Losing my mind

14. Silence

Merle had us tied up in separate rooms, in a warehouse?. I don't even know what the hell it is.

My wrists were tied to the chair handles and my legs were tied to the legs.

I tried pulling at the duct tape but I was tied down hard.

I tried again and I sighed, no luck.

I stopped trying to escape when I heard muffled sounds.

I listened, it sounded like Glenn.

And Merle.

"Fuck" I said angrily

Merle wasn't the nicest, to anyone. He was always out drink doing drugs or in juvy.

He never cared.

He left me and Daryl, after I got old enough I started to leave for a week then go back or else I'd get in "trouble", like my old man even cared.

He just wanted a punching bag.

I heard a door slam and footsteps headed my way. I started to get out of my restrains but failed.

The door opened and in walked Merle.

He slowly walked up to me.

"Why are y'all here?" Merle asked

I held a straight face.

"I just beat the shit out of the Korean boy" he said

"And I just might have the farmers daughter"

I bit the inside of my cheek. Show no emotion.

"Now tell me where your camp is" he stated more than asking

I sighed then stared at him, then back at the door.

My head jolted to the side when I felt his fist connect with my eye.

"Tell me where my brother is" he punched me again

"Tell me where the sheriff is!" He punched my lip. Then my eye then my nose. I heard it crack then blood fished out.

I already had blood in my mouth.

After an awful beating he left. I shook my head.

I pictured him touching Maggie, I tried to pull at the duct tape. My wrists were bloody now. The tape actually started cutting through my skin.

I heard a bang, it sounded like someone kicked a wall or door.

My heart stopped when I heard a walker moan.

I could barely heard what's going on, I'm pretty sure Maggie is in the room next to me. And Glenn's room is next to hers.

I heard struggling and things falling.

Then. Silence.

I closed my eyes.

Come on Glenn, show me your alive.

I heard a yell from Glenn. He yelled like he could defeat anything.

I finally started to breath again.

After a half an hour, I heard a door open and close. The room Maggie was in.
