At the library
You ask the librarian where the comic books are. They say, "Not now, one minute."
What could you do?
Three things you could say. None of them is the one right answer; each note says why it fits the moment, or why it may not.
Okay, I will wait here.
A strong fit
It accepts the wait and holds your place where they can see you.
Okay. I will look at the signs.
Also works here
Looking while you wait is fine. You may find them yourself.
Ask louder.
Worth a second look
You can. They heard you. Louder does not make a minute shorter.
What people here usually expect
- One minute usually means they are finishing something. It is not a no.
- Waiting where they can see you is normal.
- Looking at signs while you wait is fine.
Your words
Write one line you could say when someone asks you to wait a minute.
In the app you write one line here and it lands in your lines. Nothing is graded.
The move this moment practises: After a “not now”.
