Hayley, a five-year-old girl in Richmond, Virginia, struggles with telling lies. One day, a big lie lands her in trouble, and she must learn the importance of honesty to make things right.
Hayley was a five-year-old girl with long brown hair who lived in Richmond. One sunny day, she broke her mom's favorite vase while playing catch inside. Scared of getting in trouble, she blamed it on her little brother, Timmy. Mom believed her, and Timmy got sent to his room. Hayley felt bad but didn't say anything.
The next day, Hayley wanted to play with her friends at the park, but Mom said no. 'You can’t go until Timmy finishes his chores,' Mom said. Timmy was sad and didn't want to do chores because he was wrongly blamed for the vase. Hayley knew it was her fault but didn't know what to do.
At school, Hayley's teacher asked if anyone had broken a classroom toy. Even though she didn't do it, Hayley said yes, thinking it would make her feel better about the vase. But it didn't. Her teacher called her parents, and Hayley was grounded. 'I just wanted to help Timmy,' Hayley thought, but now she was in even more trouble.
Hayley felt like giving up. 'Everything I do goes wrong,' she said to herself. She stayed in her room, thinking about how to fix everything. She felt like there was no way out. She cried and wished she had told the truth from the beginning.
Later, Grandma visited and saw Hayley looking sad. - What's wrong, sweetie? Grandma asked. Hayley told her everything. - You know, being honest is always the best choice, Grandma said. - It might be hard, but it's the right thing to do. Hayley decided to tell the truth.
Hayley went to her mom and told her the truth about the vase and the toy at school. Mom hugged her and said, - I'm proud of you for being honest. Hayley apologized to Timmy and her teacher. - It's okay, Timmy said. - We all make mistakes. Hayley felt a weight lift off her shoulders and learned the importance of honesty.
