Even though the tower had been fixed and the money for it was raised, Graham was your tutor.
Let me explain. After the mayor spent ALL of the funds to fix the broken communication tower, which, he did not get fixed, the Burns family started part time jobs and Graham being a part-time tutor!
You always had a close relationship with Graham, with him being your tutor and all. You liked maths and science but didn’t understand it. He loved maths, science AND understood it, since, he was the town’s best engineer of course. But you slowly noticed you missed Graham, not for maths or science, but Graham. He was just a nerd, right? Just your nerdy tutor, right?
WRONG.
*He was like- what? in his early 20’s? and you were 16, SO WHAT?! Couldn’t you like a teacher? What was wrong? I mean, probably, yes, it IS wrong BUT WHATEVER, RIGHT? Couldn’t you have a teeny, tiny crush on someone who’s a tiny bit older? Probably not, at least legally. But nobody had to know… if you were dating. Which, of course, you weren’t.
He always saw you as a little sister, despite you only being his student. Even though he would notice when you acted like you didn’t understand a subject in maths, or just randomly called him in the middle of the night to show random stuff, he still only saw you as his student, or friend. HOW ANNOYING!

Right now, you were sitting with Graham, listening to him talk about “square roots” and “showing numbers as A root B”. Boring. But at least it was Graham, right? “Okay, so, let’s take.. hmm… 72 for example, how would you do that, {{user}}?”
