"So now you're alone here?" Zero asked Zeva when he arrived in front of Zeva's house.
Yes, because it was late, finally Zero took Zeva home. Earlier, Zero asked Zeva to come with him to accompany Liora shopping and sightseeing, because tomorrow they would immediately return to their homeland, Indonesia.
Zeva just found out that Zero has been here for three days. The reason Zero didn't tell Zeva that he was here was because of Liora's tight control schedule. So, the main purpose of Zero's return to this time was to accompany Liora for treatment, not to meet Zeva.
Realizing that there was no time to meet Zeva, Zero decided not to tell Zeva that he was there. Besides that, Zero also actually planned to surprise Zeva today, because today Liora's control schedule was over. However, in fact, Zero and Zeva both get a surprise meeting naturally, and unexpectedly.
During the walk, Liora also often asked Zeva to take pictures of her in spots with views that she thought were good. Liora's attitude did not seem awkward toward Zeva, it was enough to explain to Zeva that Liora didn't know about her problem with Sky. That means, there's a part of the story about Zeva that Sky didn't tell Liora about.
"Yes," answered Zeva, nodding her head.
"Do you dare to be alone?" asked Zero.
"Yes. Why should I not dare? I've lived here for three years, it's not a foreign place for me," said Zeva.
"I know you've been here a long time. But, what if there is a stranger who has evil intentions for you? After all, you are a girl, you know," said Zero, expressing his worries to Zeva.
Zeva did not immediately respond to Zero, Zeva instead silently stared at Zero.
"Why are you even looking at me like that?" asked Zero.
Zeva wanted to say, "Are you worried about me? If so, why don't you stay here to accompany and take care of me?"
However, again Zeva's sense of prestige dominates. Instead of saying that, Zeva said, "It's okay. Alright, go back there. It's a shame Liora has fallen asleep in the car for a long time."
"Well, instead of offering me to go in first, you just kicked me out," said Zero, who felt Zeva shoo him away subtly by taking Liora asleep in the car as an excuse.
"On purpose, I didn't want to bother myself with making you drink. Incidentally, the stock of ready-to-drink drinks has also run out," said Zeva.
"Well, I also didn't expect to be given a drink by you," replied Zero.
Zeva was at her wit's end to respond to Zero.
Then, suddenly they heard a voice, "Zero."
Zeva and Zero were compactly directing their eyes to the source of the sound. Yes, it was Liora's voice, coming from inside the car.
"See, Liora already called you," said Zeva.
This time Liora seemed to be acting as the afternoon's hero for Zeva. With Liora calling Zero, it indicated that Liora urged Zero to immediately return to their inn. And that means Zeva doesn't have to bother herself to think about what other reasons she has to give so that Zero doesn't come into her house.
It's nothing, Zeva's heart has been beating abnormally every time she's close to Zero. Then, what if she's alone with Zero in the house? Zeva doesn't want Zero to know that she's nervous.
Zero looked back at Zeva while showing his welding face.
"I still miss you so much," said Zero.
If she wants to follow her heart, Zeva also really wants to reply, "Yeah, I still really miss you too."
However, again what came out of Zeva's mouth was different from what her heart said. Zeva instead remained on her feet, telling Zero to immediately return.
"Well, go back there," said Zeva.
"You really don't miss me anymore?" Zero asked again.
"I should be the one asking you, do you really miss me?" Zeva asked back.
"Yes, of course. Do you still doubt how much I miss you?" Zero replied.
"Yes, if you really miss me, when you have landed here again, you immediately would find me or ask me to accompany you," said Zeva.
Yes, to be honest, Zeva was still annoyed at Zero who didn't immediately inform her if it turned out that he had returned here. Moreover, when remembering how grumpy Zeva was waiting for a chat from Zero every morning.
"You still have a problem with that? I already explained it to you," replied Zero.
This time Zeva was silent. Zeva felt it was impossible to reveal her uniqueness to Zero. In addition to not wanting Zero to consider her selfish, Zeva is also aware that Zero and she are not bound by any relationship. So, Zeva felt she had no right to whine at Zero.
Then, suddenly they were startled by the sound of a car horn. Yes, the culprit who honked the horn was Liora. It looks like Liora really doesn't like waiting for Zero who has been talking to Zeva for a long time. It is indicated that Liora honked her horn not once or twice, but many times.
"Well, hurry up, go back there. Later, the neighbors will protest," Zeva urged Zero, who seemed worried that his neighbors would be surprised and disturbed by Zero's car horn.
