"I have to say…" Poma replied with a smirk on her face. " I have lied about a lot of things… to the extent that I have even lost count of the lies I have told in this life."
Greta gaped at her, unsure of what to say and how to react. She already liked the woman and that tied her hands on reacting to being deceived all this time.
"I noticed that you were too old to bear that child, but somehow, something covered my eyes from really seeing the truth."
Greta's eyes lit up as if something had just occurred to her. "Perhaps, you used a spell on me so that I would not ask certain questions and whoever you speak to would welcome you with open arms. Am I right?" Great asked.
"No, you are not, Greta."
"How am I sure you are telling the truth now? Because since I have known you, you have told me nothing but lies…and to think that I believed all that you said to me. Oh! How gullible you must see me as. I'm sure you look at me and say, 'You fool'."
