After the girls had gone, Kyle sat at the table, thinking. TJ walked into the kitchen. "Hey, TJ, you got a minute?"
TJ turned from his requests of the refrigerator and turned to Kyle. "Yeah, sure."
Kyle was having trouble wording what was on his mind. "I made a mistake."
TJ looked a little confused. "What kind of mistake?" he questioned.
"Um, well, I made the mistake of making Antonia think I like her."
TJ gave a blank look. "Did you kiss her?"
"Yes."
"And you don't like her? Why are you telling me this?" TJ thought his brother was acting weird.
"Because if I were to tell anyone else this they would hold it over my head and when you make promises you'll keep them, at least to me, you will. So how can I tell her?"
"Tell her what?" TJ looked at him again.
"I'm gay!" Kyle said, then wishing he hadn't because his other brothers might have heard.
"Um, well, um, you're on your own!" TJ darted out of the room.
