John: How are you feeling today?
Ellen: not good
John: I'm so sorry for that
Ellen: You should have told me before
John: I didn't know how, I was afraid
Ellen: of course, you should be afraid.
John: what do you mean?
Ellen: I should to your "wife"
John: I don't know what to say
Ellen: Do you think I should?
John: I think you will do whatever you feel is good, I don't want to hurt anybody anymore, especially you
Ellen: you've hurt me already
John: I know, and I am so sorry
John: we should meet and talk
Ellen: I am not sure about that
John: I want you to understand one thing.
Ellen: ???
John: Even if you didn't know the whole story it doesn't mean I ever lied about my feelings to you.
Ellen: Oh, please. I don't believe anything you've ever said
John: and this is breaking my heart
John: Please, let me tell you everything as it is
Ellen: when?
John: whenever you want
Ellen: after my work?
John: I'll pick you up, as always
Ellen: ok.
John wasn't honest with Ellen and hurt her. John is very sorry and was afraid to tell Ellen the truth. Ellen doesn't believe him anymore. John will pick Ellen up after her work, so they can talk.
