badcompany_muse Prompt 18 - Tell Me No Lies

Jul 30, 2008 00:20

One of these is not like the other. What if you could only choose one? True & False

She hates lying. She always has, and she always will. From a young age she was raised to tell the truth, to be honest to others and herself. But as she got older, the line between telling the truth and falsifying information began to blur. Sometimes, it's necessary to tell a lie. Because the truth is too painful or too dangerous to reveal.

In her line of work, she finds herself lying more and more with every case. She's become a chameleon in the art of deceit, but she justifies herself by saying it makes her good at her job. But she knows it can only be a matter of time before the lies swallow her whole and change who she is. She's afraid of that day when she crosses into darker territory and isn't able to recognize herself in the mirror.

In the battle between truth and lies, she prays that truth will always win in the end.
