In the Shirewilt Estates community, as Airon's group walked through the front door of the shelter and out at high speed, a family of four was sitting at the dining room table with a sumptuous meal on the table.
There was a five year old boy, he had an excited expression because he had never seen so much delicious food in a long time, waving his hands excitedly jumping up and down, unable to wait for the moment to eat.
The eldest man of the family sat quietly, looking at everyone already seated.
The eldest daughter of the family was serving the last plate of food in the kitchen.
Before long, the whole family was seated in the dining room, and the oldest man held out his hands to begin praying. After the family finished praying, everyone looked at each other with a slight smile.
"We can eat now!"
"Yes! The food today is amazing!"
The little boy was still looking at the food very excitedly, his mother helped him serve himself the food and then handed him a glass of orange juice.
"Thank you mom! You are all amazing, thank you for the food." The little boy looked at his mother and then smiled at her, unable to wait any longer to eat.
After a while, the family finished the meal in a hushed atmosphere and, halfway through the meal the excited child lay motionless on the table.
There was a cold silence that ran through the room, and the child's parents looked at their daughter who was slowly slumping on the table, but this did not stop them from eating.
The man held a glass of wine and then with his other hand he held his wife, cowardice made him make this decision together with his wife and tears from both of them spilled over their cheeks uncontrollably.
"I love my family so much! When all this started I promised myself that I would not make you witness how terrible the outside world is. Even if I had to make this decision, I take comfort in the fact that you are not suffering."
"My love, did we do the right thing?"
"You did the right thing, you protected this family!"
After a few minutes of silence they both drank the wine in their glasses and the sparkle in their eyes gradually lost its color.
In another room, Ravi's wife was still hugging her husband's cold body, looking at his face with the purest expression of love, as if those memories were vividly in her memory.
But at that moment, Ravi slowly opened his eyes. He looked at his wife, but those eyes had lost all signs of life, his pupils had turned white and his face was completely pale.
His wife didn't mind this at all, she looked at her husband who suddenly woke up and said excitedly, "Ravi! I knew you wouldn't leave me alone, I was sure of that."
After she finished speaking, she hugged her husband tightly, and Ravi in response bit his wife's neck. Blood spurted from her neck, staining the clothes and soon the bed sheets were stained red.
Ravi's wife's eyes lost all signs of life, but her arms still embraced her husband in front of her.
The only sound left in the room was grunting and chewing.
Some stopped fighting, others wanted to die together with the one they love. All had made their decision and it was something that had to be respected.
...
Some time later, Airon's convoy advanced at high speed through a large number of walkers. After driving a few miles, the modified RV came to a slow stop on the side of a road.
Airon wanted to check for damage and verify that the buses are not damaged, it was necessary to know the condition of these vehicles so as not to have problems on the road.
"We have to look for damage!"
With these words, Daryl together with Liam followed Airon. The flashlights in their hands checked mainly the tires of the buses and the gas tank, these areas were the most delicate to take into account after the engine.
"Zz... Is everything in order?"
Airon circled the buses as the people in charge of keeping order responded one after the other and apparently all were in perfect condition.
Apparently most of the bullets hit the modified RV and it was obvious the intentions of those people, so Airon was relieved about that.
Daryl stood to the side as he surveyed the surroundings, Elias took it upon himself to keep an eye out that no one was following them with his large telescopic sight on his rifle.
As time went on everyone was relieved, there seemed to be no problems of any kind and they could continue their journey without any problems.
Daryl, off to the side, held his crossbow and growled angrily, "Those bastards! I'm going to make sure I kill them all if I come across them again."
"We're going to kill them brother, now I'm going to wear body armor!"
Before Merle could finish his sentence, he came out with a green vest and grenades strapped to his chest while in his right hand he held a rifle. Some time later Glenn and T-dog tried to stop him, but Merle managed to get out of the modified RV.
"Oh, Merle! You should get your arm healed first before you want to go to war, I'm sure we'll run into them someday, gotta be the good guys this time."
Airon walked over to Merle who looked a little drunk, he signaled for Glenn and T-dog to take off his vest with the grenades. The whole group was surprised, everyone was tense enough to pay attention to the things Merle was doing.
Merle, with a grin, pointed to the wound on his arm and then said, "Hey, don't you think it's sexy when someone gets hurt? Damn, I just remembered Ravi..."
"Get inside, what the hell are you doing with all those guns out?" Daryl, who was surprised by how his brother came out, reached over and took the rifle out of his hand.
"Alright, let's go back inside, we need to get a considerable distance from those people if we don't want to get shot at again."
Airon smiled as he saw Merle wanting to go fight and Glenn trying to stop him. T-dog was the most nervous of all so he heard the words and agreed to get out of this place.
The whole convoy in no time resumed their journey.
...
That night, at a remote farm, four many large buses and a modified RV with a trailer were parked at a farm. By this time, most of the group had finished eating and had boarded the bus to rest.
In a van outside, Glenn had fallen in love with this vehicle and made sure to clean it out after checking that the gas tank had just over half of it.
Outside the buses, some stood watch so they watched in all directions for anomalies, and Daryl was the one on top of the modified RV.
Sitting on top of the tailgate, Daryl was watching the dark grass in the distance, after all he likes quiet. He doesn't like social environments, if he is in a place where there are more people he prefers to be quiet.
Just as he took out a cigarette and was about to light it, the draft door rang and Airon appeared with two bottles of beer in his hand.
"I told you smoking could make you blind!"
Daryl gave him a sidelong glance, but when he found out it was Airon, he relaxed and said, "You should rest tonight, you haven't been for the last few days."
Airon smiled and said nothing as he handed him a bottle of beer.
"I'm fine, your brother offered me some of a white powder and I'm good as new, wait! That's a joke, haha..."
Airon wanted to make a joke to Daryl, but apparently his sense of humor is really bad just like Glenn's.
"That was a shitty joke..."
"Yes it was..."
Airon nodded with a bit of bitterness, he had gone out of his way to make this joke but apparently Daryl wasn't amused by it at all. After ignoring that, Airon said, "Am I the only one who has noticed that when we go out all sorts of things happen?"
Daryl looked at Airon without saying anything, he did not understand the meaning of these words.
Seeing that the other party did not understand, Airon asked in more direct words, "I mean, are there differences between how I led and the others?"
Obviously there are differences, but Airon was not looking for that obvious answer. So he waited silently for Daryl's answer.
Daryl frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while he said, "Every time we go out we encounter many things, but also new enemies!"
"Yes, that's right." Airon wasn't thinking of anything logical and this he couldn't share with anyone.
Daryl was even more confused, he scratched his head without saying a word, the corner of his mouth twitched, but he kept saying nothing even though he would later confront his brother for sharing your medicine with Airon.
But at this moment, Airon was already deep in his thoughts, he discovered a secret, it seemed to be something he had paid attention to but ignored at the same time!
