Lie Exposed (2)

Ken raised his eyebrow, "You were going to invite Kate? A woman you slept with, to sit alongside the woman you fancy?" He asked, feeling gobsmacked. This was a disaster waiting to happen.

Steve froze, his guilty expression thickening.

"Look man, I was going to tell you… That night, I didn't really sleep with Kate." He admitted.

"Excuse me?"

Looking a little uncomfortable, but at the same time filled with remorse, Steve began his explanation.

"That night I struck out time after time when hitting on girls at the party, even though Tara was a great wingman. I would say jokes, but only she would find them funny." He said, letting out a sigh.

Ken held his tongue, allowing his friend the time to speak. In reality, he didn't know how to feel after finding out that he was lied to, so he just listened silently.
