8, oh no

Fearing the eventuality that his son would not create him a genetic heir. which he started to fear after years of his son not showing interest in women and not bringing any home while hitting several gay flags. Though the father was okay with his son being gay, trans or anything else, he still had an immense desire to see his son have a child. As such, faced by the will of a genie that appeared mysteriously and gave him the power to grant a wish, the fathers first thought was, "what father wouldn't spend their wish for their son".

The fate that befell the two was for the son to never find himself a partner, getting a home in the same neighbourhood as his parents that kept them close until the son took his life after his mother passed due to his repressed desires causing depression and resentment. Things would be different though, as in the new world-
