Kane stood and left, giving us privacy. Sarah also tactfully retreated to a distance. "What are you doing here?" I asked calmly. Damon got down on his knees before me. "I came to apologize and make amends." "Stand up." I frowned. "This looks pathetic." "No, I have to kneel," he said through tears. "Elena, I know I made unforgivable mistakes. I was blinded, fooled, and I hurt the one person I should never have hurt." I looked at him, my heart unmoved.

“Not even the hard parts.” His expression softened. “Neither would I.” The city outside darkened, lights blinking on one by one. “You know,” I said, “for a long time, I thought your billion-dollar mistake was Ivy.” He raised an eyebrow. “But it wasn’t,” I continued. “It was thinking you could build everything alone.” He exhaled slowly. “You’re right.” “And mine”, I added, “was thinking I didn’t deserve more.” We stood there, truths laid bare, the past finally resting where it belonged.

they replied in unison, their voices echoing in the small room, a moment they would both remember for different reasons. “Do you, Dylan Blackwood, take Emily Green to be your lawfully wedded wife?” the clerk began, her monotone voice nearly drowning out the weight of the moment. "Dylan?" Emily echoed in confusion, glancing nervously at him. "Daryl," he feigned correction, a disarming smile plastered on his face. “The clerk must have made a mistake in reading my handwriting,” he lied with practiced ease.

I realized he was having a hard time accepting his mistakes . " I was so drown in my work as I wanted to make things beautiful and perfect for us ... I wanted to provide you with the greatest riches of the world but I couldn't see how we were drawing apart ....you did admit to marry me giving me a chance but I just ruined the opportunity ... if it wasn't for the accident I guess I wouldn't have realized how precious you are to me " he kept all his mistakes bare to me .

Her words trailed off, her sentence left hanging in the air as she grappled to make sense of the situation that had unfolded before her. Levi's voice cut through her words, his tone a mixture of regret and determination. "It was a mistake," he admitted, his voice carrying a note of self-blame. "It won't happen again." His gaze held a mixture of resolve and vulnerability, as if seeking to convey his sincere intention to rectify the situation.

We went inside and he helped me sit in the bumper car. "Hey!" I shouted when he crashed to my car. "Sorry, I'm not an expert." He said, Teasing me. I rolled my eyes, psh! He knew how to drive a freaking car! I just smiled at him and also crashed into his car. He wasn't angry with me, he even smiled at me! I crashed his car again. “Sorry! I didn't mean it! ” I said while laughing. “Ok, stop it, Ayla. It’s dangerous. ”

"Well, I just thought that we would be together now that mom and I are back." "Uh, what do you mean?" "Well you guys said you were off getting really smart so you could take care of yourself. But that night I heard mommy crying in the kitchen to grandma about a mistake." "What else did you hear buddy?" "Just stuff like 'I should of done better' 'I should of stayed and fought for him' but I wasn't sure who mommy was talking about." I knew exactly what she was talking about. I didn't think my heart could break anymore, but it did.

I resist the urge to get up on my feet as I confront him. He holds out his hands as if in surrender. "I was going to tell you. I just didn't know how I was going to present it to you. I'm really sorry," he trails off at the end. "I don't give a shit about how sorry you are. What was your damn motive when you did this to me?" His eyes were shut close for a while. When he opens them, he sighs and then says, "It was a mistake." I find myself nodding as if in understanding of what he just told me, meanwhile it was something entirely different.

Crying out all of my mistakes. All the mistakes of my past.
