Model Answer
Introduction: To be honest, I hate lying and also do not like those people who speak a lie. But some situations occur in a person’s life when he/she have to speak a lie or hide the truth for someone.
When was it? and To whom you did not tell the truth? I also go through such kind of situation when I told a lie to my friend.
I believe trust plays an essential role in every relationship because I make the link more robust, but when it is gone it is tough to live in a relationship or to continue the relationship. One of my friend lives next to my door. Our friendship is very strong because we trust each other very much or can say blindly trust each other.
Why did you not tell the truth? We never speak lie to each other. I know that my friend Anu is very passionated about IT industries and want to do the job in Multinational company that’s why she worked very hard to clear the interview. I also helped her to clear the interview by collecting notes for her.
She appeared for an interview March this year. It is a multinational IT company. She answered all questions correctly. The result declared within ten days. she was very excited because she believes that she selected in that company.
What was the truth? After ten days when I checked her results I was shocked because she was failed just for 50 marks/ half mark, I decided not to told the truth.
When I went to her home she asked about the result, and I told her that due to the lockdown the company postponed the result for one month. I did it because I did not want to break her heart. After one month when she came to know about the truth she fought with me, but I did not get angry because I know my mistake. I motivate her to do it again rather than to give up.
