"I'm sorry again, Dani, if I was late. My work piled up since we had been away for a week." He tried to apologize again when they were already seated in his car.
He felt so awful when he knocked on her apartment door, forgetting about the flowers in his haste and then coming late. He did not want to use his work as an excuse for neglecting his obligation to her, especially when they were barely dating for a week.
"Don't worry about it. I was a bit late too. I thought you were already waiting for me when I arrived home. Fortunately, you also ran late. Let's call this even." She did not want to blame him for something that she was also guilty of doing.
"Thanks for understanding. I thought that you were mad at me when you did not answer my calls and messages." He felt relieved hearing that she did not mind his tardiness.
