Ernest's chest tightened. He had to get her out—fast.
He raised his hand and reached toward her. “Elissa...”
“Ah!!!” Elissa let out panicked screams. “Don’t cnear me! Stay away!”
As she screamed, she thrashed her arms in the air.
“Go! Go away!”
Earlier, Elissa had scared off others who had cto get her.

“Ahhh...”
The second he touched her, Elissa’s body stiffened, and her eyes widened with terror.
“Elissa!”
Ernest couldn't take it anymore. He pulled her into his arms and held her tightly. Then, he bent down and
whispered in her ear, “It’s me. Dilan. Do you recognize my voice?”

He placed his hands on her waist and, with care, lifted her as if she were a child.
“Ah.” Elissa instinctively gasped and wrapped her arms around his neck. Even when he put her down and her
feet touched the tops of his shoes, she didn’t let go.
“It’s okay now.” Ernest held her steady, one hand supporting her back, the other keeping her close. “You're safe
now. No one’s going to hurt you.”
Elissa nodded and responded in a shaky voice, “Thank you...”
Ernest managed a bitter smile. How could he accept her thanks? She didn’t know it yet, but he was the reason
