THREE WOMEN — ELLA, LORI AND MAGGIE — WERE CUTTING UP FOOD FOR LUNCH TODAY. Ella didn't think the chicken look right, but Lori told her that it was fine sometimes the chicken just looked a little gray especially when while its the end she of the world, and Maggie agreed with that statement of Lori's.

After Hershel patched Randall up and they talked about Randall, Ella saw Glenn and Maggie whispering to each other in the kitchen, which honestly made her really jealous.

Ella chopped up fruits for the fruit salad they'd be making. It was going to be delicious and fantastic. Ella couldn't wait to dig in to the salad after they made it. Honestly just thinking about the fruit salad made her mouth water up.

Ella felt someone's presence stop in front of the kitchen door, causing her to look up to see Glenn. She waved at him with a smile and he awkwardly waved back, before he ran away to go do some chores.

Sighing, Ella began to slam her knife into the cutting board while she chopped foods up. "Lori, did Rick say anything about why Glenn's been so weird since they got back from that town?"

"Just that it had gotten bad," Lori replied. "He didn't say anything about Glenn and his odd behavior." 

Ella laid the fruits in a glass bowl. "I'm worried about him. He's been very different," Ella looked at Maggie. "I saw you two talking the day they got back. What did you talk about?"

Maggie sniffed. "Said he froze. Blames you. Said you got in his head like the day I tried to hook up with him."

Ella laughed. "Why?"

"He came back, that's all that matters," Lori told Ella. "Men have to do certain things, you know that, and they're either gonna blame the little woman as the reason they do 'em or the reason they don't," Lori moved around the kitchen. "I'll tell you something — what happens out there happens out there — and we we're just trying to keep it together till they get back."

Ella leaned forward. "But things between him and I were good. . . I probably just did-"

"Ella, no you didn't do anything. . . I think he just wants to express himself to you, but he doesn't want to because he also blames you for causing him to run away from Rick and Hershel when they were getting shot at because he didn't want you to have go through more pain of losing someone else." Maggie told Ella.

"That's nicely put," Lori ate a chip. "But I think her shouldn't be blaming you for his actions, his decisions and his feelings. That's not something you apologize for. Now, would you have anything else to apologize for?"

Ella shook her head.

"I say tell him to pull himself together and man up," Lori shrugged. "But don't directly tell him to 'man up'. That'll hurt his feelings." she laughed, the other two laughed as well.
