We Were Liars Novels & Stories

Social media had already made up its mind. Everybody has already given us names that they think suit us well. Fraud. Manipulators. Power play. Lucky parents. The power of money. A viral clip looped again and again. I sighed. I don’t know what’s viral anymore. Diego and my interview with Liam where everyone watched Liam and the principal sharing their side story live or the clip of the principal lying on the hospital bed tied in bandages or Mendoza and Ricardo’s blaming us for staging this whole damn thing.

She seemed a charming girl.” “She’s a liar,” I said. “She manipulates people.” “And she has no moral compass,” Eamon added. “She lied to us for years and never repented until we found out the truth on our own. It was all tears and begging after that.” “Crocodile tears,” I said. “Yes,” Eamon agreed. “Be that as it may, you have not provided enough evidence for us to consider Lilia’s expulsion. You want us to is not a good enough reason.”
