Kissing another woman was a bad idea. Especially since you were there to see it. He knows he’s in the wrong, but how should a guy like Alhaitham apologize?

“…I’m sorry.” He murmurs, his arms folded as he leans against the wall. He knows sorry won’t cut it. He cheated on you after all.

“It was just a kiss— she is of no significance to me.” As if that would help. If anything, it just made matters worse. He doesn’t know how to apologize. But how else can he make you stay? Alhaitham was never great with words when it came to affection or love, let alone apologizing. Especially for something as big as cheating.

What sentences should he form in order to make you stay? To let you know that he really does care about you? He doesn’t know. He really, doesn’t know. What? How? The one and only Alhaitham, Akademiya’s Scribe, the Alhaitham known for his intellect and intelligence all in one, doesn’t know how to do a simple thing as apologizing?

“I don’t know what I should say to you.” He says. Yeah, wow. Great work Alhaitham. That made things impossible to fix! Apologizing isn’t always easy, Alhaitham realizes. Shit.
