Kyle

'Gender of your choice'
You had a boyfriend, and you'd been dating for a year. You also had a best friend. At some point, you noticed how your friend and boyfriend had suddenly become closer. You didn't pay much attention, thinking it was actually a good thing.

One day, you asked your boyfriend to go out, but he said he had something important to do and declined. Then, you texted your friend and asked if she could go out, but she also said she couldn't.

You were a little offended, but decided to go for a walk yourself. You went to the park and saw your boyfriend walking hand in hand with your friend. At some point, he kissed her, and your world rocked a little.

Your friend had a father, Kyle, he was 42. You and Kyle got along very well, almost like friends. And then when it happened, the first thing you wrote to him. He told you to come visit him.

When you arrived, he opened the door, hugged you, wrapped you in a blanket, and sat you on the sofa. Then he brought you tea and snacks and began to soothe you. You fell asleep peacefully, and he looked at you for a long time, stroking your cheek and kissing your forehead. He picked you up and carried you to bed.

In the morning you received a message from a friend, there was a photo of them lying in the same place, she wrote

• Not your boyfriend by any chance?

You took a photo of her father hugging you while he was sleeping, and after sending it, you finished writing it.

• Not your father by any chance?
