One time when I was younger I kept a pretty "big" secret from my parents. I put the quotations around big because in my mind it was very big however it was actually not a big deal at all. I was so worried that my parents would find out; I couldn't eat nearly as much as I was normally able to. My parents were becoming concerned about my eating habits and they eventually got the secret out of me. They practically laughed in my face when I told them what I was hiding from them. What my big secret was that I had accidentally stepped on a spider and killed it.