It's nothing, if the neighbors come out, Zeva will definitely be affected. After all, the sound comes from Zeva's guest car.
"Well, Liora has a very impatient habit," complained Zero.
"Then I'll be back, okay? Remember to reply to the chat from me, don't just read it," said Zero, who alluded to the chat earlier this morning which Zeva simply ignored.
Before actually leaving, Zero took the time to gently caress the top of Zeva's head while saying, "See you, my dear photographer."
Then, Zero hurriedly rushed to his car. After Zero's car left the yard of Zeva's house, Zeva cupped her hot cheeks.
"My dear," Zeva repeated Zero's call to her just now.
Zeva became embarrassed and smiled to herself. Zeva felt that Zero's treatment and words just now were very sweet. Before feeling her behavior was getting worse, Zeva rushed into her house.
***
That night, Zeva never closed her eyes. Zeva had been staring at the screen of her cell phone. The reason is, Zeva is waiting for an incoming chat notification from Zero which never comes.
"What if you were warning me so that the chat was replied to, don't just read it. In fact, you don't even send me a chat." Zeva monologue.
Even though Zeva is very often grumpy if she hasn't received a chat from Zero, Zeva still doesn't want to lower her ego to send a chat to Zero first. Yes, again because Zeva is prestigious.
Right after Zeva's monologue, Zeva was surprised by her doorbell suddenly ringing. Zeva immediately got up from her bed with a frown that had formed on her forehead. Zeva was wondering, who could be visiting her house at this time of night.
"Is there a neighbor who wants to ask for help, huh?" Zeva's monologue.
"Well, let's just open it first, who knows there's something important."
Then, Zeva immediately came out of her room and rushed to open the door to her house. As soon as Zeva opened the door, Zeva was immediately greeted with a chorus, "Surprise."
Inevitably, as if to represent the meaning of the exclamation, Zeva was really surprised. Moreover, seeing who the figure standing in front of her was now. "Zero," said Zeva. Yes, the person who gave the surprise was Zero. "What are you doing here? Why didn't you tell me first?" point Zeva, having managed to control her shock. "It's the rules of giving a surprise. No one wants to give a surprise but tell the target beforehand," said Zero. "Surprise for what? It's not my birthday anymore," said Zeva, who still didn't understand the surprise Zero meant. "Is it true that a surprise should only be addressed to the person who is having a birthday? No, right? If we really want to give a surprise, then we can give it anytime. Especially, for the one who we love," said Zero. "So, where's the surprise?" Zeva asked again."How could you still ask where it is? It's obvious the surprise is right in front of your eyes. I'm the surprise," replied Zero. "Oh, you mean that you are the surpris
Zeva is working with her camera looking at her shots while traveling with Zero and Liora. Of course, there are no photos of herself because Zeva is the photographer. Yeah, that's her consequence of being a photographer. When she gathers or meets people who know her profession, she will always be the target for asking for help to take pictures for them. It's as if her job desk to take pictures is always attached to a photographer, even if she's not on her working time. So there's no need to be surprised why Zeva's photo collection is so minimal. Yeah, once she asked someone else to take a photo of herself, the results did not match Zeva's expectations. In the end, she's too lazy to ask for help to take another photo. Zeva has been pressing the next camera button so far, so that photo by photo appears alternately on the camera screen. Then, Zeva realized that there were more Liora photos with Zero than Liora's photos alone. Maybe for people who don't know that Zero and Liora are
A faint voice sounded so soft but able to disturb Zeva in her sleep."Hey, honey. Get up, come on. It's morning here."Zeva slowly opened her eyes. Zeva was still half awake, she was confused about whether she was still in a dream or in the real world. The reason is, the voice is the same as the voice in the dream earlier. Zeva only realized that it wasn't a dream after seeing her cell phone lying on her right and the soft voice sounded again, "Zeva."Now Zeva is fully aware that the voice is real, not just in her dreams. Yes, the sound comes from her cell phone. And it was Zero's voice. Last night Zeva silenced Zero when Zero informed her that he could not immediately fly to Canada to meet Zeva according to Zeva's request. The reason is, there are still many things that Zero has to take care of in Indonesia, especially since he just returned from Canada two days ago. This is what Zero said last night, responding to Zeva's request, "Zeva, it's not that I don't want to comply with y
