"That's not a knot, I thought"

What are you doing?

tying my shoes

Need help?

You would tie my shoes?

I would not knot them.

Oh, you won't?

oh, No, I would knot if you want.

I'm surprised, is all.

I don't offer this lightly.

So you wouldn't tie a knot for anyone else, but for me you would not?

Right.

Oh I wouldn't.

What?

I would not knot wood.
