By the time Sarawat and Tine reached Tine's home, it already started to rain like a cat and dog. Sarawat parked his car and both rushed towards the house.

Tine laughs as rain drops fall on him while Sarawat pulls him under the shade, he was worried that the younger might get sick if he was drenched in rain.

"Do you have keys?" Sarawat asked once he found the door locked.

"Mom, hides the keys under the pot. Let me check" Tine looks under the pot but there was no keys, he then digs the pot to took out the key

"Here!" Tine shouted excitedly and handed the key to Sarawat.

Sarawat unlocks the door and as soon as they entered the house, the power went off, "Great" Sarawat said annoyance.

"Does it feel like a haunted house scene?" Tine asked while giggling, suddenly they heard thunder sound and light flashed.

Tine grabs Sarawat in panic, "Mom never told me about the house being haunted!" Tine whimpers.

Sarawat took out his phone and turned on the torch, "Relax, it's just lightning. Stay here, I will go and check the power box"

"Be careful, I will look for candles," Tine said before he went into the kitchen to find matchsticks and candles.

"It's beyond my understanding" Sarawat whispers as he opens the power box to check, he scratches his head and decides to return back.

"Argh!" He screamed when he turned around and found Tine holding the candle near his face.

"Hey! It's me! Tine!" Tine pouts as he thought that Sarawat thinks he looks scary

"Who holds the candle like that?" Sarawat complains as he holds his chest in fright.

"I was trying to help" Tine mumbles looking at his feet

"Come on, let's change the clothes and go to sleep" Sarawat suggested as he took the candle from Tine's hand

"Can I sleep with you?" Tine asked hopefully

"Huh?"

"Well, there is no electricity. I'm scared to sleep by my own" Tine replies, Sarawat thought for a while and then nodded.

Again lightning strikes, making both of them shiver. Sarawat and Time looks at each other before running towards the stairs

"Wait for me! Don't run away without me!" Tine cried in panic

"Help yourself before helping others" Sarawat shouted, making Tine cry louder as he grabs Sarawat's shirt and follows.

Sarawat changed his clothes and was wiping his hair when Tine knocked on the door before entering inside, "Done?" Tine asked as  put the candle he was carrying next to one already in the room, he sat on the bed and watches Sarawat

"Hm" Sarawat threw the towel on the chair and then picked up his phone, he decided to switch of the phone after texting Zar and Man about his location as only 20% charge was left

"Your phone have a battery charge?" Sarawat asked Tine, Tine shows his dead phone and shrugs

"Move" Sarawat sat next to Tine and looked at the balcony, they decided not to close it to let the wind in.

"I don't wanna sleep yet" Tine turns to Look at Sarawat and whispers

"Then what do you wanna do?" Sarawat asked, he himself was wide awake.
