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.
