IT’S NORMAL TO BE UGLY, BUT I HAVE FEELINGS.

– Enter Benjamin?

– Yes sir, excuse me sir.

– Benjamin, we are not in the company, you can call me Oliver.

– Yes, Oliver.

– Tell me where you live?

– It’s not far, you can continue talking.

Oliver left with the car, he was so charming, the wind was blowing through his hair, and I looked enchanted, the ride was so quick that in less than 30 minutes I could see my humble house, but I worried when I saw my father standing still At the door, he always waited for me, and if he saw me arriving in a fancy car he would kill me, before I got close to the door of my house, I said.

– Ah Oliver, you can leave me here, here is good.

– But tell me where your house is, I’ll drop you off at the door Benjamin, no problem, is it close?

– Yes boss, my house is over there, you can stop here.

I was shaking, my father couldn’t see me, it would be too embarrassing, but since my father had eagle eyes, unfortunately he saw me.

-Benjamin? Son !

– Oh Daddy.

– This is where you live, who is that man who is calling you?

Very embarrassed, my glasses almost falling off. Benjamin looked at his father smiling.

– Yes Oliver, I live here and that’s my father, thank you very much.

– Benjamin Leroy, who is this man? Where were you ?

– Oh my god, what a shame.

Suddenly, Benjamin’s father walked towards Oliver’s car and opened the car door, looking nervously at his son.

“I was nervous and scared of Oliver seeing my father’s red eyes, control yourself dad, my boss can’t realize that we are vampires. ”

– Hi daddy, please calm down, I’m already leaving.

– Who is that bag of blood?

-Ah, what did he say?

-Nothing, boss. “Daddy, please” – Benjamin asked his father in thought.

Oliver got out of the car a little surprised, but he approached Benjamin’s father.

– Good evening, I’m Oliver, I’m your son’s boss, nice to meet you.

Oliver all smiles, took off his glasses and held out his hand to Benjamin’s father.

– Nice to meet you, Mr. Oliver, I’m Anthony, Benjamin’s father, at your disposal.

– Nice to meet you, I have to congratulate you Mr. Leroy, your son is an excellent secretary of finance.

Benjamin’s father smiled proudly and said.

– He took after me, I’ve been an economist for about 40 years, he inherited all my intelligence.

Benjamin smiled with a lot of embarrassment looking at Oliver and his father.

– Well Benjamin is delivered, now I’m leaving, good evening Mr Leroy, it was a pleasure to meet you.

– But it’s early, come in for a coffee.

– I thank you, but let’s leave it for another day, I’m going to my parents’ house from here, they live nearby.

– Yes dad, he needs to go, good night Mr. Oliver, until Monday and thank you very much.

– Okay Oliver, I expect a visit from you. Goodnight.

Benjamin pulled his father’s arm for the two to enter, and Benjamin waved to Oliver who got into the car and left.

– Son, your boss is very nice, invite him one day to have dinner here.

– Yes daddy, let’s go inside.

At the dinner table.

Benjamin with his parents and they had dinner quietly, when Benjamin looked at his mother and said.

-Daddy, I wanted to ask you something.

– Yes son, say.

– I want to go out tomorrow with Ron and his friends, he invited me.

-No way, you won’t go out with that delinquent.

– But daddy, please, mommy, you promised me that you had spoken to daddy.

– She said, and I said no Benjamin, you’re not going out with Ron and that’s it.

– Dad, I can’t take it anymore, I need to go out, I’m already 30 years old and I want to see people, go out dancing like a normal man my age, you don’t understand, that I’m no longer a child. Do you want me to remain an old virgin?

– You’re a good man Benjamin, and you don’t need to hang around, especially with Ron, he’s a bad influence, I don’t want to see my only son arriving drunk and drugged, the answer is no.

– I hate you Daddy!

Benjamin slammed the table as hard as he could and left crying.

– Benjamin, come back here son – shouted the mother.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

– Husband, you can no longer protect our son in your wing, he is already a grown man, how will he know love if you keep him here.

Benjamin’s mother left nervously leaving Benjamin’s father alone in the kitchen and went to his room, finding him lying on the bed crying.

– My love, forgive your father, he only wants your good, don’t get mad at him.

– How can I not stay mom, it’s always been like this, I could never leave the house, have friends, I spent my whole life just studying like crazy, I also wanted to live like a normal guy, go out drinking, date, but dad never Leave it, mom, it’s hard for you to be mocked by your colleagues and hear from them that I was daddy’s boy.

-Benjamin, my love, he did this because he didn’t want to see you suffer.

– No mom, dad actually doesn’t accept it, he never accepted that I’m gay, that I like men, he preferred that I stick to books, mom I need to be a normal person, I don’t even kiss.

– My son, don’t be like that, your father adore you he accepts you as you are, he just doesn’t want you to get hurt, it has nothing to do with your sexuality, my love, forgive your father.

– I don’t feel it mom, and I don’t want to know, I’m leaving tomorrow, I don’t need to ask him for permission, I’m already an adult man who works.

Benjamin’s father was listening to everything behind the door, and he appeared at the door and said.

– Benjamin, I’m proud of you, and I’m not ashamed of you for being what you are, I only protected you so you wouldn’t suffer, because there are a lot of bad people in this world, you can go with them tomorrow, but I just ask you to be careful, I couldn’t bear to relive what happened to you when you were 16. I couldn’t take it.

Benjamin aged 16.

– Mom, how am I, am I beautiful?

Benjamin got ready for the school dance, his mother fixed the hair that was licked, and he used a donkey brake device, he couldn’t take it off, but Benjamin was happy because the boy he loved had asked him to the dance, and at 8 o’clock I would pass by his house to pick him up.

– Mom, help me fix my tie.

– Calm down my love, you are beautiful.

– What time is your friend going to spend?

– Dad, he agreed on 8 eight, he’ll be here in a little while.

– At midnight I want you back.

– It’s okay daddy.

Benjamin was ready, he looked at himself for the last time in the mirror and felt good, he wore a purple velvet suit, with a green tie, his mother who had helped him in choosing the outfit. He felt sexy and confident.

He waited looking out the window anxiously. Until it was 8 o’clock, he went out the door and waited, when near the square that was next to his house, he sees a car approaching, and Benjamin looks and sees the boy he liked, getting up and waving at him .

– Mom, he arrived, he arrived!

The boy passed very slowly in front of Benjamin’s house and shouted his name.

– Look at the queer waiting, faggot.

And the boy throws a bag full of rotten eggs over Benjamin’s head, hitting him squarely, next to the boy was a girl, and the two laughed at Benjamin, all dirty with rotten eggs and flour.

Benjamin stood still and fell to the ground crying.

After that tragedy, Benjamin didn’t want to leave the house anymore, he barely ate, he just cried, Benjamin’s father went to his son’s room every night, he stayed at the door watching his son suffer, crying, hugging his mother and talking to her.

– Mom, I will never be loved, because I’m ugly.

That hurt Benjamin’s father’s heart, after that day, Benjamin was isolated from everyone.
