Hello everybody! This is just an idea I had bouncing around in my head today that I decided to go ahead and write down Not sure how many chapters there will be yet. Hope you enjoy!
Glenn's point of view:
Ever since Enid had pointed a gun in my face I knew we were going to get along great. After all, isn't that how most great relationships start these days? But never in a million years did I ever think that I'd be asking her to become a part of my family.
Over the last few months Enid and I had grown to be good...friends?Buddies?Fellow survivors? I don't quite know what we were but the point is we got along. She lived with all the other single ladies in the house next to mine and Maggie's and was constantly looking for every excuse to come over and deliver some "super majorly important news" to us and all the other members of our group that were living with us. The way Enid saw it we were the people who knew the truth about the world now and she could relate more to us than the sheltered Alexandrians.
Today she had come over for one such visit and was just starting up a game of Operation with Carl. I listened to their conversation from the sink where Maggie had me doing the dishes. From what I could tell from all the buzzing neither one of them were very good surgeons.
"You know it's sad." Enid said handing the tweezers to Carl.
"What? That were so bad at this game?"Carl asked.
"No,It's sad that this is the only form of entertainment we have right now. I mean come on, I know we have to conserve electricity for heat and all, but seriously I'd kill for a chance to watch a movie about now." Enid lamented. Carl nodded in agreement.
"Me too." I said. "Maybe we can convince Rick to let us watch one tonight if we tell him it will improve morale."
"That would be cool." said Carl.
"Ya' know what would improve my morale?" Daryl asked entering the kitchen and grabbing an apple from the bowl on the table.
"If Carol makes cookies?" Carl offered.
"I know."Enid spoke up. "You'd be happy if the baby shut-up and Carol stopped telling you to take a shower." I laughed. Enid always put things so matter of factly.
"Ha ha very funny. That's exactly what I was gonna' say..." Daryl chuckled hopping up on the counter and biting in to his snack. I glared at him. He was filthy from hunting and was getting dirt all over the counter.
"Got it!"Carl shouted jumping up from his chair.
"Great job,Carl"Enid said sarcastically, "You can play a simple kids game." Then she proceeded to remove "butterflies in the stomach" on the first try as Carl watched in awe.
"Well I gotta' go. Aaron wants to have a meetin' about our next recruitin' trip." Daryl said hitting the floor with a thud. Carl muttered something about a stupid game as Enid extracted the last piece from their patients body.
"Come on, Sport. It's just a game." Enid teased. "No one really cares if you got beat by a girl." I couldn't help but chuckle. Even Carl smiled.
"Real men know how to lose." I added. Enid nodded in agreement. Carl glanced at his watch.
"Oh crap! I'm late for watch!I was supposed to be there 10 minutes ago!" he exclaimed,quickly pulling on his boots and grabbing his gun. The door slammed with a bang.
"Guess it just us huh?" Enid asked. I finished drying the last fork and sat down at the table across from her.
"Yup. Anyway, I've been wanting to talk to you about something. Got a minute?" I asked.
"Sure, Rhee. What's up?" she said as she put the lid on the game's box.
"Maggie and I have been thinking. You're over here with us more than anyone at your place and it sorta doesn't make sense for you to live over there anymore. We've talked it over with Rick and-"
"You want me to move over here?" she cut me off.
"Not exactly...We do want you to move here but that's not all we want." she gave me a strange look. "Maggie and I want you to be a part of our family."
"Um-" she started with a confused expression.
"We want to adopt you."
Sorry it's so short! The next chapter will be longer I promise! Chapter 2 will be from Enid's point of view. Don't forget to leave a review! ~
