Project #87: Secrets, Take 2

This year, we're going to re-up an old challenge: Secrets. 100-500 words. Tell a character's secret. Or have a character tell a secret - what secret, and to whom? Or have a character being asked to keep a secret. Or maybe a character accidentally overhears a secret. What does she do with it? Past variations on the 'secret' them include vice and confessions.

Happy writing!
