"You deserve to have help when you need it, just like everyone else," Chris says seriously.
"So... I'd like to get a look at your feet today, assess their condition, and what kind of medicine you'll need to get them healed up. And I'd like to buy you a pair of good boots, so you don't do permanent damage to your feet by walking around in broken-down boots before you get the horse." Chris spreads their hands. "You can consider it a favor from a friend, and plan to pay me back later. I'll accept that. But please, Sam... don't shut me out."
Chris is hoping that they have the right topical medicine on hand, so that Sam can go home with it, and not make promises to go the apothecary that might go unfulfilled. (Listen, it just happened with Leon a little earlier, so Chris is a little paranoid.)
