FORGIVE

3 months later...

Karen opened the gates and watched as Rick, Daryl, Abraham, Sasha, and a couple others drive out of Alexandria and down the road. She then closed the gates and sighed.

She then locked the gates and walked off, switching posts with Jackson, one of the Alexandrians.

"Karen, wait up!" Karen turned around to see Ron running towards her.

"Hey."

"Hey. Have you seen Enid?" Karen shook her head before he nodded. "You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm just heading back to my house." She responded before Ron nodded and walked with her to her house.

Enid walked up to Karen's door and went to knock but the door flung open and an angry Ron stepped out of the house.

"You better talk to your friend or I will." Ron threatened before he walked away. Enid rolled her eyes before she entered the house. Enid heard crying coming from the living room and she walked over to it.

"Enid?" Karen looked up at Enid and jumped up from the couch and hugged Enid tightly.

"What happened?" Enid asked as Karen shook her head and cries softly.

"I can't do this without Carl." Karen said as Enid sighed; knowing exactly what she meant. Enid knew about the two's break up and felt bad for both of them. Enid gestured for them borh to sit down and Karen acknowledged.

"Karen, what did Ron do?" Enid asked as Karen began to sob quietly. "Karen, I can't help you if you don't tell me what he did."

"He tried to rape me, Enid! He tried to get his hands inside of my pants! And when I told I didn't want to, he hit me, told me that I will give him what he want! Like I said, I can't do this without Carl! I can't have all these men chasing after me because they don't see me with Carl! I just...can't." Enid blinked away her own tears before she hugged Karen, trying to comfort the girl taht she called a sister.

Karen, with a broken mind and heart, broke down in painful tears right then and there. She thought about the times her and Carl had together.

Showing him how she shot a gun.

When she got sick.

When they reunited after the prison.

Terminus.
