In that respect, Sammy and Nico seemed to be nice.
They were warmhearted, respected, and they liked to help others.
They were sometimes weird, but that happened a lot because each place had its own rules and traditions in this world.
Natalia couldn't make up his mind yet.
Fortunately, they hadn't done anything to her yet. Natalia could tell that something was wrong with them, but she couldn’t prove it because they didn't hurt Nancy and her at all.
Thinking like this, she felt less on the edge.
She walked to Sammy who was smoking. Then she smiled and said, "Good morning, Sammy."
Sammy turned over to look at her. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Morning, Nico has got some breakfast ready for you. Go bring them out."
Natalia nodded. After helping Nancy with a limp sit down on a bamboo chair, she turned away and walked into the kitchen.
It was a remote village; food was all quite simple.
They were about to have breakfast; Natalia wasn't hoping for any delicacies.
However, Nico seemed to be a very capable woman with a high standard of food. The breakfast turned to be a decent meal, each dish looking exquisite.
There were fragrant porridge, newly baked bread, and even some french fries.
That breakfast might be simple in the city; it might seem a bit ordinary.
However, it was a feast to Natalia and Nancy because this was a place where they could barely find anything to eat in the morning.
Natalia's eyes lit up when she saw the fragrant porridge and french fries.
She exclaimed, "That looks beautiful. It smells so good!"
Nico smiled shyly as if this were the first time she was praised in her life.
"It's just a normal breakfast. I don't know if you'll like it. Just have a try."
Natalia nodded and helped her to bring the food out. Then they sat at the table and started to eat.
During the meal, Sammy asked casually, "I knew your nickname was Seven, what's your real name?"
Natalia hesitated and looked at Nancy. Then she smiled and said, "My name is Natalia."
She didn't want to hide anything because even if she told him her real name, she knew nobody here could possibly have heard about it, let alone recognize her.
Sammy nodded and said, "Your family didn't know you're traveling, right?"
That question was subtle.
Natalia and Nancy glanced at each other again, and then she replied tacitly, "They don't know."
"Then is your home far away from here?"
Natalia smiled and answered, "Far enough. Maybe thousands of meters away."
"Indeed." Sammy's micro-expression changed a bit. Then he smiled and said, "So your family didn't know about the plane crash."
Natalia smiled. "No, they might not know. Everything happened so fast, and we lost our phones. We couldn't get in touch with them."
She then asked sincerely, "Sammy, do you know where we can make a phone call? We want to call our family and tell them that we are safe."
Sammy touched his messy stubble and said, "Making phone calls? That won't be easy. You have to walk for a whole day to get to the next village. I heard there was a landslide on the way there. They've shut down the road, and no one shall pass now."
Natalia then nodded and frowned after hearing those words.
