For me this is a cool strategy.

Always saying "Sorry no I'm not very busy I will do it soon" keeps whetting the appetite, but it's more gentle than a clear "Nope!".
Because he (like most others) knows well that if he says "Nope" he might get bugged the way like "Come on, couldn't you rethink your decision again? Pleeease!"

I don't care what you guys think, but for me this is a 99% "no", just expressed a little niftier, that's all.
