6:37 AM

It's been a tough night, I kept waking up every thirty minutes and couldn't clear my mind. Billie is leaving tomorrow and honestly, I would be so upset if she left without saying goodbye.

I got up and went to bathroom to take a quick shower and brush my teeth. After drying my hair I walked to my closet to pick an outfit for the day and remembered how Billie would pick them for me. I sighed loudly and got dressed.

I went downstairs and saw grandma flipping pancakes on the stove.

- Buenas dias abuela.- I said while walking to her and kissed her cheek.
- Oh, buenas dias mija. Come sit, I made pancakes.

I smiled and served the table quickly and sat. Grandma walked to the table with a plate full of pancakes.

- There you go honey.
- Thank you grandma, smells so good.

We started eating and after few minutes of silence grandma said:

- Where's Billie? I thought you were spending time together before she leaves. Isn't she leaving tomorrow? - My face changed when I heard grandma ask about Billie but I tried to keep it cool. I panicked and didn't know what to say.

- Oh yes, she's um-, she has a-. - I kept stuttering and eventually gave up and sighed loudly. - You see grandma, we had some kind of an argument yesterday.

- What argument?- Grandma asked me.

- Okay, let's start here. I don't know how you are going to react to this but I have feelings for her. - I said and kept looking at my hands under the table, I was so nervous because I didn't tell anyone about my sexuality and I'm scared grandma will get an heart attack. But she just laughed quietly and said:

- I know honey.

I lifted my head immediately and looked at her.

- What? It's obvious. You both look at each other the way we did with your abuelo.- She sighed quietly and looked at her ring that grandpa gifted her before passing away. Then she looked at me quickly and said:

- Don't worry about it mi amor, you can love anyone you want. You have feelings towards a girl and that's totally normal, I mean it happened to me too. - She said the last part quietly. I choked on my pancakes and said:

- Huh?- Grandma just laughed.

- So why did you argue?
