I got a job as a coffee shop barista. ( the song ends, so billy--lowers his arms back down, gives abel a little space. runs fingers through his hair to fix strands back to one side of his forehead before he continues, ) It pays a little better here than back home, considering how rare coffee is. And expensive.

( too much for billy to afford a lot on his own, but his own ability to run a coffee pot back home worked in his favor here. )

So it attracts a lot of New Amsterdam's finest.
