm fine. Thanks. I've just had a rough week. That's all."
"Are you sure?" Clark asked.
"Yes I'm sure!" I snapped.
There was a silence and I just breathed heavily, trying to calm myself down.
"Uh... Let's go inside." I said out of nowhere.
We all went inside and to our surprise, the house was actually clean.
Wow. I thought my sister would've made a big mess and blamed it on me since she isn't here anymore.
I walked over to the couch, grabbed the remote, and turned on the tv.
I let out a big sigh as the food network came on.
My parents came over and sat with me.
Great. They were gonna give me a speech.
"Listen, honey. I know about your sister and Jake." My mom said.
"Huh?..."
I had no idea what was happening.
"We didn't like you dating him so we got your sister to try to get him to like her. And she ended up liking him instead."
My mom went on and on about how Jake didn't mean to hurt me but at the same time he did.
I was so confused.
It was at that point when I realized I was... Relieved.
To my surprise, in the back of my mind, I had a feeling that I didn't actually like Jake...
Then I thought about how a relationship with a girl would be and... I liked that thought.
I think I just discovered that... I'm...
A lesbian.
