When I kindly ask people to leave.
They stay put.
When I urge people to go away.
They don't move a foot.
When I yell at people to leave,
They request more respect from me.
When I say yelling is the only way to get their attention.
They stubbornly disagree.
When I apologize for my behaviour and again kindly ask them to leave.
They leave, looking funnily at me.
What am I doing wrong?!
"Nothing. They left, and that's what you wanted, right?"
Oh, shut up!
