"Sorry, my electricity went off." He texted.

There's no hey baby text after the fight that we reconcile. She felt that he is still waiting and see with her and that he wants to see her in an action of her promises to him.

He added, "Was saving my battery so as to work this night."

She was confused by his 'electricity went off', she wants to ask him what does he meant by that but she chooses to say to him something else until she felt it's the right moment to ask him.

"I just finished my morning stroll. I walked 7 KM."

He replied, "Cool."

She asked him, "So hows your day been so far?"

She still feels awkward between them after the huge fight.

He answers, "Nothing special, just there."

She doesn't know what else to say, besides, "I'm going to Jakarta today and will be staying there for a week. Need to start packing up for moving."

He simply replied, "Cool."

So then she finally found the right question to ask him in response to the electricity, "Is it trip off?"

He answers, "Yeah, like got finished."

She added, "I see... I will be busy today because I also need to go to IKEA and buy some lemons."

He's being supportive of her, "Ok then, do have a nice day ahead."

She replied, "You too :) Good luck for the trading. I'll keep you posted after I call the bank."

He replied, "Thanks."

She applied for another loan for him since the first loan she applied got approved but because she didn't trust him, she didn't give the money to him and instead she chooses to use that money to pay for all her credit cards but it has caused more problems because now she is more in debt with her credit cards. She felt guilty by not trusting him and not giving the money to him like it was his answered prayers but she didn't give it to him. The loan got approved for $1124 below what she applied for. She applied for $2500. She lied to him that the loan got approved for $800. She felt bad afterwards. She didn't give it to him simply because she didn't trust him and she had to pay for her CC and because it got approved below her proposal she was afraid that she can't pay her CC if she gives it to him. But now she regrets it because he had promised her to give her $5000 to pay for everything but now everything hangs in balance.

A couple of hours later he asked her, "How was your trip?"

She replied, "I'm still at home, will be going around 5 PM. Just finished from IKEA. How was trading?"

He responded, "Going fine. Didn't do much yesterday because of my battery. Already made up to $100"

She replied, "That's cool. So how do you intend to charge your gadgets? I'm currently writing on chapter 38."

He answered, "I really don't know at the moment. It's 2:48 AM"

She added, "And your battery is at?"

He replied, "18%"

She replied, "Wow ok"

He replied with surrender people emoji and then, "How bad things always turn out for me. Like it's over two months I have been living and feeding hand to mouth. Crazy. This has way lasted more than I expected."

She knows that he also has a limited food source, "How's the food like?"

He replied, "Babe, I'm really managing my self. Very limited. Like small. And it has lasted because I really don't eat every day."
