The room had many metal storage shelves filled with folders, important documents, and so on. Krist and Tay search the entire shelf to find the folder they're looking for.

20 minutes has passed.

"Tay, did you find it?” asked Krist from the right side of the room.

Tay shook his head then realized that his friend couldn't see. "Not yet. Nothing's here."

"Same, in this part too," said Krist then sat on the floor. He rubbed his face quite roughly then grumbled. "Oh God, why did it turn out like this?"

"Have you tried asking Arm?" Tay asked as he stood up then turned to Krist.

Krist was silent for a moment to think then tapped his forehead. "You're right," he said, took out his cellphone then called Arm. He is their colleague in the secretary department.

The co-worker excused himself from the room. Tay went back to looking at some piles of stuff like in boxes or something.

After a while, Krist returned. His face was still sour, it didn't seem like there was any good news from Arm either. "Arm doesn't know either. The answer is the same as yours."

Tay rubbed his face then looked at his watch. It was getting late, he was worried about his boyfriend at home. The problem is, Tay himself has promised not to linger here, but he also didn't have the heart to leave Krist alone to take care of this.

Silence enveloped the room.

Both of them thought hard, confused what else to do. Until the end, Tay opened his voice. "What exactly is in the data? Isn't there any other backup?"

"No, there isn't, Tay. It's the only one," Krist said then fell silent. "Except..."

"Hmm?"
