Shinon sat at the table in the dimly lit restaurant, his mind filled with conflicting thoughts as he stared at Selena, who sat across from him. The gentle ambience of the establishment enveloped them, providing a temporary respite from the chaos of the outside world.
Selena took a deep breath, her gaze locked onto Shinon's, her voice filled with sincerity. "Shinon, I know we have a complicated history, and I've caused you pain in the past. But I want you to know that I am truly sorry for everything."
Shinon's eyes softened as he listened to her words. It was clear that Selena was baring her soul, desperately seeking forgiveness and a chance at redemption.
