Coming out

I had a girlfriend for a while now but I hadn't told anyone yet so i'm coming out tonight. Coming out is a big deal especially since your family might not accept you for who you are.

A few hours later.

It's time.

I'm sitting at the dinner table with my parents and 3 siblings. I've been think about how i'm going to say that i'm a lesbian and I have a girlfriend.

"Hey mom and dad I have to tell you something." I said.

"What do you have to tell us sweetie?" my mom said.

"I like women and I have a girlfriend!" I blurted out.

"EW. GET. OUT. NOW" Both my parents said in sync.

I ran upstairs crying not knowing what to say or do in that moment. I picked up my phone and texted my girlfriend.

Nikki: Hey bubba can I come stay at your house i'm getting kicked out.

Riley: yeah sure.

Nikki: Thanks I'll be there in 5

I texted my girlfriend and thankfully she is allowing me to stay at her house for a while. I packed everything and jumped out my window because I didn't want to see my families faces again.
