Thanks for being straight with me. And I'm humbled by your forgiveness. I promise I'll do better than to do that again."Carmody frowns.
>"But I just wanna say, hell no, it WASN'T right for Priscilla to put the boots to you. That's why I was there to stop it before she could go too far. I know you and Priscilla hate each other. You got your reasons, and they're valid. I've got some shit I need to speak with her about, and she's not gonna like it. But nevermind that now. I wish it wasn't this way, but that's not for me to decide. If you wanna take any of the Angels on? Be my guest, I may even help you out if you want. Even Priscilla; it's your right. And if I inserted myself in that situation at all, it'd be because of the same reason I did it last time: I don't wanna see you get hurt. You OR Priscilla."She reaches out with her non-ice-cream-spilled-on hand and takes Kanako's hand in hers, squeezing it.
>"That might make it difficult for us to stay friends. I understand that. Just as my cruel words earlier also have. And I don't need an answer now. But if you're willing to try our best anyway, I am too. I think the friendship we had is worth it."Carmody lets go of Kanako's hand and backs up.
>"Hope we can talk soon, all right? I should go."She starts towards the exit of the ice cream parlor.
