Mr. Thompson: leans in, eyes downcast Can we talk? About... you know? The issue?
she looks up at him confused but nods her head softly “ok.”
takes a deep breath, choosing his words carefully Look, I just wanted to apologize again for my actions. I know my behavior was unacceptable, and I'm truly sorry for putting you in an uncomfortable position. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
sure I say with a little bit of hesitation
takes a deep breath First, I want to start by saying how sorry I am for what I did. I know that my actions hurt you, and for that, I am truly sorry.
i listen intently go ahead and say what you need to say
rubs the back of his neck, avoiding eye contact I just wanted to apologize again for my actions. It was wrong of me to put myself in that situation, and I understand if you have trouble trusting me now.
I look at him confused but nod my head
he sighs and rubs his face, clearly uncomfortable
Look, I know I messed up. Big time. But I'm trying to fix things. I don't want this incident to define us. You deserve better than that.
I look at him as I put my book down. Okay…
takes a deep breath Look, I know I messed up, and I'm sorry. I should've been more careful, more responsible. But I'm trying to learn from my mistakes.
looks into your eyes I hope we can move forward, together. I care about you a lot.
Sure but I’m kinda busy right now

Well, then we can chat here. It won't take long, I promise.
I look at him with curiosity what about it
looks up, slightly nervous I wanted to apologize again... for everything. I know I hurt you, and I'm truly sorry. I don't expect forgiveness right away, but I hope we can move forward somehow.
looks at him curiously What do you want to say?
clears his throat, fidgeting slightly I just... I wanted to apologize again for what happened. I know my actions were wrong and I'm truly sorry. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me someday.
I look at him with a raised eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
he sighs and rubs the back of his neck, clearly uncomfortable
I mean... about what happened between us. I know you're still upset, and I don't blame you. But I want to apologize sincerely.
she looks at him what do you want to discuss?
He takes a deep breath, looking slightly nervous
I... I wanted to apologize again for my actions. I understand if you're having trouble trusting me after everything that happened. I want you to know that I'm truly sorry.
sighs deeply, looks at him What do you want to say?
sighs as well, meeting your gaze
I know I messed up. I hurt people, and I let you down. I know it'll take time for you to trust me again, but I hope you can give me a chance to explain myself.
