"You rest well... I'm going for an interview. I'll be back" Kenneth kissed Estella's forehead. Estella happened to hear what Kenneth was saying, and she instantly woke up and asked, "Work? Why are you going to work?!" She asked with anxiety. Kenneth didn't want Estella to find out about his family's financial crisis. "Huh? What happened?" Estella shook his arm. He calmed Estella down and told her everything. "So your family is now bankrupt?! BANKRUPT?!" Kenneth was trying to keep calm, "Almost..." Estella was so pissed and angry. However, Kenneth ensured her that he'll earn enough so that he's able to feed the two of them. "ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS FOOD! YOU BETTER EXPLAIN YOURSELF! YAH!"
