Genny stands next Daryl listening to Gregory's bullshit. "I'm going to get some air," she sighs as she kicks off the wall and walks away.

She walks behind Caisy careful not to touch her. Caisy looks at her while Genny leaves the room and follows her.

Outside Genny leans against the side of the house throwing up. She sighs with her eyes closed while she leans against the wall. "You okay?" Someone asks.

She looks up and sighs again seeing Caisy."Yeah, just..." she looks down again, "pregnancies have never been my thing." She chuckles.

"You're pregnant?" Caisy asks with tears in her eyes.

"Yes, three or four months," Genny says looking at Caisy.

Daryl walks out of the house and over to Caisy. "Everything okay?" He asks Genny.

"You didn't mention you knocked up my mom!" Caisy yells through her tears before running off.

Daryl looks at her before looking at Genny who walks over to him. "You wanted to take her in, right?" She asks making him nod.

"Great, she's your responsibility now," she says before walking past him.

"Can't you at least try? Try to get to know her?" He asks turning to her pissed that she won't even try to be nice to her daughter.

"I just got you back. I don't want to start fighting right away," she sighs turning to him.

He looks at her and nods pulling her into a kiss. She kisses him back but he pulls back. "My ring, I lost it when Negan..." he pauses with his forehead against hers and his eyes closed.

"I have it," she says softly.

He looks at her as she pulls out Glenn's necklace. "I wanted to keep it close to me, in case...I don't know why. I just knew I needed it with me," she says softly taking it off and putting it back on his finger. 

Even though he lost weight it still fits perfectly. She looks at his hand with her other on her belly holding Glenn's necklace. She nods with a small sniff and tears falling from her lashes.

"I'm sorry, Gen. If I hadn't..." he starts.

"Don't, don't apologize. Negan did this. Not Rick, not Carl, not you. Negan," she says looking him straight into his eyes.

He looks at her for a few seconds before nodding. He tries to keep it together but still breaks down as she hugs him. His hands go around her back as he hides his face in her shoulder.

"You don't have to tell me what happened. But you can always talk to me," she says softly while she tries not to cry herself.

"Genny! Daryl! Lets go," Rick yells at them.

Soon enough Genny watches the group leave without her and Maggie.
