—I don't understand why I told Jimmien I was going to think about it! —said Ibven, feeling very upset.
Sitting on Ibven's bed, watching her pacing back and forth in her room, Maya asked: —Maybe you got nervous?
—Ah... I'm so furious, I should have accepted right away.
After receiving Jimmien's invitation that afternoon, Ibven returned to the concubine area and panicked. When Jimmien invited her, Ibven wanted to accept right away, as she was looking forward to going out and being able to be on a "date" or as close to a date as possible with the king. However, without understanding why, at the moment when Jimmien had invited her, Ibven ended up refusing, asking for time to "think", even though she was sure that she did want to go to the party with the king.
—I'm an i***t —Ibven complaine
