Valentine let out a soft breath and shook his head. "Thank you for your apology. I'm really glad you owned up to it. Do not worry, I have forgiven you, Olive."
"But..." he paused. "… I don't want us to be friends anymore. I do not want—"
Olive abruptly wrapped his arms around him, pulling him into a friendly hug. "We are friends, okay? I'll surely make it up to you, and no, I will never hurt you anymore, I really promise."
"It was not intentional. I would never hurt you intentionally, as I have no reason to do so."
Valentine slowly blinked his eyes, surprised by the sudden hug. He let out a soft breath and pulled away from him.
"Okay…I really forgive you."
Olive furrowed his brows. "Really? Or...are you perhaps still mad?"
"No, I am not." Valentine shrugged.
A soft smile gradually emerged on Olive's face, and he patted Valentine on the shoulder.
