An Emotional Liar

It was when I got to the main room that I could see that we had indeed been the last to arrive.

And as I expected, neither Nomiko nor my mother had arrived yet.

"Good, everyone is here. So we'll be able to share what we know as well."

It may sound strange, but my father never speaks up in this kind of situation, let alone decides to create this kind of discussion.

I don't know if it's the fact that he's back with my mother and sister that makes him give it his all, but it's very rare to see him so involved in a conversation.

"And if we don't have any leads, what should we say?" I asked as I continued to make my way around the room.

"If you don't have any leads, you can give us a summary of your day, tell us what area you visited and the approximate number of people you passed."

"Um, okay."

Instinctively, what came to mind when my father mentioned the summary of our day, I immediately thought of my kiss with Alia.
