Funny Story

As an apology, Daphne buys Ashleigh a box of Portuguese pastries because she once mentioned how much she wanted to travel there. Ashleigh thanks her, but the tone between them is still frosty. Miles never returned to the apartment that night, and he’s still gone when she gets home from work. He left her a box of fudge and a note apologizing for missing her. When she sneers at the paltry gift, she realizes that Ashleigh probably felt the same about the pastries. She ignores a phone call from her father and distracts herself by working on Read-a-thon preparation. When the doorbell rings, she thinks it’s the food she ordered, but it’s Peter.

He and Petra broke up and called off the wedding. He profusely apologizes for hurting her but claims that Petra was never right for him and that he made a big mistake leaving Daphne. Daphne says he shouldn’t have lied to her, but Peter counters that he never lied. Claiming that because he’s telling her now that Petra was the wrong choice, this absolves him of the past. Peter wants to reconcile with Daphne and restart the life they had together.
