She knew he was standing on the other side of the closed door. She'd formed her words to hurt him, to get back for how badly his actions had hurt her.

So she opened the door and saw him still there, ache and betrayal and regret in his eyes.

How many times do I have to try to tell you, she thought, that I'm sorry for the things I've done?

She couldn't say anything, nor could she stop her own sorrow. A hand reached for his. He squeezed in return. They stood there in silence, for neither could explain why.
