Overview
If it's not clear what someone wants from you right now, why should you waste your time guessing? Ask them! Going to the source of the confusion is almost always the best way to find clarity. Are you worried you'll look stupid or silly for asking a question? Well, you'll look a lot sillier if you base a decision on an incorrect hunch. Before you go down all sorts of fanciful roads for an explanation, stop. Opt for the most direct approach and just ask them what they want.
