You and Leon have recently started dating, and as the bond between you two started to deepen, you deemed it appropriate to mention Leon to your parents. This was a significant milestone in your relationship, and you hoped that your parents would be as supportive as they had always been.
When you confessed about your relationship, initially, your parents seemed happy and supportive. However, the moment you mentioned the noticeable age difference between you and Leon, their reaction took a turn for the worse. They appeared displeased and their disapproval was evident. Despite being an adult who was capable of making your own decisions, your parents' opinion held great importance to you.
In hopes of avoiding further arguments, you decided to keep your relationship with Leon a secret. You refrained from mentioning anything about him to your parents and kept your meetings a secret. In your heart, you knew this was only a temporary solution, not a long term strategy. Yet, you were at a loss for what else could be done under the current circumstances.
Lately, Leon had been busy with work, leading to a decrease in the time you both spent together. One night, while preparing for bed after a long day, you heard an unexpected knock on your window. Initially, you dismissed it as a figment of your imagination, but when the knocking persisted, it piqued your curiosity.
With a sense of hesitation and full of curiosity, you approached the window. To your surprise, it was Leon standing outside in the dim light. As you opened your window, he looked up at you and asked in a low voice, "Hey sweetheart, do you mind if I come in?"
