I hadn't yet come to terms with what had happened between me and Alex. I was determined to get to the bottom of the issue. I set aside the money he had given me and took some of the money I had saved up together on my own. I took a cab and headed for the settlement.
I made the cab driver park away from the settlement because I knew humans were not allowed there. I walked the rest of the distance to the place. When I got to the gate, the guards stopped me from entering. When I demanded to see Alex they told me he was the one that gave the order not to let me in. I was determined, so I hung about the gate hoping he would drive out and we could talk.
I waited there from morning till evening. He never showed up. I didn't have much money on me. I contemplated spending the night in the forest and coming back the next day but later decided against it. I decided I would return the next day.
