Katie's POV
Is this real?
A little girl ran up to me and engulfed me in a hug.
"I missed you mommy." She whispered loudly.
"Mommy?" Glenn repeated strangely, while stepping backwards.
"I missed you so much kitty." A man kneeled next to me an hugged me and macy in a hug.
"Nathan.. How did you find me? Why do you have macy?" I asked him softly.
"I went to your mothers after this all happened. She had Lilly and macy." When he said that my face instantly lit up.
I stood to my feet while still holding the little girl close to me.
"Where are they?" I asked, not being able to hide my smile.
He looked at me with remorse.
"Are they still at the house?" I asked softly.
He shook his head.
My eyes started to well up with tears, by I didn't let them fall.
"Are they still alive?" My voice cracked at the end.
He looked at the ground.
"No." I whispered, "no, no, no." I set macy down and put my hands into my hair.
"When I got there... your mom was already bit... I had Lilly for a little while, but she uh.. She um.. She couldn't outrun them." He whispered the last part.
This can not be happening. My mom and my little sister are gone? No..
"Kitty." He reached his hand forward to touch my arm, but I flinched back.
"Don't be like that." He whispered, trying again.
I pulled away and started to walk backwards.
"Don't touch me.. You're a monster!" I screamed at him.
"You got her killed! You killed lily!" I started to breathe rapidly.
"It wasn't my fault." He tried to explain.
"She was just a little girl." I whispered.
My head started to spin as I stumbled a little.
"Kit? It's okay kit, I'm right here." Glenn put his hands on my arms to steady me.
"Glenn.. Where lily? Why isn't she here?" I just couldn't accept the fact she was gone.
"Kit.. She's gone. I'm sorry." He whispered to me.
"Hey man! Don't touch her." Nathan came over and pushed Glenn back.
"Who they hell are you?" Glenn snapped back.
"I'm her boyfriend." Nathan added.
I shook my head vigorously, "no, no you're not."
"What? I saved your little girl." He looked hurt.
"I hate you! I hate you so much." I told him.
Daryl came over to me and put his hand at the small of my back, I'm guessing to comfort me.
"Leave her alone Nathan. Obviously she doesn't want you." Glenn tried to lead him away.
"Who is this guy kitty?" Nathan asked me, pointing to a very hurt looking Glenn.
I started at him until I mustered up the courage to go off on him.
Daryl removed his hand and backed off a little, but not too far.
