Hearing that his beloved sister could do such a thing broke Piotr's heart. He wanted to grasp up the small fairy girl in a giant hug and apologize, but considering what she'd just said, plus the way she'd been acting toward him, Piotr could guess how he'd been toward her when Illy had done her thing. She probably didn't want him near, let alone hugging.
"I am so very sorry." He rubbed his face, trying to find something to do with his hands. "That is a horrible thing. A very horrible thing. It is no wonder that you do not like me very much. I ... I am sorry."
After a couple minutes, Piotr couldn't hold himself back anymore. He grabbed Megan and hugged her tightly.
"Whatever I did, it was clearly the wrong thing to do. I apologize. And for the hug. I am sorry for that, too."
