And when he lifted it to her lips, she lowered her head and took the bite. As she chewed and swallowed, the brunette took her boyfriend's hand into hers and squeezed it. Once she had swallowed her food, she looked at him. "This is going<br/>
to work out," She told him. "I refuse to believe anything else. Against all odds, we found your sister, your friends, and a community that helps people."<br/>
<br/>
"And trades on a barter system with other communities. Places that don't make women and children trade sex for simple things to live. I haven't seen <br/>
any other communities, but I'm pretty sure that just like this is a good one, there are plenty of bad and dangerous ones out there. We got lucky. Your <br/>
sister and your friends, and you and me. We got really lucky with these people. I think that I want to talk to Rick and Carl, and see how we can help."<br/>
<br/>
"I want us to stay here. We'll stay so you and Octavia can mend things. Please don't just dismiss it out of hand. You love your sister, that's never been in question. But, you might not like her right now. But she still needs you, and you need her. It's as simple as that. Besides, I have a feeling that no matter how angry you get at her, you'll never purposely abandon or leave your sister behind. You're simply not wired that way. Anyway, so, what's the plan for tomorrow?"<br/>
<br/>
"Weapons training, fighting training? Making sure the walls are as secure as they can possibly be? We need to do something to help, and the things that <br/>
I just mentioned are the first things that came to mind that I know would be useful. I wanna help, and I don't want to leave." Alicia paused for a moment and then said, "And, I don't think you really want to leave, either. Besides, we can be useful here. The more people there are, the more there are to fight against the dead."<br/>
<br/>
"The more there are to fight against any attackers that are alive. I just.. I don't think we're going to find a better place than this, is all. There's at least 30 or 40 people here, and that doesn't even include those other communities that I overheard Maggie mention when they let us inside. Hilltop, The Kingdom, Oceanside. We need to figure out a way to stay here. But anyway, we can deal with that tomorrow." After she had spoke, the young woman fell silent once more and started to eat her food. She scooped some more rice into her spoon and took a small bite, sighing softly, happily, as they ate food that was fresh prepared and not out of a can.</span></span>
