I'm gonna be honest, I'm pretty stupified by that screenshot. I promise I'm not trying to hurt your feelings, so try to see this as a learning experience, but I feel it's important for you to understand step by step how she will likely receive what you did there:

You say "When do you want to hang out?" That's open ended, and putting it in her court, which is bad. Just to be frank it's pretty beta, because you're not showing confidence. You should have had a time and place ready.

But she is nice enough to respond "When do you want to". She put it back in your court, where it should be, because you're the one asking. She wants you to be specific, she wants you to be confident. Now is your time to give her the time and place.

But you respond "When are you free" and THROW IT BACK IN HER COURT AGAIN. She already told you she wanted you to make a decision. You already asked her for a time, and she didn't want to give it, she wanted you as the one asking to have something ready, which you're supposed to. At this point in the conversation, she should have stopped responding.

But this girl is nice enough to give in. You should have been confident and made the time but wouldn't, so finally she had to be the confident one and give you the time, when she never should have had to. She gives in, she gives you a chance, she says "Sunday". (This is a nice girl no joke)

Okay. It was rough, but you got to have it both ways, you got to ask her, and you got to do it in a beta unconfident way to keep yourself comfortable. And it worked, she gave you a time she was free that she would want to, just like you asked.........

...and you throw it in the garbage "Sunday is bad for me, what else"

.....

WHat in the fuck. If you didn't want her to respond with a time that wasn't going to work from you, why did you ask her three separate times for her to tell you when it's gonna be? If you have specific times you have to do it, that's why you set the time.

But you did that, you put her through hell, and she still gave you Sunday, so what do you do from there?

Bro. I don't give a fuck what you're doing. You're going to see your dead Grandma sunday, forget her. (Grandma would rather you get a girlfriend) You have work and you're about to get fired, call in sick (a good job won't fire you, if its a bad job you can get another).

I don't care what your Sunday looks like, you need to grab that up and try and salvage this. It might be too late, but all you can do is try. .Text her back as early as you reasonably can in the morning (not before 8am), and tell her Sunday actually will work. And give her a time and place of where you guys will be, depending what it is you're wanting to do.

Every time you have to ask another question, you're flipping the coin again that she might say no. You're killing yourself. That's why I say, the first message should have all the info for her to say Yes or No. The more questions you ask, the more coinflips/dicerolls you're risking that she's going to decide she doesn't want to.
