"I was busy earlier and just saw your message," Brandon explained.

"I understand. Are you free tonight?" I asked.

Brandon replied, "What time?"

I didn't mean anything by it; I just found it funny. But when Brandon didn't respond, I realized my words might have been misunderstood.

"No, I didn't mean anything by that," I quickly explained. Then I added, "I'll come pick you up."
