I didn’t speak Mandarin on the flight to Shanghai

“Do you want rice or noodles?”

I don’t understand her but
she is expecting an answer;
should I be offended?

“Do you want rice or noodles?”

I’m not sure what she said,
her accent is too heavy;
she is still expecting.

“…”

She gives me noodles.

. . .

She comes back later
and asks the man next to me
if he wants chocolate or vanilla ice cream.

She places a chocolate on my tray,
without asking.
