Keep It a Secret

John and David met in the street one day. Before they departed they had a conversation.
“I want to ask you for a favor, but can you keep it a secret for me?” said John.
“Certainly I can,” answered David.
“I'm short of money these days. Will you please lend me some?”
“Oh, don't worry,” David said, “I'll take it as if I did not hear you.”
