"Take care of our daughter, okay? I'm entrusting my life to you" Mr. Shizwell said to Andre while looking at his daughter who was busy talking to her Master.
"I will, Sir," Andre said.
"Address me as Father, Okay?" Mr. Shizwell said and smiled.
"Yes...Father," Andre said, smiling back at him.
'What's this? He hasn't even smiled at me like that in decades' Elisa thought, looking at her father being all smiley with his son-in-law.
"Are you listening?" Mr. Wilson asked.
"Huh? What? Oh? Yeah." Elisa replied after she snapped out of her thoughts.
"Really? Then tell me what did I say?" he asked, folding his hands over his chest.
"You're really acting like a teacher. Mr. Oldie" Genevieve said.
"When will the day arrive when both of you will call me by a normal name?" Mr. Wilson said.
Genevieve and Elisa looked at each other before looking at Mr. Wilson and saying in Unison,
"Never"
Mr. Wilson just sighed and spoke, "Nothing can change both of you and for your kind information, I really am a teacher for me to be acting like one and don't change the topic and tell me what I told you about this potion" Mr. Wilson said, pointing towards the little bottle in Elisa's hand which he handed her a few minutes ago.
"This is an aura fuser which will help me hide my aura and scent from the werewolves and they won't be able to recognize my unusual scent instead they'll sense a similar scent from me, causing less suspicions for them. I have to take two drops every morning since it will only last fifteen hours." Elisa explained as Mr. Wilson nodded in satisfaction.
"What will you do if you run out?" Mr. Wilson asked.
"You will send the new one before it runs through Ray and if there is some kind of delay I can contact Gennie since you have taught her the potion yourself, Happy?" Elisa said.
"Exactly" Genevieve and Mr. Wilson said in unison and all of them started to laugh.
And all this cute moment of theirs was being witnessed by Andre, who was just admiring his wife's beautiful and carefree smile which she has never shown to him.
'I'll wait for the day, you'll show that carefree smile of yours to me...'
"Thank you," Elisa said.
"Why so?" Mr. Wilson asked and Genevieve too looked at her confused.
"For this potion and...for everything, both of you" Elisa said with a smile.
"Eyy...Don't make it sound like we are meeting for the last time. This isn't the end" Genevieve said.
"You're right" Elisa smiled and looked towards Andre.
"This isn't the end..." she mumbled.
Soon everyone was standing outside, ready to bid their final goodbyes to Elisa.
"Take care of yourself...okay?" Mrs. Shizwell said, releasing Elisa from the hug.
Elisa nodded her head with a small smile on her face. Soon everyone else also hugged her turn by turn and lastly it was Mr. Shizwell's turn.
He stepped forward and Elisa's heart started to quicken up it's pace as the events in the room earlier flashed in front of her eyes. Mr. Shizwell patted her head and stepped back, still maintaining his straight face whereas Elisa felt a little disappointment inside her.
'What was I even expecting?' she questioned herself.
"Don't worry, Aunty. She is now under my care. I will never let a tear even make its way through her eyes, I'll make sure of that. Don't you worry" Scarlett said with full enthusiasm, while wrapping her arms around Elisa's.
"Did she marry you or me?" Andre questioned, making everyone laugh at his statement.
"Of course, you married her but! You only married her, it was just a way to bring her into our household. Don't worry, after reaching home I'll never let you feel like you ever married someone. You can just live off as a bachelor" Scarlett said as she stuck out her tongue.
"Oh, really?" Andre asked, placing his hands over his waist.
"Yes, really," Scarlett exclaimed while copying her brother's actions.
Everyone was giggling at their cute interaction, not leaving Elisa as an exception.

"Don't forget, we are always here. I'm just a call away. Whenever you are in trouble, just ring me up. I'll be where you are. Even if that means to cross the border." Genevieve said while holding Elisa's hand. Elisa smiled and nodded at her statement.
"Genevieve, let her go. We have to end this faster before anyone else comes" Mr. Shizwell said, making Elisa and Genevieve even sadder on their separation.
Currently everyone was at the border, Mr. Wilson made up a magic bridge for them to cross. All of the Adolphus family crossed it except for Andre and Elisa.
Elisa was bidding her last goodbye and Andre was behind her, patiently waiting for her.
After greeting them Elisa turned around only to find Andre standing there, ready to escort her. He extended his hands towards Elisa. She was taken aback by this sudden action of his even though it wasn't much.
She stared at his hand for a while before hesitatingly extending her hand. Andre held her hand and both slowly made their way towards the other side.
As soon as they crossed the stream, the bridge disappeared. Elisa sneaked one last look at her family.
"Goodbye" Elisa whispered and then vanished inside the forest.
"This doesn't feel real. Do you think what we did is right?" Mrs. Shizwell asked her husband who was just silent.
"I don't think this was right at all, but who am I even kidding?" Genevieve said sternly before leaving from there, followed by Mr. Wilson, leaving the couple alone.
"I hope this for the best...for her" Mr. Shizwell said, looking at the disappeared figure of Elisa.
