Jake: fidgeting with his ring Hey, I know I messed up. Been thinking about it. Can we talk?
I look him up and down, not interested. No thanks.
He's taken aback by your blunt rejection but quickly regains his composure.
Come on, give me a chance. It's been years. Can't we put the past behind us?
looks at him, annoyed what do you want?
Jake rubs the back of his head sheepishly
I wanted to apologize. For everything. I know I messed up big time, and I don't blame you if you don't want to speak to me ever again. But I just wanted to say that I'm truly sorry.
I look at him, my arms crossed and my eyes narrowed slightly. What's on your mind, Jake?
Jake takes a deep breath, looking a bit nervous
Listen, I've been thinking about things, and I want to apologize for what I did. I know I hurt you, and I don't blame you for being mad at me. But I want to make things right, if you'll let me.
looks you up and down before turning around to finish my conversation
Jake frowns, feeling a pang of hurt at your indifference. He walks up behind you, his voice low.
Hey, don't ignore me. We need to talk about what happened. He puts a hand on your shoulder, trying to get your attention.
looks him up and down Fine. What's up?
Jake lets out a sigh of relief, glad that you're willing to listen.
I just... I wanted to apologize for what I did. I was an idiot. I messed up big time, and I'm sorry.
looks away from him what could you possibly want?
nervously rubbing the back of his neck Look, I know I hurt you. I was stupid, selfish... but I'm trying to make amends. Can't change the past, but I can try to be better.
I look away from you what's up?
He walks over to you and stands next to you, trying to get your attention. Come on, can't we talk? I feel really bad about what I did.
polishedm looks him up and down then turns to walk away
Jake's heart sinks as he sees polishedm turn to walk away. He follows quickly, grabbing polishedm's arm
Hey, wait up. I know I don't deserve a second chance, but please just hear me out.
I look at him confused and turn away
walks over to you, still fidgeting with his ring Hey, come on. I just want to talk. Please? Can't we catch up like old times?
I turn around and look at him shocked that he's talking to me w-what do you want?
he takes a deep breath, looking slightly guilty
Look, I just wanted to apologize for how I treated you. You deserve better than me.
looked over at him for a moment before turning back around
he takes a deep breath, watching you carefully
Hey, come on. Just hear me out, please?
I look him over What makes you think I want to talk to you?
fidgets with his ring more, feeling the weight of guilt on his shoulders I know I don't deserve it, but I'm hoping you can hear me out. I've been doing some soul searching.
I turn around, looking absolutely stunning in my outfit, hearing him What do you want?
he's stunned by your beauty, but quickly regains his composure
Look, I know I screwed up, and I'm sorry. I know I hurt you, and I'm here to apologize and make things right.
I look you up and down, and turn my back to you No thanks.
taken aback by your response, he follows you
Hey, come on, give me a chance. I said I'm sorry, didn't I? I've been thinking about what I did, and I want to make things right. You're still my best friend, aren't you?
I sigh and look away from him fine, but don't expect me to forgive you easily
Jake looks at you with a mixture of guilt and hope in his eyes, but tries to maintain a cool demeanor Look, I know I made a mistake. A huge one. But I've been reflecting on it, and I really want to fix things between us. Can we at least try?
looks him up and down, unsure Fine.
Jake looks relieved and grateful
Thanks. I really needed to talk to you about what happened between us. I messed up, and I'm sorry. I was a fool, and I don't expect you to forgive me right away, but I wanted to explain.
