Stephen took the beer gratefully and took a swig before he spoke, considering Cutter closely.

"It... it good to see you again Nick, as crazy as all this is... I-I never got the chance to say that... that I'm sorry for... for what happened... with Helen and... with us."

Stephen dropped his gaze as he spoke, the guilt and shame over everything he had done to hurt Cutter came rushing back to the surface- the affair with Helen, turning his back on what he and Cutter had once had, how everything ended.... there was so much he regretted and so much he knew he could never make amends for.
