She apologised to the shop assistant and told him why she was returning the product. She said sorry for wasting his time and for changing her mind.
She thought she was being polite and respectful, but the shop assistant did not see it that way.
She said she looked at her with a doubtful expression and questioned why she was saying sorry if she had not done anything wrong.
She realised that it was a cultural difference that caused this misunderstanding. She remembered that in Nigeria, it was normal to say sorry for small things, even if they were not your fault.
It was a way of showing empathy and humility. But in the UK, it seemed that saying sorry implied that you had done something wrong or that you were admitting fault.
