"Mommy, I'm scared."

"For what, Joseph?"

"What if people don't like me at school?"

"Don't worry honey, it'll be okay. How can anyone not like you?"

"Mommy, mommy!"

"What is it, sweetie?"

"Guess what I learned?"

"What'd you learn?"

"A boy can date a boy! It's called gay. Jake's brother is it! Isn't that so cool?"

"Yes, it is, darling."

"Can I be gay too, Mommy?"

"Hmm... I dunno. Only if you feel that way. Do you like any boys? Maybe that new kid. What's his name... Marcus!"

"Hmm... Marcus is kinda pretty."

"Do you like any girls?"

"Not really."

"Have you ever?"

"I don't think so."

"Mama!"

"What's the matter, darling? Oh my gosh, what happened to your face?"

"Some kids beat me up!"

"On the first day of school?"

"Yes! I hate it here. I want to go back to my old school."

"I'm sorry, sweetie, you can't exactly do that. Do you know why these boys beat you up?"

"I said that this boy called Caspar looked beautiful, and they called me gay. I was really confused because why was that an insult? So I just agreed with them and then they beat me up!"

"Don't cry, honey. It'll be okay. Maybe... from now on... don't go around saying you're gay. From what I can tell, the people at this school don't like people like that."

"But why?"

"I don't know, sweetie."

"Mum... I did something I shouldn't've today at school."

"What was it?"

"I told Caspar I like him. I'm sorry! You told me not to be gay, I know."

"Honey, of course I didn't tell you that. I just said be a little more secretive about it. How'd it go with Caspar? You've been talking about him for quite some time."

"You'll never guess, mum! He said he likes me too!"

"That's fantastic! But remember, you have to be secretive about this, too. I don't want people bullying you."

"I know, mum."

"Beautiful, honey."

"Okay, good. I need to look perfect for prom."

"Are you sure you want to do this, darling?"

"Yes, mother. Who cares if everyone hates us, I love Caspar."

"Alright, then. Ah, there he is now!"

"Hi, honey! Long time no talk!"

"I know. But guess what?"

"What?"

"Caspar proposed!"

"Oh my gosh, honey! That's amazing! I'm so happy for you."

"I'm so excited. God, I love him."

"For what, Joseph?"

"I don't know, exactly. It's just a big step in my life."

"You'll be fine, honey. Just don't stutter when saying your vows."

"I'll try not to."

"I love you, darling."

"Love you too, mum."
