“Are you serious?” I forced myself to meet her eyes. “It’s not you.” “That’s exactly what people say when it is.” “No, Clair, I swear.” She folded her arms. “Then what is it?” And there it was. The moment. The place where the truth could have come out in some broken, partial form if I’d been a braver person. Instead I lied. Not smoothly, just fast. “I’m stressed,” I said. “Okay? About school. University. My parents.”

he murmured. "It doesn't matter!” I snapped as tears blurred my vision, "I lied… I lied to them and I... I told them I was like them, they found out I wasn't. They were angry." “And?" He said, expression blank. “And that was my fault!" Silence fell once more, “What if their parents finds out? What if it spirals further? This is no longer about me,” I continued desperately, my chest tightening. "It's about my family,” I whispered and he stilled.

I replied her "My place will do, hope you don't mind" she queried me "No, not at all, but tonight wouldn't be possible I have family gatherings" I lied to her Lying isn't my thing but I guess I have to, I wouldn't want to just say I wouldn't be able to make it tonight "Okay, I understand you, tomorrow night I guess" she asked me "Yeah, tomorrow night, bye" I told her I hanged up on her devouring what's left in my cereal

I accused, stepping back. “I do. I lied when I said I just wanted you for a free fuck. I lied when I said you were just one of my women. I lied when I said you weren’t special. I lied when I said… to myself that you were just a secretary to me,” he uttered in one breath, almost bursting. “I lied about damn near everything. But when I say I’m telling the truth right now—I mean it," he added, confiding with his words.

Lies again. I'm such a liar.

Recall when I said I could handle it? I lied.

I had been desperate to earn enough money for Eva's treatment, but that had simply become a weakness they used to control me. Of course, they would throw all the dirty work at me, while promotions and raises had nothing to do with me. All this illness that plagued me was what I deserved. Suddenly, I heard soft footsteps approaching me. I turned and saw my intern, Sam. I had always thought he was kind and had real potential. Now… I was no longer sure. Even he had lied to me. It was my own fault for being blind and mistaking all the malevolent people for decent people. Without what happened today, I never would have seen their true colors.
