I think we just barely made it to class on time! As I was saying, my phone has the newest games and technologies on it. It's so cool and it cost my parents a fortune. It's also deep blue, it's such a nice color!
Oh, that's a bit complicated. I'm letting my cousin keep it for a few days because he really liked it.
You have to show it to us tomorrow!
Your phone sounds so high-tech but why didn't you bring it to school today? That way we wouldn't have almost missed class.
Two weeks later
I'm really sorry but my parent's never actually bought me a phone. You guys were talking about your phones the other day and I felt embarrassed that I didn't have one.
You remembered...
When are you going to show us your phone? You've been talking about it nonstop for the last two weeks.
I'm sorry but you're a terrible liar, You said that your phone had virtual reality capabilities, which is incredibly far-fetched, even for you!
Yeah, I really want to see it!
Thank you for forgiving me. You're the best friends I could ask for. My lie has grown so big that I couldn't even sleep.
So you guys aren't mad?
Ironically, two months later, Eric's mom bought him his first iPhone. Although lying had been pointless , he learned a valuable lesson: true friends are always there for you.
Of course not! All of us have told lies at some point, but I wish that you didn't. We're your friends, you can trust us!
We wouldn't have judged you! Remember, I don't have a phone too.
