Melissa crouched in the dimly lit kitchen, tirelessly scrubbing the stack of greasy bowls and plates.

She was determined to pay off her debts as quickly as possible.

She often thought about clearing her debt to Marcus, believing it would bring her some peace when facing him.

The thought of their relationship, however, was something she dared not entertain.
