Surviving The Undead: A Southsider's Tale (Daryl Dixon Love Story)

The Mall

Sophia's POV:

After Rick left us, me and Kimberly encountered some of the horde that cut off the highway and ran as far away as we could.

We eventually came across a shopping mall that looked almost untouched but it was too soon to tell.

"What do you think mija do we check it out or continue on?" Kim asked.

"I um maybe we could check it out and look for food and more supplies."

"Smart thinking little lady let's go."

Kim pried open the backdoor and we headed inside and this place was loaded.

I was grateful i was with Kim because she knows her stuff and she will keep me safe.

I then got handed her mallet which was apparently named Smiley, while she checked around for danger.

If this place was a bust there was a place nearby with a pharmacy and grocery store that we could check out.

We eventually settled in a clothing store that had a café inside and hit the food jackpot.

"HOLY SHIT!" Kim gasped.

"Language!" I scolded.

It had became our little thing me scolding her for cursing because Kimberly Milkovich cusses like a sailor.

"Sorry." She mumbled. "You know my mom would always call me out on cussing your remind me so much of her."

I knew Kim was was missing her family and i was too but we have to keep hope and we will find them.

We eventually settled down and began eating the canned goods we found but was disturbed by the sound of soft cries coming from the walk in freezer.

Kim's POV:

I put my peaches down and shot up after hearing the sound and pushed Sophia so she was out of the way.

I walked over to the freezer with Smiley tight in my grip and opened the door.

I was stunned.

"Please help me please!" The woman begged.

She was heavily pregnant and seemed to be in labour.

God give me strength.

I rushed over to her and began asking what was wrong.

"My baby you've got to help me i can't lose my baby please!" She cried.

"Whoa calm down, what exactly is wrong." I was good with shit like this due to the fact i had two of my own.

"My baby is coming please help me!"

"I um are you dilated?"

"I don't now just please hel-" She cried out in pain.

"Ok, ok stay calm can i do an exam?" I asked calmly.

"Are you a doctor do you know what your doing?" She questioned. "Are you a midwife where did you learn?"

"Sweetheart now isn't the time for 21 questions but i've delivered a few babies in my time now can i check?"

Back in the Southside healthcare was shocking so people relied on word from the street which led to people coming to me after news got out i successfully delivered my godson.

"Ok please help!" She then allowed me to exam her.

"I've got to push i can feel it!" She cried.

"No you can't your not fully dialated!" I said.

"It's ok i know what this means the doctors always said pregnancy would be a high risk for me and i can't lose my baby i can't!"

"I don't know what to do." I said honestly.

"You have to cut me op-" I cut her off.

"No! Not without the right tools you won't survive."

"You have to please! I can't lose my baby!" She then broke down and left me with a very hard decision to make.

I gave in.

I got her comfortable and tried to ready myself for the act i was going to commit.

"What's your name?" She asked.

"Kimberly Milkovich, you?"

"Dasani rae." She replied. "Hey your that southside chick one the news who shot up Marlow's office right, with the confetti cannons and smoke bombs?"

"Yep that's me, a guy owed me a lot of money and wasn't willing to pay so i took matters into my own hands." I shrugged.

A sudden gush of water cut our conversation short.

"Well i'll be damned looks like the babies coming on it's own!" I was so relived because i could not handle someone's death on my hands.

"You ready to push?" I asked.

"Ready as i'll ever be." She chuckled.

"1, 2, 3 push!" I instructed.

A few pushed later we had a healthy baby girl but Dasani was not looking good at all.

"It's a girl!" I smiled while wrapping the baby in a blanket before handing her to her mother.

"Dasani Kimberly-Rae Milkovich." She stated.

"What?" I asked.

"I want to name her after you, you helped me and i could never repay you." She said.

Damn near got the waterworks going there and then.

"Why Milkovich? She deserves your last name." I said.

"Your badass i want her to be a badass too." She chuckled.

I could help but laugh.

"I have one more favour to ask of you Kim." She said while wiping the sweat coating her tanned skin.

"I need to you take my baby and raise her as your own."

My jaw dropped.

Why would she be asking me to look after her baby?

My question didn't go unanswered.

As if reading my mind she spoke 3 words that crushed me.

I've been bit.

"Oh dios mío." (Oh my god).
I mumbled.

"When did it happen?"

"Just before you arrived." She said while slowly losing consciousness.

She said her goodbyes to her bundle of joy and told me i had to put her down.

I thought today was gonna be a good day.

I pulled out my knife as the mother took her last breath.

"T-thank you K-kimberly Milkovich."

I watched as her eyes rolled to the back of her head as she led there.

Lord forgive me.

I then slid my knife in the back of her head while silently sobbing.

I took the baby back to where i had lost Sophia only to find something i didn't want to see.

She wasn't alone...
