Why did the narrator order coffee for himself also ?

This question is from The Luncheon by Somerset Maugham .

Dear Student,

Th narrator was with a woman who ordered many expensive dishes. He knew if he ordered anything else either he would have no money for the rest of the month or he would have to face a humuliating situation. But seeing all those delicious dishes he threw all the cautions and ordered coffee for himself.
