Excited Daughter

One day, Lila told Kristine about an award ceremony at her school. Lila told her that she had to attend an honor roll ceremony, as she was also being awarded there. Lila was very excited about it and wanted to make the best of the moment by having her mother by her side. Unfortunately, the little girl’s wish remained unfulfilled.

Can’t Attend

Kristine told Lila that she would not be able to make to her award ceremony due to some reasons. Lila’s face dropped. She felt sad as it was a big day for her and she wanted her mother to stand and clap for her, praise her. Lila asked her the reason, but instead, Kristine said…

Family Members

Kristine instead of telling her daughter the reason, consoles her saying that what if she won’t be present there, but her father and grandmother would be. Lila for some time felt bad, but then she cheered with the fact that other members of her family would be there. However, the next day at school, Kristine had to answer others.

A Lie

Kristine had a lot going through her head other than hurting Lila’s feelings. Next day, when she went to school to drop her daughter’s, the other parents who were friends with Kristine asked her why did she not attend the award ceremony the previous day. Kristine had to answer the question now. But she lied. She told them that she had some work commitments. What was the reason that she had been hiding from everyone?

A Guilt

Kristine at that time told a lie, but later on, returning home, guilt struck her. She knew she had said a clear white lie about her absence at her daughter’s award ceremony. She was feeling ashamed of herself. First, she missed Lila’s ceremony and then lied about it to everyone else. Her inner conscience then compelled her to do something.

Confession

Kristine decided to tell everyone the real reason for her missing her daughter’s award ceremony. She did not think much about how would people and everyone else react to it after they would come across the truth. She with a pounding heart took to Facebook and made a confession.
