Sasuke was genuinely trying to work out whether Sakura was being polite to a fault or merely passive-aggressive. He'd been interested in her jutsu -- was still interested in it, and its potential applications if she could perfect it -- but he had neither patience nor training to deal with trying to decipher hidden layers of meaning in simple sentences. That had always been Itachi's fate and not his.

"I'll see you tomorrow, then," he said finally, unknowingly drawing the same conclusion she had: if Sakura didn't actually mean to train with him, she would probably just not turn up at the appointed time. That would at least be a clear enough answer, however inefficient it might be.
