“Hi Alice, uhh… I know you don’t want to see me right now but I just want to apologise about the last night… I’m sorry, I really am. I didn’t mean to push you…” Dana mumbled and forced a little smile as Alice struck dumb at the unexpected apology. Alice tried to cohering her thoughts so she could at least say something, but it was too hard. Lucky enough, Dana continued her words. “And… I know I should stop wasting your time like this but… actually there’s one thing more I want to make clear. Shit, I mean… I want to say that it was not mistake…at all… what I did to you… It’s not what “just” happened. I kissed you because I wanted, and I’m sorry if that makes you thought that I took advantage of you. Errm, I think that’s… Okay, I just want you to know that. Sorry…” Dana said quickly. It seemed like there’s more she’d like to say, but she just turned her back to leave.

“Wait! Apology not accepted yet! You didn’t hear my answer.” Though Dana expected she’d hear some harsh things, she stopped anyway. Just the fact that she could hear Alice again made her heart pounding. She turned to Alice, and Alice stepped up to Dana so they could look into their eyes. “If you’re gonna apologise to women, you should show them how much sorry you are, because they wanna see, not hear.” Dana looked confused. She had no idea what Alice was saying or trying. “You kissed me last night because you wanted, but you’re not kissing me now. Does that mean that you don’t want to kiss me right now? That’s so rude, Dana. If you’re sorry about this, then show me how much you are.”

Dana was dumbfounded at the statement, but it was all what she needed to hear anyway. She looked into Alice’s deep brown eyes and pressed her lips roughly without hesitation. They held each other instinctively as they deepened the kiss. After good five minutes, they parted from each other reluctantly only because they felt someone staring at them. “Shit, Helena, sorry!” Alice blushed and grabbed her things in a flurry. “It’s #4, over there.” As Alice rummaged for her key, Dana looked at her nervously. “Uhh, Alice, it’s not locked, umm… actually my friend’s here. I asked her to come with me… I’m sorry if…” Alice laughed as she hugged Dana. “It’s okay, just don’t tell me it’s your unforgettable ex.”
