How it was

The Truth Comes Out

I was there maybe a couple of minutes before Daryl showed up. He walked up slow and when he finally reached me, cleared his throat and leaned up against a tree.

"What's going on?" he asked in a calmly manner. I felt tears threaten to leave my eyes. I never cried. I felt that it made me weaker. But now, I was about to. I shrugged and shook my head as tears escaped my eyes.

"You wanna tell me what is goin on?" he said, getting slightly angry. I stood up to face him.

"I got your message." He looked at me, his with a confused expression.

"I'm tired of this bullshit!" Daryl screamed all of a sudden, angry. My head snapped up at him and I felt anger rising up in me as well.

"What do you mean, Daryl Dixon? You're tired of what," I began as I got up and edged my way closer to him, pushing him,"Dealing with a crazy person? Dealing with something you don't want? Dealing with someone pathetic like me? Well you know what? You can act like you don't know what I'm talking about, but I know you do." I had to take a breath for a second. I glanced down at my hands and saw that they were shaking. But no matter that, I felt strong. I felt like I needed to get this out of my system. And Daryl could play dumb with me all he wanted but I was not about to let this go.

I continued,"I know you sent Carol to tell me that I creeped you out. Well, let me tell you Daryl Dixon that was real pathetic and low-" he cut me off, holding up a hand and waving off everything I was saying.

"What the hell do you mean, Danae? I didn't send Carol to do shit!" he yelled back. I instantly became confused; all anger flushing out of my body.

"I thought-"

He shook his head,"Nu-uh."

I pursed my lips and put my hand up to my chin deep in thought,"So, why would she come up to me and tell me that you told her to tell me that I creeped you out?"

He didn't even answer but instead, started walking back towards the farm.

"What're ya doin?" I asked him, innocently. I knew what he was going to do. I was just hoping that I could calm him down alittle.

"Goin back to ask Carol what the hell's going on," he replied. I knew he was still angry. I just hoped this accusal wouldn't be too bad. But after what I had just found out, I was livid with Carol. Why the hell would she lie to me? Unless. . .
