Weekly Contest #372
I stared in horror at the boxes that I had to move in the empty bedroom that was supposedly mine. I felt so lost in an unfamiliar place that I had to live in for possibly the rest of my life.

I was proud of myself for saving up money so I could move out of my parent’s house. I was proud that I had a stable income. When my parents kicked me out of their home after I came out as a lesbian, I was ready. The move was not immediate; I still had a couple of days. They thought I wouldn’t make it on my own.
