fold preflop...

a) you are oop
b) too likely it'll get raised after you, cutting the implied odds you'll need to play small pp and farm set.

Depending on your reads, I think you should have called the raise. Raiser is very short and can be in there w/ a wide range. The caller has you covered, so he provides you with implied odds. If you hit the set, you can double up. You have to risk less than 10% of your remaining stack to make this call, and this closes the action here. I think you should take the flop. If the caller sends heat your way on the flop you throw it in, but without re-raising he isn't obliged to fire a continuation bet. I think a re-raise probly would have gotten you heads up w/ the raiser, but I don't think that helps you as much as getting the big stack in there if you hit your set.

First i think that you should fold preflop, you are UTG and you still have 33BB, so no risens to take a big chance with a low pocket.
You however desided to limp with this hand, and again if you wanted to play it you might as well give the table the impression that you actually have a strong hand, so instead of limp raise to 3-4BB.
But ok you limped it and a short stacked player raised all in, another player calls. Here i think you have an easy fold, since you could be up against a higher pair or 2 overcard. You might be lucky that they have some of the same cards but is that something you want to bet all your chips on?
