Yes, I know I'm about to skip over Mia. Don't worry… It'll all come together. Any plot ideas or suggestions are appreciated! ~A.C~
Carl
I finish skinning with Daryl and walk away feeling rather confident in myself. His advice might work. I strut down the corridor, looking as cool as possible. That was when I ran into my dad.
"What're you so happy about, kiddo?" he asks me.
I stop, looking embarrassed. "Um- nothing."
"Something," he replies.
"Fine. Daryl gave me some advice about how to deal with girls, and I'm following it. Now will ya get off my back?" I reply.
That sounded much surlier than it meant to. Ah, well. What else can you expect?
"Well, can I give you a piece of advice?" he asks
"Sure."
"Just be nice to her. I know Mia, and she wouldn't go for a douchebag. Don't go for the cool approach. Don't try to impress her. She already thinks you're impressive enough."
I chuckle. Two people give me the exact opposite advice. Daryl did say Merle gave him the advice. And Dad does know Mia. Being nice seems to have worked so far. I think I'll need a third opinion. A girl's opinion. I thank Dad for the advice and head over to Beth's cell. Once I get there, I knock and she lets me in.
"Hey, Carl. Need something?" she asks
"Yeah. I need some advice. I like this girl..." I start.
"Do I know her?" she asks
"Not well." I say.
"Alright. Continue," she says.
"I like this girl. How do I get her to like me?" I ask.
"If this girl is anything like me, she won't go for a jerk. So, just be nice. Be yourself," she says.
So Dad was right. I nod and head back to my cell, ready to try out my new advice.
