I asked him , and he said no . I did n't call it a date . I did n't even think of it as a date . I just did n't want to go alone , and I figured a book festival would be something that he 'd enjoy too .

Question: What might be different if he said yes ?
Answer: They would have to go aloneHe would enjoy the book festivalHe would n't enjoy the book festivalIt would be a date
