Flashback (Part 4/?)
After I got kicked out of my parents house I still hung around my sister. She was clueless of everything that was going on with my life. My parents had been dickheads and just thought it would be more pleasant to tell her that I decided to move out. Not that they had kicked me out. And by them saying I moved out gave her no reason to ask why. So I spent the day with my sister in a coffee shop down the street. Just to talk. I wanted to know what was going on and if things changed yet.
-------------- MY POV --------------
"Love is everything" my sister boasted as she talked on and on and on about this guy she met at night school. "This guy is perfect." she sighed with happiness. "Like perfect perfect." She smiled.
"Good for you." I smiled the most fake smile ever. Of course she didn't know it was fake, but it was.
"When are you gonna find the perfect girl." She smiled widely at me.
"I'm not really looking or anybody right now." I smiled back at her. I hated how hurtful this was. I hated my parents. I hated everything right in that moment. Though she didn't know I was mad. I was furious. I hated knowing that my parents didn't care and that they pretended like I didn't exist.
"I could help you find someone." She smiled.
"No it's okay Sarah I don't want to be with anybody right now." I saw her smile quickly fade.
"Fine I will drop that conversation." She replied instead of getting angry. "Why did you leave?" She asked as if not knowing this answer would kill her.
"I just needed a change of scenery. You know."
"Yeah I guess so." She still looked upset. "Is something wrong Gerard?" Sarah asked. She was one of the only people who still called me that.
"That's kind of the reason I left." I looked down at my hands. "I didn't move out. Mum and Dad kicked me out Sar."
"Oh." She paused for what seemed forever. "But Why?"
"You're gonna have to ask them. I gotta go hun. I'll talk to you later. You can still text me and talk to me though. I promise I'll always answer your call." I smiled at her. I gave my sister a quick hug and walked out the door.
---------- Sarah's POV ----------
I got home and put my stuff down on the sofa. Both of my parents were in the kitchen. I walked into the room and grabbed a cup out of the cupboard. My mother said hello first then my dad said hi.
"Hey." I said quietly. I got a soda and poured it into the cup. "Why did you guys lie to me." I spoke to my parents who looked dumbfounded by the question.
"Excuse me." My mother spoke.
"Oh you know exactly what I'm talking about." I yammered back. "Why would you just throw him out like that."
"Hunny calm down." My mother spoke.
"That little queer deserved it." My father retorted standing up from the chair and stepping in front of me. "Is that what you wanted to here Sarah. That your brother is gay and we kicked him out for it. Because damn straight we did. That is a sin and sinners don't live in my house."
I stood there and let my dad yell at me. I grabbed my drink and walked out of the room. I didn't want to hear anymore of what my dad had to say. I quickly ran up to my room. I couldn't believe my brother hadn't told me that he was gay. I lied down on my bed and put my headphones in. I wanted to forget that scene with my parents and talk to my brother face to face and not through a text.
---------- My POV ----------
"Hey." I smiled as I opened my apartment door to my sister. I had just moved in two days before. Exactly three weeks after I left my parents house. Actually since I was kicked out. I found it when I was driving around with Justin.
"Why didn't you tell me." Sarah looked innocently up at me.
It was a Saturday so I had no problem with letting her in the apartment. I gestured for her to come in so I could explain. She knew where the living-room was and I had bought a sofa after I left the coffee shop. So she walked over to the room and sat on the sofa waiting for me to come in behind her.
"It's not something I wanted to talk about Sarah."
"Can you talk to me now then. I mean I already know what's going on." Sarah asked with a careful grin.
"I guess so. I mean it's not something I was ready for at the time, but now I think I'm okay to talk about it."
"Good." Sarah said and turned her full attention towards me.
"Well what do you want me to say?" I asked her a bit confused.
"I just wanna know what is going on. I want to hear it from you and I want people to stop acting like I'm a kid and that they can't talk to me."
"Of course I can talk to you Sarah." I stared straight into her blue eyes. "Of fucking course I can" I smiled as she laughed at the way I used fowl language to show her I wasn't lying.
