It was an apology.
When I was a teen one of my brothers friends really liked me and I liked him too but we knew my brother would be upset. We talked in secret and met each other sometimes. But when my brother found out he yelled at his friend and the argument caused his friend to kind of abandon me just like that, which was kind of devastating for a minute bc he was there for several months and then BAM! he just wasn’t. No more calls or visits NOTHING! Cold turkey, just done. He eventually found someone else and the whole thing bothered me for a long time bc in my head I assumed he prob didn’t gaf about me afterall.
Then one day we came across one another in public many years later. And the first thing he did was apologize for the way he left. It was such a humble thing to do and something I really needed. He could have easily assumed I was over it by then and not even mentioned it but he did and it meant a lot that he recognized I must have been hurt.
