FWB
Helen still doesn’t meet my eyes, but the way she asks – curious and concerned – makes me think that it isn’t so much a diss on my mother, but rather genuine inquisitiveness.
I mull over my answer, before deciding to go with the honest truth. “It’s all new to her, so she still doesn’t fully understand when she says something hurtful, but she’s trying to understand. She’s been really accepting, all things considered, and I know that she loves me regardless. My- my sexuality doesn’t change the fact that I’m her son.”
Helen nods, my words resonating with something in her. “Do you think- well, if Mateo was, you know… Do you think I could talk to her? For- for advice?”
