I Am The Truth Novels & Stories

I am too fabulous to chase a man. That's a huge ironic statement for a sucker like me. I wonder where's Jericho. I bet he is home. "I am glad that everyone is here to celebrate with me. I am delighted to see some familiar faces too, coming from my relatives, investors, and business partners. Tonight, let us toast for this massive success! Cheers, Ladies and Gentlemen!" Getting bored with the ambiance, I decided to step back because I feel unsettled, so I excused myself to my mom and dad.

Kai responds, remorse evident in his voice. "I understand more than you think, Kai. I've been battling my own demons, feeling like a party of one. Self-loathing has become my constant companion. But I was afraid that this time apart would be the breaking point for you. That you would finally see the extent of my brokenness," I admit, my voice filled with apprehension. "Baby, nothing anyone says or does to us will ever diminish my love for you. I will cherish every single broken piece of you for as long as you allow me to... do you understand?" Kai reassures me, his words filled with unwavering love.

The camera zoomed in, and I took a deep breath, forcing myself to look calm despite the storm raging inside me. “Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Amethyst Amadeus, and today, I’m here to speak the truth,” I began, my voice cool but steady. "I’ve been silent long enough, but I can no longer stand by and let someone else control my narrative. The truth is, Alexa—who some of you know as my so-called ‘sister’—is the one who’s been manipulating and lying to all of you." The host blinked, clearly not expecting that to come out of my mouth. "Wait, are you saying...?"

I wish she would've just told me the truth. "Don't leak the screenshots." I pause. "And accept that bribe." *****

The question echoes, a mantra of uncertainty reverberating through my consciousness. Continuously, relentlessly. A realization dawns, one as illuminating as the brightest star. The truth unfurls—a realization woven into my very core. I am no one. A nameless wanderer, an enigma spun from cosmic threads, seeking purpose among the celestial tapestry.

I'm going to find out the truth. For both of us. *****

I ad done all of that. “Your truth is not something that you can trust,’’ my inner voice whispered at me. “The truth sets everyone free, it makes a better world, the truth is the future,’’ I fought back in my head as I contemplated wat I was about to say. “Cage “ “Perez “ We both blurted each other’s name at the same time.

"I deserve honesty, trust, and a love that isn't tainted by hidden agendas." Wiping away her tears, Ameera made a silent promise to herself. She would gather the strength to face the truth head-on and make a decision that would bring her the happiness and authenticity she craved. The journey ahead would be challenging, but she knew deep within that she couldn't compromise her own well-being any longer.

The last wish was for you, the very best you could have, a life you truly wanted, and not one trapped by me. I looked out at the endless horizon, feeling an overwhelming sense of calm. Henry, this time, I'm leaving on my own. Please don't miss me too much, okay?

With a truth I wasn’t sure I wanted to hear… What am I?