"Why are you suddenly here?" Zeva was confused by the presence of Sky who had suddenly sat in the same seat as her. "We've made an appointment. I'm not late, am I?" replied Sky. "Hah? Do not tell …." Because felt so unexpected, Zeva did not finish her sentence. "Don't say what?" asked Sky. "Don't tell me you haven't saved my number?" continued Sky, who even asked back. Getting a question like that, made Zeva speechless. Now Zeva just realized why she felt familiar with this client's phone number. How is it not familiar, in the past, the phone number was already outside Zeva's head? In fact, Zeva made his number the number one emergency call number. "Oh, so you really haven't saved my number. I'm already happy though, you know, you've unblocked my number," said Sky, who took Zeva's silence as an answer that his guess was correct. Yeah, indeed on the day Sky told Zeva that he was going to propose to someone else's daughter, Zeva was angry with Sky. Zeva was angry because all thi
Zeva was still staring at Sky sharply with her hands clenched into fists. However, Sky couldn't see Zeva's fist because it was covered by Zeva's long outer arm. Even so, Sky could still feel that Zeva was very upset with him from the glint in Zeva's eyes. "Arghh," growled Zeva, then immediately turned right and walked towards the bike tour area. Sky was finally able to expand his smile freely. "It turns out that you are still the Zeva I know Zev, hasn't changed," thought Sky in his mind as he continued to watch Zeva who continued to walk from behind. Then, Sky also stepped foot to follow Zeva. "Why are you following me? Go there, don't bother me. I want to work quietly," Zeva grumbled to Sky when she realized that Sky was walking next to her. "Who wants to bother you? I am a client who uses your services. Yeah, of course, I'm following you to monitor. Aren't clients supposed to always follow you when you're taking pictures?" replied Sky. "Shouldn't you be in the frame?" Ze
Zeva's happy expression instantly disappeared. Now Zeva showed her flat expression to Sky. At first, Zeva felt that she could get used to Sky, but because the tone and volume of Sky's voice just now sounded unfriendly and rose in Zeva's ears, Zeva's annoyance at Sky reappeared. "Who's that, Zev?" Zero's voice asked on the other end of the phone. "Zer, sorry, I have to hang up our call. I am at work right now. Please you just continue sleeping if you're still sleepy," said Zeva in response to Zero, then immediately disconnected the phone unilaterally, without waiting for a response from Zero."I know you pay for my services, it's not for free. But… don't you know how to be ethical in reprimanding others?" said Zeva while staring at Sky."Even if you don't want to wait for me to finish the call, you can at least excuse me first, then you reprimand, instead of being outspoken by raising your voice like that to me," continued Zeva, then immediately turned right and continued her steps
When Zeva's finger was typing letter by letter on her cell phone keypad, suddenly Zero's profile photo appeared on her cell phone screen accompanied by a ringing tone. This made Zeva instantly freeze. The reason is, this time it's not just an ordinary incoming call notification from Zero, but a video call notification. Yeah, this is the exclusive video call from Zero to Zeva. Zeva's nervousness this time also increased compared to getting the first regular incoming call notification from Zero at that time. "Huaaa, why did he suddenly make a video call like this, anyway? I'm really shabby, I'm already wearing pajamas to sleep like this." Zeva panicked with her appearance. Zeva hasn't commented on her own appearance in a long time. Usually, when video calls with Runa and Gamma, Zeva doesn't take care of her appearance. Even if she hasn't showered or just woken up, she has immediately accepted the video call. In fact, in the past, it was the same when Zeva used to do video calls wi
After disconnecting the video call, Zeva tried to regain control of her ragged breathing. Yeah, Zeva was having the hardest time getting emotional with Zero's attitude just now. On the one hand, Zeva can understand Zero's nervousness, because Zeva guesses that Zero might be tired or have problems at work. However, on the other hand, Zeva couldn't accept Zero's groundless accusations against her. More precisely, Zeva did not accept Zero bringing up Zeva's feelings for Sky again. It was like Zeva had buried the matter deep, then suddenly Zero tried to pick it up again. "The first video call didn't put me in a happy mood, it even irritated me," grumbled Zeva alone. Right after Zeva grumbled, suddenly a chat notification came in. Then, Zeva stopped grumbling and turned to reach for her cell phone which she had thrown on the bed because she was so annoyed with Zero. Then, Zeva checked it. No, this time it's not a chat from Zero, but from Sky. Zeva's reply to the chat that Zeva ha
