[Steph sighs, it's incredibly difficult to stay angry at someone who looks so crestfallen, especially when he's so apologetic as well.]

Thank you for saying sorry. [She wishes it hadn't been necessary in the first place, but at least he wasn't a jerk about it] You're probably going to run into this sort of thing a lot, so you really should be more careful about what you say.

I can help. I mean, if you ever need someone to help explain things, I can do my best.
