Phillip walks into a patient's room and lets out a big sigh and asks, "Is there anything you need?" The patient wanted a drink but responded," No, I guess not; I wouldn't want to bother you." What is the MOST likely reason that the patient responded in this manner?

Phillip asked the patient in a threatening way.

Phillip's words did not communicate that he was willing to get the patient something.

Phillip's non-verbal communication made the patient feel like she was an inconvenience so she didn't ask.

The patient must have seen something written in the chart that said she could not have water.
