Why did Kaka Mahajani's friend feel 'restless' after his encounters with Sai Baba regarding Dakshina?

The friend had initially resolved not to give any Dakshina to Sai Baba. During their visits to the mosque, as detailed in Chapter 35, Baba specifically asked Kaka Mahajani for Dakshina on two separate occasions—once in the morning and again for seventeen rupees in the afternoon before their departure. However, Baba pointedly asked for nothing from the friend. This deliberate exclusion, especially after the friend had already broken his vow not to bow, made him feel restless. His initial detachment was replaced by an unease, suggesting a desire to participate or be acknowledged by Baba in the same way his friend was, which contrasted sharply with his original conditions for visiting.
