She rejected me but spent the whole day with me—does she just want friendship?

Do you think there is a chance for improvement, or for her feelings to change towards me? Is it over, or does she just need more time? Will pursuing her work, or is it better to stay just friends? Two weeks ago, I met a girl in one of my classes. I was too shy to ask her out directly at the time, so I sent her a romantic proposal through a mutual friend. She kindly declined, saying she just ended a relationship and, although she thinks I’m a great guy, she isn't ready for anything new.

I respected her space and didn't contact or see her for two weeks. Yesterday, I ran into her in class. I asked her about an assignment, and she answered with a genuine, warm smile. We ended up taking a walk together after class. I sang a song to her in her native language; she was surprised and seemed to really enjoy it, asking me how I knew that song. We spent the day together, walked around the city, and had coffee. By the end of the day, she gave me her number and sent me a song link on WhatsApp.

This morning, I sent her a "good morning" text and told her I liked the song she sent, which she seemed happy about. However, whenwhen I asked if we could text this evening, she reminded me that she is aware of my previous romantic interest and reiterated that she is not looking for a romantic relationship.

I’m struggling to understand the situation. Did I make a mistake by continuing to pursue this after she told me she wasn't ready? Did I cross a line or act inappropriately by spending the day with her and then messaging her again?
