Carl was reading the book to the kids. Pearl touching the illustrations whenever she noticed them. Judith interested in everything she hears. Asher listening to Carl read and imagining what must be happening. When Carl had finished reading, he got Pearl off his lap and set her down. He got some food from his backpack and gave all the kids their snacks. Well, Pearl gets milk, but now she is starting to learn to hold the bottle by herself. Carl got some more food out of his backpack and a bottle of water and put it in a bag so it wouldn't rot. He walked farther into the woods. Then he set the food in the usual spot with a sticky note that says "Just in case you need food. Miss you. -Carl." Then he walked off and got back to the tiny camp they have set up.
Later, when all the teens were watching the kids. Carl and Enid were walking down a path near the woods. Enid then smiled and says "I have an idea." Carl looks at her with some confusion and Enid takes out the rollerblades. Carl smiles and says "Rollerblades? Really? How in the hell do you even still have those?" Enid giggles and smiles "I've had them saved for a while." Carl says "Well come on then!" The two teenagers sit down on the ground and put on their rollerblades. Once they got them properly on, they got up, and started skating. Enid was laughing and she looked at Carl. Carl was smiling having the time of his life. He looked over at Enid and then they held hands, intertwining their fingers together. Just like him and Leslie would do. Carl seems to do everything that he used to do with Leslie, with Enid now.
About 3 weeks later. All the teens were chatting on the path, still looking for a new shelter. Killing any walkers in their way, the normal stuff. Carl says "Hey, I'll catch up with you guys. I gotta check out something. All the teens nodded their heads and continued on their journey. Carl went off into the woods and Enid seemed curious as to where he was going. She decided not to follow in case it was something personal. She didn't want to make Carl upset or mad at her. Carl was walking through the woods and he finally stopped at where he was trying to reach. He looked down at the food he left and sighed. "It's been 3 weeks, come on Leslie, give me a sign that you are still okay..." Carl had decided to leave the food there and would still come back again to see if she picks it up. He then got up and decided to catch up with his group.
Later, Everyone set up camp in a different area and was now eating a little bit of food. Carl and Enid were having fun skating and holding hands. They heard some chit chat and decided to go and investigate. They skated all the way to where the noise was coming from. It was a huge truck with people everywhere. They were all holding guns. One girl, about the same age as them was yelling at the people to get in the truck. "GET IN THE TRUCK! YOU WANNA GET SHOT?!" Carl wanted to get a look at her face but she just wouldn't turn around. He immediately thought it was Leslie, same color hair, but her hair wasn't as long as hers. It was up to the middle of her back. Leslie's hair was up to her butt. He had a gut feeling that Leslie may have cut her hair. Enid says "Wow, I really wanna see her face..." The girl kept yelling at the people and was pointing her gun at all of them. "Get inside the truck. Now. Don't make me have to shoot one of you." Carl looks at Enid and says "Enid, I have to follow that truck." Enid looks up at Carl and says "Carl, please, don't go. It can't be her anyways!" Carl keeps looking at the truck and then looks back at Enid and says "Enid, what if that is her? What if she just cut her hair? She probably did. I need to see her again." Enid looks at Carl with puppy eyes and says "Please...don't..." Carl keeps looking at the girl and sighs. "Please...don't be Leslie..." Enid hugs Carl and says "It's not her..." Carl keeps looking and the girl hops on the side of the truck and the truck drives away. Leaving behind a jean jacket that Leslie used to wear. Carl waited until the truck was officially gone and then he ran to where the jacket was. Carl picked it up and says "This is the exact jacket she wore..." Enid looks at the jacket and says "She used to wear that..." Carl looks at the size and says "This is definitely her jacket..."
