Hey sorry for taking so long to update this. Thank you for the people that reviewed and read my last chapter. Love reading your reviews. Also any ideas that you have are always appreciated xx
It had been exactly one week and Dakota has been on edge the whole time, Her whole group had.
Maggie was still and reck , she barely came out of her room. Rosita had gone on a scavenging hunt with Tara and had brought a decent size loot back . Tara being there to stop her going to Negans base.
Dakota stayed in her room for most of the week , she was too worried about seeing people now they knew about her dad. She was genuinely going to stay for as long as possible until Michonne persuaded her to come down for Glenn and Abes memorial they were doing. Dakota had slowly walked to the gathering behind the houses , she was scared of being blamed for the deaths. She gulped as she saw The make shift crosses with there names carved in and no bodies to fill there graves.
She saw Rick look up at her and smile briefly , everyone turned there heads when they saw Dakota lingering behind them. They all turned and smiled sadly at her. It was an awful moment in there lives , they were "burying" there brothers. Even the Alexandrian's who didn't know Glenn and Abe as well as the others were devastated. They both touched lives by being kind to them and protecting them and bringing them food.
After the memorial was over Dakota hung back as she still didn't want to see many people. She felt so guilty, she kept thinking that everyone must blame her . Everyone had gone there separate ways now and she was the only one left in the garden. She walked over to there graves and felt her heart clench, she kneeled down and sobbed. She sobbed over not seeing them anymore and the Fact that her dad had been the one to do it to them.
She tensed as she felt someone come behind her and her eyes widened as she saw it was Maggie. She held her breath not knowing what was going to happen. Maggie knelt beside her and slowly run her hand over the cross that had Glenn's name on. Dakota looked over Maggie worriedly, she had never seen her look so bad, her eyes were puffed up and she clearly hadn't slept or eaten much this week. She didn't know what to say to the widow.
"You know when you all came to my Daddy's Farm, I didn't think we would ever have to leave it and now in a matter on a few years we're here and so, so much has happened. I never thought I'd be without my whole Family"
Dakota clenched her eyes tightly shut , the guilt consuming her.
"Maggie I..I.." she just didn't know what to say,
Maggie stood up wiping her hands on her trousers, Dakota followed and the pair looked at each other.
"I know you feel guilty Rick told me , but you have no reason too. I can't believe that he's your dad but I believe that you didn't know that either"
"Oh god I didn't! I knew they had the same name but never ever did I think it could be him! I am So sorry I honesty don't know what to say. I loved Glenn… and Abe. They were our family and I can't imagine what your going through. I am 100% on your side like I always have been"
Maggie smiled as much as she could with what was going on.
"Rosita found a lot of stuff for them to take when they come today, we will have to do what they say until we can get a good plan behind us so we can attack. We ARE going to Kill him Dakota. Will you still be on our side even then?"
Dakota's heart lurched at the thought of them killing her Dad but she looked down at the graves and knew that he wasn't the same man she called Dad , he was a monster!
She held her head up and said firmly
"Yeah I'll be ready!"
