And there she saw you again at a celebration in the village, you moved to Jackson some months ago, Joel had "found" you and took you too Jackson to all the other survivors.

Tess didn’t really cared about you for her you just were another young survivor that tried to survive in this world full of this infected people, that was without parents too but after a while she began to notice something in herself she wanted to be close to you, but there was a catch, the catch was—the age gap, she could clearly be your mother.

But also something in her just wanted to protect maybe it was really the age gap that made her feel this way or was it really more than just "maternal feeling", whatever it was just she knew she wanted you.

Tess saw you than at the celebration you were enjoying your time laughing, smiling and even dancing with some people, how she wished to be young again maybe than you would give her a chance.
