Negan smiled at the young woman as he watched her sheepishly shove the Mountain Dew into her bag. Hell, he wished he would have done the same. He dug into his hot pocket as they began to make their trek forward. He tried to savor it; trying not to think about the next time he might get hot food. Some people were being optimist, hoping and praying that everything would get back to normal eventually... but Negan had a very awful feeling. It was hard for him to try and stay optimistic.
He looked over at her as she questioned him, crumpling the cardboard from the hot pocket. He stuffed it in his pocket and took a swig of his water. He thought about her question for a moment, pondering over a few of the last home cooked meals he had.
He capped his water and wiped his mouth. Clearing his throat he began to reply to her, "Uh, probably steak. Steak and potatoes. Think the last time I had that though was my birthday last year."
He replayed the memory in his mind, picturing his late wife's face for a moment. He shook his head, beckoning the image to go away. He didn't want to resurface those emotions at the moment. He cleared his throat again, looking down at his feet as he watched them stir up dust as he walked. "What about you?"
