Early in the morning, the three new arrivals checked the announcement board they found the countdown that was less than 10 hours left. Someone would be leaving in ten hours and it could be one of them.

"Have you guys talked to the others?" Egon asked.

"I've been talking a lot with the girls," Serron said.

"That's true," Amanda agreed with him. "But I've also talked with some of the hunks since I'm feeling like I could get a connection with Carlos or Antonio."

They both looked at Amanda when she mentioned at Carlos

"Don't you see how close Shannon and Carlos are?" Serron asked with a sly reaction on his face.

Amanda rolled eyes her. "I know and I've seen them cuddling and kissing most of the time. Earlier when I woke up, I saw them smooching on their bed. I couldn't look at it for too long. It's freaking me out. But I wanna have him... I don't know why."

"I feel like you could be in serious trouble with Shannon if you would pursue that," Serron said.

"I guess I would agree to that," Egon said. "Maybe you should go for Antonio. We shared the bed last night and he told me he was paired up with Laura and she only did that so he could stay and the one beauty who left. So, in short, Emilio and Laura are still getting stronger so you might not have a chance with that. Antonio's pretty good for you."

"And why not you?" Amanda smirked.

Egon chuckled. "Yeah, I mean, why not?"

"But it's not on our hands if we're gonna stay today," Serron said. "It's on the public so they're watching and we still have to connect with someone we like so they could see the potential of us making a couple."

"What about you?" Egon asked turning to Serron. "Who you are trying to get connected with?"

"Well, just like you with Carlos, I like Emilio. And did you know that I know Dong-Yoon so there's a possibility that I would come at him and talk to him? I know he's a nemesis of Baek Jin-hyeong so I've known him for so long. But he's paired up with Minetta so I don't know what will happen there, but I know I gotta try."

"We all have to," Egon said. "It's either we fall out altogether."

"I hope that won't happen..." Amanda said.

"Hey, guys!" Mallory waved at us. "Come cook some breakfast with us," she added.

The three of them joined them in the outdoor kitchen and prepared some breakfast. They were just cooking sausages, sunny side-up eggs, bacon, pancakes, and French toast for some. As they shared the breakfast on the table, they talked about what was going in and how they are handling the situation.

"Well, for me, it was so nerve-wracking," Serron said and bite on the sausage. "I'm not expecting any grand or whatever. For now, I'm just happy that I've got to experience being in this place because I wouldn't be in Amanpulo if it wasn't for this... and finding some love here, it would be a bonus for me—but sure, that's my intention that's why I came here."

"Same," Amanda said. "Even though we don't have the choice now, we still have to do something to connect with someone else because after tonight and if we get to stay, the game continues."

"It's true," Egon said.

"So, who's your type? Aside from Cinema who you picked to be your date yesterday," Mallory asked.

"Well, I'm leaning into her... and you," Egon smirked, shrugging off. "You're pretty and I can see that you're very mature when it comes to dealing with stuff. I like that to a woman so... we could make—"

Egon was interrupted when Berkeley made a noise by clearing his throat. They all laughed at it because he was just there and listening to what Egon said.

Egon chuckled. "I'm sorry, Berk."

Berk shook his head. "You don't have to. You gotta do what you got to do. You're here for something we also came here for so we all have the same thing going in on our mind."

After their breakfast, they all went everywhere inside the cabin just so they occupied their mind for the deportation that's going to happen tonight. Conversations, promises, and deals have been made, but no one is sure how long it will last so they just do what they need to do.

As the hours passed by, they started preparing their best dresses tonight. No one's confident about the deportation today since every single one of them could be gone tonight. But they made their stay in the cabin so good it would be memorable.

When the three new arrivals have done preparing for themselves and joined all together and stood in front of the announcement board and watch the minutes pass by.

Egon put his arms over his shoulder and took a deep breath. "It's been a great experience to have you guys on this journey."

"Same," Serron said. "I might be back in Manila single so I'm just gonna do what's best for you..."

"Here we go..." Amanda said. "Ten... nine..."

"Eight... seven... six... five... four... three... two... one," they all said. "Good luck, guys."
