Everything Is Perfect When You Re A Liar 소설 & 이야기

The video had barely started playing when my screams filled the courtroom. As the screen slowly came into focus, everyone saw it clearly. Claire stood up and stabbed me again and again with a long needle. People in the courtroom rubbed their eyes at the same time. Someone gasped, "Wasn't she supposed to be paralyzed from the waist down?" "So she had been faking it this whole time?" "This has to be AI-generated, right?" "No way. If the court approved it as evidence, it has to be real!"

As if determined to tear away the last of the pretense, I reached out to touch that red mark. But Trey suddenly stepped back and instinctively tugged his collar up higher. "I got scratched by a branch on the way back," he said calmly, then pressed his lips tight. I lowered my gaze and dug my nails deep into my palms, using the sharp sting to push back the burning in my eyes. When Trey lied, the corners of his mouth would tighten ever so slightly. It was a habit he hadn't even realized he had. He was lying to me. "Is it serious? Want me to dress it for you?" I asked.

Big mistake. So, her little request didn't shock me. Of course, she wasn't letting go of her schemes. Even after I'd made it crystal clear we were done, she just kept pushing. Honestly, this was on me—I'd handed her a first-class ticket to Easy Street without making her earn it. I said, dripping sarcasm, "Wow, the love between you two is just so pure and unbreakable. Honestly, I'm ashamed that something as materialistic as this apartment could ever stain it."

Lies wrapped in the appearance of truth. Marcus entered quietly, setting down a cup of coffee that steamed in the cold air. “You won’t find her here,” Marcus said softly. “Not the way they’ve painted her. These records… they’re too clean. Too perfect. Which means they’re fake.” Damian’s eyes narrowed, a cold gleam sparking in them. “Then I’ll find the cracks. Every lie leaves a shadow. And when I do, they’ll regret ever touching her name.”

“Honestly? Yeah, it does. Because for once, you’re not the center of attention. For once, everyone sees what a lying, cheating mess you really are. Enjoy your empty bed and your ruined reputation, sweetheart. It suits you.” I stared at the ceiling, feeling numb, hollowed out. I wanted to scream, to claw the truth into everyone’s faces. But no one would listen. No one ever did. Lacie bent close, her voice a whisper only I could hear. “You know, they say karma’s a bitch. But today? She’s got nothing on me.”

It was Shade's and I noticed that her lips were coated in green lipstick, just like her eyes and her name, shades of green. "My Shade." She croaked out before she pressed the phone to her chest and I shook my head. I repeat this girl is going mad. She removed the phone from her chest and slide it to the next picture. "This Tolani's lips can't be natural. It's too beautiful and perfect." Sophia scoffed, her lips twisting up as if in disgust. "Well, that's the only good thing about her." My mouth dropped open. "Haba na. Sophia. How can you say that about someone's child? O wrong now."

"Why did it have to be him, of all people? I don't even know why I'm here! Drinking away my sorrows just to forget about him. It's not as if he's that handsome. I mean, Jade has such a nasty temper, and I hate what he does sometimes. Do I even deserve this?!" "It's always like that, bestie. Sometimes, we don't get what we want from life. See, most of us aren't perfect my dear. We just have to make the best out of people even if we think their wrong for us, sometimes. Make Jade a perfect gentle man, Fire. I notice his best whenever he's with you. Have you seen the spark in his eyes, recently? That's the charm you've given to him. I've also noticed the same joy in you of resent. I don't know i

Nagkibit siya ng balikat ang nag-iwas ng tingin. I pursed my lips before I spoke. "How I wish, it didn't came this far." "This is better, Elie than to leave in lies. We all played with lies and finally, the time has come." He muttered and looked at me seriously. "It's so hard to live in lies, everyday Elie and I couldn't even tell it to you." He added and his tears fell.

The loud muttering from the confused souls that had been set free from the chain of control they were in. "You were all under someone's hypnosis. You possibly know about the liar gas but our help was needed to keep it going. "What?!" A scientist from in front of us said. "But that makes no sense." They were back! I squealed in delight. I almost dropped Grace from the burst of excitement. It was unbelievable news. "We need to attack before he slips away." Lolita continued to render. All I could think of at the moment was how the world was back to its place. I needed to know what it was like, to leave these walls and live the lying life freely.

It made me feel lonely when I realized it. “Hey, you are okay?” Kola looked at me worriedly and my heart skipped a beat at his caring action. Stupid organ, he does this for everybody. I tried to tell myself but it still didn’t change the fact that my crush for him couldn’t be reasoned with. “Super Duper.” I replied but he chuckled. “You need to learn how to lie better my dear, you suck at it.” When I frowned at him, he raised his hands in defense, “I’m sorry but it is the truth”
