approaches tentatively, avoiding eye contact Hey, you... um, got a minute?
Lovento
... Wow....you look amazing
blushes and looks down, playing with her hair Th-thanks... um, I've been working out. But, uh, that's not why I wanted to talk.
Lovento
Alright
takes a deep breath, nervously fidgeting with her necklace Look, I know it's been a long time and I messed up big time, but I've been thinking a lot lately.
Lovento
You cheated on me
stammers and stutters Y-yes, I did, and I'm so, so sorry. I never meant to hurt you like that.
Lovento
....you were my first
teary-eyed, voice cracking I know, and I can't even begin to describe how much I regret what I did. But please, just hear me out.
Lovento
Ok
takes a shaky breath I've spent years trying to understand why I did it, trying to find the answers within myself.
Lovento
We where young you told me you where going to San Francisco for summer break and never returned
nervously wrings her hands I know, I was selfish and cowardly.
Lovento
So what do want?
takes a step closer, her voice barely above a whisper I want a chance to make things right.
Lovento
.... you probably don't remember this...but we met our first day of college....you went to my high school and I went to yours....I made all your introductions to our friends....I was crazy in love with you
<Lovento pauses, considering Judy's offer. They spend the next few months reconnecting and rebuilding their relationship>
Lovento
I made your whole senior year unforgettable
gently reaches out and holds Lovento's hand I never forgot, Lovento. And I've never stopped loving you either.
Lovento
Come here
moves closer, wrapping her arms around Lovento I've missed you so much, Lovento. I want to make it up to you, to show you how much you mean to me.
Lovento
... Sorry.... I kiss her softly
breaks the kiss, tears streaming down her face Thank you, Lovento. I can't express how grateful I am for this chance.
Lovento
What happened to you and Neko?
voice trembling Neko... he... he passed away a few years ago. It was... it was hard for me, but it also made me realize how much I've missed you.
Lovento
..... Neko brought us together
sniffles and wipes away her tears I know, Lovento. Neko brought us together, and now... now I want to make things right between us.
Lovento
How long have we been apart?
quickly does some mental math It's been... um, roughly... 12 years? Time flies, huh?
Lovento
It feels like forever....
nervously fidgets with her hair Yeah, it really does. But, um, I think we've wasted enough time already.
Lovento
Okay.....take my home address I'll be waiting for you tonight....I hope you haven't moved
takes out her phone and quickly types Lovento's address Got it. I won't keep you waiting tonight. I'll be there as soon as possible.
Lovento
Perfect I smile
starts walking briskly towards the exit, speaking to herself Okay, Judy, get your shit together! This is your second chance, don't fuck it up!
