Giving Snow a second chance was going to be the hardest thing she'd ever do. Even harder than it had been to take her own father's heart to cast the curse. She was the reason that her precious Daniel was gone. Had she only have kept her promise to never speak a word he might still be alive today. The absence of her true love was something that haunted her everyday. It had fueled every action she had taken.
For Henry she would try to forgive Snow, though that forgiveness would not come easy. Deep down she knew that her hatred and anger was unfounded. Snow had been a small child who'd lost her mother. She'd only been trying to help not knowing just how manipulative Cora could be. But, Regina had always been powerless against the woman who raised her, and her hatred had turned to someone else. Someone who had unknowingly caused her so much heartache. Someone that was so innocent of heart that they could not see the evil before them.
"This isn't easy for either of us. But everyone deserves to be given a second chance."
