“Thanks,” | whisper, smiling at it before | quickly get out of bed and pull on my slippers. I'm in an oversized

nightshirt, but I don’t have tto change.

| grab my keys and phone and sneak into the hall, crossing the empty tiled hall to Zade’s door. It feels strange

using this side, but | don’t really have an option. The question is, will he answer it?

Hmm, what should | do?

Maybe | should try to make peace sother way....

But | don’t even know what he likes...

Frowning, | stand there staring at my slippers just as my phone beeps and | look down to see it's Cassian... |

regret giving him my number, | hope he isn’t pushy, maybe next tI'll make it clear I'm not single....

Iam, but I'm not interested in him.

Exhaling, | raise my hand to knock when I pause, my knuckles millimetres from the door. What if | just make him

angry again?

“Zade?” | call quietly, no reply. “Zade, can you please not ignore me?”

At this rate, I'm going to have to do something drastic to get his attention!

But what?

I knock a few more times, he doesn’t answer, and | sigh, pressing my forehead to the cold door. “Zade, | know

you're pissed, but please... can | just speak to you?”

He ignoresagain, and my shoulders slump in defeat.

What more can | do?

Give him a little more time... maybe he’ll cool off... seeing him so angry was not something I'm used to, and it

did throwoff a little, but it was also proof he needs time.

Maybe tomorrow...

The following morning, he doesn’t answer again, but | am certain he didn’t leave unless he somehow managed

to sneak away, although | was half asleep, half awake, keeping my ear out for any sounds of the door opening

and shutting.

| feel exhausted as | get ready for work, putting on a bit of makeup to appear normal. As much as | wish | could

take another day off, | can’t, not when the

cases of the new virus are on the rise.

| run my fingers through my hair before putting my shoes on and leaving for work. As | predicted, it is an

extremely busy day but at least keeping busy meant | didn’t have to talk to Cassian although | do need to

decline his invitation, but I didn’t get the chance today.

5 pm comes and | get into the car to return hfeeling as if death has hit me. I'm so tired, but | need to talk to

Zade.

Maybe if | took the sramen, he gotas a peace offering, he’d letspeak. to him. | don’t think that’s

going to work, but it's worth a try, right?

| think | will do that. After all, I'm not sure he’s even been eating, not that I've been eating great. Well, let's see

what tonight brings...

Evening comes and | am outside of Zade’s apartment again with a bag that contains two steaming pots of

delicious large portions of ramen.

“Zade? Can you at least open up? | have ramen.” | call, wishing he’d answer. | wait, hoping the smell of the

noodles tempts him, but once again, I'm met with silence. “Fine, don’t talk to me, but if you want the ramen, I'm

leaving it outside the door.”

Defeated, | place them down, wondering what more | could do.

I'm heading back to my room when | stop in my tracks, a sudden thought coming to my mind.

Oh yes,

drastic times call for drastic measures.

I'll just camp outside his door. He'll have to open it at spoint. Deciding to do just that, | go over to my

apartment door silently, opening and shutting the door with a snap before | silently tip-toe back to Zade’s door

and as quietly as possible

sit down.

There. Excellent.

Now | just hope he comes for the ramen, and | can jump inside and force him to listen to him.

Excellent plan!

Or maybe not...

My phone's dead, so I'm not sure how much thas passed, but | know it’s dark outside. The sound of crickets

reache my ears, and | can hear the woman on the bottom floor shouting for her son to get inside. A clear sign

that it’s late.

Con Zade... open up...

I'm exhausted. | didn’t even change out of my clothes since getting back from work. | haven't eaten and my

stomach hurts. How many meals have | been missing, anyway?

I've lost count... and I'm so tired....

I'm feeling sleepy, but | refuse to let my eyes drop. What if he opens the door and grabs the food?

No, I'm going to wait here until he givesa chance...

Just one more time...

Because | know how it feels when you respect the other person’s wishes only for it to waste years because of a

misunderstanding.

Life's short...

| yawn, shaking my head to push the sleepiness away.

Con...Zade...

My head lolls, my chin hitting my chest, but | refuse to let sleep overcme. Open up... con....
