Bernadetta enters the scene

Bernadetta. If you have a moment, I would like to discuss what happened before.

Bernadetta

Ah, my nemesis! The hour of fate arrives... Help!
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

I am not here to hurt you! You need not even open the door. Just listen to me.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

I...don't have to open the door? Is this a truce? OK. OK, I like truces!
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

Thank you. I would like to apologize for sticking my nose into your business the way I did.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

I thought you might be unhappy all cooped up in there, and that maybe I could help.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

But I've had time to reflect on what you said, and I realize I was mistaken.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

Oh... Um, thanks for caring, but I'm fine actually.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

I see that. I suppose that is what I am trying to say.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

I should not have pushed you to do something that you did not wish to do.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

And for me to frighten you like that... That was unbecoming conduct for a noble.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

Maybe a little bit.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

Frankly, I am embarrassed by my behavior. I disgraced myself.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

As for my injury, you need not feel guilty or afraid. The sprain was a result of my own thoughtlessness, not anything you did.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

I have always strived to be a good person...but I suppose all that striving was for nothing. I have failed in my duty as a noble.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

Um, Ferdinand?
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

Yes, Bernadetta?
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

I don't really know much about this sort of thing... But you shouldn't say things like that about yourself!
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

It wasn't all your fault, you know. I'm to blame too.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

I hurt you, and I'm sorry.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

Really, it is fine. It healed quickly.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

And...it wasn't for nothing either!
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

I am not so sure.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

I do like my time alone. Actually, it's more of a need.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

But you're right. I also need to venture out every once in a while.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

Maybe if I work as hard as you do, I can try it a little more.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

Yes. Keep working at it. You are already much more outgoing than you used to be.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

When I mess up or even when it's just a bad day, it's hard for me to step outside. I'm too scared.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

But the next day, I try again...because I know that one mistake doesn't ruin everything.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

So you're still... I mean, just because you... That doesn't mean...
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

Ah, I...don't know how to put it, but that's how it is. So, um... The end.
link
Ferdinand
volume_up

What a graceful end to the conversation.
link
Bernadetta
volume_up

Hey, come on! That was serious! Ugh, at least I got you to laugh.
