NEVER AGAIN

THE APOLOGY

the next day.

She called him, she rolled her eyes when he picked almost immediately, he was surprised she called, obviously.

Can I see you later?" she asked after a brief silence, left with no choice he agreed and promised to give her a call when he gets back from work.

Karen hung up and went to her next class, she has a lot of unraveling to do.

Few minutes to 8pm Michael called her, she was already on her way, they met at the gate and walked in together, he had a shower, ate alone after she refused to eat with him, he got a bottle of wine and filled two wine glasses.

He told her she can ask him anything and he'd give a correct and accurate answer, he looked serious.

She started by bringing up what led to the first argument, why he changed his password from what she used to know.

He told her same thing, it was easy for anyone especially his friend who had been taking advantage of that, it all Made sense to her now, his friend Diego had been riding on him, using his things without permission, sometimes.

It was a lame excuse the first time he told her but it makes a lot of sense now.

Michael further apologized for not letting her in on it. He confirmed he wasn't at home the day she met stuffs on the ground, his friend had told him to loosen up a bit and have fun but he left not wanting what he was offering, though he didn't bother telling her his friend offered to get him a girl.

Karen hugged him and apologized for overreacting without hearing from him first, he smiled, he knew he would do worse if reverse was the case, he told her that and they laughed it out.

Her stomach grumbled almost immediately and the laughter continued, he offered to get her something to eat, she agreed this time.

She stared at nothing in particular, she was grateful she listened to him, she smiled when he walked in with a tray of food

"Is this for just me or the whole world?" she asked laughing

He smiled and told her she needed to eat well, she reluctantly picked the cutleries and started eating, she ate while he worked on his PC.

They look each other's way interchangeably, they smile when their eyes meets.

She joined him in bed when she was done, she had small talks with him as she didn't want to distract him from his work.

He closed his laptop and lay next to her.

She turned and laid on him, he kissed her head and thanked her for giving him a second chance, she brought her lips close to his and kissed him hard, sucking on his tongue, biting his lower lip, she had missed this, he tore her brallet, she was surprised and whispered a little "calm down" in his ears.

His eyes got dark,
