Would You Believe Him?

Barry was an ordinary lad, finding his way through life and meeting challenges when they arose. He told himself that he MUST do better in his final year at school so he had already started to make considerably more effort with his studies. He was even helping charities with a sponsored walk - a very unusual experience for him seeing as how finances for the remaining family were very tight but he was looking forward to it. It was just a walk. With his mates. Afterwards, just why would people never believe him?
