Can you spell I'm sorry in black and white stones? Lower your defenses. Offer no resistance and lose by fifty mokus.
Hikaru would, if it would make Akira forgive him.
But this isn't how things stand between them - it would only add insult to injury.
So he kneels in front of the goban, lays down his fan, and proceeds to play the best go he's ever played.
It's a fierce, epic game. Hikaru wins.
When it's over, Akira thanks him like he means it.
Later on, back home, he'll thank him again.
(It turns out Akira was terribly sorry, too.)
