"Where are Carl and Glenn?"
Because they were so engrossed in the conversation along the way, Maggie and Beth walked to the third area, and Beth realized that Carl and Glenn behind them were gone.
"Who cares about those two guys? The air is nice in the morning." Maggie walked in front holding Judith, lying on her back and taking a deep breath of air.
"I still think the air on the farm is fresher." Beth pouted and followed Maggie.
Maggie turned her head and smiled, "Beth, I know you will miss the countryside. Yes, in fact, I miss it sometimes too. Although we have belittled it in every way, it is our home after all. But Beth, that is in the past. This is our home now. In such an environment, we still have time and space to roam freely. We should be satisfied."
"I know, I just miss it a little. I haven't been out for a long time. The road must be covered with fallen leaves." Beth looked at the outside world through the barbed wire, a little absent-minded.
"I remember you used to hate those leaves," Maggie laughed.
"I won't always hate what I hate, sometimes I will miss it."
"Yeah, sometimes the things we hate are worth remembering."
Maggie seemed to recall some past events, and her expression was a little gloomy.
"Hey, what are you guys talking about?"
At this time, Glenn and Carl finally caught up.
"Talk about how stupid you are." Maggie rolled her eyes at Glenn.
"Uh..." Glenn scratched his head.
"Maggie, you're a little too strong." Beth patted Maggie's hand.
Glenn quickly smirked and said, "It's okay. I just like Maggie to be more assertive."
"What's wrong? Do you want to go out for a look?" Carl walked up to Beth and asked softly.
"It's okay, no, it's just a little..." Beth shook her head quickly.
"If you want, you can go out now and I'll take you for a ride." Carl said with a smile.
"But... isn't it said that it's very dangerous outside? There are zombies? I don't want to cause trouble for others." Beth was a little hesitant, but also a little excited.
"No, as long as there aren't too many zombies, there won't be a big problem. And there generally aren't too many. Even if there are a lot, their speed can't catch up with the car."
Karl said gently, "You really haven't been out for a long time. Although I want you to be safe, if you want, as long as it's not too dangerous, I will do my best."
"Look at him, then look at you." Maggie glared at Glenn again.
However, Judith in his arms seemed a little dissatisfied at this moment. She kept moving around, and her unclear voice seemed a little hurried.
Maggie quickly lowered her head, gently shook Judith, and comforted her, "Little arrogant girl, be good, don't make trouble, don't make trouble..."
"Forget it, Judith is still here." Beth finally refused with some regret.
"Okay, let's wait until Judith is not around. I also think it's a very romantic thing to walk together on a road covered with fallen leaves." Carl said with a smile.
Glenn, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and quickly put on a smile, "Herschel, Dale, good morning."
In front, Hershel and Dale were chatting and walking leisurely side by side. The two old men, who were not too far apart in age, must have a lot of common topics.
"Good morning, why are you all here?" Hershel was slightly stunned when he looked at the people in front of him.
"Haha, guys are full of energy. Good morning, everyone." Dell said with a smile.
"Good morning, two old gentlemen. I hope you are in good health recently." Carl also walked up and greeted them.
"Haha, you can still be strong for two years, Carl. What are you busy with? It's not easy to see you." Dell teased.
"Judith is here too, come and let me see her." Dale couldn't help but stretch out his hands when he looked at Judith.
"Carl, how are you doing?" Hershel asked.
"That's fine. Of course, I hope you get better as you get older," Carl said with a smile.
"Indeed, ever since the epidemic was over, I have always thought that we live in a paradise. Even if the outside world is the end of the world, we can still live a leisurely and comfortable life here."
Hershel didn't seem relaxed when he said this, but rather felt inexplicably heavy.
Carl still smiled, a lot of gentle smiles, and said;
"Old man, relax, all your worries will be taken care of by others, you just need to relax a little and spend a leisurely old age here.
You can take a walk like you are doing now, or if you want to reminisce about the past, you can pick a gentle mare and ride around here. This place is not small.
When you are bored, you two old men can chat and brag, or play chess? I remember Sean has a chess set, I will steal it for you when I have the chance. "
"I'm a little tired, old buddy, do you want to go back?" Hershel looked at Dale.
"Isn't it still early?" Dale was reluctant to let go of Judith in his arms, but in Hershel's insistent eyes, Dale could only helplessly return Judith to Maggie.
Carl looked at the backs of the two old men leaving and frowned slightly. Hershel seemed to realize that something was wrong with him.
But thinking from another angle, it seems that only Hershel noticed it, which is also a good thing.
"Carl, Beth, we have to go too. If we delay any longer we'll have to prepare lunch, and I want Glenn to ride a few laps on the horse."
Maggie handed Judith to Beth, said goodbye to Carl, and left with Glenn.
"Are you tired from walking?" Carl asked.
"Not bad, not tired." Beth shook her head.
"Give Judith to me. I seldom hold her in my arms. I am a somewhat incompetent brother." Carl smiled helplessly.
"Be careful not to drop Judith." Beth handed Judith to Carl.
Carl smiled and said, "No, maybe I should hug more and gain some experience for our future children."
"Little devil, huh..." Beth's laughter was totally a sneer.
"Haha, Judith, she said you are a little brat. Beth is so bad to say such things about our Judith." Carl walked with his head down looking at Judith in his arms.
Perhaps it was because of their blood connection, or perhaps Judith could sense that Karl liked her, Judith was very well behaved in Karl's arms, smiling at him all the time, and even reaching out to grab Karl's face.
Carl did not resist and let Judith's hands touch his face. Beth watched the scene with a smile, just like a real family of three.
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly, a faint voice came from the side. Carl frowned slightly, raised his head and looked in the direction where the voice came from.
"Liz? What's wrong?"
Liz walked closer, looked at Judith in Carl's arms, and asked, "Can I hold her?"
"Hello, Liz." Beth greeted with a smile. Although Liz did not respond, Beth continued, "If you want to hug her, you must..."
"No, you can't hug her." Carl interrupted Beth.
Beth looked at Carl with some confusion.
Carl looked at Liz with a look that seemed calm but was actually very dangerous, and Liz met Carl's gaze.
