"That man" I heard a little girl from behind me say. I spun round to see a short girl, about 8 years old, stood in the doorway of the cell. She had blonde hair with a little braid at the front.
"He did this to you didn't he"

Shit.

"No no" I said walking towards her panicking. "He wouldn't hurt me"

"What happened to your face?" She asked innocently "I saw you yesterday when we arrived on the bus. It wasn't like that then"

"I fell during the night. Banged it on the draws" I said nodding towards them.

"Oh" she said tilting her head to the side "wait here, okay?" She said excitedly before running off.

I sat picking at my breakfast while the civilians from cell block B came into the cafeteria. I watched the door as the piled in waiting to see her.
"You think Bella will sit with us for breakfast?" Carl said sitting down next to me.

"I don't know kid" I said looking down at my food.

"I think she's angry at me" Carl said upset.

"What? Why would ya think that?" I frowned turning you him.

"I don't know" he said confused. "I've barely seen her since she came back. I missed her and I thought she missed me too"

Honestly this made me angry. Carl didn't deserved to be ignored. I don't care who this guy was to her, or how awkward it would be for her to see me. She shouldn't do this to Carl.

"She missed you kid. She's just got a new family now" I started off by trying to reassure him but then I turned bitter.

I continued to watch the door noticing her tattooed drug dealer stroll in the canteen looking at me smugly. I tensed up as I continued to scowl at him.

"Morning" he smirked sitting down across from me.

Carol came and sat next to me while my brother sat across from Carol, next to the drug lord himself. Guessing I looked like I needed back up.

"Where's Isabella?" Carol asked giving him a forced smile.

"Still in bed..." he said to Carol before turning to me "we had a lot of catching up to do" he smirked.

I clenched my fist around my fork as I eyed him.

"I'm sure you did" Carl said innocently "been reunited with her after so long, I bet it's nice"

"It was great, kid" he smirked.

I took deep breaths, my eyes not leaving him. His face made my angry. His smirk, his attitude... the fact he had her.

He continued to eat his breakfast while I continued to watch.

"So, how ya gonna pull ya weight around here?" Merle asked from beside him.

"I'm good with a gun" he said looking between Merle and me, trying to threaten us. I'm pretty certain Carl picked up on this as I saw him tense up beside me.

He continued to shovel in mouthfuls while

"Guessing you're the hunter?" He asked looking at Merle.
