"Why I am here now?" or so I thought while carrying this kid in behind. All I saw was a sand in every corner. Hot wind blew sometimes, makes my skin undoubtedly irritated. So I am now in the middle of desert but I don't recognized which one. And most unfortunately, this kid itself. Why he lying down in this middle of desert.

All I knew is now, is how to find some shelter or caravan nearby. I'm still wondering why I had this suit. A high-tech suit with mantle cover in full body but somehow it really tight. It seems that I did some important work back there, or maybe. I can't even remember anything after I awake before.

Walked through this desert was a total insane. No drink, the footstep easily slipped because of the sand, and carrying this kid. I didn't want to dying in here, but I can't saw anything else than a sea of sand. The only best bet was, I'm following where the sun set. I didn't know why, it's just an instinct, maybe?

I just keep walked to that direction. The sky became dark soon and still not any sign of anything. Eventually I got rest for a while. I dropped the kid gently to the sand then, I lying down as I look the sky. My throat felt dry and I'm exhausted. But I'm still need to be cautious. Maybe some desert raider will came to and kidnapped us.

I saw this kid still slept without even disturbed by all these thing. I wonder what makes him tired so much like this. I really wanted him to wake up and ask many question, but I can't. The cold wind now comes in fast as I shivered. I put off my mantle to become a blanket for two of us. Maybe a small slept before continue this torturing walk is a best idea.

The only thing that I knew was, some small-plate-silver necklace and "Rosa" word in it. It was a name-tag after all. But, is that my real name? Because I don't remembered anything and how I ended up here. Even this high-tech suit, what was I before? A technician, scientist, or just a wanderer? Before I knew it all, I fell asleep.
