"Did you really think that was the perfect lie? I've been told by more than one classmate that they've spotted you outside. They even sent me some photos. Would you like to take a look?" As soon as Claudia pulled out her phone, Thalia's expression soured momentarily. Then, she forced a bright smile the next second.
"What are you talking about? I spent my afternoon reading in the library. I even borrowed a collector's edition of Andersen's fairy tales that I missed out on buying for myself. See for yourself in the library." Thalia's calmness and composure were so convincing that Claudia would have believed every bit of it but for the evidence she had with her. Thalia's lies left Claudia feeling a little apprehensive.
"Do you think I'm as devious as you are? I'm telling you I have evidence because that's the truth, and I have a pretty good idea of why you'd want to go to school with me. It's because of Lucas, right? I didn't see what happened because I was rehearsing, but you made such a scene that it ended up being posted on our school forum. Lots of students have been saying things about you, so I bet you couldn't bear to hear it all. Then you decided to find someplace where you can hide.
"But I don't understand why all of this has to do with me. I'm your sister. Why would you badmouth me in front of Dad?"
Claudia's words made Thalia's expression sour even more. "What are you talking about? Why don't I know about this forum?"
"Because only the students from our school can access it. Don't change the subject, Thalia. Answer my question: why did you lie to Dad? You were never in the library, and I ended up searching the entire school like a headless chicken just to try and look for you!"
Thalia's gloomy expression was
evident, and she wanted to see what sort of posts had been made in the
forum. The thought that ever fet
else saw her gnawed at her
thoughts, and she wondered if her unflattering appearance had been photographed by someone and posted online for all to see.
"That's not important! Haven't you embarrassed me enough?" Thalia stepped forward anxiously and tried to snatch the phone from Claudia's hand. "Hurry up and show me the comments that were made about mel didn't do anything! There's no reason for them to take pictures of me!"
"Aha! So now you admit it! I guess I'm not even half as important as a stranger like Lucas," Claudia said in disappointment.
Thalia, however, did not seem to care. Claudia could never be compared to Lucas anyway.
