A few years ago I read a story about a young teen who killed his mother and father then teenage ran. For his life hoping to catch the last wagon train before winter. When that failed he decided to go on his own. He crossed paths with 2 women that had the plague but nursing them back to health. I believe that was much more to the story but not sure enough to remember.
I have searched for 2 over years and decided to ask for help.
Any information appreciated.

This sounds like I Fell Through by The Old Guy.
But not the part about a young teen who killed his mother and father

Not really. In 'I fell through', the guy is from the future and he didn't kill anybody before catching a wagon train.
I really liked the premise of the story of 'I fell through', but unfortunately, the author wrote himself into a corner in the third book. He was going for a simpy feminist storyline and I guess he couldn't get himself to flesh it out and the 3rd book remains unfinished.
That's a very common thing that I noticed with isekai stories that send a modern man into the past. They never adjust the attitude of the time traveller to match the kind of required attitude to survive in the past.
I would like to read a story where the man from the future learns to behave like an actual man instead of a simpy modern feminist man where they don't start by liberating all the women and letting the women take over all the decisions.
In the past, when governments were not the ultimate husband to all the women, men shouldered huge responsibility and got the proper respect.
Any suggestions that fit?
If not, then I guess I would have to write that story myself.

Has two sick girls abandoned by their wagon train. MC is a time traveller, so no patricide.

Hmm, If the author had the time traveling boy worrying about his actions in the past will change the future, causing his parents to never get borne, he might feel like he killed them. I can imagine a reader might faintly remember this as if the boy actually killed his parents.
So it may still fit.
Sorry, I never read the story so I can only speculate.
HM.
