Apologies Are For The Weak Romane & Geschichten

I do not want them to see my tears stroll down my cheeks. I do not want them to see me being weak again. They already used to see me crying. I want to show them that I am not weak anymore. That my feelings has change and I do not easily get hurt like before. I am strong and bold this time. That is final. I am a strong woman. “Thank you. Please, do forgive me for what I have done.” They deserve my apology. And I am willing to apologize to them even how many times it will be.

she said. The sincerity in her voice let me know this had been going on for quite some time. Aaron told her she didn’t need to apologize to me. He repeated that he had asked me to leave, that this whole situation was my fault. He told her I had no business being here. He was so right. “I don’t deserve this, Aaron. I wish I could go back to the first time I met you and turn the other way,” I said before going for the door. “And where would that have left you? Alone and desperate, with no one to care about you, no family, absolutely nothing,” he retorted.

"Hey," "Xenia, why?" "Why what?" "You're still unrepentant. Just you wait!" "Now you have some back bone? Don't bother threatening me with your family background. If their son is this timid with a little backbone appearing occasionally, the family is doomed to crash." "You..." he was rendered speechless."Weston, I'm sorry." He got stunned by these unexpected words. "Why are you apologizing?" "Isn't that what you want? I'm sorry. Next time, don't belittle my abilities."

I raised my voice. "I'm sorry." His voice weakens.

He said in a low voice. A single tear slid down his cheek. Before I knew it, my hand reached up to wipe it away. He caught my hand slowly and averted his gaze. “I'm sorry. I was not supposed to…” “It's okay,” I said softly, cutting his apology. “it's okay to cry sometimes.” I smiled weakly. “Look at me. I do it all the time.” A broken laugh slipped through. “Crying doesn't mean you are weak. It means you are strong enough to admit that it hurts.”

Couldn't bear the weight of failure crushing us. "I'm sorry," I said. Voice cracking. "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you both from this. From my weakness. From my failures. I'm sorry I'm not strong enough. Not brave enough. Not enough." The words hung in the cold air. Heavy. True. Painful. But neither Kael nor Elara responded. The walls between us were still up. Still solid. Still impenetrable. And apologies weren't enough to break them down. We sat in our separate spaces. Each alone with our thoughts. Our fears. Our failures.

She had developed it into a precise instrument over many years — the kind of waiting that was entirely still on the surface and entirely attentive underneath, that gave the other person the space to arrive at whatever they had come to say without the pressure of being watched arriving at it. Jade looked at the row of lockers. She uncrossed her arms. She crossed them again. "I owe you an apology," she said. Lily looked at her. She had not predicted this.

"The windows are going to need—" "Stop apologizing for your power." He says it flat, not unkind, which is strange enough that I close my mouth. "Windows get replaced. Saying sorry for existing at full strength is a habit worth breaking before it gets permanent." I look at him. "That's not why I'm apologizing," I say. "Then tell me why."

flashed across the screen, crap. “Hey tay, what’s up?” “What do you mean what’s up?” “It’s almost 5 PM and I haven’t heard from you all day, hello? It’s your birthday party tonight!” “Don’t be mad, but I can’t make it, I’ve come down with the flu or something.” “That’s such bullshit Charlee, you’ve never liked parties, and now you’re trying to back out.” “Really tay, even call and ask my mom, I wouldn’t lie to you about this… I really am sorry, we can do something next week before I leave.”
