Sunrise. Morning greeting. Chirping birds. Cooping chicken. Aroma of the dew in the morning. Small nipa hut surrounded by different fruit bearing plants. Little paradise. Pleasure. Play time. Fun.

Sunset. Moonlight. Scent of the chico flower. Starry night. Guitar playing. Singing songs. Contentment.

Elish and Klein's new life. New beginning. New friend. New place. New dream. 

"Do you believe that there are people who are born for each other?" Klein asked Elish.

"I don't believe that it is predermined to meet the people we meet. I believe we meet them because of the decisions we make, because of going to the same direction," Elish answered. "Do you believe that people are fated to meet?"she then asked.

"I believe people meet because of likes and dislikes, because of the things you do. I don't believe someone is fated to me or to someone else. I believe I met you because I decided to go to the place you love to go. And I love because it is what I feel and it is not what others want me to feel," Klein answered.

"I agree. I also love not because of the script I am reading and to what they've told me to feel but I love because it is what my heart feels."

"Will you leave the person you've just met because of the person you have met before?" Klein asked.

"If the person I've just met made me feel like I've known him for so long and I am comfortable when I'm with him, I think that's already good reasons for me to stay," Elish answered. "What is maybe the reason why dream is to be given up?"

"If that dream no longer define happiness and contentment in your life, defers everything then it is no longer a dream. If that is no longer what you are waiting for and no longer want very much then that's the time," answered Klein. "Why, are you giving up your dream?"

"I've never dream in my life. But recently I started to have one. And I am sure with it. It's my dream. My only dream," Elish answered.

"When I was younger, my dream is to be a doctor. But recently it changed," Klein told Elish.

Klein faced Elish face to face while under the shady chico tree.

"Time will come, you'll know it," he said and stood up.

Elish stood up very eager to know what it is.

"Can I not know now?" Elish asked after raises her eyes to Klein.

"If today is tomorrow, I'll tell you now."

"How would that happen?"

"It will happen, just think it will, and it will really happen."

"Really?"

"Definitely."

Elish sits on a swing. Klein sits beside Elish.

"If you lost your memory, are you going to have it back?" Elish asked Klein.

"If I lost my memory? I will because it is part of being me. But if I will lost my memory from the time I knew you, I won't wish to have it back. I'd rather know you than to live without knowing you," Klein seriously answered.

"Do you know what I want to have back?"

"What it is?"

"I'll tell you tomorrow."

"Elish, Klein, time for breakfast," an old woman called them.

Elish immediately ran toward the house. Klein follows Elish.

Elish suddenly falls unexpectedly. Klein the most worried run quickly to help her.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt? Where?" Klein asked with much worry.
