The offer is somewhat surprising and it probably shows on her face. The one thing she still needed to work on in the business was her poker face. The kindness of strangers here is still surprising to her. She thinks she's spent too much time in big cities and with bad people.

"You don't seem bad," she assures him. And she thinks about the hostel she was going to walk back to and the prospect of drunken Irish teenagers waking her up in the middle of the night. The feeling of being even more lonely around more people. Her mother's voice in her head is warning her of the dangers of going back to a strange man's house alone, but her mother's voice forgets that she's done a lot worse and risky things lately.

"I...that would be...I mean...if you wouldn't mind. I can give you some money."

Something she's in no lack of even if she looks like a raggedy, poor uni student.
