"Ha! No, not really. I don't really know how to steal here anyway, since there ain't no money. But don't worry. I only ever took shit from the rich." Adam smiled as if this was immensely comforting, not realising the slightly insulting implication that Amalia had to be poor. (Also, this wasn't strictly true. He stole from the rich and also anyone who had something he wanted).
She seemed to relax a little. Adam smiled at the information about her grandmother, thinking it sweet that she'd kept the business. The kind of life he could never imagine, taking on a cake shop from a sweet old lady. The only family business he'd ever had had been distinctly more salacious.
"Uh, well. I'm just hungry, really. I came here bout uh...I dunno, three weeks ago maybe? And I still don't really know what the hell I'm doing. I thought we were all dead but...I guess not, cos I met the raggy thing and it said I'm not." He shrugged, apparently unbothered by the concern of his potential death.
"You...been here forever? Or did you drop in too?" Probably forever, if the shop had been her grandmothers, but Adam didn't want to assume anything about this place anymore.

So what's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking?
It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making
