How to start rebuilding? - 2

[Hoju]

Got a text from W this morning saying she wouldn't be able to come get the swing on Monday like she had planned and asked if i would be home wednesday. I told her I would be and asked if she needed any help. She then asked if I still played hockey on tuesday nights, so I replied "if you don't want me there just say so.", she replies with "i just don't want to be in your way". I just said "you wouldn't be, just let me know when and if i should disappear for an hour, what ever is easier for you"

I know it's mind reading but she doesn't want me there because it's OM who is helping her. I'm just curious as to why she doesn't just ask if I could make myself scarce for an hour.
