So since this bank clerk was a complete stranger to the British girl, she was very surprised, and quickly said that she had eaten already. After this she went to school and was even more surprised when one of the teachers asked her the same question. By mow she realized that it could be an invitation, but was puzzled about why they asked it. In the following days she was asked the same question again and again, and she spent many hours trying to work out why so many people kept asking her this. Finally she came to a conclusion: the people must be concerned about her health. She was rather thin at the time, and so she concluded they must be worrying that she was not eating properly!
