My parents say that if I don't go back with them, they're cutting me off. They say that if 'this is what I am getting up to, I am clearly not taking my schooling seriously'. I take it beyond seriously! I'm an international student, so I pay fees. Not to mention that this apartment is expensive. I don't want to go back to Paris, but I honestly ( Read more... )

Oh for fuck's sake!

I am so sorry, Emilio. If there's anything I can do, say the word, okay?

You don't have to worry about money. I remember this part, although I had hoped it wouldn't happen to you. I can give you all the money you would be getting from your parents for schooling and whatever if they decide to cut you off. I gave in to my father, and I've always since regretted it.

I'm not offering this as a handout, but if you want another option, here it is.

Kait, I am not taking your money.

I don't want to see you have to go back to France, Emilio. Not like this.

I know, Kaitlyn. I don't want to either. That's why I'm looking in to things, okay?

God this is depressing.

Fuck man. This is the dumbest thing I have ever heard and I have said some of the dumb ones. I will ask the boss if I can work some more. I know I do not make a lot of money but I will help my part.

Do not give up yet. You are smart and I am muscular. We will be okay!

Jean...I'm sorry. I really am. I'm going to have to work more hours too. Or get a second job. There's a clinic that's hiring. Thank you for being so wonderful.

Hah! Well that's certainly true!

You do not need to apologise. Your parents should apologise! You are welcome to my wonderfulness. It is for my friends!

They should. They really should. I wish things were simple.

Oh, my darling... I'm so sorry. That's just awful. I can't believe your parents would do that. I've known them for so long... I could never imagine them being so heartless. Especially after all they did to help you be here for Pierre. This is just so stupid.

I know. I thought I made them proud. They say they want to be there for me. But apparently only under their terms. It's not right.

No, it's not right at all. This isn't their choice to make. They're being so irresponsible and... and cruel. It's so fucked up.

They once told me they would support me no matter what and I would never want for anything in their power to give me.

Huh.

Oh, no... dude... I'm so sorry. This is just fucked.

I'm glad you're not going to just lie down and give in. I think you can find a way to make this work. You haven't done anything wrong, and you shouldn't have to suffer. You shouldn't have to be persecuted by your family, of all people. Goddammit, this pisses me off so much!

If there's anything at all I can do, please never hesitate to come to me. You did an awesome thing by coming here. I would like for my friendship to be able to help with some sort of sanctuary.

It pisses you off because you're a parent. And a good one. And it should. I'm glad it does. Which probably sounds weird... Anyway...I don't want to go back there, and especially not if that is what I am going to have around me. I need support not...crazy people.

You friendship always is a sanctuary, Pierre.

I know what you mean, it doesn't sound weird to me. We are righteous in our anger. I would hate to see you go back to that, and you won't. We'll find a way to keep you both here. Unthinking bigotry is not something that will defeat us.
