41

I waited in the end bathroom stall for Melanie. I had her money in my hand.

She came in and snapped it out of my hand, not saying a single word.

She went to leave but I called her back.

"Melanie?"

"What?"

"I'm sorry"

She turned and looked at me "You're sorry?"

"I accused you in the wrong. I jumped to conclusions before finding real facts. And I'm sorry. I know who it is who's been texting me me now"

Melanie looked at me with a look on her face I couldn't decipher "It's uh...okay. I guess. I've never been apologised to before"

"Well, I'm apologising to you now"

She stood awkwardly, her tough demeanour vanished "Well uh, yeah it's okay I forgive you"

"Okay good"

She slowly walked away, not knowing how to feel.

I breathed out a sigh of relief. Now, all that's left to do is find out the truth.
