I wake up the same way I did the morning before, with Carl in my bed with his arm around my waist. What is going on here? Once again I silently get up so he doesn't wake up.

I put on a pair of short jean shorts, a blue t-shirt, and a pullover black sweatshirt. I brush the tangles out of my hair and leave it down.

I head into the kitchen to help Carol, but surprisingly there is a few Woodbury women in there helping her already. I stand there for a second until Carol turns around and sees me.

"Good Morning." She chirps to me. "This is Karen," She says gesturing to a lady who is probably in her thirties and has black curly hair, "And this is her daughter Jenna."

Jenna is about my age, and has shoulder length dark brown hair. She's a little taller than me, and in a non weird way, she is very pretty.

"It's nice to meet you both." I politely say. "My name is Anna."

They both return the hello and we make small talk for a few minutes until everything is ready.

"So what are you guys doing today?" I ask.

"I've decided to work at the fence." Karen says with a small smile.

"I don't know what I wanna do." Jenna says.

"Do you want to babysit with me?" I ask in an excited voice. I haven't had a friend in so long.

"Ok." She squeals. "I love little kids!"

***********************************

At breakfast Carl sits on my right side and Jenna sits on my left. I introduce the two of them and begin a conversation with Jenna about what we are gonna do to entertain the kids the whole day.

"I mean, we can always just have them draw pictures." I suggest. "We actually have quite a big stock of markers and paper. " I feel a poke on my side.

"What?" I turn to the side and ask Carl.

"Can I babysit with you to?" He asks, blushing just the slightest.

"Aren't you farming today?" I ask him with a questioning look.

"I'm supposed to, but almost ten other people are going to help Herschel."

"Ok." I say suspiciously. "But isn't Rick gonna get mad?"

"I doubt it." Carl shrugs.

"Alright then. I guess you can." I say and give him a small smile.

Breakfast is over now and everyone goes their separate ways. Carl must have gotten lost in the crowd because I don't see him now.

"He totally likes you!" Jenna says.

"Nah. we were just in a massive fight three days ago, and he's just trying to get on my good side now." I say, shrugging slightly.

"C'mon we got kids to look after." I tell her.

We go into cell block "B" where all of the kids were supposed to go.

There looks to be about twenty kids. I Recognize Lizzie and Mika and a few other kids.

"Hi everybody!" I say. "My name is Anna, and this is Jenna." I tell them.

We let everyone color for awhile, and after about a half an hour Carl shows up. I have Judith sitting on my lap, and I'm drawing a picture of a human eye.

"That's actually pretty good." Carl say sitting down beside me and smirking a little. I just shrug. I think he's just trying to be nice to me, which is weird because he hasn't tried to be nice to me in a long time.
