but it is a reparation

to free you from the results

of what has been done

to your people.

Oh, I wanted to talk to you.

Sit down.

Okay.

I've come to thank you.

You know, for what

you've been doing,

shining a light

into a dark place.

You are a brave woman,

Mrs. Coetzee.

I hated you at first.

Of course.

I'm just as easy to hate

as I am to love.

Well, I just...

I guess I just...

I lived in a bubble.

But now I ask myself,

"How could I not see?"

I'm not talking

just about Hansi.

I guess I'm really talking about

everything that's been going on.

I pretended that

it wasn't happening, but...

I knew.

And at this point,

probably doesn't

mean much, but...

I want to say I'm sorry.

Why doesn't it mean much

to say you're sorry?

I guess because I think that

I'm a bad person

and that you'll think

these are just white tears.

Happily, tears,

they don't have any color

and I think you're a person

in need of a hug

just like the rest of us.

What was that for?

I'm sorry.

These last two years have been

hard for you, Leah.

But I just want you to know

I never took you for granted.

Never.

Why, you old goat,

are you asking me

for forgiveness?

I suppose I am.

Look at it.

What a beautiful sight.

Yes, the sea and all its colors.

I've always loved them.

No, no, no, I mean,

here on the beach.

Our beach.

They say the hardest thing to do

The hardest

is to love somebody

Who doesn't love you

I think

the hardest thing to do

The hardest is to love

Somebody who

Somebody who hates you

How can I just let you

Walk away

And just be free?

How can I dismiss the pain

And what you did to me?

It's the hardest thing to do

Please believe

I forgive you

You're forgiven

I forgive you

You're forgiven

How can I just let you

Walk away

And just be free?

How can I dismiss the pain

And what you did to me?

It's the hardest thing to do

Please believe

But I forgive you

You're forgiven

I forgive you

You're forgiven

How can I just let you

Walk away

And just be free?

How can I dismiss the pain

And what you did to me?

It's the hardest thing to do

Please believe

But I forgive you

You're forgiven

I forgive you

You're forgiven

Oh

Oh

And I forgive you

You're forgiven

And I forgive you

You're forgiven

And I

Forgive you

You're forgiven
