When I told Edwin, he cried. But I said I am sorry and I walk away. I sighed when I walk out. I walk outside to take a deep breath, when I look out to where the horses were at I saw Alex. He was just petting them all, and it was nice to see something live for once.

I walk up to Alex and the horses. There is always a horse that seems to attach to me, he is a black and white horse. So, I calmly pet him or I think her. Alex hands me a carrot and o fed the carrot to it.

"How do you know if it is a boy or a girl?" I asked.

"Just look under." Alex chuckled. So I did and whoa I could tell that this horse was a he."

"Well he's handsome." I laughed back.

"It sure is nice out here." Alex said.

After petting the horses, I had to do watch. Watches aren't that fun, but that what I have to do; although, while I do watch the oldest boy watches me. It gets on my nerves a lot to be honest. He probably what... Twelve? Anyways it is annoying sometimes I mean and tell him to go away.

"Hey kiddo." Beckett said.

"What do you want old man?" I asked.

"So Edwin wants to talk to you crabby." He said.

"Is he alright?" I asked.

"He's stable." Beckett said.

I head upstairs to the old man's room. He was indeed stable, he look a lot better than anyone I have seen before. He smiled at me when I came in and offered me to sit. So, I sit down and he starts talking about how his wife was right. His kids and grandkids needs to start doing this stuff. Learning how to kill the zombies.

"I need you to teach them." Edwin said.

"But you will behind everyone else." I said.

"Yes but they are young."

"Old man, you serious about me training your eight year old granddaughter." I said.

"Please."

"I'll have to talk to uncle Beckett about it first." I said.

"Whatever you have to do."

Great, I'll probably be a fucking teacher....

I walk back outside Beckett looking at the property. It was still so beautiful even at night time. Sometimes this would remind me the time the three of us live in the cabin. It was calm and peaceful, but that part is over.

"So what did Edwin want?" He asked.

"He wants me to teach everyone how to fight." I answered.

"You?" He asked.

"I mean if you want to go for it."

"I think I will."

"Well I'll go break the little old man's heart Beck."

"W-wait you want to?"

"He asked me."

"Well what is in for us?"

"Beck don't be an ass."

He ended it there. I don't know why he was so concern about me teaching people who to teach how to defend from themselves from zombies. Hell he is the one that taught me a lot of this shit. Maybe he is jealous?
