[He clears his throat, then takes a breath. This is hard... even harder than Day Two of Inter-high, than that start and the song to challenge a hundred cyclists. It's hard--but it must be done. He takes a breath, then looks at Onoda again.]
So... when you gave me that rose. When I yelled at you. All that stuff... I'm sorry. I'll just be really honest with you, Onoda. I don't really know what happened, but I shouldn't have yelled at you for any of that. I don't hate you, and I don't mean anything I said. [He sighs, leaning back against the bench.] I was really mean. I can get if you hate me after this, because I was really, truly awful. But I had to tell you sorry in person. You deserve that much from me.
