Roni looked away, clearly hurt by the comment.
Sylvia responded using a softer tone. "Aw, come on. Think about it. How much do you still need?"
"I'm fifteen thousand short."
"You really think a guy is going to come up with that kind of money for you?"
"Well, I..." Roni didn't make it to the end of her sentence. It was clear that was exactly what she thought.
"OK, think about it. Wouldn't that be awfully generous, considering you've never met? He tell you what he does for a living yet?"
"I told you before. It's secret. He's on some sort of classified assignment that he can't talk about. He can't even tell me where he is. But he says soon it will be over, and we'll be together. I can't wait."
