[Elisa forcefully closed her eyes as she can't see her fate in front of her eyes.]

Cyrus: Elisa, you may open your eyes.

[The 1st time she realized how calm and cold the voice of Cyrus was. She gradually opened her eyes and noticed the bar.]

[REMAIN- 20% and DISAPPEAR- 60%]

[Elisa became speechless and jumped with a smile.]

Elisa: But, why don't you vote for my disappearance?

Cyrus: It's true that, I don't like you. But I don't think anyone should deserve disappearance. I just hate these rules.

Elisa: Thank you so much Sir. I promise. I'll make myself better.

Cyrus: (sarcastically) Let's see how far can you go.

[She gave a thumbs up with a big smile.]

Cyrus: Let me drop you home.

Elisa: No need sir. I can't go home.

Cyrus: Why? What happened?

Elisa: It was a long story (sighs). Leave it.

Cyrus: You can share to me as I'm also surprised to see your voting percentage.

[Elisa slowly told him each and everything since morning.]

Elisa: Now, tell me how can I go to that home which is not mine.

Cyrus: But, your friend Scarlett, I thought she was a good girl. But...

Elisa: (very) Everyone hates me sir. Why don't you vote for me (weeping)? No one want me.

Cyrus: (little anger) Oh! Just shut up! Destiny already wrote your importance not you, mad girl. Stop crying and let's go.

Elisa: Where?

Cyrus: You are familiar with that place. Come on.

[The time was 7:10 pm. Cyrus took her to that white cottage type house.]

Elisa: Sir, this is your home. How can I?

Cyrus: Don't worry, I can manage. But one condition you don't disturb me like before.

[Cyrus took her upstairs and pointed towards a room which is just opposite to his bedroom.]

Cyrus: Here you can stay (smiling). Though it it little small in size but...

Elisa: No no. It's ok. I'm very lucky Sir.

Cyrus: Ummm... Do you like to have a cup of coffee?

Elisa: No. No it's ok. I'm good.

Cyrus: It means coffee (laughed).

[They both laughed together.]

Cyrus: Ok.. Ok.. Just change and come to downstairs.

Elisa: Oh no.. (Holds her head)

Cyrus: Wh.. What?

Elisa: I've nothing to wear.

Cyrus: Oh.. Just a second.

[After a minute, Cyrus returned with a yellow shirt.]

Cyrus: This is small size. I think it would fit you.

[Elisa took the shirt and went to her room. Cyrus also walked down to make coffee.]

[After 10 minutes, Elisa also walked down. Cyrus was continuously staring at her. She was wearing his shirt paired with her own skinny black cargo. Though it didn't fit well but as she twisted the sleeves to her elbow, she was looking cute.]
