The lift breaks down and after calling for help several times the man is forced to sit and wait for help. He is stressed, breathes heavily, and so gets thirsty. He takes a water bottle out of his bag and after a few sips he offers it to the woman who refuses politely. A few moments later she takes the bottle and drinks some of the water, exposing part of her face in the process.
Suddenly the lights in the lift flicker and the man gets injured! When she turns to the man, the woman sees that a piece of mirror fell into his leg. For a few seconds, she watches him, not knowing how to help. She decides to take off her veil, exposing her entire face and hair then she wraps the fabric around the man’s injured leg who can only watch in silence.
It's incredible how different two strangers can be but when it all comes down to it and something happens, the natural instinct is to lend a helping hand regardless of what religion, race, or gender you are.
