A white letter appeared in the mail, a young boy picked it up and ripped it open, seeing the contents and ripping it up. The boy hid the remains and ignored it, hopping his parents wouldn’t find out. Several months later, the boy is riding in his car with his parents, who were rambling on about how his entrance exam score was so high. But their plans unravel in front of them when they find out the truth. What was something you have lied about before in your life that has been worse than this? In The Lie by Kurt Vonnegut teaches a lesson you will never forget.
A young boy is on his way to a top 10 school, but has a secret that he is afraid to tell his parents. When they got there, they found out that the boy couldn’t attend it. As much as they asked for the administrators to give the boy a chance, they denied and sent them home. The mom didn’t want him to go, but his dad was furious at his son.
