┃EXORDIUM。

𔘓 〞“i'm going to miss you seon woo, always call us or text us okay? chat us in kakao talk if there's an  emergency, if you need something, if you feel sick—.” seon woo hugs the woman tightly, tears brimming her eyes as she puts her hands on his frail waist. she's going to be worried sick about him leaving the house for the first time, away from them. seon woo on the other hand couldn't believe that today's gonna be the day, the last day of him staying at his home.  the emotions that he has been feeling are mixed, he feels ecstatic yet nervous.

“i'm going to be okay mom, i'll let you know if something happened and i'm going to miss both of you—all of you.” he reassures, pulling away from the hug, his mother carefully cups his cheeks and gives him a peck. “you're dad is going to text you later, i'm sorry seon woo-yah i tried. he's sorry because he couldn't go home immediately, his boss asked him for another overtime.” seon woo can sense the worry in her voice. he then chuckles at her, “no need to apologize mom, i understand it. i need to go, i don't want to catch up the night.”

“of course, i love you” she said with a gloomy smile yet her soft voice is filled with affection. “i know, i love you too.” seon woo said before leaving the house. he pulls his luggage and tightly grasp on the strap of his backpack, he closes his fox-like eyes for a minute and let the wind flow against him. strands of his hair fly along with the chilly wind.  he smile at the sky, “finally.” he beams.

his trip to his destination was almost 6 to 7 hours. he swears that his ass was at the verge of cramping because he sat that long. standing in front of the huge building towering his figure, he can't suppress the feeling of excitement. he giggles and does a little dance that made the people look at him and he earns giggles from them. he couldn't care less if they think he's a weirdo. he clears his throat and lightly slap his cheek 3 times before going inside the establishment.

“hi! i'm the new tenant.” he exclaims showing his famous sweet smile that automatically pulls his eye smile. the person in front of him cooes at his adorable demeanor. “name?”, she asks while looking at the computer, “kim seon woo.” he replies, only earning a nod. it took for about 2 minutes when she hands him his key with a tag written on what floor his room is located and the number.

“i already expect that you know the rules and regulations here.” she said, grinning. he hums in response. momentarily, he goes in front of the elevator and pushes the button up while waiting for the elevator, he wishes for his neighboring rooms to be friendly and quiet. it's not like he's against about the noises that mostly accidental or whatnot, it's just he wants some peace and quiet place. having cousins coming over the house and keeps pestering him does affect his studies. he can't concentrate enough and getting distracted by the background noise from his cousins really tests his patience. train of thoughts suddenly goes away when he snaps back into reality, the elevator opens without any people inside.

when the elevator reaches the 5th floor, in a flash, he stride his way out of the elevator and goes to his designated room. he squeals when he opens the door, revealing an empty space with some of his boxes. it may be empty but it is spacious for him. though it's not the first time he has seen the place but he still feels like it was the first time. he close the door shut behind him and without anything else to thing of he goes to his belongings and sits on the floor.

he carefully slits the tape that secures the box with a knife, thoughts keep running through his brain out of excitement such as he'll definitely live peacefully here unlike in his house there are bunch of relatives of his coming around since they live in a neighborhood where their relatives live close by. in spite of that, he never really mind it since he have gotten closer with his cousins which made him have a lot of friends than in highschool although the thought of being alone and having peace doesn't seem bad.

once he finishes unpacking all of his stuff, he faintly hears the a creaking sound of a door being opened. without realizing a rush of excitement runs through his body,  'it's not that bad of an idea if i say hello to my neighbor.' he mentally said, while grinning like an idiot. he stands up and rushes to the door, he swings it open like a kid excited to see his parent that just came home. he peeks at the right side of the corridor and see a tall guy with a lollipop in his mouth looking down at him with furrowed brows. seon woo feels his blood rushing up to his cheeks, he felt stupid. he quickly fix his composure and stood straight.

“h-hi! good evening! i'm kim seon woo! your new neighbor! nice to meet you!”, he enthusiastically blurted and gives the black haired male a little wave. his smile spread ear to ear. the latter just stood there looking at him with a straight face, unfazed. seon woo bites his lower lip in embarrassment. 'isn't he going to greet me back?', both of them share an awkward minute of gaze. seon woo for a second felt like a clown.

“nishimura riki, just ni-ki.” the other nonchalantly said, it was evident in his face, the uninterested expression. “ni-ki...it's c—”, seon woo blinks rapidly when the ni-ki goes inside his own room without letting him finish his sentence, door shutting loudly made seon woo flinch. “what the—rude!”, he huffs and pouts, he rolls his eyes and goes back inside his room. 'whatever, maybe he had a bad day, i'll try again tommorow' he nod at his own thoughts.
