Alan got some food put together while Dawn went and showered. There wasn't too much in his kitchen but ramen noodles and some pork chops, so he threw together pork miso ramen. He had no clue why that type of ramen in particular, maybe a comic about a gutsy young ninja? Regardless, just as Dawn plopped down on the couch he finished dishing out the ramen into two bowls.<br/><br/>"I've had to make some choices... I wanted my family, or what's left of it at least, to be able to have a good life. That involved me getting a loan to send my brother to college. I went today to ask for an extension so that I could have a little longer to pay it back, but the boss of the mafia kinda said...no."<br/><br/>Alan brought over the ramen and gave Dawn a bowl and chopsticks, and then sat in a nearby chair and began to eat.
