IT'D BEEN WEEKS SINCE THE WORST HAPPENED. i had no family so michonne and rick took me in. they gave me my own bedroom and everything, i'd been sitting in there most days while michonne would sometimes come and check on me.
carl was okay. he had to wear a bandage over where his eye used to be but he was fine, alive. i'd visited him in the infirmary a few times but only when he'd been asleep, for i knew every time i'd look at his bandage i'd cry because of the reminder of ron, mother and sam it'd bring.
when he finally came home, however, i'd trained myself to hold it in, the crying. no one would see me cry anymore but at night, my pillows were soaked with tears. carl hugged me immediately without a word when i'd come downstairs to welcome him home. i nearly cried then but that was the only time. he held me tightly against him, my head on his chest and i knew this was his silent way of telling me he was sorry about me losing everyone. he knew not to say the words and when we parted, i stared at him, grateful there was at least one person that knew me.
my bedroom was right across from his, often he'd come into mine and we'd sit and read in silence. i don't think he liked leaving me alone after michonne must've told him about denise finding me asleep next to him one night with a bottle of sleeping pills in my hand. they made me stay at the infirmary for a while until they were sure i wouldn't do anything stupid like that again, i never took a single pill but i got reprimanded for even thinking about doing it in the proximity of sleeping injured carl even though i wasn't going to take them there anyway.
i speak less than i did before, there's just nothing for me to say and i don't really go outside and start small talk with people either. enid had come by a few times since glenn and maggie had unofficially adopted her but she knew i wanted alone time, she also didn't like being near carl but she understood why i did.
