DM The Big Lie
One fine day Margo was playing with Dave and Kevin in the lab. They were having a lot of fun. Suddenly Margo accidently knocked over something! She looked to see what it had been. It was a water jug on the desk which had Lucy's AVL papers on it and now they were really soaking wet.
Margo tried to mop it up with her sleeve. ''Mom will go mad'' she thought worriedly. Dave and Kevin vanished seconds before Lucy burst in. She'd heard the loud crash and she saw the mess immediately.
''Just look at all my papers!'' she gasped in horror ''How did this happen?'' Margo didn't know what to say, but then she had an idea. ''Dave and Kevin were fighting'' she said quickly ''they knocked over the jug of water onto your papers.
''Well wait until I find those minions!'' Lucy scolded rushing off as fast as she could. When Lucy was gone. Margo heaved a sigh of relief. It had been a close call, but she thought she'd gotten away with it.
As Margo walked up the stairs out of the lab, she saw Lucy with Dave and Kevin. The two minions didn't look very happy. Margo could tell they were trying to tell Lucy something. For the rest of the day, Margo was very quiet. Nobody could understand what was wrong with her.
What's the matter Margo?'' Edith asked from practising her ninja skills. ''Nothing'' Margo said. But something clearly was. Even Gru couldn't understand what was coming over Margo. He could see she looked as depressed as the time she'd been broken up with Antonio at the Cinco de Mayo Party they'd been to.
''What's wrong with Margo?'' Agnes asked. ''I don't know Agnes'' Gru said shaking his head worriedly. After dinner when everyone was gone. Margo went up to Lucy. ''I'm sorry I spilt the water on your AVL papers'' she said quietly ''and I'm sorry I told lies''.
''Accidents do happen sometimes'' Lucy agreed ''but there's never an excuse for lying''. Margo stared at her feet. ''I don't like being lied to Margo'' her mum said ''Will I be able to trust you in from now on?''. ''Yes'' Margo replied ''Being a liar feels really awful''.
She vowed never to tell lies ever again.
The End
