Eta came next to Rehi, still laughing loudly and said, "Rehi...you don't even stand a chance against him...do you?"
But Zero was just on the topic, and started thinking again, "I need clothes for her first."
And suddenly Eta, Beta and Epsilon stopped laughing, became serious and came to Zero and asked, "You need clothes for her? Why?"
Zero started sweating, "Um... nothing, but she doesn't has any another costume. I planned to take her for shopping but looking at her condition, after crying a lot she was feeling cold. So she and I cancelled, and now I am thinking to already bring clothes for her and tomorrow we will go for shopping."
Eta and Beta kept their arms on Zero's shoulders and Epsilon jumped on him, hanging behind and they all three asked, "Need help for warm clothes for her?"
Zero thought for a second, he was planning to do it on his own and buy something for her but now...
"You all are girls...so yes, it will be great if you helped. I don't understand girls and their fashion anyways."
Eta, Epsilon and Beta nodded their heads, and said, "Yes, it's a good idea. Rehi, we are out of the day, we will go and buy for Sacreficer's girl's costume."
Rehi became normal, and denied immediately, "You all won't do that. No leave for today."
Eta, Epsilon and Beta were shocked, "So... ruthless...Rehi."
Rehi started sweating, but explained, "Come on, shopping for just one cloth will take the whole night for you all? Just take thirty minutes and help him, that's all."
Eta, Epsilon and Beta sighed and Zero was just watching and hearing of others.
"Ok, fine. But at least give thirty minutes to us. Already most of the shops are closed at nights anyways."
Rehi sighed, "Fine."
And Eta, Beta, Epsilon and Zero started walking away--
"But at least listen to mefor what I am here." But Rehi stopped them again and Eta, Beta, Epsilon and Zero stopped and looked at him.
The midnight arrived and Zero was walking with a big bag in his hands and Eta, Beta and Epsilon were also walking with him, just looking at the night sky and continued patrolling.
"Sacreficer," But suddenly Eta called and Zero looked back at her. Eta was curious about something and she looked at him and asked, "...Why you don't want to join the camping? It's just of a few months and we may also find a clue to the main Parasite or even found him and end it."
Zero turned his face and looked at the sky, and answered, "I... don't want to leave my house. And it's of no use in my view, I believe."
Epsilon didn't understand one thing, "Your house won't go anywhere. And why there's no use in it, everyone will be in it. The apocalypse can't be controlled anyways, it will come and you will need to become a part of the camping anyways."
Zero started sweating, "But there's another thing...there will be ranking and writing tests? I don't want to go to school anymore."
And Eta, Beta and Epsilon started sweating and Beta asked, "So you are afraid to school? Nothing else?"
The night passed, and the sky became dark blue as the dawn started arriving.
Zero finally came back to his home, opened the door and entered with the big bag. He kept the bag aside at the living room's table and moved to start his day.
Alpha woke up, rubbing her eyes and opened the door. She slept too much, she realized it but she hadn't go to school anyways. She looked at the house, and there was no one. But sleepy Alpha just kept everything aside, moved towards the living room, sat down on the floor and kept her head on the table and ordered, "I...want warm water. I am really feeling... thirsty." And Alpha slept once again.
Zero came from his bathroom after a bath, ready and in new costume but still wearing the mask and asked, "You want water?"
Sleepy Alpha just nodded her head while her eyes were just closed and she was almost asleep again.
Zero came to the kitchen, with a towel on his hairs trying to dry his wet hairs and started boiling water for Alpha.
The water was boiled...but now Zero was lost in a question, "If I kept the warm water from the only metal container I had, to plastic or paper cups, it will burn and melt it down..."
So Zero just kept the metal container in front of Alpha and also joined some cold water to stable and make the hot water drinkable and won't burn Alpha's mouth.
Alpha woke up again, looked at the container and started sweating while still sleepy, "...Is it hot to touch?" She didn't expect that Zero would give her in a glass or cup anyways.
Zero sat in front of the wooden floor in front of Alpha and said, "Yes, that's not so much hot."
Alpha touched the container and it was hot but not too much. She was able to hold it and she just started drinking it.
Alpha's thirst was relieved and she kept the container aside and kept her head down again and said, "Thank you...for water..."
Zero smiled, he was happy that he could help her...but just one thing was coming in his mind. It was the big bag and he stood, picked up the container and started leaving while saying, "Just check out at the bag next to you, when you wake up."
Alpha wasn't completely asleep so she just woke up again, looked at the big bag and started opening it.
"It's for me...?"
"Yup! It's for you. Leader and my two companions helped me for that."
Alpha took out everything and looked at it... and suddenly her eyes opened with a shock.
It was a white scarf, white thick jacket and a white cap which Alpha definitely loved. She picked up the jacket, her cheeks were red and she asked with curiosity, "Did you brought it?! And... doesn't the jacket looks a little bit big?"
Zero smiled and answered,"It all were their choices, of my companions. And Leader suggested the big jacket because we didn't know your size and it was better to choose a big one, it will keep you more warm."
