Ace walked casually into a classroom, her hair in a pony tail and a black cap on her head. She adjusted the strap on her jansport backpack and checked her crumpled piece of paper again, making sure it was the right building shape, right room on the right hall. Confirming this, she took a seat and waited for Mrs. Ze. This was to be her first private tutoring sessions for Julia. She continuously checked the door to make sure that no one could see her from where she sat. Julia didn't want people to know that she couldn't read or write, or be suspicious of her being alone in a classroom.
She checked the clock again. It was about a minute to half ten. She had made it alright. Julia tapped her fingers on the desk as she waited for the teacher from yesterday- the psychic one with the Ice powers. (Ace wrongly guessed). The longer she sat there the more uncomfortable she became...

Ze came in to the classroom with a whole array of books. that she had just recently got from the library. "Stupid little...Shush this and shush that, for a librarian she sure can talk a lot" Ze mumbled to her self as she schooched her way from the door letting it swing shut. She looked up and smiled. "Oh hello Ace. How are you this morning?" she asked. "Sorry I'm late, i had another class and then i had to run and get these for you" she said holding up the books.
"Ok this is the first one" she said giving her a todler book with large letter print and sat down next to her. "Ok each letter, or shape makes a diffrent sound. Like A sounds like Ahhh" she began.

Ace rolled her eyes, as she watched Mrs. Ze walk into the room. "I know that." She said, insulted at the book made for toddlers. "I know most of this thing. A, B, C, D.. E... F... ..G, H, I....J... You know, it goes on from there..." She said, acting casual about it. The pause between some of the letters was further apart than others, and she gave a waving motion of her hand as she said them, to help her along with the rythm, sometimes tilting her body forward as if it would help get the next one out. She didn't feel like embarassing herself but continuing however.
"This book looks absolutely ridiculous. Isn't there a more, I don't know, 'grown up' way of teaching people?" She raised her brow. "I'm fine, I guess. Can't complain... well... Maybe I can." She smirked.

Ze gave a laugh. "Well im not really sure about a more grown up way of learning things when you probbably should have learned this at a young age." she said sitting down at another desk. "And please dont be sassy with me, noones gonna know your uneducated. alright? noone can see you here or know your here. Just say your having an affair with Jhonathan." she said stateing one of the other teachers here that was relitivly young and in his prime.
She scrached her chin, "I mean he is only 20, and been at this school since he was roughly two....yea that works." she said shrugging her soulders. "Any way, lets start with the alphabet then. Do you know the song for it, maby that will help you." she said before she sang it out wagging her head back and forth, remembering how she taught her children, and grand children.

She listened to Ze speak of Johnathan. "Well-educated with a supportive career..." She shook her head, " doesn't sound like my type, but hey, people don't know that." She shrugged. Julia just hoped that she didn't actually have to explain her being anywhere. The more distance she kept from others the better off she was, she thought thinking back on the scene she had made in the cafeteria.
Her eyebrow seemed to raise further and she tilted her head down at Mrs. Ze singing the alphabet song. "I have heard that before... I did to go pre-school... The tune is the same as those other songs... I remember one about a star... another about a sheep..." Ace leaned on her desk with her elbow and rest her face against her palm. "A B C D E F G, H I K J... L....N... M O P. Q..... R S... V U T... W X π and Z." She felt a little fire of pride in her belly, feeling she had done it right. "Chah, see? That was easy." She smirked.

Ze laughed, "Um ok..." she wondered if the girl had dyslexia "Close but no cigar, A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I, you were good up untill J, K, L, M before N, O P" she said slowly sounding out each letter and writing them down as she said them. "Q R S, then T U V not backwards, and W X, Y, not pie, And Z, like my name." now if you can say that agin in the right order wen can move on to step two, the different sounds each letter can make and then forming those letters in to words, and then essentially reading those words." she gave a nod "Its very easy," she smiled and handed ace a peice of paper," Here we can write out the alpebet as we say it, maby that will get it down and after that we will try and get you counting past ten."
