Arc stood in the doorway,listening,watching.

She turned her head to out the sausage on a plate and let out a startled cry when she saw Arc, "h-how long we're you there?!" she asked embarassedly.

"Not long" he answered.

"Y-you heard me singing though, didn't you?" she asked embarassedly.

He nodded,"and it was nice" he said.

She blushed, "R-really? You think so?" she smiled at him, a hint of pride in her expression as she brought the plate of sausages to him.

He smiled and nodded."Its the truth,it was nice" he said.

"Well, thanks. last night was so terrible, I thought we could start it a little brighter," she poured him a glass of orange juice.

"Start of a better, possibly brighter day" he said to show his agreement.

"How are we gonna fix the roof? And the floor in my room? And everything that was in there?" she asked with concern and took a bite of sausage.

"It cost money to fix stuff like that.A lot.And unlike adults,I don't have insurance or any help with that stuff" he sighed,taking a bite of food.

"Then how are we gonna fix it?" she asked worriedly.

"Earn money I guess" he said.That's all he could think of..

"But how? No one ever even gave me food for working... No one would hire me for a real job... And you have school."

"I can find a way to do my part after school.As for you" he looked at her,"I'll have to think of something"

She looked down, feeling ashamed she couldn't help even if she tried.

"Well find you something." He pondered for a moment,"name some things your good at,everything"

"I-I'm okay at drawing... You said I was good at singing... I'm good at cleaning, but that's what no one paid me to do..." she listed off, "I don't know... I haven't had a lot of different experiences..."

"Singing.." he repeated,thinking over,ideas.

"M-maybe I could learn how to play an instrument too?" she suggested.
