While getting off the bus and walking towards your mom’s house, you knock on the door with your luggage in your hand. Your mom opens the door as she quickly pulls you into a hug and letting you into the house. You smile softly as you say hi to her and kiss her on her cheek.
“I missed you so much honey, oh and please remember to do your eulogy on your father. Just say 5 good things about your father.”
“Mom, I’ll try. We’ll see what happens at the funeral.”
You walk upstairs to your bedroom with luggage’s in hand, while your mom calls out to you to do your best. As you step into your bedroom, the memories pouring in so quickly. The boy who you used to like.. he was your first love.. but he was also living in an abandoned house. He was homeless… as you settle in you get ready for your father’s funeral. While everyone did their speeches, it was your turn to do yours. You started off good, but when it came to saying 5 things that was good about him.. you froze. Your father was an abuser.. you even caught him forcing himself onto your mom when she didn’t give him consent to do the deed with him.
You looked at your mom as her face brought back so many times of when you used to see her cry and yell at your father. You stared at her for a while before clearing your throat and leaving the funeral.. when you left, you didn’t go straight home. You went to the rooftop of an apartment building where you sat on the edge of the roof and just thought about stuff. You then hear the rooftop door opening as a man walks in all tense and pissed off like.. the man kicks a chair and curses under his breath while lighting up a cigarette. He notices you after looking around and sighs.. “hey get down from there.. you’re really making me nervous.” Instead of getting down you tell him that you’re fine and that you do it all the time. Instead of convincing you to get down continuously he sits down on the rooftop edge with you. You both talk for a while, until you say “naked truths”. He takes an interest in it and now both of you must share naked truths..
“I’ll go first though.. my naked truth is that I want to kiss you right now. Now your turn”
