Have you ever pondered the concept of lying? Why do people engage in it, and how many potential outcomes can it lead to? Will truth inevitably come to light, or can a lie become permanently woven into the fabric of reality? If so, what exactly is this reality that humanity discusses? After all, humans are the only living beings on Earth that lie and contemplate reality. You'll never witness a cat deceiving another cat. While they might maintain secrets, these secrets don't distort the fabric of reality; they merely conceal some threads. A cat will find a secluded location for its kittens and keep it a secret, but it won't lie to another cat about the secret location. But have you ever wondered why? Think about it; the answer is quite simple and lies directly in front of you. Have you figured it out yet? Cats and other animals lack our communication skills. Lies simply exist because we communicate better; they're merely a byproduct of our 'communication'.

Frieder was standing at the table, taking the lunch as usual. He was rather quiet while his colleagues were rambling nonstop about their everyday problems, their children, their future plans and many more subjects that he found totally uninteresting. He was often picked on for his lack of communication, the others were always trying to tell him: "You're young! You should be talking a lot more, you should be more positive, you should stop spending so much time in your own head!". Frieder wasn't always like this, he was a quite happy and funny guy, never stopped talking and making jokes, sometimes people associated him with a clown, but he didn't care as long as he made others laugh.

The message from Mr. Collins was still fresh in her mind, replaying over and over like a sinister echo. *"I miss our lessons, Lila. You can’t hide forever."* Every time she thought about it, her stomach twisted in knots.
