NYLA enters Ayelen's house, softly calling, "Hey… Ayelen."
Suddenly, a flashback hits. We see Nyla in a dark moment of her life, attempting suicide. Just as she's about to lose herself, two unknown shadowy figures appear behind her… both wearing creepy smiles.
The scene cuts back to the present.
Ayelen, Arnold, Nyla, Miyara, Lor, and Reiane are all sitting at the dining table, having dinner. The atmosphere is heavy. Everyone looks upset… not just upset, but disappointed in Nyla.
Tears slowly fall from Nyla's eyes.
Reiane notices. Without saying a word, he gently wipes her tears and pulls her into a hug. Then he looks at the others and says, "Stop staring at her like that."
But Arnold stays silent. There's a question in his mind… something important, something he hasn't asked yet.
After a moment, Lor finally speaks, "Why did you do that…? Why did you try to kill yourself?"
Nyla takes a deep breath and replies, "Because I'm done with this life. First, you all misunderstood me… and then you accused me of killing Ayelen."
The room goes quiet.
Arnold suddenly stands up. "I'm done eating," he says coldly, and walks away.
Miyara leans closer to Ayelen and whispers, "What happened to that uncle?"She's clearly talking about Arnold.
Meanwhile, Lor and Reiane apologize to Nyla for misunderstanding her.
After dinner, Nyla smiles faintly and says, "I brought gifts… for my sweet brother Ayelen."
The mood softens a little… but not completely.
Cut to Arnold.
His face shows he's still deep in thought… something is bothering him.
The next day—
A semi-final match is about to begin.
Rim vs Arnold.
Both stand in the arena, facing each other with fearless expressions and excitement in their eyes.
But someone else is watching closely…
Maisen—the finalist of the tournament.
His eyes are locked on Arnold.
Arnold notices him… and gives a slight smile.
The bell rings.
MATCH STARTS!!
