Oh!

By Necromancer

Oh.
Oh?
...
Why not.
I guess that's acceptance is some weird way.
Oh?
That's nowhere near what i'd hope you'd have to say.
After all this time, all this life.
Oh...well isn't that something.
How does that help?
Are we good?
Or did you just decide i wasn't your son anymore?
Oh, was it something I said?
Do you think you failed or do you wish I was dead?
Why should i care what you even think?
Why should it matter who I let in my bed?
If it was a woman, you have some many questions.
But because its a man...nothing?
...
I'm still your son.
For what its worth.
After all these years i'm just finding my place on this earth.
You were the first I told.
You know what that means?
I trusted that you'd accept me for me.
Oh.
What does that mean?
Is it ok with you, that i'm batting for both teams?
Oh?
A response would be nice.
No matter what it is.
You'll still be my dad.
And I'll still be your kid.
