[ Clara doesn't ask for details, it isn't any of her business anyway. She's also been there with the nebulous night of a one-night stand fueled by alcohol. The aftermath of her mum's death was a shit show.
Instead, after Adrienne's statement, Clara takes a breath and decides to finally apologize. ]
So would I. [ Exhaling, she leans against the counter facing the other woman. ] And I wanted to say sorry about everything on the train. I came on strong, on the network too. I think—
[ Clara bites at her lip, pausing for a second before continuing. ]
This isn't an excuse, there really isn't a good enough one when it comes to treating someone badly, and I really am sorry for that. You didn't deserve it. I wanted you to know that before I tried to explain. Right before the train, I drowned, sort of. I mean, I came back. Someone brought me back.
[ Chewing on the inside of her bottom lip now instead, she continues, loosely folding her arms across her chest. ]
I didn't know what to do with someone brushing it all off so casually after I went through that. But it wasn't your fault, and I should've listened better. If we're gonna be friends going forward, that needed to be said. I'm not always a complete and utter arse.
