She looked back at him and said â€œIâ€™m sorry, I meant no offense, just joking around, and I wonâ€™t do it again.â€ The only thing that seemed to keep Collette sane these days was humor; she had hoped that maybe he wouldnâ€™t take everything seriously from her. â€œI want to go with you.â€ She said, looking back at him as he looked at her. â€œIf there are any survivors left, they sure are hiding well.â€ She said with a laugh, as the mood lifted from serious to a little more light hearted. â€œIf I had given up hope I would have been dead by now. â€œShe smiled as they continued walking.
