Sorry Mum, I'm a Lesbian

1. Prologue

 

I’m going to keep this short.

My name is Harmony Stevenson and I’m 14 years old. I have two sisters: Verity is 16 and Isla is 12. I have a Mum, Corrine, and a Dad, Declan.

That is the simple part.

My family are Roman Catholic in a Church of England society. It takes 20 minutes in the car to get to church, and me and my sisters have all gained the nickname of ‘Virgin Mary’. What a coincidence. Although I am not a true OTT Catholic, unfortunately my parents are.

 

My life is complicated enough anyway, but one year ago it got even more complicated.

 

Last year I discovered I was a lesbian.
