Secrets By Nature - (You'll Get the Call Soon)

While we were growing up, there were certain issues that were Natural-Secrets, you don't need to be told "don't tell anyone" about them. Such issues include Family plans for the future (Eg. Mummy telling us during Family hours that Daddy said he'll buy so-so things, etc,), getting a very-poor result in tests, wetting the bed at night and other funny and serious secrets.

Now that we've grown up, certain things are still secrets. Eg. Someone traveling abroad, most people seeking for employment, most people in relationships, most people supporting certain Political Parties.

Why do people keep certain secrets?

In recent times, someone you took as a friend will just email you and tell you he is in another country, some may not even tell you until you see it on their Facebook location.

My friends and I, in order to avoid surprises (after so many of them) figured out a way to find out those traveling abroad. It has been working for us.

Certain friends who traveled abroad without informing us till they got there or until the night of their departure all went through the same process so we are now at least 65 0r 70 percent sure that when what I have in the next paragraph starts happening, someone is about traveling.

One of our friends would always travel to Lagos from time to time, it wasn't for Holiday nor for business because we knew each other well. When you ask him, what's up? he'll tell you nothing much. Until one night he called from Lagos, informing us that he was leaving Nigeria that night. Other friends who traveled to Lagos that way too ended up emailing that they've left Nigeria.

So when your friend who's not working in Lagos, not seeking for work there travels frequently at a time you know he's not going for hols, then brace up to get the news of them leaving Nigeria maybe later from them or from other people/

So for us, when such things happen we know that someone will soon leave us in Nigeria for greener pastures.

A Question for you: Why do people traveling abroad make it a top secret?
