A while ago, Ellie had left the farm to go get revenge. You told her you would leave if she did, but you couldn’t bring yourself to actually leave… She would come back.. she had too.

You were hanging up laundry when you heard the door creak open. You turn around and see her. She looked exhausted and she was missing fingers.

“oh.” You said quietly, a few tears pricking at your eyes. She looks at you sympathetically. “I-I’m sorry” Her voice cracks, she was struggling not to cry.
