Bab 49: The Curfew

When Cole's same-sex relationship with his best friend was discovered, the family responded with a severity that echoed through his corridors of time.

Especially his mom.

Cole found himself at the center of interventions, enduring a series of attempts to "cure" what his family perceived as a deviation from societal norms.

The weight of numerous doctor visits, each aimed at altering the very essence of Cole's identity, hung over him as a haunting chapter in his personal history. These measures, fueled by societal expectations and ingrained prejudices, relentlessly sought to mold Cole into a more conventional form.

The pivotal moment in this narrative unfolded when Cole embarked on a relationship with Emma. In the eyes of his family, this newfound connection became a potential remedy, a supposed cure that validated their misguided belief in changing the fundamental core of Cole.
