The Truth Story

It all happened when the boy was invited to a BBQ session that were held to celebrate their classmate birthday. The event change the boy. The next day, the boy was had been interrogated by the parties involved to relieve the secret that would affect his personal life. Under the tremedous pressure, which the boy could no longer take it, the boy relieved the truth.

Since that day onward, the boy began to fall in love with the truth that he held deadly with for so long. Till today, the boy still could not forget the moment of shocking and the reactions of the parties who was there when the truth was told, especially the truth itself. The end.
