Chapter 12: YesSunny's POVSkipping a class is not my thing but I guess I need to do it just this once. I can't let Parker to carry all the heaviness life was giving him right now. I'm here to help him and we'll get this through. I'm not leaving the clever guy during his darkest days. Not a single chance.I found him in the rooftop of the Engineering department. He was resting his back against the high concrete railings, both hands were cupping his face and the messy hair of him made me feel the doom he was going through.I carefully made my way toward him. I was surprised that he didn't even bother to look at me. I sighed and sat beside his spot."Hey," I uttered."You should attend your class, Sunny. I don't want to be the reason of your failing grades." He mumbled without looking at me.I faked a laugh, "This is my first time that I actually skipped a class and I did this on purpose though. I'm not letting you be all alone this ti
Sunny's POVParker and I were sharing the same bed but seem like a wall has been built between us. I could feel the awkwardness in the air. Honestly, I am not used to this. This is the first time that someone had confessed his feelings to me. I'm shocked as hell. Even my heart kept on beating so loud and I'm afraid Parker would hear it.He occupied the space beside the wall and I took the side within the edge of the bed. I knew that both of us are still wide awake. I am blaming my heart for this. It kept on beating an exaggerated way. Should I be afraid of having a heart attack? I guess so.I closed my eyes and calmed myself. I felt Parker moved and turned to face me. Now, I couldn't really move. It feels like I have to hold my breath for some reason."I'm so sorry for telling the truth," He uttered.My eyes shot wide open and my head just turned to face him.For a couple of seconds, our eyes locked up. He was
Sunny's POVMinutes after the incident in the storage room, mom and dad finally arrived home. I can't help but smile while watching my dad carefully assisting mom on the way to the Dinning area.We all gathered there to eat the food we prepared for dinner. Dad was sitting on the right part of the table where mom was located beside him. I was sitting beside mom and Parker was beside me. Tanner and Simon took the other side."Seems like we have some visitors today. Make yourselves comfortable here." My dad uttered which caused me to be shocked.Dad smiled, "Shall we eat?"I felt something forming around my eyelids but I tried hard not to cry at this point."Oh, I forgot. We should pray first. Sunny, lead the prayer." Dad told me so I nodded.I closed my eyes, "Thank you God for the plenty of food today. Thanks for taking care of mom and thank you for encouraging dad about me and Simon."The moment I
Sunny's POV"You know what, I felt bad for Cassandra," I mumbled as I took a chip from Parker's snacks. We were sitting in the back seat. Tanner was the one driving the car and of course, my brother Simon took the shotgun seat beside him.Dad told us to go home first and they would just follow. I'm glad that dad is finally accepting us. Not that easy for him though but I know he will get through it."She wants it so let her be. I already told her everything but she chose to hurt herself so I think it's not my problem anymore." Parker replied.We shared the food snack the whole ride until we arrived at home. Good thing, Simon and I have separate rooms so nothing to worry about since we brought someone with us tonight.I led the way towards my room, put my things aside, and turned the lights on. Sunny was behind me."You have a nice room, man." He commented."Thank you. Come in." I said to him.We w
Sunny's POVWe occupied the table outside the ice cream parlor shop. I waited for Parker since he was the one who took our order at the counter. When he comes back, he was holding two bowls of ice cream.He sat in front of me and gave me one of the bowls. It was a chocolate chip flavor ice cream. Lots of sprinkles and chocolate chips on the top. It looks delightful.I was about to taste it when Parker put ice cream on my nose."Hey!" I shouted and moved back."You looked like Rudolph the red nose reindeer." He commented and laughed out loud. His ice cream is a strawberry flavor that's why my nose got a touch of red.I dipped my finger on my ice cream and took my revenge. I hurriedly put some on his nose too.I stuck my tongue out and laughed.Our laughter took other people's attention. We didn't mind at all. I am just enjoying my time with Parker. He lifted the heaviness inside my chest. I'm glad
Sunny's POV We walked side by side. No one dares to speak. My mind was flying and differents thoughts crossing inside my head. One of them is Parker. I just met him and yet there was something I couldn't understand. It was something weird and I'm afraid to misinterpret his sweetness. I hate it but I am nearly falling for this guy. He's handsome and a very nice guy. This is not good. It's getting out of control and I'm not liking it. "Let's get inside. I'll introduce you to my mom, my brother, and his partner." I said the moment we reached the apartment we were staying in. I held Parker's hand and led the way. I just let go of him when we entered inside. As I expected, I saw all of them on the sofa while watching the television. Mom was so surprised that she even stood up and strode towards my spot. "What happened? What's with the bruises and who is this guy?" Mom asked as she reached me. "We got into trouble. So
Sunny's POV I'm glad that they invited me to dinner. Cassandra is here with us and she was sitting right next to Parker. I am beside Auntie Francia while Uncle Mark was sitting on the right part of the table. We all prayed and thanked God for the plenty of food today. "Let's eat." Uncle Mark uttered after praying. Parker was sitting right in front of me. I was surprised when he put a scoop of rice on my plate. "Try my mom's caldereta. You'll like it." He said and put some on my plate. "T-thanks," I said when I felt Cassandra stare at me. My bad. Why he's so hands-on with me? I can manage though. "It's been a while since Parker brought a friend here. I'm so happy to meet you, Sunny." Parker's mom broke the silence. "I am close to thinking that my son is an introvert. I'm glad you came." She added. "I was betrayed before and left on air that's why I'm afraid of making friends once a
Sunny's POVI woke up early and prepared for school. I heard the horn outside the house so it means Parker was already outside."Gotta go, mom," I told mom and kissed her cheek."Take care, honey." Mom said so I smiled.When I got out of the apartment, I saw Parker smiling at me."Good morning. Where's Cassandra?" I asked her when I noticed that Cassandra is not with him."Her class will start at 10. Good thing our class has the same time today. I forgot to ask you your time yesterday since we have different courses. My fault," He paused then chuckled. "Hop in. We should go."I nodded and went inside the shotgun seat with him. He started to drive away."Is this yours?" I asked him. He looked at me confusingly. "I mean, the car.""Yup. Dad gifted me this when I turned 21." He replied."I see. Tell me what is your age is?""I'm 23." He said, eyes on the road."Same," I ut
Sunny's POVWe met Simon at the town plaza and he was with his partner Tanner.He hugged me and mom upon seeing us. I could see the sadness in his eyes while looking at me."Your nose bled, Sunny. I could see the trace in it." He said and I saw how his fist balled in anger. "Did father hurt you? Tell me?"I just threw my sight away as I remembered how dad raised his hand just to hit my cheek by telling him that I am gay."He loathed gay, Simon." I just uttered and looked him back.A small smile bloomed out of his lips. "It's fine. Gay people don't like him as well so it was fair."I smiled when he tapped my shoulder. "Let's go to our apartment. The dinner I prepared would get cold."I nodded.We rode the red car that Tanner owned and went to their place to stay until everything went back to normal.The ride lasted for about 30 minutes or so. Good thing, the apartment they renting is
