Chapter 14

Sidney came later looking well rested like my mom she came with Casey's English book and then I remembered we had homework.We did it while the mom's talked downstairs.Casey was having problem with it,it was expository writing and I get why he was having problem.He was almost going to cry until I hug him and helped him.I made him write his story first then I corrected him.He picked the topic 'why I didn't take the short cut again' while I wrote about an old woman.His story sounded great if you took the time and read it with understanding.It didn't take long to correct him because he was a fast learner and when we were finish I felt proud of him.We did a little talking after that and I corrected him,he still pronounced his words differently but I didn't mind.I like him that way he was cute.

It's Sunday and I'm helping my mom in the kitchen.I was cutting up the vegetables while she mix the ingredients for her pie.Casey and Sidney are having dinner with us,they will be coming soon.

"So how's your relationship with Casey?".mom ask.

"What do you mean?"i ask.

"Like are you guys friends or more than friends".

"Just friends,nothing more why?".

"Nothing,why don't you ask him out?".She ask and I sighed.

"I'm not gay,why do you want me to be with him so badly?".

"Coz,I've always wanted a gay son".she smile.

"No surprise there".i roll my eyes.

"And you say you aren't gay but your mind is".i stop cutting.

"What do you mean?".

"Have you seen your baby pictures".

"Some,the ones you showed me".

"You have a box of your baby stuff in the basement,your princess backpack,your pink Barbie blouse,blue and pink brush and the night light I bought you,your father bought a batman one but you cried that you wanted a hello kitty until I bought it".

"I was a baby".i pointed out

"You were 8".

"Well I don't remember".

"Get the baking tin for me,I'm just saying you should leave that apple girl and be with Casey.Its obvious you like him.I never really liked Apple".i handed her the tin.

"I did leave Apple but I'm not with Casey,I tried to tell him that I liked him yesterday but he didn't get it".

"you have to understand that he haven't had many experience to the world,try watching a romance movie with him".

The door bell rang and I wash my hands and went to the door.
