Liar Liar

Ellis

I didn’t raise my daughter to be a liar, nor did I raise her to be a slut.

My daughter, Maya Dunn, grew up to be both of those things.

And deep down inside me, I knew I was to blame.

I loved her–too much–and this happened because of that.

My daughter, the liar.

My daughter, the slut.

There is no going back now.

Maya has made her bed.

Now, she will be forced to lie in it.

I will make sure that she does.
