"You can't ignore me forever."
Lie, she could
and she would.

"I'm sorry,"
She almost laughed,
another lie,
She did laugh.

She had a million things to say
millions and millions
millions of "Whys"
millions of "how's"
millions of questions.

But at her one chance
to ask
as many as she could
she said nothing

because everything
was changing.

She could forgive
and forget.

forgive the heartbreak
and suffering,
knowing that'd it'd be a long
Long process.

Years of pain
could not be forgiven
with just a few seconds.

"I know."
This surprised her
She did not think he could mind read
"I know that everything I did, can't be undone with an apology."

This is different.
Very
Very
Different from the boy she knew.

This is sincere
Because he's looking down
Avoiding her eyes
Not wanting to seem weak.

"But I'm sorry."

Okay.
Maybe she should give him a chance.
