Negan,
You finally talked to me today. Actually opened up to me. It was nice, to get to know you a little better. I could tell you were still being cautious, but I guess that's a good thing, that you weren't totally ready to open up to me. I'm going to keep working on it, keep trying to make you talk to me more. You didn't talk much, unfortunately. You talked about Lucille. What happened to her was a damn shame, Negan, and I'm truly sorry that she died the way she did, even if I don't tell you that in person. I feel bad for you, Negan, but I pretend I hate you because I feel like I have to.
I hope that one day you feel comfortable enough to open up to me. Like, really open up to me. I'm not saying we should be best friends, I'm saying that maybe it'll be good for you to finally talk about everything that's happened to you with someone. I know for a fact you didn't talk to any of your people, not Simon, not Arat, or Gavin. Not about shit this personal, I know you liked to keep your big bad leader attitude around them. Maybe that was out of fear too, because you were afraid if they saw you for you, they'd turn on you. That actually makes a lot of sense. I don't know, I think I'm just trying to make shit up to make excuses for you or something. That's what Maggie says I keep doing. But, regardless, I'm going to keep talking to you. I'm going to get you to open up one day, Negan.
Sincerely,
Rick Grimes
