Answer
If you have committed a sin, realized and repented of it, and then asked Allah’s forgiveness, you have taken the most important steps.
If someone later asks about it, you are not obliged to get into details about it.
If they keep asking, you can just keep repeating that it is between you and Allah (swt).
If you feel uncomfortable, just let them know and know that others need to respect your choice.
