I yelled at Sam for telling... «The Pale-Faced Lie»
cat_on_the_shelf22 января 2022I yelled at Sam for telling his teacher and class about what went on over the weekend. He didn’t think he’d done anything wrong. Now nine years old, he always told the truth even when the consequences were painful. That would never change. It was the weirdest combination possible—Sam was devious but honest. He would do whatever I told him yet wouldn’t hesitate to tell anyone if asked about it.
Though we were as close as brothers could be, I had stopped confiding in him years earlier about things that could get us in trouble. He didn’t believe in secrets. But I had lots of them, not just ones I needed to keep from Dad, but things I didn’t want anyone to know—not even Lonnie—mostly how I hated being a Crow.
