Capítulo 16: Chapter 16: Do you even have a boyfriend?
"Heard you went on a business trip with your boss' daughter . I did not know you two were that close".. Lean's mother asked indirectly .
"we are close . we actually live in the same house ". Lean said calmly her eyes fixated
on her phone.
"Oh but what is a rich man's daughter doing in a rented flat ?".
"Mom are you judging Kiah ?" asked looking surprised.
" was about to ask the same thing ".Lean looked at her sister if they laughed lightly their mother was a typical church lady,she loved acting like a saint ,whenever she judged, lied and gossiped it left her children shocked the whole church respected her and her other church ladies were just like her.
" I'm not judging I'm just saying she belongs in a mansion".
" okay mom "Lean replied while looking at her sister.
" when are you getting married. Hellen is already expecting a grandchild in the next three months . Do you even have a boyfriend ?".
At the mention of the word boyfriend' Lean flinched her's was a different case she felt nothing for the other gender "mom we talked about this .I'm still focusing on my career"...
" nonsense you are 24 you are not getting any younger Mr Fenwick's son is back in town now. I'm sure you two can rekindle the fire of your broken relationship"
Lean felt defeated how are she going to tell her mother that she was never in love with Norman Fenwick she was pretending . She just did it because of the pressure her mom was giving her and she needed a plus one for her college graduation and Norman was the available option .
"I think Sunday you should come with me to church and you will see him or maybe find a better suitor "Catherine insisted and Lean knew she had to tag along next Sunday, this was the reason she did not like coming home . Her mother was a lot to handle she especially hated the marriage topic how was she ever going to tell her family that she was gay .
"I'm going to rest " she said making her way to her room when Catherine dropped another bomb on her "oh Lee darlin Vincent and his family are joining us for dinner don't worry me and your sister will cook you can rest .I told them you were in town "Lean could not utter a single word .
Her mother was no saint. She was cunning . She turned slamming her door when she got in her room falling face first on her bed ,her mother had to be cruella sister honestly.
_______________dinner time______________
Everyone on the dinner table seemed to be enjoying their meal but the tension between Lean and Vincent was so thick he knew a secret she has been hiding for years and lean knew his.
" Lean darling how's life in the big city?" Vincent's father asked sarcastically he never missed a chance to find some gossip .
"can't complain it's better than this side"Lean said giving him the opportunity to sprout nonsense .
"boys in the city ain't serious how will you get married ?".
"was also telling her the same thing!" Catherine joined in .
"Are no good men in the city?". the people kept quiet . "Thought as much I'll get married when I feel like it I'm not about to be a baby generating machine ".
"Yes that's good daughter focus on your career "Vincent's mother said looking at her with so much envy.
" nonsense women should not focus on work too much, they are meant to look after their husbands and the family" Vincent's father said now showing his true evil self .
"with all due respect Sir this ain't the 18th century ,is Jane married now ?" He had a daughter yet he wanted to act like a saint when he's own daughter he had after he married Vincent's mother a year later a 'bastard child' was a highly booked stripper in the city.
" Jane might be getting married soon actually" Mr Watson answered with beads of sweat on his forehead .
"that's nice I'll announce it on Sunday" Kiah said with a smirk they finally got this old man.
" no don't announce it yet "he said panicking.
" is it true she's a highly booked stripper and that's how she managed to buy you the convertible car ".Lean asked sarcastically.
"Umm no she's doing a decent job ,Catherine are you going for the fundraising event ?" he asked changing the topic Catherine looked bored ,she was enjoying the drama she wanted some fresh gossip to give to the ladies at the event.
" yes I'm going let's go and sit on the porch kids clear up the table".

"Our families are dramatic" Vincent said while standing behind Lean.
"you can see that again "she replied while laughing still focusing on here dishes .
"Heard you got a good job offer at the tech company "he said looking proud he has never been a jealous person .
"yeah I just got lucky how's your man Lean said the last part in a whisper then winked at Vincent. The tips of his ears flushed red as he blushed . He was a fine man ,light skin nice physique... but lean was still not interested in men .
"well I'm glowing as you can see .I miss him" he said looking all shy.
" I can't believe both of us turned out gay. Our parents are going to relocate running away from the town's gossip the day they find out "Lean said as they erupted with laughter .
"that would be the best day of my life. I will post a picture kissing my man ".
"boy you crazy, had missed you eyy "Lean said smiling at Vincent. The night had turned out fine, tomorrow she had to go back to the city.... back to her normal life she hoped no drama awaited her in the city.
