    This is why I pause after someone says “What?”

    Then they look at me puzzled when I don’t repeat it.

        I usually do this anyway to a certain extent, at least I kinda rephrase what I said, in case them asking ‘what’ wasn’t because they didn’t hear me but because they didn’t understand. Then if their brain does catch up they get two different versions of my message :)
