71. Antonie II

The place we were visiting was supposed to be Miss Anty's residence. But when we got there, I did not see any buildings that represented a house. It was an area filled with ruins of the buildings. I looked at Naar, confused, "We are not lost, aren't we?" I asked.

He just shook his head while pointing at the ruins of the house of an old porous wooden door. 

I was still confused until finally, I saw Azalea walk toward the door first. She knocked at the door softly. 

"Wait a moment!" Distinctly, I heard someone's voice which I believed was Miss Anty's. I did not see anything behind the door when it was still closed—other than the other ruins—but when it was opened, a woman came out of it, "Is this a magic trick?" I was bewildered. 

The moment we went through the door, the scene immediately changed as if to another dimension.

"I brought the child today," Azalea asked me to greet her.
