    It took me a while to fall asleep last night, I felt really bad after being rude to Iris yesterday. This morning she still hasn't said a word towards me which I deserve, I shouldn't have taken out my frustration on her she was there to help me feel better which I took for granted. We have made eye contact throughout the morning but no words have been spoken. I'm trying to come up with a good apology and not try to make it sound forced.

   We were heading to Japan early to spend some extra time there since Iris had told me earlier this month that she has always wanted to go and I wanted her first time to be special. We were going to go skiing, walk around the cities, go shopping anything she wanted to do I was going to take her.

    We were getting on the plane P sitting with Ris as I sat a little farther away so Iris can have her space. I kept thinking about my apology, picking at my skin on the side of my nails debating on if I should wait for us to get there or just do it now. The longer I wait the more shitty I feel about my actions, which I should feel.

   Standing up wiping my palms on my pants before walking to Iris and P "Hey Iris can I talk to you really quick, you stay here Poppy" telling Iris then looking down at P for her to stay in her seat. Looking back up at Iris to see what her reaction is, seeing her just stare at me blankly with no expression hurt a bit. She stood up and walked with me to where I was previously sitting on the plane.

    Iris sat in front of me waiting impatiently for me to start talking to her, she wanted to be anywhere else but in front of me. "Hurry up Verstappen" I heard and saw her blurt out.

   Leaning forward a bit to try to keep my voice a bit more hushed so P couldn't hear much "I just wanted to say I'm sorry, I truly am" I started off, seeing her expressionless face still before continuing. "I was an asshole a dick all of the above. Just because I was frustrated doesn't mean I should have taken it out on you" I told her looking down a bit, afraid of her reaction.

    Looking back up seeing her face soften a bit and her brows scrunch together. Her mouth open then close as I watched her, she wanted to say something. She finally came up with the words "I understand you were frustrated Max, but I will not tolerate being talk to like that under any circumstance. I was there to help you but you" she said but then paused for a second "you made me feel less than, like burden almost. Even if it doesn't seem that serious. I want you to feel better or to take your mind off of what bothers you" she told me honestly, making me feel more shitty about the way I acted.

    She reached forward grabbing my hand, making me glance up at her "I accept your apology Max, I won't say it's okay because it's not, but I do accept it". Giving my hand a squeeze she stood up giving me a kiss on my forehead then walking back to her seat. This girl will be the death of me officially, anytime she kisses my head, cheek, plays with my hair I can't get it out of my head.

....

    Arriving in Japan Iris was to excited to contain her excitement, every time we passed something she would get even more excited which was really cute. We dropped our stuff off at the hotel before we decided to check out the shops here.

    Walking in and out of shops exploring the city, we passed by this one shop and I can tell Iris has been eyeing this one dress inside it was plain black but gorgeous, it would be gorgeous on her. As she walked out with P I bought the dress for her before running to catch up to them. Catching up slightly walking a couple steps behind them "What took you so long" she chuckled out as she turned her head slightly to look at me.

     "Nothing just needed to purchase something for someone" I told her truthfully before she turned around all the way confused. Watching her look down at the bag before back up at me shaking her head.
