'Oh mum!' I wailed.
'I know you didn't want to miss Gabby's party. If you want, I can't text her mum and let her know that we had to go and visit your uncle and meet your 'to be' aunt or something if you like...'
'But mum that would be lying!' I complained. I didn't like lying but sometimes it had to be done.
If I still wanted to be friends with Gabby, lying could possibly be the only way.
'I know, I know, but I would only do it if you wanted me too.' Mum said to me, in her smoothest tone.
But then I realised that Gabby still knew I was at Jay's. What would I say to that?
I told mum.
'I can say that I needed to pick up a letter from Jay's mum. Well, that could sort of be a lie, but I do actually need to. That's what i forgot to ask you to do. But I can say that if you would like me to.'
I thought about it all for a minute.
'Yes, sure mum. You can say all of that. I don't care if you lie, but I just still want to be friends with Gabby. Thanks I love you mum.'
