Save Me

2. Who?

A crisp Autumn morning. Molly is getting ready for another supply run with Sasha and Abraham. She packs lightly, thinking that she will only be gone a couple hours.

That morning was so beautiful, cool yet crisp. It felt as though change was coming and I hoped it would be for the better.

Sasha had asked me the night before if I would come on a supply run with her and Abraham and of course I agreed.

It was always refreshing to get out and kill some walkers and come back with the bacon.

While Abraham was loading up the car, I asked Maggie if she needed anything, maybe some more prenatal pills.

She thanked me, we hugged and I told her I would see her soon.

I remember being so happy about Maggie's pregnancy but with Glenn still not having returned after going on a supply run with Nicholas, Maggie was already stressed enough and she told me she needed me to stay here.

But I promised her I would only be gone a couple hours and then I would be right back.

So we three set off on the road in the search of meds and food and basically anything we could scavenge.

It took hours before we came across anything that looked remotely untouched when we stumbled along an office.

Apart from stationary and water there wasn't much else.

When we tried to leave we saw too many walkers blocking the exits so we decided to wait until they went away.

I saw that Abraham and Sasha had some talking to do so I made myself scarce to look for meds on the first floor of the building.

Not only did I feel like a major third wheel, but for the first time in a long time I felt a longing.

I longed for a relationship like theirs or something close.

Eugene had tried to flirt with me, he'd already done the same with Tara and while I love Eugene like a brother I could never date the man as I don't understand him most of the time.

Spencer had also flirted with me and seemed to want to follow me around like a lost puppy most of the time but I could never be with someone that spineless who never accepted responsibility for his actions.

So, for now I would be alone.

After all this pondering of my thoughts, checking drawers in the office cubicles I found some aspirin and prenatal pills.

There was a part of me that felt sadness for a moment for the person to whom these pills once belonged and the life that probably didn't make it into the world.

When I made my way back down the stairs, I noticed that the walkers were gone and Abraham and Sasha had finished talking.

We tried to get in touch with Daryl via the walkie talkie but no answer.

Daryl was out hunting and told us he would join us soon.

Little did I know at the time that Daryl had just met Dwight and Sherry.

Abraham was now wearing a blue army blazer with an array of medals attached which he found in one of the offices.

As Abraham used to be a member of the US military, he said it made him feel closer to his past which was lovely.

When it was time to leave, as the walkers had dispersed enough for us to shoot them as we went through, a bunch of guys shot at us as we hopped in a truck and drove off, following us in their cars.
