Own Decision

Regardless of being at the right age, parents often still have a say in the relationship of their children. Even if the child is an adult and provides financial stability to the family, as long as the relationship is thought as taboo, he/she will never hear the end of it.

Whenever Lovestruck Talent (LT) would send money to her parents, they would ask how she is doing. After all, LT is based in the city while the rest of the family lives far. LT would respond with short answers and give excuses such as needing to rush to go to work. Thus, LT’s parents trusted her answers. They understood that LT has many commitments and without them, she’ll lose work.

The day came when her folks and other relatives were shocked to read about LT and Her Man (HM). The parents were not aware LT’s relationship status until that moment. They could not get a direct answer from LT during their phone conversations. So, they asked Someone Close (SC) about LT’s life choices. SC revealed details about HM, and the parents were surprised. What hit them most was learning that LT spent a lot of time in the home of HM.

The behavior of LT was too much for the conservative folks. Allegedly, one had to be brought to the hospital due to an alarming blood pressure reading. When LT was informed of the incident, she replied that they should calm down and not treat her relationship as a big deal. She is, after all, in the city and living with a boyfriend is acceptable. When a parent attempted to answer, LT gave an uncalled-for reply. LT reminded them that as long as she sends money, they should not worry. Besides, she’s at an age where she can make sound decisions.

Incidentally, LT asked SC to go on vacation, as she could not stand the meddling and gossiping about her love life. Even blood relations no longer matter when secrets are revealed.
