The end of times

Yeah sure, I don't mind! But, may I ask whose Carl thought?". He looked over and pointed at him. "Him!", I sighed and nodded. He nodded back and walked away from us. Towards his son Carl, he was talking to him about something, and I knew it wasn't something good as he looked annoyed and looked over at me.It shortly fell tonight as I and Patrick talked a lot and as he walked me back to my cell. "Can I come back in the morning?". I nodded as he smiled and walked off. I lay down in my bed staring at the ceiling as I closed my eyes, letting myself fall into complete darkness. I felt my arm getting nudged and a voice ringing out. I couldn't make out what it said, and I opened my eyes shortly after as I saw Patrick there, looking towards the door "Why are you waking her up?", some would say. "Cause I said I would, plus you share chores with her''. Patrick replied to the person. I looked towards who he was talking to and it was Carl. I sat up as Patrick backed up. "Hey!", he said happily. I waved at him as I yawned and stretched. I heard Carl sigh out in annoyance. I would get up and we would walk down the medal stairs outside where we had our breakfast. I and Patrick were having a conversation as Carl watched the fences. "That was good!" Patrick exclaimed. "It's the same thing every day", Carl said. "It's still good", I hummed in agreement as we got up and walked towards the fields for our chores "Okay I'm going to go this way. Bye guys! "Patrick said. I waved bye and soon turned my attention towards Carl, following close behind him. "Do you even know how to garden?". "A little bit", I said. He went over to the plants as I followed. A watering can be pushed towards me. I grabbed it. "Water the plants", he said plainly '' I finished fairly quickly making sure the plants got enough water each. "I finished,", I said, not knowing what to do next. "Good for you", I watched as he dug up the dirt and planted seeds "Do you need help?" I began but was cut off by a harsh no, after a bit he would speak again. "Come water these',' he said pointing at the small holes he made where seeds were laid. I nodded and began watering after what seemed an hour we were done. "Now what?", I questioned. "We feed the pigs' ', he spoke brushing against my shoulder harshly. I huffed out in annoyance. We finally finished everything, and luckily Patrick finished around the same time as us. "That was quicker than before", Patrick said. "Yup", Carl replied. I caught up to Patrick "What's his deal?'' I asked. "I'm not sure, he's not usually like this", Patrick answered. I nodded confusedly. "I can talk to him later", he said. "If you want to'', I said. "I don't mind really but maybe you could be there?". Patrick suggested. 'Why?" I asked. "I don't know, maybe you could get to know him better". "I guess". "So will you?", Patrick asked. "Santee", I said unsure. "He's not that mean once you get to know him". I shrugged, unsure of what to say. We ended up back in my room as he sat on my bed talking about the book Carol read to the book club. I looked through my drawers. The comic book, I found a few months ago. I found a few actually in the gas station, if I remember it was like Batman or superman. I felt around everywhere till my finger hit them. "There we go!". I exclaimed, pulling the three. I was right about one, it was Batman while the other two I've never read were called invincible. It looked like a superhero comic and handed them to Patrick. "Carl has a few of these!" Patrick exclaimed. "Cool", I responded. "Did you call my name?" Carl said, standing outside my door, looking tired. "Yeah, she has a few comic books like yours!". I rolled my eyes because of course he had to tell him. He looked interested. Once he looked at me I nodded and patted the books. I was on the floor as I talked to Patrick. Carl came in and sat next to Patrick, looking at the comic books. "Can I?", he said looking at me and then at the comic books. "Yeah..", I said. He took one of the Incredibles and looked through the pages. "Hey the book club is starting, I'm going to go". I hoped he would skip tonight so I wouldn't be alone. "Alright", Carl said. "Bye", I said. I grabbed the batman one and also began reading. It was complete silence, but not awkward, more of like a comfortable silence. How long would he be in a good mood? I thought to myself. He then broke the silence "Hey I'm sorry for being a jackass back there", he said. "Are you apologizing because you found my comics?", he laughed slightly. "No, I was just a little frustrated. That's all". I nodded "You're good", I said. He smiled slightly as I gave him one back and we went back to reading the comics. But I switched from the floor to my bed. He didn't mind much and scooted over. I don't know how long we stayed up but he brought in a few of his own as we read them together. "Alright ima head to bed," he said in a quiet tone "ok," I said he took his comics and left I played down and closed my eyes
