No, don't apologize. It's my fault for not saying anything sooner. I would have if I knew you..

I'm sorry, Asami. I really really am.

No, please don't be. It's not your fault, really.

[And she doesn't blame him. Not for anything. She should have said something sooner...

But now isn't the time for 'what ifs.']

I just... don't want anything to be awkward. Promise it won't be?

[greenspirals]

It won't be. I don't want it to be. You are one of my closest friends, Asami. I'd hate for you not to be apart of my life.

Thank you... [She takes a deep breath. She appreciates Gippal not making a big deal out of her mistake. It means a lot more than she can really say.]

I... I guess I'll talk to you later, then? [She still wants to spend time with him, even if only as friends.]

Voice

[greenspirals]

Yeah..but we can still go out for that lunch, if you want. Me and you still do have to catch up. I want to hear all about what being a CEO was like.

[Asami gives a slight laugh.]

Alright. You might be a little disappointed, it... wasn't exactly a thrilling experience. When are you free?
