Me and Luca were in our office, him casually chilling on the couch while I was pacing around the room.

'Why do we have to do it?' I asked with a serious tone.

'I don't know.' Luca shrugged his shoulders. 'Galtier arranged this.'

Not long ago, we just found out that some of the players, including me and Luca, will have to take a Lie Detector Test. Nothing serious, just for entertainment. But I had no clue what David, our team's interviewer is going to ask.

And truth is, I was terrified.

'Hey.' Luca grabbed me to stop me from pacing around the room. 'What are you so worried about?' he asked, now standing in front me.

'He could ask anything.' I said quietly. 'Anything.' I said with a serious look on my face.

'Did you murder someone or...' he said laughing, making me roll my eyes.

The door to our office opened and Luca quickly grabbed me and hugged me.

'What happened?' Neymar asked concerned.

'You okay?' Kylian added.

'Yeah.' I said confused as Luca was still hugging me.

He then let go and turned towards them. 'Yeah, I just needed a hug.' Luca said quietly, looking upset.

Wow. He's good.

'Andrea?' Ney asked approaching his friend and giving him a hug.

'Mhmhm.' Luca answered, Kylian raising his eyebrows confused but without saying anything.

After a while we were called into a room. There was a table with two chairs in opposite sides.

'Okay, who wants to go first?' Galtier asked excitedly.

'I will.' Marquinhos said, stepping in front of us.

'Perfect.' David said, taking a seat on one of the chairs while Marquinhos sat on the other one.

There was also another man who was a professional in lie detectors. He was the one reading the results and saying if we're lying or telling the truth.

'Hello, how are you?' David asked.

'I don't know... okay, I guess.' he chuckled.

'We'll start easy.'

'Yeah, okay.'

'Is your name Marcos Aoás Corrêa?'

'Yes.'

'Do you play for PSG as the number 5?'

'Yes.'

The professional gave them the thumbs up, suggesting everything was the truth.

'You are the captain of the team, do you think someone else deserves this title?'

'No.'

We all chuckled to his straightforward answer.

'Don't want to think about it?'

'I don't have to.' Marq said smiling.

He was telling the truth.

'Is Mbappe the fastest player you've ever played with?'

'Yes, he's very fast.'

'You're telling the truth. Next question, do you think Kimpembe is a good DJ?'

'Very good.' he said nodding his head. 'Probably the best in the team.'

Truth.

'What about Neymar?'
