Work Text:
It is very hot. Really, Misha can feel sweat everywhere on his body. It is easy to understand because now he is in his motherland – Kazakhstan and there are heat every summer. The boy finally came there after he had been a whole year in Washington because of his studying abroad. He cannot say that he didn’t like it because there he has found the love of his life and now, he is in beautiful relationships with him but he was still missing his country and he came there to celebrate his birthday.
It was an important tradition to Mikhail celebrate his birthday with his family and no matter how far he or his family living from each other and every year he was happy spending his birthday like this but in this year… this year was different because as soon as he started dating with Ilia , he started to mean not only whole world for Misha but at the same time, Ilia started to be a family and Misha wanted to celebrate his important day with his lover too but it has been impossible because they decided to not to tell anyone about their relationship. Misha couldn’t say that they were hiding, no, totally not, they just wanted to save some privacy.
Mikhail had never thought about his orientation maybe because he has never fall in love with someone but when he met his first love, he could understand what was it.
Misha doesn’t know how his family will react when they will know that he has a boyfriend. He has never ever talked about his relationship and feelings with them because he was very shy every time when they tried talked with him in that way but, in his family, he could see only love between man and woman and no one has ever told him that different example can exist. He really doesn’t know what will he do if his family will not support his relationships but he hopes that they will.
When Misha moved to the USA, he started to want to come to Kazakhstan again on the first day and his wish was stronger and stronger when every day passed but when he met Ilia it was changed. Suddenly whole his life started to be only for his boyfriend and only with him Misha could feel alive. They have special dinners, cinema nights, supported hugs and a lot of, really Misha did not know such a large number, how much they kissed and he has never wanted to be apart from his lover but once they had a dialogue when they talked about some stuff and Ilia has asked about data of Mishas” birthday, it was in an April as far as the boy remembered. And after it with everyday which was passed Misha can feel more bitter in his soul. It was with him every time, he in his shifting – the bitter there, he was talking with customers – same way, he made orders – it also with him. The bitter was with him every goddamn second but he has never told anyone about it.
Once, even Ilia asked him about it
-What did I do wrong, Misha? – he is really shouting and Mikhail didn’t understand why.
-Nothing, sweetheart, really nothing – the boy smiled the softest smile as he can have – why can you thought about it?
- Because you are not there, mm your thoughts not there and you are so quiet, yeah, I know that you aren’t so talkative as I but still – Ilia paused – and while we walking you always have an angry face, so, why if you are not made of me? – Ilia waited for Mishas” honesty.
- Really?! I haven’t even understood that but the truth is I have some problems – Mikhail tried to speak calmy because his boyfriend is very empathic.
-Love, what are the problems? Please tell me, you know we can solve them together – Ilia sounds so scary totally like Misha thought his boyfriend was.
-God, sweetie – Mikhail burst of laughing – really nothing serious, you don’t need to be soo afraid
-Love, I am still waiting for your speech – Ilia said.
- Mmm, okay – Misha was paused – it isn’t a serious problem but before you I always celebrating my birthday in Kazakhstan and now I cannot – the boy shrugged.
-Why? – the fair-haired boy really couldn’t understand
-Because I want to be with you, but I don’t know how will my family react when the find out our relationship – Misha continued – but I also want to be with my family on that day.
-Yeah, it is really hard to chose -Ilia agreed- but you can go to your motherland and introduced me as your american-friend and calling with me there.
-Maybe you right but I have used to be honest with my family and I really bad in lying – Misha talked.
A month passed and now Misha was in his flat and his boyfriend was next to him and he was helping Misha to packed.
-So, how long will you be there – Ilia asked
-Not so long really only for 15 days or you have already started missing me? – Mikhail was bursting out laughing.
-Of course, hahah and really, two weeks apart it is too long – the fair-haired boy kissed his boyfriend softly.
They were fooling and laughing while packing the things and the atmosphere was full in love. Ilia has a bye hug with Misha and after it he was flew to Kazakhstan.
All the road to his motherland he was shaking like a leaf because he is going to tell everyone about their truly relationships with Ilia.
When Mikhail finally came there all of his family was an airport even his seventy-seven years old grandparents and his little nieces and everyone was literally crying while hugging with Misha.
After a long road on car, he is finally in his childhood home and his eyes really was hard to be open and Misha has just texted to his boyfriend that he came and suddenly fall asleep.
When the boy woke up, he was feeling very comfortable but one thing was still disturbing him it was his speech about his relationships.
When he down staired he could see whole members of his family on the breakfast and suddenly they noticed that he came and started talking in Kazakh.
-Oh, Misha dear woke up!
-Hi Misha
-Good morning, Misha!!
Misha smiled and seat next to a table.
-Good morning, everyone! I really enjoy be there!
One hours was passed they were still eating breakfast and talking and now Misha understood that he wanted to tell it right now.
-I am really sorry to disturbing you but I want to tell you about something – Misha started and everyone suddenly gave full attention to him.
-I have some news – Misha paused – I am in relationship…
And suddenly the room wasn’t be quiet anymore everyone started really shouted
-God, Misha it is really cool!!
-Oooh, now you are adult!!
-Dear, we sooo happy about this news!!
And of course, he has a lot of questions which threw him off soul balance
-Who are she?
-She is American?
-How she looks like?
And more and more questions about her not him.
-Mmm – Misha paused – it isn’t a she, it is a he.
The room started to be peaceful for a second but after it a granny said
-I hope that you cook to him our traditional beshbarmak – with a smiled she said
-No, there wasn’t any horse meat there at all – Misha a little bit laughed
- Why he didn’t come him with you? - his mom said
-Because I didn’t know how you will react – Mikhail admitted
-You think we are evils who don’t want that you be happy? – his dad said with a smile
This conversation lasted for one hour or more and Misha talked about his boyfriend everything and as he can remember, now everyone truly in love with Ilia as a Misha (but he is still more hahahah). Actually, the boy couldn’t even dream about so nice reaction of this news but it is what it is and he was very happy about this.
After family conversation, Mikhail has written a message to Ilia that everyone knew about them and really okay about that.
In one day, Ilia has a video call with Mishas” family and they really talked for hours and after it, Misha could say only one thing he wasn’t a number one in this family but he absolutely didn’t upset with this because now number one is his pretty boyfriend.
And after this family conversation, Misha has got one message from his lover
« Now you need to get to know my family too. »
The end.
