After the death of her ex boyfriend Shakil Kazemi earlier this year, Bex was left heartbroken – and with the brutal stabbing that took his life still playing on Bex’s mind, she decides it is time to quit Sixth Form.

But knowing that her daughter is gifted, Sonia struggles with the thought of her quitting so quickly and begs her to transfer to a different collage.
Sonia later goes behind Bex’s back though and goes to meet her daughter’s college tutor.
While she’s there Sonia is shocked to discover that not only is Bex very clever, but she is also en route to a top notch university if she keeps her grades up.
Desperate for her daughter to get the best education possible, Sonia tells Bex what she’s been told and, of course, the news doesn’t go down well.
Determined to do the right thing, Sonia decides that she should sell her beloved car so that she can pay for a private tutor for her daughter.
Despite Martin warning her she’s making a mistake, Sonia puts her car up for sale, before inviting Bex’s head of Sixth Form over for a chat.
But when Bex arrives home and finds her tutor in her lounge, she finally breaks down and reveals her grief over Shakil.
As Bex’s emotions start pouring out, Sonia realises she’s made a big mistake, and it is only when the teenager has a heart-to-heart with Shakil’s mum, Carmel, that she comes to a drastic decision about her future.
