This was not easy. Even with the help and support of her girlfriend and her cousin and mother, Xia couldn't be as independent as she wanted to be. Not that she didn't enjoy her English sweetheart doing things for her and making breakfast while her mother waited on her hand and foot. It just...felt funny having people do so much for you when you can't do for yourself. 

With her love and her mother taking turns helping her, Xia tried to get away with doing things on her own using one arm. She tried to go to the bathroom when her mother and Marlin was away from her for a moment and that didn't end well. She barely made it in time. She tried to get something to drink on her own, she broke the mug dropping it on accident. Let's not even speak about how Xia nearly stumbled and fell. As stubborn as she was, she wasn't giving up.

Carlo has been a help and she had to give it to him for being supportive and not being an ass. He still kept watch of her place until he managed to catch some shady figure heading to her home. He didn't let her know about it, not wanting her to worry but he needed answers and was going to do things his way. 

Back with Xia, she wanted Marlin to go and enjoy herself as her mother was still going to be around to watch after her. She didn't want her girlfriend devoting every moment of her life next to her "crippled ass Island Girl", Xia puts it. She wanted Marlin to still go out and have fun. She was serious even though earlier in the day, Xia had a moment she cried privately out of frustration about her situation and feeling helpless but she was okay. In reality, Xia was feeling very vulnerable but didn't want Marlin to see that even though she was a push away from being depressed.  Reassuring her that she'd be okay, she and her mother flipped through the channels and decided to have her mother paint her toenails. If Marlin had everything she needed to make mixed drinks, Keyla was going to do just that even though she was going to give Xia a non alcoholic version of what she makes.
