'I need to eat something. As I remember I had some food in my backpack.'
He sit down to eat and watched his surrounding. Then out of nothing he felt that something touched his left leg. He got startled and jumped up. It was the black cat he saw in the shack.

"Oh! You are so cute!"
He petted it while eating and it jumped into his lap and lied down.

"Seems like it! Let's go!"
He started to walk forward on the plain.
