Rhea was knealing on the bathroom floor with head over the toilet. She groaned as another sudden wave of nausea started in her stomach, making it way onto her throat and eventually into the toilet again as she gasped for air.

She pressed her palms into her eyes, trying to shake off the sickly feeling when the door quietly opened, and a glass of water clinked on the ground beside the Dixon girl.

She groaned as she took it with shaky hands and drank the water slowly, as she leaned against the wall.

Xander kneeled in from of his girlfriend and looked at her with worry "Babe why don't you stay behind, Carl and I can do it."

"No I can do it don't worry, besides I'm not going to be with you at the Sanctuary because of my wound and... the other thing... I need to help with something." Rhea told him, while getting on her feet.

"You're sure?" He asked her again.

"Yes I'm sure. Now..." She trailed as she walked towards the shower while taking her clothes of and looked befind her shoulder at him with a smirk "You coming or what?"

After the 'shower' the couple took, they walked downstairs where Carl was waiting for them in the kitchen.

He looked at them "Well finally."

"Shut up Carl." Xander told him a little smirk on his face.

"Come on, we gotta meet your dad on the intersection." Rhea told them with a small smile and the three of them left the house.

The three of them took a van down at a gas station and Carl had a gas container in his hands. They looked around, looking for Rick and they decided to get some more gas when they heard a voice.

"Hi."

Both Carl and Xander immediately turned around and put their guns up, while bringing Rhea behind them.

She rolled her eyes, but she understood why they were proctecting her. She pulled out an arrow and loaded her bow.

"Yeah. I-I'm okay. I mean... I'm not, but... l've been shot at. Someone threw a microwave at me. So I-l'm just gonna say something my mom used to say and hope for the best here. 'Whatever you have of good, spend on the traveler.' My mom said that - that helping the traveler, the person without a home - that's everything. I'm sure you've seen things, been through things,  that you don't trust people. I get it. I get it. I don't, either. I've been through things, too. My mom -she also said that, 'May my mercy prevail over my wrath.' It's not all my mom. That - That one - That's from the Quran. Probably shouldn't have said that. I don't even know you, but I ha- I haven't eaten in a few days.You might not even be real." The man explained.
