Explanation:

The short story "Blanca Flor" by Angel Vigil tells the story of a young girl trapped in a man's house as payment for debt. The protagonist of the story Juanito, looking for work, ends up in that place and began working for the same man.

The protagonist Juanito had been just into the forest, lost and hungry when he met the forest Duende, a spirit. He had warned him not to venture into the deeper side of the forest but he had also mentioned that he can "Maybe work right here. Maybe." Due to his urgent and frantic need of help and work, we can know for sure that Juanito will definitely go along the very same path that the Duende had warned him not to go. Juanito's inquiring appeal "And where? Who do I see?" suggests that he will be going towards that direction.
