“It’s my turn. You know, I’ve thought a lot about what happened, and I’ll spare you the details about the anger, and the crying, and the weight loss, and the empty space on my wall where your picture used to be. ‘Cause I’ve decided that there’s no point in focusing on the negatives. I’d rather think about the good things that came from this. Like, you taught me a really valuable lesson. Just because I’m gay, people will hate me without knowing anything else about me. I always knew that was part of the deal. I just I never expected it from my own father. But now I know not to expect the best from anyone. So, thanks, I guess. Oh, and one more thing. I learned some really cool stuff about myself. Like I’m tough. I’m really tough. And when I do stumble, I have the most amazing mom who is always right there to pick me up. So whatever, dude. I’m moving on with my life. I’m gonna be fine. I’m just really bummed out for you. You’re gonna miss stuff. And that sucks. ‘Cause I’m pretty great.”
