A Masterpiece

Chapter 1 - First day

I gaze out the window, the bus causing me to jump up my seat multiple times. I soon close my eyes enjoying the song i was playing, i made sure the volume was the loudest so i wouldn't have to hear people talking and the loud sound of the bus's engine.

I felt a finger tap my shoulder three times, "Sir.. We've arrived at Seoul." A woman said. I noticed that the bus stopped and my songs have stopped too. I could clearly hear the woman's voice since my phone died as i listened to my whole playlist. I show her a smile and nodded, i noticed she had a baby in her arm. It cried loudly, "Thank you.." I said, the ends of my mouth touching ear to ear.

I walk out the bus and take out my suitcase, being very careful since there's my fragile laptop inside. Before i went on the bus, i booked a residence that fits my budget, 109 won every month. I inhaled the air of Seoul, closing my eyes enjoying the wind blow onto my face. I then remembered my phone died on my way here, shit, i thought to myself. Then i guess i have to ask people around Seoul for directions, god what a day.

After an exhausting day looking for this cheap ass residence, i finally found it. I pant heavily, i was soaking from my own sweat, i look up at the residence. It looked so dirty, it had five floors, i could see the fact that this tall building barely had windows, but there was, it was really tiny. "Alright.. Be grateful, just like mom said." I groaned, swinging my head backwards. I quickly pick my heavy suitcase up the stairs. I drop my suitcase aggressively, bowing down. Catching my breath, i could barely breathe.

After a few moments of standing under the sun, i decided to walk into the building. I went up the second floor, i saw a door and opened it. Inside was nothing but a tiny room, "Ew.. Definitely not this floor." I thought to myself. I walk up the stairs once again, slowly, with the suitcase in my fist. There was another door in front of me, i breathe heavily dropping my suitcase onto the floor. I saw a woman approaching me, "Oh dear boy. You need help. Come here come here!" She said in a worried tone, taking my suitcase away from me.

I pant holding my chest, this whole day i was walking up stairs, taking trains without music just to go to this horrible residence, the light was dim, the walls had brown stain on them, the scent of the place was just disturbing, i couldn't explain how bad this place was.

"Here drink up!" The woman hands me a glass of water, signaling me to follow her to the desk. She sits me down and she takes a seat next to me. After finishing the entire glass, i let out a heavy sigh. I placed the glass on the desk, the woman beside me must be the landlady, "Thank you so much.." I faced to her, smiling as my lips went thinner, she smiled so widely at me i could barely see her eyes.

It made me uncomfortable as she just stared at me, moments after such a loud silence, she started speaking out of nowhere like she glitched or something, "Oh! Of course! No problem!" She said acting so excited for no reason. I smiled awkwardly and quickly stood up for my seat. I then asked her where my room was and i told her that i was the guy who called. She replied to me saying she knows and hands me a keys to the room 303, she then hands me another key saying i can't lose that key, "Keep it somewhere safe so that you can use this key if you lost the other one. But don't lose it, handsome young man!" She smiled a very forceful smile once again.

I excuse myself, i headed towards my room, i open it to see an extremely uncomfortable small room, a small bed against the wall and a desk in front of it. My distance from the table was far but i could see the dust living on that wooden desk. Wow, wonderful.

After hours of cleaning the room, dusting and organizing my things, i lay on the bed, it was hard. Mold living inside the pillow, why wouldn't the landlady clean these rooms up? I gave myself a tour of the place, the landlady says not to go into the fourth floor. A fire happened there and no one lives there anymore, she said it was for women. As soon as i saw the shower i gagged but i had to shower.

After showering, i finally went to my room not noticing the outside was dark already. I struggle to sleep, i couldn't stop sneezing, this room caused me to sweat once again. So i had no other choice but to take my top off, i really hated it when everything was so dirty and hot, so the entire night i was mad at the blanket, soon i aggressively throw it onto the floor.
