i think in your own interest , its better u tell your uncle the truth, because who knows tomorrow.
u might be in need of something and your uncle might use the present or anyone use the present to judge the future.
I can understand why u helped your friend, but if i were u, i wont put mind in the money again, because its better for you to put off your mind in something u are not sure off and be able to focust on what is yet to come.
Tel them the truth, its good, its biblical, and also boost his trust and confident back.
if u can't face him directly, pick the phone explain the situation to your mum.
trying to help a friend , and covering up, u are hurting other people including yourself.
so be smart!!!!
