I gave the baby to Carl. Thomas than came and hugged me, along with Dick. I was still shaking. 

We got anything a baby can eat? Daryl asked. 

The good news is she looks healthy. But she needs formula. And soon or she won't survive. Hershel said. 

Nope, no way, not her. We ain't losing nobody else. I'm going for a run. Daryl said. 

I'll back you up. Maggie said. 

I'll go too. Glenn said. 

Glenn, Rick, and Daryl than left to go get food for food for the baby. 

I looked to Rick, he looked awful I tried to go talk to him but he went were Lori's body was left.  

Payton. Beth said to me. 

Yeah. I said. 

There's something you should know. Beth said. 

What is it? I asked. 

Carol and T dog are dead. Beth told me. 

My heart sank. I did not know Carol and T dog for that long but still they were family. 

Tears came down my face. I went inside my cell. I needed a break. From the walkers, the supplies. Everything. I sat down on my bed. To try and relax but all I could think of was Lori's face. 

Payton. I heard Dick call my name. 

I whipped the tears from my eyes. 

Hey, what are you doing here? I ask Dick. 

I wanted to come check on you. Dick said. 

Oh, you don't have to check on me, I'm ok Dick. I said. 

Dick than wrapped his arms around my torso. 

Payton it's ok for you not to be ok. You can cry, or be mad. It's ok to let it out. Dick said. 

Tears came down from my face once again. I wrapped my arms around Dick. 

-------------------------------------------

During the night, I tried to go to sleep but I could not. I decited to go and look at the stars. 

When I went out there I saw Carl. 

I was hesitant to sit next to him. But I did anyway. 

What are you doing out here bud. I said. 

Carl was silent. 

I'm so sorry Carl. I said as Carl looked at me. 

It was my fault, I should of got you two to a better place or made you guys go with Hershe- Carl than wrapped his arms around me, he started crying. 

I wrapped my arms around his head. 

Shh, it's ok. Your gonna be ok. I said. 

It's not your fault Payton. Carl said.
