Aloïsia's POV
I got out of bed and headed to the kitchen to grab some cereal after getting fresh. Started singing loudly forgetting the fact that I have a roommate, should've seen my face when I recalled it :)
Well, don't care if he thinks I'm a weirdo, gotta get ready for work now.
A few hours later
I return home and his door is still locked, is he the shut in type? He didn't seem to talk much either. I knocked on his door just to check if the poor man's alive. No answer...
Okay... now I'm anxious, what if he's really dead..
or even worse... what if he left something illegal behind and ran away. After several minutes of hesitation I finally decided to open the door. Praying to god, I placed my hand on the handle and I jumped when :)
When he suddenly opened the outside door and saw me standing next to his room. "Hey, didn't know you went outside, I was just uh, just checking if you need anything."
He didn't reply and started carrying a lot of bags inside one by one. I felt awkward and went to my room, closed the door slowly behind me. Just checking if you NEED ANYTHING?! Really Aloïsia?? Ugh I could've just rejected him and gotten someone more friendly and open minded to be my flatmate. I didn't even discuss it with the landlord, if he ever damages any of the property or stores any kind of illegal substances then I'll be the one getting in trouble. And...
...now he's knocking at my door
"What is it?" I ask with a loud tone, instead of unlocking the door. Silence..
Does this man ever talk? -_- I opened the door and— he gave me a box of pizza.
"Is this—"
"It's for you." He replied, interrupting my question which he didn't even let me finish :)
"goodness, thanks Alvin, but won't you have any?"
He brought his other arm within my field of vision from behind the door, "Oh alright then, thanks! I really appreciate it!" He had his own box of pizza, he did a thumbs up before leaving to his room.
Now here I am laying on the bed, playing my favorite songs. I thought to myself, "Maybe he's not a bad person after all." while enjoying the delicious pizza he got me.
