Happy Mistake Novels & Stories

The woman whose memory I've spent years trying to honor, trying to move past and trying to forget. "Pamela, I . . ." But she's already scrambling out from beneath me and pulling her dress back up with shaking hands. The look on her face is pure devastation mixed with humiliation. I'd just made a fool of her by moaning another woman’s name. Even for me, it's an unforgivable sin. I'm the biggest clown to ever exist. "You don't even see me," she finally says, her voice cracking like she's on the brink of tears. I sit up and try to reach for her, but she jerks away from my touch like it burns. Where do I even start from to explain myself? "It wasn't like that, Pamlea. It was a mistake, I swear t

Still trying to fix it, I messaged again: [Ms. Lawrence, it really was my fault earlier. I didn't mean to offend you. I sent you a coffee as an apology. Could you please help me check my payroll issue?]

I know I made a mistake, and I was a monster in the past. I almost lost my mind when you went missing for six months." Hector covered his face as he wept. His tears trickled down his face and onto his shirt, dampening the color. "Please don't abandon me…" He was 6'3", yet he fell to his knees before me while crying. He hugged my legs and begged me to forgive him.

“We can talk about this.” Talk? Something inside me shook. “What is there to talk about?!” I snapped. My voice cracked. “You got another woman pregnant!” My hands trembled. I wanted to hit him. I wanted to scream. “It was a mistake!” he shot back. “You weren’t here. I was lonely!” The words hit me, harder than anything before. And in that moment, I realized he wasn’t sorry for what he did. He was only sorry I found out. But this time,

,he immediately clutched her arm. "My lunch break is over, we have nothing to talk about. I've kept my distance, haven't I? What do you want from me now?" "I was mad and a dick and for that I apologize" "Apologize? Apologize for what? It's true I was hovering around you because unlike everyone who cast you aside, I saw a good man. A man who was punishing himself for a mistake. We all make mistakes, Kevin. You are not the first one to make them-"

I drank all the alcohol from the can and then opened another. "Why?" Mommy sat down in front of me and hugged me. Everything is in turmoil. Lianne didn’t talk to me a month ago. Her parents are mad at me and about Cassandra, I don't know either. I thought that was the only mistake I had made. I was surprised to learn that it wasn't. She got pregnant, and I didn’t know what to do anymore. "Liro, let's talk!" I immediately went to where Lianne was. I want to explain. I want her back. This is a mistake. There is a misunderstanding here.

After so many years, he still hates you. That is his problem." "Unfortunately, some mistakes can never be made up, and some people cannot forgive," Joshua said faintly. Hazel was a bit baffled.

he asked. “Yes” I whispered. “She accused you for forgetting what he did to you both, and she sarcastically reminded you that he was one of your friends who good-naturedly took you to the same pub, added something in your drinks and took obscene pictures of you both and uploaded it in your college website, just ‘cause you dint accept his proposal. I was so shocked hearing that. Why would you come running to help such a person, a person who have done the worst thing possible for you? Your friend, Maggie refused to help him.
