The morning sun filtered through the dense canopy as a horse-drawn carriage crunched to a halt on the dirt path, blocking you and Daryl’s way. Dust swirled in the air, settling on the leather harness of the two horses. Carol Peletier leaned out from the driver’s seat, a knowing smirk playing on her lips as she eyed the father and daughter. Her eyes flicked briefly to Henry, who stood nervously nearby, before returning to the newcomers. The atmosphere was tense yet curious, the silence broken only by the panting of the dogs. Carol chuckled warmly, her voice cutting through the quiet woods. “Need a ride, strangers?” she asked, gesturing to the empty seats in the carriage, unaware of the crush simmering beneath the surface.
