Good-bye

The last time Cain had been here his soul had been dark and his heart split into tiny pieces.
“Adora, I mourned you for eight annuals while trapped in that suit. The guilt is finally gone,” he whispered as he knelt by her grave. “I’ve met someone and I love her like I never thought possible.”
He carefully worked his wedding ring off his finger and laid it beside the tin star he’d left almost ten months earlier.
Standing slowly, he looked one last time at her marker then strode off to his Princess and the rest of his life.
