" Please listen to me. I... " He got cut off by the ringing sound. They were both startled because of the sudden sound.

Hunter wanted to ignore the call but saw that it was from the military. He had to pick it up. He looked at Grace and a sad smile spread on his face as he said.

" Excuse me."

Then he picked up the phone. He heard something and his expression went solemn. He nodded and replied he will be there soon. After he hung up, Hunter looked at Grace with a complicated look.

She looked back with empty eyes. There was strong disgust in her eyes which made him feel despair. He couldn accept that he was so lowly once upon a time. He looked at her sincerely and said.

" I need to go. Call from the military. But I want to say one last thing before I go. I never touched anyone except you. I went to clubs and I smoke and drank. But I am still pure. I never harassed anyone. What I said in the message was all true. What happened between us is my biggest sin and biggest regret. Ive always wanted to apologise to you. So... I am really really sorry. Don forgive me but forget me if I still hurt you." As he said sorry, Hunter bowed his head to her. Then he walked to the door.

He opened the door but stopped. One last time, he turned around to her and hesitated a lot before he said.

" I know I am shameless to say this but will you still consider this? Because I believe it was my destiny. You are the reason why I became a good person from a bad person. As much as that night may have changed your life, it did for me too. And there is no one I am more grateful to and sorry to other than you.

I won give any excuses for my behaviour that night but I will still apologise and thank you for turning me into what I am. I don deserve you but I want to deserve you. Can you please... Give me a chance to make up to you and become worthy of you. I still want to ask you shamelessly.

Will you... Marry me? "

Grace honestly didn expect that. She felt really ridiculous seeing him today. She couldn believe all that happened. As she didn reply, Hunter smiled depressingly and said.

" I will be going then. I don know when I will be back but please... Just give me a chance to redeem myself. I promise I won spare any effort to prove it to you. And if that doesn matter, then please forgive me. I feel like I am losing the most significant person in my life because of the most stupid thing Ive ever done. I don want to lose you just like that. You don have to marry me instantly. Just give me a chance. Please!

...Bye. Take care and I am... Sorry."

Then Hunter left. It took a long time for Grace to digest this news. After that, she didn hear from him for two months. His parents once mentioned him and said he was on a mission.

She actually believed that he has turned for good but she still couldn accept him after all the things that happened. She couldn empathise with him. She just found this whole situation extremely ridiculous.

After two months, one morning, she received a message from him. It only said.

" I am back. For two days."

She ignored his message. Then the two days passed in a blink of an eye. And she again got a message.

" I am leaving. Sorry for hurting you. I will make sure to atone for my sins."

Then she didn hear from him for three months. Time seemed to pass by quickly yet slowly. Grace busied herself with work. Hunter was out on missions. Seeing them both so busy, their parents didn bring up their marriage.

One day, suddenly she received a message from him.

" Do I have any chance or a way to make up to you?"

To Hunter, Grace meant a lot. He thought about her the most in those three years. He was most guilty towards her. He apologised to his parents but he didn do anything so big that he was unforgivable. Only to her, he almost harmed her.

Though he stopped in time, it doesn mean he didn intend to hurt her. That alone made him a monster. All this time, he tried to forget about that part because that hurt him too. She was his unhealable scar. It would sting sharply every day.

When he met her again, he has a feeling that they were fated to be. But he also knew he might have destroyed that fate of theirs himself. So he asked for a chance.

Only by having a chance can he redeem himself. The best way to make up to her was to stay by her side and protect her as long as he is alive. He was scared of losing her. He wanted to badly turn back time and change what happened but it was impossible.

He felt disgusted with himself for behaving like this. After sending this message, Grace didn reply. After a few more days, his next and last message came.

" I understand. I don want your forgiveness but please forget me. I don wish to remain as a memory that hurt you. I would rather never exist in your life. I will always remember what happened and never hurt anyone. If one day, we meet again, you can ignore me and I won disturb you. I know I was quite disgusting these past few days.

Even I felt disgusted so forget all this ** about me and live a happy life. You are a very unique person. Your pureness is something that is only for the best. I hope that you will lead a great life. You truly deserve the best. Farewell."
