If you must lie, be brief
Toria had been friends with Gift for so long, infact they were like sisters. They practically did everything together and most people wished they had what they both shared.
One time, Gift's boyfriend now ex though had cheated on her and the way Toria stood up for her, one would think that she was the one whose boyfriend had betrayed her.
Toria's relationship with her boyfriend was growing stronger by the day and then jealousy slowly crept in as Gift was not happy with the fact that she was not as lucky as Toria with relationships. She felt she had to do something about it. She started calling Toria's boyfriend to tell him so many bad things about her. Andrew knew better than to believe Gift. He told Toria about the whole thing and even showed her their chats. Toria could not believe her best friend could do that to her so she decided to confront her.
Gift denied everything and was really upset that Toria would believe Andrew over her. She lied so much that Toria's ears hurt badly that she screamed 'oh please! If you must lie make it short'. And that was the end of their friendship.
