Kate listened to Matt's little rant about the educational system and, despite of the touchy subject, couldn't help but smile at how strong his sense of social justice was regardless of which uniform he was wearing. It wasn't the devil suit, not even the lawyer. Even while wearing her dad's clothes, Matt was Matt. The same guy full of passion when it came to face and denounce everything that was wrong with the world. Everything they still had time to demand a change for.

She considered bringing up student debt herself, aware that even some of her close friends would struggle with it for years. But did she have a right to do so? In Kate's economic position, those numbers meant nothing. She wasn't in a position to painfully regret not having graduated from college yet, having wasted time or money.

But it's not like she can go back, be part of that screwed up system just to finish her degree. Forget about the city and her partner. About what was truly important.

"Yeah, a strong one," she quietly agreed.

Matt proved his point, suprising her as he kept the heart-shaped red sunglasses. Her smile grew wider and so much more light-hearted as she thanked him for the gifts. But her attention was focused on him. "I can't believe you kept those," she admitted as her laughter reached her voice.
