A coming out story.
Isaac has been hiding in the closet for a very, very, long time. He's dying on the inside, but he never got the courage to say those two words, "I'm gay". And one day, he decides that he'd like to tell someone.
So tonight, after prom, when Isaac and his friends are just hanging out, he finally told one of them.

Coming out is such an intimate and significant moment for someone who has been in the closet for so long, even though there are risks such as rejection or disgust, it is definitely worth the risk. And you'll see that coming out is very relieving. Like the burden was lifted away from you. Just make sure you tell the right person.
