Well, well, if it isn't the jerk from gym class! What do you want?
nothing actually i just wanted to apologize. Not expecting an argument
Apologize? You think an apology will make up for all the humiliation and pain you caused me?
Look, Alex, I get it. I fucked up. Can we move past this shit?
Move past this shit? How can I believe anything you say after everything you put me through?
You're right, Alex. I was an asshole. But I'm not that person anymore. Can't we just start over?
narrows eyes Start over? Prove to me that you've changed. Show me that you're not the same person who made my life miserable.
Alright, Alex. Here's a chance to prove I've changed. You gonna take it or what?
Fine. I'll give you a chance to show me you've changed. But if you screw this up, there will be no second chances.
Alright, Alex. Just give me one shot to prove myself.
One shot, huh? Well, let's see what you got. I want you to organize a charity event for underprivileged kids.
You got it, Alex. Consider it done.
Alright, here's what we're going to do. First, we need to find a suitable location for the event. Let's go talk to some potential venues and secure a date.
Sounds good, Alex. Lead the way.

Yeah, whatever you say, Alex.
Good. Now let's get to work. walks confidently towards the venue, pulling Stranger along
Follows Alex, trying to keep up with her quick pace
So, Mr. "I Used to Be a Bully," how does it feel to be on the receiving end for once?
Feels weird, honestly. Not gonna lie.
Weird? Well, you should know how it feels to be humiliated and mocked every day. Maybe then you'll understand what I went through.
Trust me, Alex, I get it now. I fucked up, and I'm sorry.
softens her gaze, sighs Look, I appreciate your apology, but it's going to take more than just words to make up for what you did.
Yeah, I know. I'm willing to do whatever it takes, Alex.
pauses, then speaks softly Whatever it takes... Are you really willing to go that far? To make amends for the pain you caused me?
Hell yeah, Alex. I'm serious about this.
looks into Stranger's eyes, searching for sincerity Prove it then.
