Pride Week Day 5

Let's go with self love/self discovery

Title: The journey to myself

Summary: The night before the wedding Carlos stays with his parents and a lot of memories come back

The night before the wedding, Carlos spent the night at his parents' house. They wanted to do things right, according to tradition and therefore, they could not see each other before the ceremony, that could bring bad luck.

TK stayed at his father's house, Owen had insisted on having him around to help him prepare for whatever was needed, which meant that his father wanted to have everything under control.

As a first responder, Owen had seen everything happen at weddings and he certainly wasn't going to let anyone or anything spoil his boys' wedding.

Carlos: He hasn't gotten on your nerves yet?

TK: He's calmer than I expected. He's made about fifteen phone calls, but that keeps him entertained.

Carlos: I miss you, do we really not want to break tradition? My parents would love to have you here.

TK: I wouldn't dream of pushing my luck. Remember who you are marrying, Carlos.

Carlos: You mean Mr. Danger Magnet? You're right, let's not play with fate, next year I want to remember our wedding and know that nothing weird happened. Get some rest, we have an intense day ahead of us tomorrow.

TK: You too, babe. I love you.

Carlos. And I love you, tiger. Always. See you tomorrow.

Carlos put the phone down on the table and looked at the three boxes in front of him. It had been so long since he had looked through the things he had left behind when he had left his parents' house to move to the city.

That was part of another life, so far away now when he thought about it. His soccer team jerseys. He had never really liked it, but the deal he had made with his mother had allowed him to be on the Judo team at the same time. His mother kept all the belts and medals as well.

He smiled when he saw his picture from the first championship. His father had not wanted to go but there she was taking the pictures. He had finished last, but she had taken him out for ice cream to celebrate his effort.

There were also his grades from the different years and his graduation photos. There were a few movie tickets; he took the first two tickets and his smile widened.

His first date with a boy. The nerves had been terrible. Keeping his parents from finding out, going to the mall. Will, his first special friend. He'd never wanted his to call him boyfriend and Carlos thought it was wrong, but he'd accepted it.

It was unbelievable that his mother kept all those things. At seventeen he had come out of the closet and dared to tell his parents he was gay and things hadn't been easy with them.

But there they all were, even the letters he had written to his mother. He was sure they hadn't even read them, because they hadn't told him about them. But now he held them in his hand, crumpled, with some coffee stains, and he could almost imagine his father sitting in front of the fireplace, reading them over and over again, wanting to say something to him, to ask him so many questions.

But he hadn't, perhaps out of fear, not knowing what to say to his son or how to react to what his son might say to him.

He had felt alone during those years. For a long time he had wondered if it wouldn't have been better not to say anything, to keep his secret until it was time, until he found someone worth taking the big step for at last.

He looked down at his hands and was caressing the engagement ring TK had bought her. He hadn't taken it off since and would only do so when he put on his wedding ring.

TK would always have been the reason for taking the plunge.

"Would you like some warm milk and cookies?"

We are WORTHY

アジア人へのヘイトクライムのアメリカでの抗議集会の映像でこの言葉を聞きました。

ワンイシューではなく、ファストフード労働者による fightfor15$の運動(日本ではAQUITASなどによる「最低賃金1500円」の動きに当たると思う)などでも「We are worth more」というスローガンが掲げられたことがあり、現地のデモの写真で見たプラカードのフレーズになっていて、自分も勇気付けられました。

自己肯定感が下がりがちな今、どうしても自分に自信が持てなくて苦しいことが多くあります。

この絵を描くまでもそういう感じで、無力すぎてどうして生きているのかわからなくなってしまったり。

何かのタイミングで、ふと我に帰るわけですが。

今月はプライドウィークもあるってことで、いろんな人のことを思い出しながら、誰でもない誰かを沢山絵の中に描きました。

いつかこれ大きなサイズで描きたいなと思っています。

気に入った絵は、必要としてくれる色んな人とシェアしたいです。
