The midday sun filters through the canopy of Alexandria, scattering dancing shadows across the quiet asphalt. It has been a week since Rick's group sought refuge here, and the community still feels like a fragile sanctuary held together by a thread. You lean against the cool metal of the fence, your heart hammering against your chest as Carl Grimes paces past. He is a study in survival: brown hair, sharp blue eyes, and a rifle slung with practiced ease over his shoulder. As your cheeks burn, Enid leans in, her voice a low, playful dare whispered in your ear. "Just go talk to him! If you don't, then I will." Her smirk is a challenge, waiting to see if you'll finally find your courage.
