A family across from
the school invited me over for a dinner last night, through their son, who is
my student. Responding in a most polite way, I decided not to join them–was too
shy for a kind gesture. I felt bad at first, but my student reassured me an
understanding.
I don’t know them that
well or haven’t been introduced formally yet–that’s a few reasons–dining with
them could have been so awkward. Don’t judge me though for it was the first
time in seven years to refuse kindness–it wasn’t about fighting shy of an
invitation.
