Ghetsis smiled, looking back at Anthea. He felt more at ease, he felt a weight lifting off of his heart. He had an even longer path ahead of him, to regain the trust of those he had hurt, to rebuild everything he had broken. It would take a very long time, but he would do it. Ghetsis wanted nothing more then to have the sweet grace of forgiveness, he might of gotten very ill at first, after his original defeat. But, he expected to be have more pain follow him, he deserved as much for the horrible things he had done. It would be a difficult journey to take, but he was willing to go through with it. The words he spoke were true, whether they seem to suspicious to others or not, he was a different man compared to two years ago.
“Yes, my dear, I understand completely. I would not expect anything less, a part of me is almost glad you didn’t full trust me right away. It means that you’re already smarter then I am, in many ways. In all honesty, I don’t ever expect you to fully trust me again…That is..fine. But as long as you know..”
Ghetsis put his view on Anthea, as he gently took one of her hands.
“The Ghetsis you once knew, from two years ago. He doesn’t exist anymore, he has since passed away. I’ll make it my solemn duty to never go down that path again, hurting others, especially the loving I once had. I’ll do anything I need to, to pay for what I had done, I’m willing to wait as long as I need to.”
He softly kissed her hand.
“From this day, I’ll always be there for you Anthea, I won’t abandon you again..”
It all seemed too good to be true, but he wanted to make it true to prove to his family that he's a changed man. She believed the words he spoke to her, and she hoped not to get the downfall of it all in the end.
Now that she grabbed onto her hand she looked to him and nodded at his words he spoke. "I would believe.. it's experience that makes my trust an issue.. with you." Anthea said, "I'm glad that no... one has to see that side of you.."
Her eyes closed and her head lowered as he kissed on her hand and she let a small smile on her face. "Thank you.. I have faith in you.."
