Eliza was coming back to team India's waiting room after confirming their number in the performance setlist when she ran into two giant men in mask and one of them accidentally spilled his coffe on her. Luckily she was wearing a hoodie over her performance outfit so only the hoodie got stained.

??: oh gosh. I'm so sorry.

Eli: ah it's fine and it was clearly an accident so it's fine.  By the way your voice is really familiar where have I heard it ...

?? 2: do you listen to TXT?

Eli: oh ya I do. Wait Yeonbin?.... I mean Soobin and Yeonjun.

Yj: yup. Hi nice to meet you. You're team ..... ?

Eli: India ... If you don't mind me asking why are you guys in masks back stage. And holy shit how am I so calm. I'm meeting the oldest two members from one of my favourite group.

Yj: nice to know. All the best for the competition. What's your name by the way ?

Eli: My real name is Elizabeth but you guys can call me Izzy it's sort of like a stage name I have.

Sb: what do you like to be called ?

Eli: Izzy or Eliza is fine. I'm not a fan of Elizabeth.

S&Y:  sure.

Sb: wait you said. I mean you said we are one of your favourite groups ?  Which.... all group do you ah like ?

Eli: you can speak in Korean it's fine. I understand it pretty well. Just can't speak it that's all.

Yj: ok sure. But you didn't answer our question.

Eli: a couple of 3rd gen groups , and 5th gen and few 4th gen. But my top groups are You guys , Skz , BLACKPINK and BTS.

Sb: you like Skz ?

Eli: yup. But let's be honest who doesn't?

Yj: true. But what your program number?

Eli: our group is the 11th one to perform.

Yj: oh ? Cool we'll keep this. And come to the room at the end of this corridor, its marked with a star and our names. We will be waiting.

With that the two oldest members of TXT walked away leaving this 18 year old dumb founded at what just went down until she looked down into her hands and saw Yeonjun gave her back stage pass to enter their lounge.

'Did I give off such a good first impression. For him to trust me so quickly? ' she wondered before she shrug it off and quickly made a detour to the lockers where the participants personal belongings were kept . She kept the pass in the locker alloted to her and locked it before going to the waiting room where her team members were waiting.

The rest of the time they watched and evaluated other groups performing before them and also gave each other pep talks and advices for all the possible scenarios they could think of happening on stage. And in between all this the time passed by so quickly that it was already their turn. They all huddled together and did their cheer before going up on stage fully ready to rock this.
