That night they agree to sleep on the same bed for the first time since they were destined to live together under the same roof in the house. They turn off the light together then lay on each other side and have a little chat.

"We're like having a pajama party, hahaha..." Krist laughed out loud.

"Should we have a pillow fight and make rain feathers?" Singto adds.

"I like too.." he then takes a pillow and throws it to Singto and the guy also did the same, but the pillow doesn't hit on them but passes through their body.

"It's a draw, though we fight till morning..." Krist told him as he take back the pillow and hug in his lap. Now they sitting on the bed facing each other.

"You're right, let's stop it!" Singto adds. "You're like a boy." Singto raises his hand and pretends to pat Krist's head.

"Haha...I am a boy..."

"And I probably as old as your father in your time..."

Krist becomes silent immediately and looked down sadly. Singto moves his head down trying to look at his eyes.

"What's wrong? Am I your father?"

"What?!" Krist was surprised and lift his head immediately. "Of course, you're not!"

"Hahahaha...." Singto laughing loudly.

"That's not funny!"

"Well, I really curious. What I am like, in your time?"

"Mm...let me imagine it in my head, you have wrinkle...white hair...glasses..."

"Stop it!" Singto cut him immediately. "Stop imagining me as an old man. It's like put a curse on me!" Now it's Krist's turn to laugh. After a while, they look at each other in silence again.

"May I ask a favor?" Krist looking him in confusion. "If you meet the other me one day, punch him for me, and told him to have a better life."

"No, I won't do that."

"Why?"

"Cause, I don't know him, I won't talk to him."

"You got you're point."

"You got to work tomorrow, don't you? Let's sleep!" Krist said, Singto nodded in agreement and they lay back on the bed again.

"P'Sing, I wish to be born at the same time as you." Krist, add.

"In past or future?"

"Present." Krist smile.

"Hmm, Smart answer."  they laugh together and after a while, they get into the dream together.

Krist has a day off today, so he turns on his notebook and starts doing research. He started with the keyword 'Han Dong, the music gallery 1986'. It only takes a second for the browser to show random results from keywords, but not what he wants to find. Then he typed again in the search field. 'Han Dong, Country n Brew Pub' but the result is a show of unimportant stories and reviews, so he tries more keywords but the results are zero.

For the last try, he typed in the keyword, 'Han Dong, accident 80's' and the results appear quickly on the top page, 'Fire at Han Dong music gallery, in January 16th, 1989, which burned half the building, with more than 10 people killed and wounded.' he quickly clicks to open it and read the news that written about it. The news told about the cause of the accident and the victim who was killed in the fire, he is grateful for not finding Singto's name on it, but also feels distressed cause he found nothing about what happened to Singto. So he print out the article and headed to visit the city hall to find more of information about what exactly happened in the past. But before that, he first go to the Pub and took a photo of Singto photograph from the wall using his phone.
