Pdv Kira :

The next day everyone is already on the job for Sophia's research.
I already went there this morning but I didn't find anything, not even an ounce of footprints, nothing but damn!
I'm talking with Dale on the way to the RV. When we enter Glenn is already inside biting his nails.

Me: Hey, Glenn what are you doing here?

I sit against the furniture in the "kitchen" and Dale sits next to me.

Glenn: Do you see the pretty farmer's wife?

Me: Maggie?

Glenn nods, smiling, he raises his eyebrows at us. I'm afraid to understand... or else it's me who's completely perverted and I'd have to question myself very quickly!

Dale: Oh son you didn't do that anyway?

Glenn smiles even more as he nods, Dale looks at me desperately while me beh, I laugh.

Me: Well done Glenn, you nailed it.

Dale: Nah, but you're not going to encourage him any more.

Me: Well wait, he played really well on this one, we have to congratulate him *laughs*

Dale: Serious kids?

Dale sighs and laughs with us, putting a hand on my shoulder.
Herschel cuts us off as we enter the RV.

Herschel: Ah Kira I'm looking for you.

Me: Is there a problem?

Herschel: Nah but Daryl would like to see you, are you coming with me?

Me: Roh great I'll go with mr grumpy. But hey, I'm coming right away, grandpa!

Herschel raises an eyebrow at the nickname I gave him.

Me: Well what? It's just a little nickname. It was either that or Santa Claus so well...

Herschel rolls his eyes and smiles before walking past me.

Dale: We'll have to talk after.

I nod at him and follow Herschel. We arrive in front of the room where Daryl is. I hardly have time to set foot in my room when Daryl attacks me.

Daryl: So!?

Me: Hello Daryl, happy to see you too, I'm very well and you?

Daryl: Yeah yeah right... I don't give a fuck! SO ! The little one?!

This guy is bipolar, yesterday he thanked me and now he talks to me like a dog.

Me: I followed the track you told us but nothing, not a track that dal.

Daryl: Fuck it! We need to find the kid ASAP!

Carol: Hey.

We turn back to the voice and see Carol standing in front of us in the doorway with a meal tray.

Carol: I wanted to see how you're doing Daryl and then I heard your conversation...
Thank you so much for looking for my little girl. To both of you, I know it's you who do a lot. But... but I don't want you putting yourself in danger for me.

Me: What do you mean?

Carol: Stop the search, I don't want you to die.

Daryl: But it's not bullshit! Give up the kid? You are really dumb!

Me: Daryl! Are you okay or what?!

Daryl: What?! You want us to leave her in these woods!

Me: Of course not! And that's no reason to be such an asshole!

Daryl: Fuck you, I didn't ask you that I know!

I stand in front of him a few centimeters away.

Me: Talk to me like that again and I swear it's not going to be okay.

I take Carol's arm and lead her out of the bedroom. How stupid is this guy! I've never seen such an asshole.
I take Carol outside on the porch.

Carol: Don't blame him... He... he's trying to do well. I know he all wants to find Sophia, all like you. And I thank you for that, but I don't want you to die for me.

She gives me a smile and leaves in the motorhome, leaving me all alone on the perplexed porch. She really wants to abandon her daughter?

Dale: Hey!

Kira: AAH! You're crazy ? You freaked me out!

Dale laughs as I try to catch my breath with a hand over my heart.

Kira: What are you doing here?

Dale: Am I not allowed on the porch?

Kira: Yes, you just scared me.

Dale: Tell me I wanted to know? Since when are you so close to Herschel?

Kira: Uh.. well... We get along well...

Dale: I saw that. "Papi" outright? If one of us would have called him that, they would have snubbed us, but you... I think he likes you.

Kira: He's nice...

Dale looks at me and smiles at me for what I give back.
