When its over

Understanding

Hero's pov.
You know I never in a million years would have hurt my dear Josephine more than I did when I faked my death. I am guilty of all of things and I wish I could let the ground swallow me whole. But sadly that is just a wish I hate seeing her in pain and everything is my fault and no matter what I do for her and no matter what I say it wouldn't fix any of this.

"My sweet Josephine I am sorry for everything no matter what I do nothing will ever fix what I have done to you." I say to her and I see a small tear fall from her right cheek. I reach to wipe it away but she pulls back very  quickly.

"You know hero becoming a mom has matured me in ways that you don't understand." I hear her say. "Everything I do is for my daughter, you can't just walk in here and expect me everything to be okay when it's literally not. I love you hero I really do but we need to have some sort of understanding about our relationship and about our daughter Sage." She says to me and I instantly gulp this can't be good. I think to myself .

"And what about our relationship with you and I.• I ask her hoping this isn't going to be painful but in the end it's going to be painful.
"Look Hero you can't be just walk back into my life and pick up were we left off and pretend it's okay when it's not you have hurt me deeply. There is no US there is no relationship between you and me and we need to focus on our daughter. I don't think there will ever be a relationship with you and me again". She says to me and god her words hurt me and my heart stings it's like an unbearable pain that I have never felt before.

She is right we need to focus on our daughter and get our shit together for her. A single tear slips from my eyes indicating my eyes have betrayed me. Maybe in another we would have been something more but my time is up with her and I hope someone treats her very well and do things I couldn't I hope they make her real happy.

"So do we have an understanding hero." She says softly. She has a sad smile on her face I can tell she is thinking about it too and it's hurting her. Hurting both of us.
But it's had to be this way and I want her to heal through the things that I have put her through.

"Yes Josephine we have an understanding." I say trying not to cry in front of her.

"Good hero." She says.

"We need to learn how to Co-parent together so our daughter can have a good and healthy life with the both of us." She says to me . " we also need to schedule when you get her maybe on the weekends and sometimes durning the weekdays if something important comes up or something."

"Let's do this for Sage." I say to her look in her drained eyes.

"Weekends  and weekdays are fine and whatever you need for you or for our daughter I am just one call away I would do anything for you girls." I say to her.
