Sometime during the afternoon, an envelope is left taped to Anakin's door. Inside is a note, which reads:
Anakin,
Earlier this year, I came to see you and apologize for certain things that happened- or more accurately, didn't happen- during the time Rory and I were dating. I realise now that this was a mistake, and I'd like to apologize for *that*, because what I had to say was something that should have been said to Rory. Which it was, but I shouldn't have come to you first, because it makes it seem as if Rory was an object or a kid who couldn't accept her own apologies or make her own choices. That's obviously not true, and wasn't fair to either of you, because accepting my apology would have forced you to play into the same mistake.
You and I haven't spoken since then, and though I can understand why, I regret that we're no longer on good terms. Rory's friendship is something that's important to both of us, and sooner or later we're going to end up crossing paths again; I'd really like for there to be no bad feelings between us when that happens.
However that works out, though, I'd like you to know that I wish you well, and I really am glad that you're back.
