Episode 15: A heart-to-heart

Helen:Hello?
Alice:Hi Helen.
Helen:What's up Alice?
Alice:It's so quiet at work I thought I'd give you a ring. A little bird told me that the landlord is your dad!
Helen:How did you find out?
Alice:Never mind about that. Why have you been keeping it a secret for so long?
Helen:Well because as soon as people know how rich my parents are, they start treating me differently. When you and Tim came to live here I wanted to start afresh so I decided not to tell anyone.
Alice:Oh Helen you're such a silly goose! I promise, it won't make any difference to us! So no more secrets OK?
Helen:OK then.

Vocabulary :

to have a heart-to-heart: to have an honest and open conversation about your feelings
