Chapter 41: October 6th

Annas POV

"Who's your cousin, huh?"

Kerry stood there nervously.

She looked at me, then looked at Daryl.

And then Daryl spoke up.

"Before you got to the prison Anna, the governor and his army came and paid us a visit. Kerry was with his group, but not his army and-"

Daryl got cut off by Kerry.

"I'm not related to the governor, but me and my father, and my cousin, lived in Woodbury."

"What's so crazy about your cousin being with my dad?" Carl said.

"It's not bad, but it won't be a wonderful reunion," Kerry said.

By this point I was already really confused.

"Hangon, I'm confused-"

I said but got cut off by Ty.

"I don't get it either."

Lizzie and Gray came down the stairs.

"We'll talk about it later." Daryl said.

"What's goin on?" Lizzie says, holding onto the railing of the stairs.

"Nothing" Kerry was quick to say.

"You guys are weird." Lizzie said with a smirk.

Then she got a huge smile on her face like she remembered something she was gonna say.

"Oh yeah! The dollhouse is awesome! I've never been so excited in months!"

Then her face turned cold at the rememberance of that day.

She sure remembers it, and everyone else in this world does too.

That day was the worst day and the most packed day of my entire life. I'm sure anyone could agree with me on that.

I lost my house, my mother, my clothes, toys, and my hope for everything. Then I found the prison, and I got hope. The day I saw Glenn in that tower and the short gray haired lady who I now know is Carol, letting me inside the prison. I just know that date will be in history forever.

October 6th.

Daryl calls us to the middle of the store.

"The suns almost set. First thing in the morning, we head to the sanctuary."

We all nod and lay down on the floor. Lizzie lays down next to me, holding her doll in her hands. Carls facing the other way on the other side of me. His dark brown hair is so long it flows onto the floor in front of him. We grabbed blankets,  since its kinda cold out. Me, Carl, and Lizzie are sharing one big blanket. Daryl says he's gonna keep watch, he never sleeps. Carol is on the chair watching Daryl. Grayson was already passed out on the floor in the corner by the chair that Carols sitting in.

It's got to be around September, because the leaves are starting to change. And if it is September, it will almost be a year since that day.
