An Honest Lie Novels & Stories

She turned back and walked towards Kyle, she looked at him before looking at me, with a glare "No one will ever love you, you will never get a man as good as Kyle. You are pathetic Tara, sorry to say but no one likes a girl who keeps secrets from her boyfriend." Damn, she always gets me, I hate the fact she always gets to my head. She turned back and was about to leave when I stop her, I walked towards her and stood right in front of her, staring into her eyes "For your kind information Maria, you are the pathetic one, not me, if I remember clearly, Kyle didn’t cheat on me, actually, we were playing each other." I said before I looked at Kyle. It hurts me to lie but I have no other choice, I

Upon giving it some thought, Julian agreed with Quinn. He said, “Being honest with the person you love is crucial. Thank you, Ms. Crawford. I’ll talk to my friend and tell him not to keep a secret anymore.” Quinn smiled. “You don’t have to thank me. I was just sharing my thoughts. Everyone has differing opinions. There may be people who think lying is acceptable. Some of them are used to living in a lie. “You can talk to your friend. If he doesn’t accept your suggestion, you don’t have to continue persuading him. You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.”

he said. Two words, flat and certain and deliberate, and I looked at him for a long moment because it was the first lie he had told me. Not a big elaborate one, just a small quiet one placed carefully in the space where the truth should have been, and because he had been honest about everything else up until this moment the lie was loud, ringing in the room like something dropped on a hard floor. She was someone. Something significant enough and painful enough that he was willing to use a word like no one to cover it, to bury it under the flattest word he could find.

“I’m not lying. Mom, believe me. I didn’t push Sunny.” “Then did Sunny push you? How does it feel to be falsely accused?” Angela looked at Dolly and cupped her face, not letting her turn away. “People who lie are foolish. They always think others can’t tell, but the truth is, everyone sees through it already. “It’s like everyone is looking at something white, and you insist it’s black—it’s that obvious. Don’t lie again, alright? It really makes people dislike you.” Dolly clenched her teeth, her face flushing red.

"I just could not find the right words to say that to Efron... besides I don't think he would accept it if I rejected him!" Tristan sighed and frowned. "Damn, there is no right word to say that you don't like the person. The truth may hurt for a little while, but a lie hurts forever. Telling the truth and making someone cry is better than telling a lie and making someone smile. Three things cannot be long hidden: the Sun, the Moon, and the Truth, that's a quote!" "Well, I will tell him that some other time... right now, let's have some drinks!"

I swallowed hard. Do I tell him the truth, or do I leave somethings out? “Don’t even think of feeding me lies little Harold because there is nothing, I hate more in this world than being fed lies. Trust me, you don’t want to feed me lies when the only person who could have protected you from me when I find out that you fed me lies, has his head rotting at our gates.”

Nikolai “Hope, oh my gosh, we missed you!” “Yeah, girl. Where have you been?” “Just…here and there.” I can hear the hesitation on her voice as she lied to her friends. She hated lying, even with the smallest things. I told her that I told her friends she went on a vacation. If it were me I would have said I had gone on a tour in Europe to search for myself, made up stories along the way. Say anything necessary to make my false story more believable. But Hope isn’t a liar like me. Giving a vague answer is the most she could do. In the end, it’s all up to interpretation.

she spoke in so much detail, even she herself almost believed what she was saying. Why in the world did she have to come up with these lies, anyway? Lying was bad, but she could not come up with a sufficiently plausible explanation that could dispel Mandy's doubts. Lies made in good faith were still lies in fact, but at least they could clear up misunderstandings and prevent unnecessary trouble. Anyway, she had a clear conscience—she and ice guy were innocent. The only person that would be happy over Hazel 's and Mandy's broken friendship would be Leila.

As quickly as peace settled within me, my phone screamed. "What now!" I grimaced, flinging my legs back to the ground as I reached for the device. One swipe at it, and I went visibly sick. The S logo behind the hidden notification told who it was from. I opened it and read. "The wise Robert Brault once said, Every lie is two lies, the lie we tell others and the lie we tell ourselves to justify it. Honesty is the bedrock of any relationship. Trust is the foundation on which everything is built. Those two traits go hand in hand to ensure a successful relationship. However, every relationship is bound to fall apart when you start keeping things to yourself. Do better today. Be honest with your

I needed to give her the perfect answer to this question. I had to tell her something that wasn’t so over the top, something that would help sell our ruse, something that was quite close to the truth, because hey… I’d heard that the best lies did have shards of the truth hidden in them after all, and so clearing my throat nervously, I let a small smile grace my face, “Honestly speaking, Ma’am… even I can’t say for sure, because Adonis is hands down the most infuriating man I’ve ever met, but for as long as I’ve known him, it’s his warm heart that had always drawn me to him. He’s just so selfless invested in his worker’s lives that he had always held my highest admiration. I guess when it com
