What did Andy have to hide from Keisha?

• A. He was studying
• B. He was late for practice
• C. He was drinking
• D. He was moving away

Answer: (C)

The idea being tested is why a character might keep something dangerous hidden from someone they care about—how fear, guilt, and the desire to protect that person push secrecy. Andy hides that he was drinking from Keisha because admitting it would reveal a risky, dangerous behavior tied to the night of the events in the story. Drinking implies he might have been driving after drinking, which creates guilt and fear about consequences, judgment, and what Keisha would think or how it would affect their relationship. That motivation to keep a dangerous fact secret fits the emotional stakes of the moment. Hiding other things like studying, being late for practice, or moving away doesn’t carry the same weight or reveal a risky behavior that would impact their trust and future, so they don’t explain why he would feel the need to keep it from Keisha in the same way.
