Living alone is sometimes the best thing, but other times it's an agony. If you leave your car keys somewhere, and could not find them, there wouldn't be any person to tell you when they last saw it or help you search for them. It's not about the car keys, but the feeling of being alone. The emptiness.

That's how gulf's house is right now. Everywhere is silent except for the shower running in the bathroom, while the empty bedroom is waiting for gulf to walk in.

It took another 15 minutes for the gulf to come out of the shower with wet hair and a towel around his waist. His body is not wet since he just dried it before getting of the bathroom. Recently, he is not liking the feeling of walking around the house with water dripping from his body.  It looks cool in movies but real life. Nah, His mom would give him a lecture on it.

He walked straight to the bed, which had a fancy bag lying on it. He can see the clothes inside them. The suit was sent by his company. According to the plans, he got off work early today as on Saturday to get ready for the party.

He had his lunch and took a nap before he started to get ready for the party.

He opened the bag to look at the clothes, which didn't look they had any theme to them. Or maybe he didn't just get the theme. It's like any other expensive suit he sees online.

Whatever, It doesn't bother him at all. As long as he got to wear the fancy suit and attend the equally fancy party. He wore the 3 piece beige-colored suit, with a white inner shirt and blue tie.

"Damn. It fitted so well. " Gulf mumbled to himself as he put on his suit, checking himself out in the mirror.

"As they say expensive ones are always better.." gulf talked to himself silly, brushing the invisible dust over this shoulders.

Then he puts on his Rolex watch that he wears only on special occasions, he also wore the new shoe that he bought for the party. Since he was not the one who bought the suit, he decided he would buy a brand new pair of shoes which are of course a little costly than the one he uses every day.

He finished his look before going to stand in front of the mirror again. This time he moved around posing like a model.

"Very handsome. I should rather get into the modeling instead "  Gulf spoke laughing with his hands in the pockets. 

He stood in front of the mirror, setting up his hair until he is satisfied with his looks.

The alarm rang on his phone, indicating it's 5:30 in the evening. He added an alarm in his phone as a warning, in case if he lost time in the middle of getting ready.

"Oo oh 5:30 already " Gulf walked to his bed and turned off the alarm in his phone, which is lying on his bed. 

Just before he could walk away, his phone tinged indicating a text. It's from an unknown number.

Unknown - Hey Gulf, This is mew. I got your number from your application. Thought it would be easy to communicate. Hope it's alright.

Gulf - Good Evening, Boss. Yea Its, not a problem.

Mew - Hm. Are you ready for the party?

Gulf doesn't know why, but he always feels like the 'hm' replies are kinda rude sounding. At least for him, it's like the person is uninterested or doesn't care. Is it just him? Whatever. Nevermind. Anyhow.

Gulf- Yes Boss.

Mew - Are you comfortable with sharing your address? So I can come and pick you up.

Gulf - oh no. I don't wanna trouble you, boss. I can just come to the office.

Mew- There is no trouble, gulf. It feels inappropriate to let you travel around after you got ready, rather than going straight to the party. Please let me pick you up, I want to mess up your style-up.
