Most likely not economically speaking, but Max surely is in a higher place than kayla ever was. 16th floor, that's way higher.
It has not been too long since Kayla met her peculiar new friend, but she surely likes him a lot for what she knows now. Max invited kayla to his place to spend some quality time together, little did kayla know Max knew about her little energy drink condition, and took advantage of it. Thankfully, said advantage was giving her quite a memorable, cheerfull afternoon, instead of getting her to do whatever he wanted, which, let's face it, is what most people would do.
Thankfully Max is much kinder, and Kayla es much smarter.
