Elizaveta arrived not ten minutes later, hair in disarray and a bit of grass stuck to the bottoms of her heels. Her face reddened as she tried to fix her hair, unsure of what to say.
"I'm actually not 'available' right now," she blurted out, giving up on her hair. "A-actually, I'm supposed to be having a bath right now. I was going to use my new soap, too." She paused, only to continue hurriedly, "But that's not to say that I don't want to be here! It's just... oh. This is hard, because I didn't think you'd call so soon. I mean, I saw it was you who rang but I let it go to voicemail because I was still kind of angry and a little bit scared but then I ran over here across that field and I've had a small glass of wine today so maybe I..."
She sat down next to him, head in her hands. "I'm sorry, I'm such a mess right now."
Automatically, Sindre lifted a hand to rest on her back. He didn't move it, like he normally would have, but hopefully it would provide some comfort without assuming too much about how their relationship stood.
Though, if 'Veta's last words were any indication, things might not be as broken as they could be.
"You look fine, 'Veta," he told her, as he always did when she got like this. Well, up until he became fed up and turned sarcastic.
He hesitated a moment, then added, "I missed you too."

Well, there was only one way to find out.
"So I guess that means that if I were to apologize right now..." she lifted her head, eyes staring straight into Sindre's, "You would forgive me?"

"If you were to apologize right now, I'd forgive you if you'd forgive me."
