"Even if I wasn't the only problem, I'm hereby accepting responsibility for what happened." He let out a pretty good-sized exhalation with that. It was clear that it wasn't really all that easy for him to say. Nevertheless, it was also obvious that he had needed to say it. Stretching a bit, he looked back toward her and focused on the issue at hand. "If there was anything for me to forgive from you, then I hereby forgive it." Immediately his glance shot back instead toward Reba, however. It was her that he figured he had owed the biggest apology to, considering what had happened. More than anything else, he had been given cause to feel guilt heavily over that. "Would it pain us all to say that we loved each other?" It was clear that it wasn't exactly easy for him to say that either.
