Rosa was on the Upstairs of some of Charles’s cousins cow ranch, on the phone with her girlfriend.

“Now, we’re all sleeping in one room next to a Cow Orgy. I’d much rather be hanging out with you.”

God, did Rosa ever miss her girlfriend’s apartment.

Just then, Charles came out the stairs behind her. She took the phone away from her ear, dropping her smile.

“What are you doing, Boyle?”

“Just brushing my hair!”

Charles’s cousin, Becca, responded.

“Not you, Becca. I was talking to Charles.”

“I was just bringing you some water.”

Charles said, handing Rosa the glass. She took a sip and thanked him.

“So, uh, who you taking to? That your mystery hunk?”

He asked, a smile spreading across his face.

“Babe, are you all right? Is everything okay?” Came the voice of a worried-sounding woman from Rosa’s phone.

Charles’s face screwed up in confusion.

“Yeah, it’s fine. I’ll call you back later.”

Rosa said hurriedly, trying to cover her tracks.

“Is that a woman’s voice?”

“It’s my sister.”

“Wait… she called you ‘babe’. When my cousin called me babe, you said relatives shouldn’t do that. What’s really going on?”

“I’m dating a woman. I’m bi.”
