The atmosphere in the villa is thick with tension. The camera zooms in on Dalihé as she stands up, her heart pounding in her chest. The islanders are watching, and the moment has arrived. Sarah Hyland calls out her name, and the soft hum of the firepit only adds to the weight of the moment. The sun is low, casting a golden glow across the villa, but Dalihé is feeling anything but light.
Sarah Hyland: "Dalihé, do you want to stay loyal to Isaiah, or will you choose to recouple with someone else?"
Dalihé's breath catches in her throat. She closes her eyes for a brief moment, trying to steady herself. She's been dreading this question, but she knows what she has to say. Slowly, she opens her eyes, the tears just starting to form at the corners, and begins speaking. Her voice is shaky at first, but it grows stronger as she finds the courage to speak from the heart.
Dalihé: "This... this is the hardest decision I've ever had to make. And I know you all are probably thinking that it's easy—because we're in the villa and there are so many good people around. But with Isaiah... it's different. He's different."
Her voice cracks, and the tears she's been holding back finally start to fall. Justine, who's seated just behind her, reaches forward and gently takes her hand, squeezing it with reassuring warmth. Dalihé glances at him for a moment—just a quick glance, but it's enough for her to feel grounded in the chaos of emotions swirling inside her. Justine is her older brother in this moment—her protector and her anchor.
Dalihé looks back at the group, her chest tight as she continues to speak, her words punctuated by the occasional sob.
Dalihé: "I've never been someone who trusts easily. I've always been guarded. I've always been afraid to let people in because... because I've been hurt. It's hard for me to open up to anyone, let alone let someone... let someone love me. But with Isaiah, it just felt different."
The camera captures the other islanders as they quietly watch Dalihé, each of them understanding the weight of her words. Syd, sitting nearby, wipes her own tears. Zeda glances at Deb, both of them silently nodding in support of Dalihé's courage.
Dalihé: "When I met Isaiah, I felt something I'd never felt before. He was patient with me when I was closed off. He never pushed me—he never made me feel like I was too much or not enough. And slowly, I started to let my guard down. He made me feel safe enough to open up. Safe enough to trust again."
The words seem to escape her as she struggles to hold back the flood of emotions. She looks down at her hands, the tears now flowing freely down her cheeks. Justine, ever the supportive brother, gives her hand another comforting squeeze.
Dalihé: "I've always been afraid of being vulnerable. I didn't want to let anyone in because what if they left? What if I opened up, and then... they just walked away? But Isaiah, he didn't leave. He didn't run. And that's why I'm standing here today, saying that I choose to stay loyal to him."
At this moment, the entire villa is holding its breath. Isaiah watches from Casa Amor, his face full of emotion. He can feel every word that Dalihé is saying, and in his heart, he knows that they've shared something real—something worth fighting for.
Dalihé looks up, her face streaked with tears, but her eyes burn with determination and love.
Dalihé: "I miss him so much. I miss the way he listens to me. I miss his voice, the way he makes me feel like I matter. I can't wait to see him again. I just... I don't want to give up on this, on what we have. Because I know, deep down, he feels the same way about me."
Justine, still holding her hand, looks at her with deep sympathy. Dalihé's emotional words are a declaration of not only loyalty but also a deep trust in the man she's chosen. The emotion is thick in the air—so heavy that it feels as though the whole world has stopped just for this moment.
Dalihé: "Isaiah showed me a different side of love. One where you don't have to be perfect. You don't have to hide. And for the first time, I'm not scared. Not scared of being myself, not scared of loving someone. So, I'm staying loyal to him. He's worth it. He's worth all the fear, all the vulnerability, because I believe in us."
There's a pause as she finishes speaking. Her shoulders shake with the weight of her emotions, and the room is silent. Sarah Hyland, who has been watching this emotional exchange closely, nods softly.
Sarah Hyland: "Dalihé, you've made a choice. You've chosen to stay loyal to Isaiah."
The camera focuses on Dalihé as she stands up tall, her face now flushed from the tears, but her expression one of relief. She takes a deep breath, wiping her face with the back of her hand, and looks toward the others. Justine gives her a quiet, supportive smile. He knows how much this meant for her. Syd, Zeda, and Deb share a look of admiration for Dalihé's courage.
Justine squeezes her hand one last time, his face filled with pride for his younger sister, before he whispers softly, almost as though to himself, "You've got this."
As Isaiah enters the villa, single . Dalihé stands up, her heart racing in anticipation. Isaiah walks toward her, his eyes locking with hers. There's no need for words; the emotion in their gaze says it all. Isaiah reaches her, and without hesitation, he pulls her into a tight embrace.
The entire villa erupts into cheers. Syd, Zeda, and the others are on their feet, clapping and celebrating this powerful moment of loyalty, love, and connection. Dalihé clings to Isaiah, tears still streaming down her face, but this time they're tears of relief and joy.
Dalihé: "I knew you wouldn't let me down."
Isaiah smiles, his voice low but filled with affection.
Isaiah: "I'm here for you, always."
And in that moment, all the doubts and fears fade away. Dalihé knows that the love she has for Isaiah is real, and this connection they've built will carry them forward. Together. Forever.
Sarah Hyland: "Dalihé and Isaiah are officially back together! What a beautiful display of loyalty and love!"
The scene fades out as the camera zooms in on their intertwined hands—two souls that have found something worth holding on to.
