"I'm sorry but I have to leave, I need to find my friends and help them. I'm so sorry" said a man, he bent down getting to the little girl's level.
"You know I have to go," the man said looking at her disappointed.
"So, I could come with you?!" She asked hopefully. She turned around to look at him with wide eyes.
He gave a long and big sigh.
"I'm so sorry Katniss, but you can't," he said looking at her, with his eyebrows furrowed.
"And besides you need to protect Lee and Clem. You know she looks up to you both" he said his hand on her shoulder, he was about to stand up.
She pulled his arm closer whispering to his ear.
"Please don't forget me," she said whispering so no one could hear.
"I won't, I promise," he said standing up.
He promised, no need to worry
She thought but she felt wrong, like he would forget her.
•
He forgot me, he fucking forgot me.
"Girl, are ya okay?" Asked someone beside her.
It was Daryl. He looked at the girl worried. She nodded her head and kept staring at the wall.
"You're not, are ya sad 'cuz ya need to take the arm off?" He asked worried, and looking at Avery struggling to stitch her hand.
"No," she said she felt like she hadn't talked for hours, even days, she felt her throat being raspy and her eyes slowly falling.
"Yar not!" He said not turning to face her, making Glenn move.
Glenn didn't look worried he looked scared, like he was about to give something away.
Starr kept looking at Glenn like he was some kind of monster.
She looked towards Daryl, her eyes watering.
"He promised," she said whispering.
"What?" He asked turning his ear to her face.
"He fucking promised," she said, making everyone hear.
She turned to face Glenn but her head felt heavy.
She was struggling to keep it up, she didn't feel anything from her feet or hand, and slowly she felt tired. Not the sleepy kind, she just felt tired.
"Feel weak," the girl said looking at Daryl with her eyes half closed.
"Shit!" He said looking at her, his eyes wide as she fell on Carl.
He looked worried, scared even.
"What's going on?" He looked around his eyebrows upwards as his eyes were wide.
"Carl come on, the big guys need their space" called Lori to him, putting her hand signaling that he should take it.
"Still not a guy," said Avery. As she was throwing stuff away.
"Sorry," she said and walked out with Carl. She was walking fast while arguing with her son. Rick not far behind trying to reason with his wife.
Shane looked at them happy until he looked at Rick, he looked annoyed, mad even. He looked like he was about to kill him or run at him any second.
But he didn't, he couldn't do that to Carl, he was too sweet, too dumb for this world. He thought that he needed extra help just because he was a kid. But Daryl knew Carl could survive just like Starr could.
He slowly snapped back to reality, realizing he was stupid, he didn't care, in fact he couldn't care less about these kids.
He slowly stood up and walked away, as soon as he opened the door he regretted it, he felt bad for Starr, he knew her dad and knew how he could act. But what he didn't know was what her mom did, he thought her dad did everything not her mom. He had this perfect image of her, he sometimes wonders if he would find someone like her: sweet but sour.
He pushed the thought away trying to not think of her mom like that, he couldn't even though he hated her dad he shouldn't think like that.
"You're not going to help?" Called a man at him.
"Of course not, the only thing he thinks about is himself, you should know that by now," said Avery turning to Glenn with an annoyed look.
Daryl grunted and closed the door.
"Do you know what she meant by 'he promised, he fucking promised'?" She asked him wondering, she was still stitching the girl up as she looked at Glenn again.
He just looked at her with tears in his eyes.
"I promised," he said with one tear flowing down his cheek.
"What do you mean?" Asked the woman, putting the stitches down ready to take the bandage.
"This is Katniss," he said looking at the girl.
Avery cringed hearing that name, she knew Starr didn't like it, but her introducing herself with it felt even weirder.
"Katniss Campell, sometimes called Kat by her family members," he said "Starr Katniss Campell," he said again looking at Avery hoping it was her.
"Yeah, but she-" she said trying to finish her sentence.
"She didn't like people calling her that because her parents were abusive and called her Katniss," he said looking even more hopeful.
"Yeah, how do you know that" she said looking scared.
"Did you know her parents or?" She said hoping he would finish her sentence.
But he never didn't because they heard a gunshot.
"Shit!" Called Glenn.
