Fortunately, I saw a taxi coming from a distance and I raised my hand to stop it. After that, I looked calmly at them and said, "The taxi is coming. Thank you anyway!"

After getting in the car, Anne was fast asleep, not waking up even after we returned to the Bronzy Condo. I put her to bed and cleaned up. Afterwards, I picked up my cell phone to order some dishes. There were several missed calls which were from both Hendrix and lan. I was supposed to call lan, but since I arrived late the night before, I had forgotten about it.

I called Hendrix on the phone. When the call got through, I could hear that it was really quiet at his side. His voice was low, "Were you very busy in the morning?"

"I brought Anne to look around." There was movement from the bedroom, Anne seemed to have woken up.

I got up to go and take a look.

"Do you have any plans in the afternoon?" Hendrix asked from the other end of the line.

"I may go out for a walk." Anne really did wake up. She was sitting on the bed and playing with the lamp on the nightstand.
