Soon after the vacation, she visited Juan's apartment to explore the place and to check out the possibility of making it her home.
Juan's apartment was not the ideal type that she had imagined. The decor left her disappointed, with a shopping cart doubling as a TV stand being one of the biggest dealbreakers for her. She then started making a list of changes she could make to make the place more hers. It was clear that she desperately needed a new apartment of her own but she couldn't afford it.
While Karla didn’t openly admit to financial struggles, she dropped hints about her need for financial support. She has previously expressed a desire for her husband to take care of her.
