Novel & Cerita Told A Lie

"I don't have anything to say, Olivia... I don't know what you are talking about but as far as I remember, I never lie to you. I told you everything unless it's work related and very confidential. Other than that, I don't remember not telling it to you." Lies. Lies. Lies. Binibigyan na nga ng pagkakataon, pagsisinungaling pa rin ang ginagawa! "Okay. Wala naman pala, eh. Sige, matutulog na tayo." Malamig kong sinabi at tumayo na, iniwan siyang nakaawang ang bibig sa kanyang kina-uupuan.

Pero sana nga, hindi naman siguro masamang hangarin na sana ay bata na lang din kung mag-isip ang lahat. “Because I lie to your daddy. Your daddy hate liars,” sagot ko sa kanila sa kabila ng pagkirot ng aking ngalangala. Hindi na talaga ito mawala-wala pa sa akin. Palagi na lang kumikirot ang ngalangala ko’t maya-maya’y papatak na lang ng walang paalam ang mga luha ko. Sa ngayon, pinipigilan ko ito dahil nasa harap ko ang mga bata. “Thus, you and Herald...” Tumingin ako kay Herald. “Don’t lie to him. Telling lie can hurt a person especially if he or she trust you,” pagtatapos ko.

Pero kita ko ‘yung ngiti niya — ‘yung tipong gusto mong burahin gamit ang folder sa mesa. “Yeah,” I managed to say, kahit nanginginig ‘yung boses ko. “I’m fine.” Fine. The biggest lie I’ve ever told. A few minutes later, halos lahat umalis na sa conference room. Si Adrian, awkward na nagpaalam. “I’ll fix this, okay? I’ll explain kay sir.” “Wag na,” sagot ko, mahinahon pero matalim. “Mas lalo lang lalaki ‘to.”

sa mahinang boses ay sinabi ko. “So Xander is telling the truth? You did plan it? Totoong sinadya mo siyang iligaw? Ho could you do that, Aira?” “No!” agad na tanggi ko. “Of course not! Hindi ako ganun kasamang tao para gawin ko iyon, Peter! Alam mo ‘yan!” “Then why would he accused you just like that?” “Ewan ko!” balik sigaw ko. “Maybe he sensed something wrong huh? Baka talagang nararamdaman niya na ayaw mo sa kanya kaya pilit mo siyang inaalis sa buhay niyo!”

“Mag-aapat na taon na pero wala kapa ring maalala.” “Ano ba ang nakalimutan ko? Ano ba ang nangyari sa akin?” “Isipin mong mabuti para matandaan mo.” “Paano ko gagawin iyon kung wala nga akong matandaan?” “I'll tell you the truth, but promise me one thing.” “Ano iyon?” “Don't kill him.” “Sino?" “Don't kill your fake husband.” “Bakit ko naman gagawin iyon?”

Madalas na hinahanap ni Alex ang Daddy nito sa kanya. Kahit naawa si Angela sa anak kapag laging binabanggit ang ama ay sinasabi nitong nasa malayong lugar lang ito at busy sa trabaho kaya hindi nila ito nakakasama. Hindi niya alam kung hanggang kailan niya paninindigan ang pagsisinungaling na iyon sa anak.

Ganu'n lang kabilis niya akong pinatawad and still, tinatanong niya pa rin ako tungkol sa nangyari and so i had to lie again. "Fine. Nagkaroon kasi ng health problem ang mommy. She's dying. Kinailangan ko syang dalhin sa Amerika para ipagamot." pagsisinungaling ko. tiyak din kasi na hahanapin niya si mommy kaya gumawa na lang ako ng kwento. "Hala? Totoo ba iyan? kumusta na siya ngayon?" "Unstable,"

How did I know that? Simple lang... Because I already mastered the act of pretending, and lying is like a game that I usually play. ****

she shouted. Denver let out a loud sigh and hardly closed his eyes to calm himself down. He always lied to her daughter about their situation but this time is different, everything is out of his control. So this time he's willing to tell her everything to understand their situation, “I..." But how??? He's scared, if he tells the truth can her daughter handle it? He hopes so... "I... Lie..." he really can't. There's something stopping him not to tell her and he doesn't know where to begin.

Natatawa pang pag-assure niya sa nobyo niya. Well, sa loob ng VIP room, yes. Of course, she won’t tell him what’s happening. The consequences of lying are not as simple as they might seem. People often think that lies breed contempt and guilt, but they do much more. However, lying is part of her and the easiest way to avoid direct conflicts.
