Secrets upon secrets. It seems to be a natural thing for both of them. Maybe it's a characteristic of being Abnegation. Selflessness might be a form of bravery, but can it also lead to secrecy? The desire to help the people you care about by protecting them from information that might be too painful to handle. Selfish and selfless, all at the same time.
At least, that'd be the case for Tobias. In Tris' opinion, her own secrets are out of pride. She doesn't want to see him look at her any different. She doesn't want to be hurt anymore than she's already been.
"Even if I'm still not sure how the hell I got here."
