Why does Sade feel guilty about not telling the truth?

In the book 'The Other Side of Truth' Sade is very uncomfortable about telling the truth to people in London. Sade feels like this because she is worried that if people found out about her secrets and who she is that her father could be hurt or even killed if the authorities found out. Evidence of this is in chapter 15 'Trouble with the truth' (p. 72). Sade has grown up with her parents telling her that lying is bad and that she should always strive to tell the truth. So when Sade tells lies to the people she meets it's hard for her as it's not in her nature. There are times when telling the truth is going to result in bad consequences before good will come so Sade must keep the truth locked inside of her.
