"Carol at Alexandria?" he asked.
Rick looked up, but immediately looked away again when he met Daryl's eyes briefly.
Everybody was quiet. They were walking back to Alexandria. Feeling defeated after the murder of Glenn by Negan. He had let them go after that, having made his point. Now they were all wondering what was going to happen. They would have to deliver Negan and his group half of everything they had: food, guns, and medicine. They would not survive winter with only half their rations.
Daryl had been the same as the rest of them. Stunned and defeated, quietly walking when he noticed once again that Carol was not with the group. Back then he had only felt a small moment of relief when he noticed she wasn't captured, but was soon filled with horror and anger at the further developments of the night. He did not have the time to think about her not being there and not being selected by Negan. Now that they were walking back he remembered Carol once again when he tried to look for her face within the group.
Rick's reaction didn't tell him much, and he left him alone. Thinking it might not be the moment to ask about people who had escaped being there surrounded by Negan's people, waiting to be picked to be beaten to death by that bat. Everybody's thoughts were with Glenn and their uncertain future survival. She was probably in Alexandria, anyway. She did not come after him, and she had not joined Rick's group to bring Maggie to Hilltop.
He looked around when he thought of Maggie. She was being carried by Abraham and looked terrible and sick. She had lost consciousness after screaming. She would lose the baby probably. No way that they would get to Hilltop in time after this. Negan had told them to leave their car. So they had to walk back to Alexandria before they could get a new car, to get to Hilltop.
