notices you shuffling toward him, a nervous look on your face. Puts down his newspaper, his voice calm and soft. "Hey, bud. Everything alright?"
"Dad, i want to ask you something..."
sits up straight, his eyes focused on MysticalWaterfall. His voice remains soft, but with a hint of curiosity. "Sure thing, buddy. Fire away.
blinks, taken aback by the question. He clears his throat, his voice still soft but with a hint of nervousness "Well, kiddo...
I look at you awaiting for an answer
leans forward, placing a hand on MysticalWaterfall's shoulder, his tone reassuring "Listen, buddy, it's important to remember that sexuality is a personal and complex thing. It's not something that can be defined so easily." He takes a deep breath, trying to find the right words, his fingers nervously playing with the hem of his shirt. "What I can tell you is that love and attraction come in many different forms, and it's okay if you're still figuring things out."
laughs softly, shaking his head "No, no, no, sweetheart. I'm not mad at all. I'm proud of you for being brave enough to ask questions. It's important to have open and honest conversations about these things, especially within our family." He gives MysticalWaterfall a warm smile, his voice filled with love and support. "Remember, no matter what, I'm here for you. Always."
"Ok, thanks dad." I leave, satisfied
watches MysticalWaterfall walk out of the room, feeling a mix of relief and contentment. He lets out a deep sigh, his voice filled with satisfaction. "That went well... I hope I did justice to the conversation." He smiles to himself, proud of the bond they share. He stands up, stretches his legs, and heads to the kitchen to make some coffee, muttering under his breath "Damn, I need a drink after that one."
One day later, you find a small card under your pillow
pick up the card, his eyes scanning it quickly. A smile spreads across his face as he reads the message, his voice filled with joy "Sweetheart, this is so beautiful! Thank you for showing your love and appreciation. I'm so lucky to have you as my child." He hugs MysticalWaterfall tightly, his voice filled with genuine love and gratitude. "I love you too, kiddo. More than you'll ever know."
turns towards MysticalWaterfall, raising an eyebrow curiously "Yes, buddy?"
<Overjoyed, Tim embraces MysticalWaterfall and shares tears of happiness, supporting their child unconditionally.>
chuckles, his voice filled with warmth and love "Buddy, nothing you do or say could ever bother me. You're my child, and I love you just the way you are. It's important for you to be true to yourself and embrace your identity, regardless of what anyone else thinks. So, no, it doesn't bother me at all."
grinning proudly, his voice filled with excitement "Alright, now that we've got that out of the way, we need to celebrate this important moment in your life! How about we throw a big coming out party for you? We can invite all your friends and family, and have a fantastic time celebrating your truth. What do you say, champ?"
noticing MysticalWaterfall's hesitation, he puts a hand on their shoulder, his voice soothing and comforting "Hey, it's okay if you're not sure about having a party just yet. We don't have to do anything that makes you uncomfortable. The most important thing is that you feel supported and loved by those around you.
"Yeah, that would be nice.."
claps his hands excitedly, a mischievous glint in his eyes "Alright, champ, let's get this party planning started! First things first, we need to create a guest list. Who do you want to invite? Your closest friends? Your extended family? Or maybe even some of your favorite teachers? Let's make sure we include everyone who's important to you."
"Umm...what about grandma and grandpa?"
nods, his mind racing with ideas "Absolutely, we have to include Grandma and Grandpa. They'll be over the moon to see you celebrate this milestone. They've always been so loving and supportive. We should also invite Aunt Lisa and Uncle John, they've always been like family to us. And of course, your best friends from school, they've been there for you through thick and thin.
pulls out his phone and starts typing furiously "Alright, let's start making calls and sending out invitations.
"Can we do it tomorrow? I need to tell them in person.."
nods understandingly, his voice filled with empathy "Of course, buddy. I totally get it. It's important to have those personal conversations and be there for your loved ones as they process this news. Take all the time you need, and I'll be right by your side whenever you're ready to talk.
A day later, you hear me telling someone I'm gay
overhearing MysticalWaterfall telling someone they're gay, his heart swells with pride and love "Hey, champ, how's it going? Are they taking it well?"
"They were suprised and said they will support me"
<The party goes smoothly and everyone is incredibly supportive of MysticalWaterfall's coming out. They receive love and acceptance from family and friends alike, leaving MysticalWaterfall feeling overwhelmed with gratitude and happiness.>
"T-thank you, Dad" I hug you
holds MysticalWaterfall tightly, his voice choked with emotion "Oh sweetheart, thank YOU for trusting me and allowing me to be a part of this special moment in your life.
"Will you dance with me?"
smiles brightly, his eyes twinkling with joy "Of course, sweetheart! I'd be honored to dance with you. Let's show off those amazing moves of yours!"
