To Tell or Not to Tell

So there's a little bit of confusion between my friends and this is mainly because of a situation that happened yesterday that has kinda divided us into two groups, the first group is for the motion, while the second group is against it.

There's another friend of ours who isn't a part of any of these two groups, and it's simply because the issue causing confusion is about him and a girl that he's currently in kinda like a 'talking stage' with. I said kinda, because to me, it seems like they've gotten past the talking stage but I can't really know for sure.

Anyway, so he and this girl have been getting really close for a week now. She would come almost everyday to spend the whole day at his place, and because of how my hostel rooms are positioned, it is almost hard for anyone to have a constant visitor like that and no one would know.

So basically, their friendship (or whatever it is) isn't a private one, it is one well known by all of us, most especially the guys. Well, few days ago, the guy (let's call him Amos) decided to take a little trip out of town, and apparently he had given the lady the keys to him room, even though they had only just met a week ago.

Fast forward to yesterday, we noticed that unlike the past few days where she would always come over to his place just to chill and hangout (even though it's just her there), she had invited a friend over this time, and it didn't take long for us to know that this wasn't no ordinary male friend because we started hearing certain sound effects that usually only gets heard when two lovers are in a room.

Now, if you're wondering how we knew this, if we probably were being noisy...again, we live in a building that is famously known as a face me, I face you kinda building, and unless you're very quiet at night and during the day when there are only few people around and less noise, people tend to overhear certain things you're saying, or in this case, doing, inside your room. And seeing how she only started coming to our hostel only a week ago, she probably had no idea how loud it can be during times like this where everywhere is quiet.

So, while she was busy with her business, it started to become everyone's business because of the noise. Well, she did what she had to do and left, and now fast forward to today, our friend, Amos, is back and some of the boys are considering telling him because they feel it was disrespectful of her to bring another guy to someone else's home when he wasn't around.

I and some other guys on the other hand feel that the right cause of action is for everyone to mind their business, because in as much as we do feel that what she did was wrong, it still isn't our place to tell him something like that, especially since we aren't sure about the status of their relationship.

But funny enough, there's a part of me that also would like Amos to know what happened, but then again, it's a 60/40 situation for me... 60% being me wanting us to mind our business, and 40% being me wanting him to know what happened...because as a good friend, you should always have your friend's back, right?
