"No, I think I'm good without going. The people I hang around are risky enough as it is. I don't need some sketchy dude who's probably trying to toss you into human trafficking to land me in jail too." Savannah gaped t him. He took a tone she'd never heard from him before, it struck her in a way that made her take an involuntary step back. So that was it, he didn't care, not in the way that's she'd hoped. She felt pressure behind her eyes and she pursed her lips.

When she didn't say anything he spoke again. "I'm sorry... look, I just know this isn't going to end well, and I don't want to be in a position where I know you need help and I can't help you. I just don't think it's a good idea. You'll be killed or stuck with a solicitation charge or something. There are other jobs that offer money off of the books. Elena's parents were here for years working off the books. Why don't you ask her if she knows any places where you can find some short term work?" He said and she looked at him, his tone softer now, more reasonable. That was an option, but she was running out of money ,and she didn't want to be without it, she didn't want to rely on him more then she already did. She took a shuddered breath. Emotion heavy in her chest. "You aren't a burden. I just don't want you to get hurt."

He said and She felt a small parody of a smile tug at her lips.

"Alright....I'll see what I can do with that but..." She said, and sighed. "I just...I still have a little saved, it's not much but It'll get me by, but what happens when that's gone? I don't want you looking after me, That's not for you to do and technically, this is short term work..." She said, and she knew he would just get annoyed again, and so she did want she thought she'd never do. She lied..sort of.
"I...I'll look for other options." She said, with a nod, looking at her feet and she would, look, but she was going to go still. She refused for her to have a way to make money and choose not to. She would have tried for something more legit, where she here legally, she'd been trying to earn a dual citizenship but she needed a home to do that, a place to live and a job, to pay for it, which she couldn't do without a Visa, which she no longer had. So she decided, she would go, but only make enough to pay for a small apartment, or something, and then she would work on her citizenship. "You say I'm not burden yet every time you look at me, you look so stressed...that is the definition of being a burden, Nick." She didn't want to have this conversation, but she had to, at least give him something to think about.
