Will I be forgiven for this?

I apologized to someone for acting out against them and lying to them last night. After I apologized for the way I acted, I also apologized for lying to them. This person was unaware I lied, so they asked me what part did I lie about. I told them what it was but it was hard for me to spit it out and I didn't say 100% of what I should have said. I believe they got a pretty good understanding about what I was referring to, however, I'm afraid I didn't really repent of the sin. What are your thoughts and advice?

Repentance is to God and I would repent to Him now and go on with life, You have already ask forgiveness from them so now don't let satan beat you up and don't lie anymore.
Trust God :]
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

You repented or you would not have volunteered the info. If you fumbled the ball so to speak, it doesn't change the fact that you repented.

You confessed and repented to God and moreover to the person you lied to. I would pray for the Lord to remove all false condemnation from you and false guilt because only the Devil condemns.
