Well, this is Danny Fenton saying...I didn't write this one...I promise to write one for this topic later, but as for now...Jazz Fenton, everybody!
Thanks, Danny! Hi, other-dimensioners!
Did you just say?...I'm getting off, now.
What? Oh, like you could come up with anything better! Anyways, this chapter is all about, like the title says, keeping a secret! And of . The rest, you'll have to read to find out! Now what does Danny always say...oh yeah! Let it begin!
Sometimes keeping a secret is about more than not telling anybody. I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about.
Like, say a person doesn't want anyone at school knowing they happen to like some kiddy show no one else at the school watches. Then you find out, and promise not to tell anyone, right?
Well, let's say that person dropped a coin or token of some kind with one of the TV show's characters on it. No one but you has noticed it's been dropped, not even the person who dropped it. What are you supposed to do?
Well, you're supposed to bend over, pick it up, give it back to the person whose secret you're keeping, and then tell the kids who question what it is that "It's a token from that new pizza place!" Of course, you'll have to think of some other excuse if the person whose secret you're keeping is over twelve, but that's not the point. The point is: Keeping secrets can be hard work.
Especially if the secret is really, really important. Like, lives could be in danger if it's ruined important? Not that I particularly like everyone the secret is protecting, but...
And if that secret comes up often in conversation without other people realizing it, you've got to spontaneously think of good reasons in order to protect that secret from being revealed. It can be very, very tough, especially if you're not a good actor.
And you know what the worst part is?
At one point, I was keeping the fact I knew this secret a secret from the secretee! That's two secrets in one! Of course, I'm sure you all know which secret I'm talking about. Man oh man...lot of awkwardness once they found out I'd found out!It really can be a burden sometimes. In fact, sometimes I wish I had never found out about it, so that I might just have a normal (or close as possible to it) life.
I mean, really...
This secret is harder to keep than Danny's secret identity was!
Hehe, gotcha, didn't I?
You have another secret?
I thought you said you were getting off?
...I'm not Danny.
Uh huh, sure. Review, please:)
Did you just make an emoticon? Jazz? Hello?
