"That's not what we want to hear, Pannis," Catherine said, her spirit seemingly reviving, the despair and pain in her eyes gradually fading as she straightened her back, stepping closer to where Pannis stood with a solemn expression. "You should understand, we don't need an apology. A pale, powerless 'sorry' doesn't solve anything. What we want to hear is something else."
"But I can't say what you want to hear," Pannis laughed at himself mockingly, shaking his head. "Everything can no longer be changed. What's the point of saying things that are destined not to happen? I've already broken a promise once, I don't want to break another, so I'm sorry, I can't fulfill your request."
"Can't say it?" Catherine emerged completely from her previous dejection, taking another step forward, scoffing. "You think so because you don't even know what we want to hear."
