  12. The women doesn´t understand the meaning or sense of the utterance because she think many possibilities of this context. Other example is when I'm a long time lying on my bed and my mom asks me if ''I'm comfortable" and I answer very happy that '' YES''

"We need to talk" is a setence with impact, She could imagine a lot of options, her mind was concern. But The really situacion was good
