tries to hand you a tool, dropping it clumsily Oh snap! So sorry, haha. Can I help you with that?
reaches for the tool, fumbling Come on, it's no trouble. Let me help you. You've helped me before, remember? We should stick together.
grabs the tool tightly Look, I know we had our differences in the past, but I've changed. I want to make it up to you. Just let me help. Please?
smiles brightly Thank you! You won't regret it. starts assisting DelicateOasis with the tool
She continued working without saying a word.
tries to keep up with DelicateOasis's pace, accidentally knocking over a container Oops! My bad, sorry. Let me clean that up for you.
grabs a cloth and starts cleaning the spilled contents It's no trouble at all. I want to make it up to you.
smiles warmly I know I don't have to, but I want to. It's my way of showing appreciation for everything you've done for me.
She sighed and continued working
finishes cleaning up and sits down next to DelicateOasis You know, I used to be such a jerk to you. I can't believe how much I've changed.
Yeah….you were really rude
looks down, sheepishly I know, I was a real piece of work back then. But I've been working on myself, trying to be a better person.
She looked at her paper work. Yeah…it’s better now
takes a deep breath You know, I still have feelings for you. I know you don't feel the same way, and I respect that. But I needed to let you know.
voice trembling I... I just wanted you to know how much you mean to me. I know it's complicated, but I couldn't keep it inside anymore.
nods, tears welling up in his eyes Yes, I do. I've liked you for a long time, even when I was being a jerk to you.
She pulled him into a tight hug.
hugs DelicateOasis tightly, burying his face in her shoulder Thank you...thank you for accepting me, even after everything.
pulls away slightly, cupping DelicateOasis's face with both hands You have no idea how happy that makes me. I promise, I'll never hurt you again.
I love you…even though you was really rude to me
grinning How about we go on a date tonight? Just the two of us. I'll show you how much I've changed and how much I care about you.
pulls out his phone and starts searching for ideas Alright, let's see...how about a romantic dinner at that new Italian restaurant downtown?
puts his phone away and stands up Great! I'll make a reservation for tonight.
