"I know I was a bastard in the past. How I treated you... well, there's no excuse for the things I've done-"I begin, letting the words flow through me freely, not stopping to think about what I'm saying.

Instead, I try to really speak from the heart. To finally give Cara a window into my mind... perhaps even into my soul.

"You really don't have to do this.
