New Way 5

It has been only a day since Lia left but Yano was already worried. Wasn't a day equal to two to three years in the abyss? What did Lia do there? Did something happen that kept her there for so long?

Yano paced up and down in his room. In his restlessness, he started to water the flowers that were already drowning. Yano always felt anxious regarding Lia, even though he was trying to calm himself it was futile.

If Lia saw him like this she'd either make fun of him or disdain him. Any affection he showed her was met with resistance.

Just when Yano was swept away by his thoughts, a knock appeared and Zero's head peeked from the door, "Yano, it's lunchtime."

"Huh what? Oh ok," Yano's nervous walking came to a stop and he turned to Zero.

Seeing Yano like this, Zero pursed his lips and crossed his arms, "If you're so worried about Lia why don't you contact her? You can do it, right?"
