@Raydnt There lies a certain danger in that scenario, though, which is why I prefer a more passive (slow) approach. In a sudden, active scenario Yae wouldn't have time to think and search her own feelings, and thus there's a distinct risk she would instead, with the best of intentions, congratulate Zen and tell the random girl she's rooting for her. Even if Yae later realised what it means and started to regret it, the thing is that it would majorly hurt Zen. Although Yae is the one holding them back, a relationship is still about both of them. Zen matters as much.
