One Minus One 9 - Feel Given a Chance
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
One Minus One 10 - Exclusive Video Call
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
One Minus One 11 - Worried
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
One Minus One 12 - Serious Discussion
"Why are you quiet? That means you don't love me?" Zero asked about Zeva's silence. Then, Zero heaves a sigh. It made Zeva think that Zero was disappointed in her. When Zeva was about to speak out to express her feelings, suddenly Zero spoke again, "It's okay, it's okay. I know why you don't love me."Hearing that, made Zeva eager to deny what Zero concluded. Zeva was ready to speak, but again Zero was the first to continue speaking again, "But... you love me too much, right?""Ugh… don’t be overconfident," said Zeva in a tone like denial, but in fact, her expression could not lie. If only they were making video calls now, instead of regular phone calls, Zero could see Zeva's awkward expression clearly which unconsciously turned into a shy smile. "It's true, right? Come on, Zeva. Just admit it. Don't be shy to express your feelings to me frankly." Zero is still teasing Zeva. "Shhh, why does he even tease me, anyway," thought Zeva.Yeah, that's Zero's strength, just now he made Ze
One Minus One 13 - Welcome Home
Since waking up this morning, Zeva has been grumpy. Maybe it's more accurate to wake up in the afternoon because Zeva woke up late. Yeah, how did she not oversleep, Zeva slept nearly morning. The cause of Zeva's grumpy mood is that there is no news of any chat from Zero. Of course, it wasn't as usual. Actually, Zeva can already guess the reason why Zero didn't send her a chat. Because last night or rather a third of last night when Zero pointed at her with a series of questions that were quite heavy, Zeva decided not to answer. Of course, Zeva did not explicitly say that she did not want to answer. However, Zeva distracts Zero by using the excuse that she is very sleepy and wants to sleep immediately. As a result, Zero complied with Zeva's wishes by ending their telephone connection. Zeva could tell that Zero was disappointed in her from Zero's tone of voice saying goodnight, unlike usual. Zero said it very flatly and only said two words, namely "Good night."Zeva hopes that Zero
One Minus One 14 - Intimate
Once Sky had entered Zeva's house, Zeva just could heave a sigh. Then, instead of closing the door, Zeva opened the door of her house widely. Previously, when Sky visited there was always Runa or Gamma or both, but now there is only Zeva alone. Zeva will feel awkward if she is alone with Sky. Moreover, they haven't communicated in a long time. Except for yesterday, and that was only because of work. After that, Zeva immediately went inside, following Sky who was already sitting on the sofa in the lounge room. Indeed, that is the only spot in Zeva's house that is suitable for relaxing. In fact, Zeva's house is relatively small, there are only two bedrooms equipped with a bathroom, living room, lounge, and kitchen area. "Please sit down, Zev," said Sky when he saw Zeva who just stood there. "Whose house is this, anyway? Why did he even tell me to sit down, as if he was the host and I was the guest?" thought Zeva. Zeva sighed, then opened her voice, "What do you want to drink?"
One Minus One 15 - Reminiscing
Zero's unilateral disconnection made Zeva chuckle, "Tsk. Why does he like making accusations so much? Even though he didn't see how it was." Then, suddenly a voice from Sky called from the kitchen, with a little shout, "Zev, come here a moment, please." "That's also one thing, why is he asking me to come over? Why didn't he just come to me here?" grumbled Zeva. Even though she grumbled, Zeva still got up from her seat to fulfill Sky's request who asked her to go to the kitchen. "Why?" asked Zeva as soon as she reached the kitchen. "Help me to prepare the dishes, Zev, let's hurry," said Sky while still focusing on stirring the food in a pot on a burning stove. "Well, he even gives me orders," thought Zeva. Zeva instantly recalled Zero's accusations against her. Zeva thought if for example, she helped Sky, did all of Zero's accusations against her come true? "Did you also say that you're ready to do it? Then, in the end, you even asked me to help you," complained Zeva. "We
One Minus One 16 - Lost Contact
It's been two days since Zeva lost contact with Zero. Zero didn't contact Zeva at all. Likewise with Zeva. In Zeva’s case, it's clearly due to her pride. The reason is the last time the one who disconnected the phone call unilaterally was Zero. So, Zeva felt that it should be Zero who reach out to her first. Especially since Zero had accused her of things without any clear evidence. Zero was the one at fault, and Zero should apologize to her. Even though for those two days Zeva was busy outside the house because she worked to take pictures of her clients, on the sidelines of the shoot Zeva occasionally checked her cell phone. Undeniably, Zeva was waiting for Zero to contact her. "Does this mean he wants our relationship to end right away, right?" thought Zeva, seeing that there was still no incoming notification from Zero on her cell phone. "But wait, what's really going to end? It's not clear what relationship we are in." Zeva corrected her own thoughts. Then, suddenly a voic
