so...
her ladyship apologized earlier.

it is times like these
that i've never quite known
how to truly feel
(knowing that it was
a recurring behavior,
a̶s̶ i̶t̶ w̶a̶s̶ i̶n̶ t̶h̶e̶ p̶a̶s̶t̶
c̶o̶u̶p̶l̶e̶ o̶f̶ y̶e̶a̶r̶s̶).

though, her sincerity was
something i could never question.

that was one of the most
endearing things the dukedom
had loved about their lady arlene.

it was all for my sake-

it was because she is
the only one who truly cares-

if everything she does stems
from a place of affection,

does it really have to hurt?
