Keeping a secret

Tweet

It is not easy to keep a secret specially when it has been told to you. My friend has an issue with her husband - he is into drugs - but to the world he is a fine gentleman. They are rich but she cannot just accept this situation. I have another friend who is also a friend of this couple and each time she talks about them it is difficult to converse hiding this secret. I have lent my shoulder and she freely talks about how her husband behaves when he is doped. Yesterday he landed at my place while she is out of the country attending a wedding event in the US. He is not aware that I know he is into drugs. He talked about how happy he is and grateful for whatever he is blessed with. He got up and said he would go outside for a smoke making me believe that it is a cigarette that he is smoking and that set the ball rolling. I said I was a pro active and whenever I come to know of anyone with a bad habit I like to lecture. He did take that in his stride but said he likes what he is doing. I have sent a message to his wife about this visit and am awaiting her reaction I do not want to keep secrets that belong to others. What say?
