Do Chi's POV

   I'm walking up to the meeting spot.  I sit down in a chair across from my mom.  There's awkward silence, no one wanting to speak first as we look at each other.

"Do."  She says after awhile, finally deciding to break the silence.  Whew.  I'm just glad it didn't have to be me.

"Mom."  I nervously respond.  I can't really read her face.  I don't know what she's feeling.  Is she mad?  Is she sad?  Is she disappointed?  Is she faking me out and she's actually supportive?  Guess we'll find out.

"How could you?  How could you have a relationship with your stepsister and get engaged to her?  We didn't get married for you two to."

"It just........it just happened.  Mom, I really love Jasmin.  She's my better half, and I want us to have what you have."

"I'm sorry, Do, but I don't support it.  It's so wrong on so many levels.  You guys are sisters."

"Stepsisters.  We're stepsisters.  We're not biologically related, therefore it's perfectly fine.  Now, I see if we were actual sisters.  That would be incest, but we didn't come from the same vagina or the same pair of balls.  Wouldn't that be worse?  At least it's not that.  That would be weird, mackin' on my actual sister."

"I just can't support it, Do."  "You're taking this way better than Diana."  "I don't know what Jasmin's gonna do.  She's 'bout ready to kill her."

She takes my hand, examining my engagement ring.  "So this is for real, huh?"  She says, still looking at the ring.

"As real as my love for Jasmin,"  She covers her face with her hands, leaning back in her seat.  "Mom, do you think you could ever support us?"

She folds her arms onto the table, looking me in my eyes.  She sighs.  "No, Do.  I don't think I can."

"Are you mad?  Do you hate me now?"  "I'm mad.  I'm disappointed.  A bit disgusted.  But I don't hate you.   I still love you, and always will.  I'm not gonna disown you over this.  Well, I have to get back to Diana."

And with that, she walks away.
