Kevin: No Mom, I won't accept this money okay..I'll figure something out, I know that I'll find something as I always do..but accepting this! Mom I'm the one who is supposed to take care of her, not she takes care of me..what kind of man I am, No..I'll send this money back
Odette: ( Coughing) Kev..Kevin ( Coughing again )
Kevin: Mom please relax, and where is your medicines? Mom, why didn't you tell me that your medicines had finished?
Odette: I, I didn't want to worry you, as you..you don't have enough money
Kevin: Oh come on Mom, are you for real right now, you don't have any medicine left right now to ease your pain, and all because of your stubbornness..you just ain't differ from Amara, you two are alike..you don't listen to me at all! So now how will I organise to buy you medicines within a day!
