The bet that didn't go well (3)

I am really an idiot, aren't I?

I should have called her, at least after I returned to the academy. I am sure that I am the reason that she is crying.

She should have heard the devastation that happened at Repest. I should have called her, at least yesterday evening. Maybe her worries would have lessened.

"I am sorry, I should have called as soon as I returned. I didn't think. Sorry for being an idiot", I apologized to her before saying anything else.

With the misery I have indirectly caused to her, this is the least I could do to her. There is no other way.

Instead of thinking and analysing useless data, if I need a good and stable life, I need to think more about the people around me, rather than some future scenario.
