"Dad!" I scream, as I see my dad, sitting on his bed, crying.

"Don't come near me, I don't want you to see me like this." He says, sniffling, his back still facing me.

A walkers body lay dead on the floor, but fresh blood stains it's jaw.

Presumably my parents blood, as my Dad's neck had a deep bite mark engraved in his skin.

"Take this." he says, dropping a key beside him.

"What is it?" I ask intrigued.

"Go to the warehouses a mile north, you'll get every thing you need." He explains.

"Warehouse 14." he says, still not making eye contact with me. "go."

I walk behind him, and hug him from behind.

"I'm sorry." he says, as I bury my head into his neck.

"It's okay." I say, leaving the room.

Carl stands outside, glossy eyes, almost speechless.

"Let's go into the kitchen, grab some knives, medicine, food." I say, walking down the stairs.

"There's some rucksacks in the cupboard, grab 2." I say, rummaging through the kitchen draws.

Carl didn't speak, just followed what I said.

"I'm sorry for your loss." he suddenly speaks, causing reality to come crashing back down for me.

"It's okay. They weren't the best parents." I say, emptying the knife rack.

"Chuck me a rucksack." I say, grabbing some paracetamol, and bandages.

Carl does as I said, throwing a rucksack in my direction.

I catch it, piling our resources in.

"Come on, let's go." I say, handing him a knife.

"okay. I leave about half a mile away from here, I want to see if my family is alive." Carl says.

"Sure. we go to your house, then the warehouse." I say, gripping the knife tightly.

"Follow me." he says, and I follow his direction.
