[ Connie opens the channel to listen, and she feels herself tense up when she hears Steven's voice.
She's been going over that conversation in her head nonstop since yesterday. She's been thinking thinking thinking. Did she say something wrong? What was she expecting him to say? What should he have said? What would have made it go better? Could it have gone worse? Did he mean what he said? Why did he say it? Had she been unfair, was she asking too much? Was she not asking enough?
She hears the apology and she can't even stop the tears from coming down, something inside her unwinds and the sudden relief is extraordinary. She's glad these are radios, because if she didn't have to push a button to speak, he would hear her doing some gross sobbing on the other side.
A few minutes later when she's calmed herself down somewhat, she presses the button to talk but... she doesn't know what to say. She can't do this over the radio. She depresses the button. ]
