"It's Christmas Eve, so please, do me a huge favor. Our relationship is fake anyway, so why are you making a big deal out of it? Besides, if you ever need help with something, I'll be there for you. Isn't that enough?"
Zelda Miller was practically dying of anxiety. It was Christmas Eve, and she had to spend it with her boyfriend.
Zachary Redgrave sat cross-legged on the sofa. He thought for a few seconds before saying, "Remember this: you owe me two favors now."
"I won't forget. It's almost time, so hurry up and get over here."

Zoe Yates came out of his bedroom, so absorbed in his phone that he walked straight into Zachary Redgrave's chest. "Sorry, Redgrave! I didn't hurt you, did I?"
"Are your eyes glued to your phone? Watch where you're going."
Zachary Redgrave rubbed his aching chest and started walking toward his room.
