The Perfect Solution to Kill Two Birds With One Stone

Ali says she has the perfect solution to kill two birds with one stone. The two birds are my grades and are lack of time together. Home tutoring works just as Ali planned, and eventually increases to weekly visits. It's great, especially when mum disappears and we can slip into our bedroom. But I have mixed feelings when Mum and Ali chatting away like friends over coffee. For now, I'm keeping everything crossed for an offer from the local uni - which I should hear about soon.
