Na then continued on her way, looking for traders she might find in the settlement.


    "Where are we going, Aunt?" asked Dave suddenly on the way, because for the boy this was the first time he had seen a sight like this. Yes, naturally, Anna''s son is always at home and is not allowed to go anywhere by his mother. He only came out when Anna took him for a weekend, whether it was a city park, amusement park, mall, or another shopping center.


    "Looking for a drink, honey. You are thirsty, aren''t you?" Na asked, ncing at Dave who was also looking at her at that time.


    Hearing Na''s question, Dave nodded in agreement.


    Walking for a few minutes down the halls, Na didn''t even see anyone.


    "Is it always quiet like this?" she muttered once again looking around.


    "Auntie, why isn''t there anyone?"


    "Are you sure this is the right way?" Dave asked again in his very innocent voice.


    For a moment Na was stunned to hear the boy''s question.


    "Yes, Dear. Don''t worry," answered Na, somehow she felt a little doubtful about the direction she was taking. The houses that lined the left and right sides of the paved road she was passing were quiet, everything was closed and no sound could be heard as if theplex she was in was currently uninhabited.


    They both kept walking until they found a checkpoint. Na decided to rest for a while. "Dave, let''s get some rest, shall we, honey?"


    "Okay, Auntie."


    Luckily, a breezy wind blew and gave a little fresh sensation to both of them.


    Suddenly Na''s sense of hearing heard the sound of a motorbike that seemed to be approaching them at this time, "Dave, wait for me a minute, ok?" she said and at the same time, she immediately moved from her position, got out of the patrol post and stood on the side of the road.


    And it turned out that someone was heading towards her. Of course, Na will not miss this golden opportunity, using one hand, she tried to restrain the driver who turned out to be a middle-aged woman, judging by her age she was probably around forty years old.


    "Excuse me, madam," Na approached the middle-aged woman with a smile on her face.


    "Yes, Miss? What''s wrong?"


    "May I ask?"


    "Please, Miss," the woman replied as she turned off the engine.


    "Do you know where the nearest shop is from here?" Na asked in a very smooth and polite tone of voice.


    "Sorry, Miss. Maybe, you should get out onto the highway first. There are no traders in thisplex. But in theplex next door there may be, it''s just that it''s a bit far from here, Miss" exined the middle-aged woman.


    "Eh? Really?" Na''s brow furrowed.


    "That''s right, Miss."


    Na nodded faintly, "Since earlier, I haven''t seen anyone, has the atmosphere in thisplex always been like this, Madam?" asked Na who couldn''t stand her curiosity anymore.


    "That''s right, Miss, the atmosphere during the day is like this because the residents are busy in the amusement park, the average resident of thisplex has a livelihood there," the middle-aged woman replied in one breath.


    "Looks like Miss has just entered thispound?" She asked Na again, her eyes asionally ncing behind the ce where Dave was.


    "Ah, I''m lost, ma''am. I''ve been looking for merchants but haven''t found any," replied Na, the smile on her lips never fading.


    The middle-aged woman just nodded in understanding, "Want toe with me, Miss?" bargain.


    "Where are you going?" asked Na.


    "I want to go home, Miss. Coincidentally my house is very close to the highway, from there it only needs to take a few meters and then exit thisplex. Yes, that''s if you want."


    Na was silent, seemed to be considering the middle-aged woman''s offer.


    "If you object, that''s fine. Then I''ll excuse myself," said the woman again starting the engine.


    "Ah, wait, wait," said Na.


    "Okay madam, I will follow you, thank you in advance," he added again.


    "Then go up."


    "Wait a minute madam," Na said then turned and walked towards Dave.


    "Come on honey," Na said softly and only got a nod from the child. From the expression shown, Anna''s son seemed very tired, however, Na never heard himin.


    And after that, they left the ce, carried by a stranger, Na felt a little nervous. Even so, she tried to trust the middle-aged woman because this was the only clue she had.


    Na nodded faintly, "Since earlier, I haven''t seen anyone, has the atmosphere in thisplex always been like this, Madam?" asked Na who couldn''t stand her curiosity anymore.


    "That''s right, Miss, the atmosphere during the day is like this because the residents are busy in the amusement park, the average resident of thisplex has a livelihood there," the middle-aged woman replied in one breath.

    And after that, they left the ce, carried by a stranger, Na felt a little nervous. Even so, she tried to trust the middle-aged woman because this was the only clue she had.


    "Okay, thanks again. Then we''ll excuse ourselves first," said Na while bowing in respect.


    The middle-aged woman simply nodded, "Be careful, Miss."


    Hearing that, Na smiled and started walking. One of her hands gripped Dave''s hand.


    "Auntie, who was that?" .the boy asked breaking the sound of their footsteps.


    "Ah, I don''t know, honey."


    "You know her, Aunty?"


    Na shook her head.


    "Auntie, don''t do it again. My mother once said that following strangers is very dangerous," Dave said innocently.


    Na who heard that smiled again, "Okay, honey. Auntie won''t do it again," said Na.


    "If my father finds out, my mother will get mad at you," Dave said again. His voice sounded hoarse, maybe because she was so thirsty?


    "But Aunty don''t worry, Dave will keep this a secret from Mom," he added and it managed to make Na chuckle.
