Questions Masquerading as Statements
Sometimes even direct questions are tricky because they can look like statements, and the only way to tell your reader otherwise is to add a question mark (1). There's a big difference in meaning between “He went to the store.” and “He went to the store?” Yet the only difference between the two sentences is that one ends with a period and one ends with a question mark. The question mark makes it a direct question that shows surprise. What the heck was he doing at the store?"

I will remember! :{D, thanks for clearing me out, btw. it wasn't a good idea, trying to show you a mistake in your grammar, since you are English, and I'm Polish :P
