  1. That’s ok. I have a little money left.

  2. That’s ok. I am having some money with me.

  3. That’s ok. I am having a little money with me.

  4. That’s ok. I have little money left.

A Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is A because 'a little money' means a small amount (positive meaning), fitting the context of having enough money to last. Option D says 'little money' which means hardly any (negative meaning), contradicting the context that the money will last. Options B and C incorrectly use present continuous 'am having' which is not used for stating possession.
