    direct damages

    Explanation:

    In contract law, direct damages may be defined as the reward received which is equal to the difference between the value to be given during making the contract or as agreed and the value actually received for the performance.

    In the context, Carlos was awarded with $200 as direct damage when the women who initially hired Carlos at $700 to paint her house and later call off the work. Carlos found another job for $500 and thus sued the women for the damages.

    Hence the answer is - --

    direct damages
