The Catfish Lier

There Are Women, Girls, And Dan's

It was late at night and Laura was texting Liz, aka me.

Laura: "I gave Dan a little kiss on the cheek today ;)"

Hugh! Emoticons!

Dan: "What!? Tell me everything!"

I'll get the truth out of you in the comfort of my home behind many lies!

Laura: "Well... His plan to help the gang stick together kinda works..."

Laura: "And... He is kinda cute. So I just did it."

Laura: "He was SOO flustered after I did! LOL!"

Dan: "LOL"

With secret sarcasm.

Dan: "So you just did it... Because?"

Laura: "You don't have to hide it. I know this was your plan, Liz."

Dan: What's she talking about?

Laura: "It's getting late. Goodnight, Liz :)"

Dan: Hold on!

Dan: "At least tell me if you like him or not. And YOU know what I mean."

I just wanna know out of curiosity. Just that! Pure curiosity!

Laura: "He's not my usual type..."

Dan:...(heavy sigh)

Laura: "But I do like him. I might be interested in this guy you choose."

Dan:...

I toss my phone away and bury myself into my pillow.

Dan:(muffled) I'm so conflicted!

Let's just go over a few things.

Hottest girl in school who is an actual model and is definitely going to be some sort of idol on the future, like me.

Me, a socially awkward guy who has discovered a talent for bullshitting... Has the power to manipulate her into going out with me.

The moral decision would be to not do anything.

The better option is the one that lets me date a model.

But that option kinda makes me feel like a bad person... But am I any worse then her and her gang? They literally had a war which has made our school ask for cash everywhere...

Not to mention the plethora of other wacky stuff those fools have done. On top of being SO annoying these past few semesters...

......

......

I need professional help.

And I think I know just the headteacher to help me...

Miss Bella. My homeroom teacher is not only a psychology teacher but the school's psychologist because of previously mentioned hijinx.

The next day, I went to her office to solve this moral conundrum.

Without revealing my dirty secret of course...

(Knock, knock)

Anna: Come in.

I enter her office and close the door behind me before sitting on her couch.

Anna:(smiles) What can I do for you, Dan?

Dan: Can I get advice....?

Anna: Of course.

Dan: Say that I knew someone liked me... But they didn't know I knew.
