I had eaten a heavy dinner and that night Ahmad Khatami came to my dream. I was terrified and tried hard to wake up, but Ahmad Khatami grabbed my pant leg and said, "We are at your service." I said, "I didn't want to disturb you." He replied, "What disturbance? You are a guest!" I saw Iraj Maleki, the director of the film 'Disturbance', filming us while the camera was on his shoulder. He said, "Do you remember? Two fools were here who caused a disturbance." I cursed myself again for the heavy dinner. I asked Khatami, "How was your Eid al-Adha speech?" He said, "Excellent! Excellent! Do you see my hair? It was all standing up." I said, "At one point you mentioned that the West wants us to sit on one side of the table and they on the other, but the Islamic system will not accept such things." He excitedly replied, "Yes, yes! I really nailed that part." I asked, "Is your problem with negotiation just where you sit?" With God's permission, he sat on the arm of my chair and said, "Of course. We will only negotiate if I am behind the pulpit and Netanyahu, Trump, and Bin Salman sit like the people, chanting Takbir and sending blessings. My last negotiations went nowhere for this reason." Then suddenly, I don't know where he pulled out a remote and pressed the power button, and with God's permission, a Googoosh concert was broadcast from BBC Persian. Ms. Googoosh was performing, and out of fear, I said, "Astaghfirullah" and covered my eyes. I was waiting for Ahmad Khatami to, with God's permission, explode the Googoosh concert and BBC together, but I heard laughter. However, I saw Khatami smiling and watching the concert. Ms. Googoosh was singing: "If the one who is lost / is found one day / the lock of my heart's prison / will be opened with its key / it will bring all the goodness with it / and put its good hand in mine." I said in astonishment, "Doesn't this have a religious problem?" Tears welled up in his eyes, and he said, "She is also waiting for the one who is lost. Maybe he will come this Friday, maybe." And he broke into tears. Then suddenly Ahmad Khatami faded away and, with God's permission, turned into Behzad Bolour and apologized to the viewers for the disruption that had occurred during the concert broadcast. I woke up while I was shouting at my heavy dinner. In this very field, I was with Izzat, Saeed, and Judge Salavati, the war of 'Seftin' on Twitter, 'Coordination' in the Supreme Coordination Council, Tomorrow Station with Farshid Manafi, Paradox with Kambez Hosseini, and Justifying Issues with Jalal Saidi.
