Bab 7: Hershel's Predicament
When Gabriel entered the farm, Hershel was waiting outside with an angry face, Gabriel saw this and smirked mentally.
Hershel has always been very protective of Maggie and seeing Gabriel not bringing Maggie for hours only meant one thing for him.
He needed 'the talk' with Gabriel.
It's just that, if Hershel knew that Maggie is probably already pregnant, he would go crazy but Gabriel won't back down from responsabilities.
"Yo!" Gabriel waved at Hershel.
Hershel didn't answer and stared at his sleeping daughter, he saw that his daughter had a silly smile and she seemed to be shining.
Only this was enough for Hershel to deduce everything, he had an idea but this confirmed it.
Shira lowered herself to let Gabriel unmount her with Maggie on his arms.
"Good girl!" praised Gabriel at the horse who snorted slowly and nodded before going back to the other horses, but not before Jimmy took off the mount on her.
"Is she okay?" asked Hershel finally speaking seeing her daughter still sleeping, oblivious to the world right now.
Gabriel nodded
"She was exhausted" simply said Gabriel.
Hershel sighed in defeat "I have a riffle Gabriel,and you know I'm good in using it" warned Hershel.
Gabriel just smiled and walked past him but stopped at his side, he didn't turn to see Hershel and spoke "I want you to tell me why you have walkers in the barn, I'll go put Maggie to bed and when I come back, you better be ready" Gabriel kept walking after that, Hershel stood there sighing.
He lowered his head "I knew this would happen" he said to himself.
unaware by him, T-dog was listening from close by, he pretended to be working around but in reality was evesdroping.
T-dog wanted to tell the group about the walkers so bad but something about Gabriel stopped him. Gabriel had warned him that if he spoke, there'll be consequences, but T-dog couldn't take it anymore and walked to the his group.
Once in front of everybody he dropped the bomb to allo of them.
Shane was the first to react and grabbed his shotgun and race to the barn.
"Shane!"
"Shane STOP! Carl is still in their care!!" yelled Rick
This made Shane stop and looked back "You expect me to just seat back and let those freaks eat us while sleeping?" he asked angry.
"No, let me handle it... but not tonight. Tomorrow first thing in the morning" sadi Rick trying to calm Shane.
"And the walkers?" asked Shane "Rick, do you think the walkers will attack until morning?... no, as soon as they see you, you'll be dead"
"I know, I know! but they've been there for days now and we just now know. If they could get out then they would have done it already!"
Shane looked angry and shook his head and walked away "If something happens tonight... it's on you!" he said before leaving to his tent.
Loris seeing both men fight didn't stop them because she knew Shane was right, but she stands with her husband.
"You know I'll always be by hour side, but Shane is right" said Lori hugging Rick.
Rick shook his head "Yes, he is right that we have to protect our people but this isn't our home, we are intruding here"
"They shot Carl" she said back.
"By accident!" Rick was getting angry "This isn't our place, they could have kicked us out by now but they are waiting for Carl to feel better, these are good people Lori!" Rick left her standing there and went to his tent.
"Okay" she said but didn't look convinced at all.
.....
Gabriel put Maggie to sleep after cleaning her throughly with a warm towel, he saw her pussy was red from so much abuse.
He winced 'She won't be able to walk tomorrow' he thought 'Sorry, love' he kissed her goodnight and left the room.
Maggie opened her eyes after he left and smiled and closed them back.
...
Outside Maggie's room was a Patricia waiting for Gabriel with her hands on her back pushing her big bust forward.
Gabriel glanced at them and then at her eyes "Follow me" he said in a serious tone which made Patricia flinched a little 'Did I do something wrong?' she asked herself.
She followed him nontheless and once outside, Hershel was sitting on a chair in the porch.
Gabriel motioned to Patricia to seat down and she did so obediently.
"Now, old man. Please tell me why you are risking your daughters life with those things"
Gabriel asked but his face did not look like he wanted bullshit and wanted the simple truth.
Patricia widened her eys and started shaking lightly 'No! he... he is angry at me too' she thought.
Hershel took a deep breath "My wife is there" he said with a solem look.
Gabriel sighed "Old man, do you know how many people you've put at risk for doing that?" Gabriel had a cold look on him which made Hershel stunned that the playful Gabriel was no longer there.
"Gabriel... you" Hershel wanted to ask what happened but he was cut off by him.
"I've met people that became the dead... they already died Hershel, do you think muscles and bones will grow back, skin will grow back? No, they are gone and you have to make peace with that old man. They've ceased to be humans, do you really think Annette would have wanted that? Tomorrow I will kill all of those you have trapped in the loft"
"You can't!" said Hershel harshly "this is not your hom-"
*pak*
Hershel couldn't finish when Patricia slapped his face.
"You can't say that to Gabriel!" she hissed "Do you have any idea of how many times I was afraid I would get eaten by those things... I didn't want them here either, they are a danger to Beth, Maggie and Jimmy, but you did and even asked me to feed them and I did it at first because I felt simpathy" Patricia was angry and stood in front of Gabriel.
Hershel looked flabbergasted and rubbed his cheek.
"Listen, Hershel. I will kill those things tomorrow morning and if you try to stop me, I will take the girls away from your home" Said Gabriel with a serious face.
Hershel shocked "Y-you can't"
"I can and I will" finished Gabriel walking away, Patricia followed him and walked behind him waiting for him to say something to her.
"What do you think, Patricia?" he asked.
"I'll do whatever you want me to do, Gabriel" she said with a smile.
Gabriel laughed softly "Patricia?"
"Yes?"
"Tell me how you feel" said Gabriel.
Patricia clenched her fists and hugging him from behind, pressing her tits on him "I-I am jelous, okay? I also want to be with you, but I know Maggie is more your age, I am an old hag"
Gabriel turned around "an old hag?" he mused "it's a good thing I like old hags, isn't?"
Patricia widened her eyed and giggled "yes, it is... I want to be your wife, I want to bear your kids, I want you to make me a true woman" she said, whispering the last part.
Gabriel rose his brow and Patricia said "Otis... Otis was... I loved him... but... he certainly isn't you" she stuttered looking down at his visble bulge. "Also, I felt happy when you came back, like when a huband comes back from work and his wife is waiting happily, that's how I felt when you appeared... with you here, I can be happy, just being around you, even if you have a girlfriend, I will always be here for you. I'll always wait for when you rock my world like you did Maggie" she looked down in shame.
"and you weren't satisfied?" asked Gabriel staring into her eyes.
She avoided eye contact "I-I" she couldn't say it so Gabriel just kissed her forehead and hugged her.
"I'll be happy knowing you are there with me Patricia" he said and walked away to his room to sleep.
Patricia stood there pressing her hands on her chest, she stared at Gabriel's back longingly.
.....
Hershel stood outside looking at the night sky and sighed.
"He is right, dad" came a sweet yet sad voice behind him.
Hershel turned and saw Beth sitting beside the wall "I love mom so much and I will always do... but what we are doing is wrong, she would have wanted us to end it" Beth feels that what Gabriel said is right.
Hershel didn't answer and just closed his eyes hearing his daughter's retreating steps, soon tears started falling down his cheeks.
