People love to say that honesty is a virtue. That if you tell the truth, the universe will reward you. But here’s the thing about honesty—it’s a gamble. You open your heart, bare your soul, and what do you get? Lies. Smiles stretched too thin to reach their eyes. Promises spoken like glass—fragile, already cracking at the edges. And when someone betrays you like that, what’s the right thing to do? Do you cry? Beg for forgiveness? Try to forgive them? No. You teach them a lesson. The air in the room pressed down, dense and suffocating, every breath a struggle. The dim light overhead flickered weakly, casting unsteady shadows that danced on the peeling walls.
