It's most certainly not what he's waiting for.

And as such it gets, probably, the last thing Glenn expects-- a short, bitter bark of a laugh. Funny how such a thing can sound so much like a sob; but there's a certain sick humor to this, the irony of it.

Is he imagining Glenn's kindness because, from beginning to end, Glenn was extraordinarily, invariably, the best of people? Or-- and it's barely even a question, Daryl knows the likelier answer-- even now, he's being selfish, seeking some sort of absolution he doesn't deserve.

"Deserve a lot worse," he mutters-- or means to. Not much more than a cracked whisper escapes him. He's hardly sure he spoke aloud at all.
