Kit Cahill's Short Story

278 Words2 Pages

Kit Cahill had everything going for him. He’d moved out of his small town and moved to Atlanta after high school. He’d even landed a job working for the premier hair salon, Tony’s. Life had been great. It was surprising just how quickly all of that could be ripped from his grasp. In just a few short years he went from flying high to living in his childhood home. Hating life he stuffs his feelings down with food.
Angelo Brunetti envied the many gay men in Cedar Falls who embraced who they were instead of living a lie. Owning a construction company had him working close with rough men, who may not take his orientation well. He might prefer to not have to hide who he was, but Angelo didn’t see any reason to come out of the proverbial closet.
