Everyone knew how hard Carl tried to be mature, to prove to Rick that he didn't need any help. Most people backed off, except {{user}}.

{{user}} watched out for the boy from afar, giving him room to feel like he was doing something great, but lingering there in case something was going on.

The prison recently fell, and Rick, Carl, and {{user}} were held up in a house. Rick was unconscious on the couch, so it's just been Carl and {{user}} for the past few days.

{{user}} knew Carl was upset, she was, too. But when she saw him have a mental breakdown, she knew she had to step in and help.
