"Glenn don't go you just got back." I plead, " Madi I have to go, I can't let man die of starvation" Glenn says trying to reason with me. "But that man is a dumass, a asshole and a racist. Nobody cares about him" I say with a attitude, "Ey choose your words carefully lady" Daryl says, causing me to jump a little because I didn't know he was standing behind me.

"She chose her words perfectly" Shane says then he turns back to Rick and says "why are you doing this man, j-just throw me a bone man. Does Lori know about this?" "Yes she does, and I can't let a man die of starvation and heat. Tha-That's not who I am" Rick snaps back.


"What do you want me to take for you from the shop now?" Glenn asks me while he is crouched down at my level, "I want those Spider-Man onesie, you saw last time" I ask shyly. "I will do my ultra mega best to find it foor you, princess" Glenn says before standing back up  and giving me a hug.

"You better get back Glenn!!!!" I yell as the car with the 4 men leaves, "Woudn't dream of not coming back!!!" Glenn yells back.


Me and Carl are sitting on a tree, not knowing what to do, plus its already late so we don't have much to do. "You still have some comics" I say breaking the comfortable silence. Carl immediately stand up after my comment grabs my hand and begins to drag me towards the Grimes tent.

"I have the best comic collection, nobody will ever beat me" Carl says proudly while taking some comics out of a bag that layed inside of the tent. "I have the whole streak of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, Captain America, Black Widow and my absolute favourite Spider-Man!!" "my favourite is also Spider-Man!!" I say grinning, finally someone who has the same interest as me in comics. "Do you have all the comics of Spider-Man?" I ask curious, "No I have them all but the last one." Carl says with a sigh, "I think I forgot that one at home, when we were leaving" he adds. "We can still read the other Spider-Man comics" I say, at least he has most of em right?

After reading all the Spider-Man comics we lay next to each other in the tent. I had this question in my head from when Carls dad walked out of that truck, "what was your da job? And how did he get shot?" I ask, wanting to get rid of this question that i didn't have the answer for. Then Carl explained all about how his dad was a sheriff and that he got shot a few months before the world ended.

"You could sleep if you would like" Carl says out of nowhere, I turn my head towards him and loo at him and then he adds, "there is enough space here, and I'm sure my mom won't mind. An it's probably for the best that you don't sleep alone" Carl says now also looking at me. "I-i -.. thank you Carl, if that's okay with your mom" I say smiling at his generous offer.

Me and Carl get out of the tent and search for lori to ask her if it' okay that I stay the night wth them in there tent. "There she is" Carl points towards his mom who is now walking  in the direction of the tents, probably reasonable, because its almost dark. Carl grabs my hand to pull me with him towards his mom, at that contact I could feel butterflies in my stomach. But it's probably nothing right I mean I'm 11 he is 12 we're both young.

"Mom!" Carl yells out, "yes honey" she says looking at Carl while we came to a stop infront of her. "Can Madi say the night at our tent? Because otherwise she will be alone and we have enough space in our tent" Carl asks his mom. "Ofcourse you can dear, just get your pillow and blanket" Lori says now looking at me with a nice smile. Lori is such a beautiful woman I think, she has long brown hair and bron eyes, a beautiful face structure. I think she could hav been a model if it weren't for the apocalypse. "Thank you so much Lori" I say thankful, "that o problem dear, now you and Carl get your stuff and set them in the tent so you 2 can go to bed" at this me and Carl begin running towards my tent.

"hum can you take that blanket to your tent, will come in a sec with my pillow I just need to change into my pyjamas" I say, "yeah sure, but hurry up!" Carl says and grabs my blanket and begins going back towards his own tent. I change into my pyjama and grab my pillow and my koala that I had since I was a baby it was the only thing my parents left for me when I was born. I sleep with it every night, I also always wonder who my parents are, and if their still alive or maybe one of them is dead and is alive, and maybe they gave me away because they didn't want  a child or because they didn't have enough money. And what if they were alive before and maybe have gotten eaten by a walker? Well I will never know the answers to those questions. But maybe i don't even need to know the answers.
