187 First quarrel (3)

When Felix took a step away from Sophia without a word, she felt her heart ache. Sophia can tell that he is hurt, but she does not understand why. 'Isn't he overreacting?' But she remembered that they agreed they will talk things through. That is the only rule they agreed about their relationship, that they will communicate. She can only guess what is in his mind, but she knows what is in hers. And it's her duty to share with him her thoughts.

Sophia took a deep breath. "OK. Me first... When I saw you surrounded by all those women in cafeteria... I was hurt... I guess I was jealous. And I wanted you to feel the pain I felt, so I told you to come to my office while telling my secretary not to let you in." Sophia heard herself and thought how childish she acted. "I'm sorry. It was immature of me to act like that." She looked at him intently.

Felix didn't react.

"Did you hear me? I said I'm sorry... this is the part where you say that you forgive me."
