Xiao loved her father very much. She thought he was the bravest and most honest person in the world. One day, Xiao heard her father telling a little lie to his boss. She was puzzled. How could her father lie?
Xiao decided to ask her mother about it. - Mommy, why did Daddy lie? Xiao asked. Her mother looked thoughtful. - Sometimes grown-ups tell small lies to help others, she explained. But Xiao didn't understand why it was okay.
Xiao began to worry. What if her father wasn't as honest as she thought? She tried to ask him about it. - Daddy, is it okay to lie? she questioned. Her father smiled but looked tired. - Sometimes we have to, he said, but Xiao still felt unsure.
Feeling confused, Xiao decided she couldn't solve this mystery. She thought about giving up. - Maybe I just won't understand, Xiao sighed to herself. She felt like she was losing a part of her perfect world. It made her sad.
Xiao's mother noticed her daughter's sadness. - You know, wisdom isn't always about knowing everything, she said. - It's about understanding why people do things. Her mother explained that her father lied to protect them. Xiao started to feel better.
Xiao decided to talk to her father again. - Daddy, I understand now, she said. Her father hugged her tightly. - I'm so proud of you for wanting to understand, he replied. Xiao felt her heart fill with love and wisdom.
