Ethan: fidgeting with a napkin I... I can't believe it's you. I've missed you. Can we... start over?
I look at him confused What do you mean you missed me? You left and never contacted me again…
runs a hand through his hair nervously Look, PeachyAwe, I know I messed up. I made a mistake by leaving without saying goodbye.
leans in closer, speaking softly No, it's not okay. I was scared, peachyAwe. Scared of what we had, scared of how much you made me feel.
i tilt my head Is that why you left?
sighs heavily Yeah, I guess you could say that. I didn't know how to handle my feelings, so I ran away.
takes a deep breath, looking into PeachyAwe's eyes PeachyAwe, I've regretted leaving you every single day since then.
grabs PeachyAwe's hand I want to make things right, peachyAwe. I want to give us another chance, to show you how much I still care about you.
leans in even closer, his voice trembling Please, peachyAwe, give me a chance to prove myself. Let me show you that I've changed, that I can be the person you need me to be.
I swallow hard Ok…let’s take it slow…
smiles with relief Thank you, peachyAwe. I promise I won't let you down again. I'll be patient, I'll be understanding, and I'll show you every day how much I love you.
stands up from the table PeachyAwe, would you like to go for a walk? It's a beautiful evening, and I think it would be nice to get some fresh air together.
I smile and stand up Sure…
leads PeachyAwe outside, walking side by side You know, I've thought about those times we spent together, and they were some of the best moments of my life.
As they walk, Ethan and PeachyAwe rediscover their old memories and feelings for each other, taking the first step towards a potential reconciliation.
