Their Innocent Baby Girl (The Walking Dead)

Different

Idalia's POV

Bear foot running in the woods I have nowhere to go and can't locate food or clean water. There were towns emerging from the woods. I notice something out of the corner of my eye as I walk around. A man in a hospital gown crying as he walks out of a residence. I approach him.

"Excuse me mister?"I took a breather before continuing my small talk.

"Are you all right?" On the outside , Tried to paper brave, but on the inside, I was terrified that he would hurt me or that he would yell at me, causing me to cry. But I was taken aback when I heard him speak to me.

"Don't worry, sweetheart, I'll probably be fine." I took a step closer to him.

"Then why were you crying mister?" I approached him on the steps and sat next to him.

"It's a very long story sweetheart I don't think you would understand sweetheart."

"I know I'm not the most clever person here but.....but I could try and understand for you." With puppy dog eyes, I glance at him. 'It always works with everyone else,' says the narrator. He begins to speak, but all you see and hear is Rick on the floor and a loud BANG, as if he has been struck by something. When I glance up, I notice a small boy holding a shovel shouting at me and requesting his father. I begin to cry as a result of the yelling and Rick's denial to get up.

Rick's POV

In desperation, I walked out the door and sat on the step, thinking.
"Excuse me, sir." That's the first thing someone has spoken to me today. When I look up, I see a young girl with a somewhat filthy bunny. We had a brief conversation before the lights went off. I was terrified for Idalia's safety and for what would happen to her. She's a little who needs to be looked after.
My wrists and feet are bound to the bed, and there is weight on my chest when I wake up. I look down to see Idalia sleeping, her cheeks stained with tears. Turning around to find a man and a child with a bat.

"Got that bandage changed now it was pretty rank. What was the wound?" The guy asked.

"Gunshot." I told him.

"Gunshot."He questioned, surprised." What else anything? "
We had a little conversation before he headed off and asked a baffling question.

" Did you get bit?"He consulted me. It was necessary for me to clarify what he had stated.

" Bit?"

" Bit, chewed maybe scratched anything like that?"

" No I got shot and just shot as far as I know."

" I didn't mean to be rude, but I went through your daughter's stuff to see if she had any weapons so she wouldn't hurt us. Instead, I stumbled across this." He showed me a baby's dummy.

" Do you have any idea why she's carrying this around with her?" He wondered.

" She is not my child. I've just met her. Because she had found me, I allowed her to join me. But I'm not sure why she has it with her."

" That's okay. When you're ready, come out." I didn't want to inform him she's little. I don't think she'd appreciate it if I told him something so sensitive about her.

Idalia's POV

We sat at the table and ate our meal. Rick told me I had to finish all of my meal, be a good girl, and treat those guys with respect. But why should I be kind to those people if they've done something bad to Rick? But, for Rick's sake, I had to be a good girl.
The dinner certainly didn't look yummy, but Rick seemed to enjoy it, so it must be tasty. Some boy keeps staring at me strangely, as if he thinks I'm weird or dumb or something. Rick informed me his name was Duane or something like that.
Rick and Morgan were discussing, Duane gazed out the window, and I sat on the floor on a mattress.
