"hi?"

jaemin stopped drooling and blinked twice now, the guy in front of him is currently frowning but smiling a bit.

"oh, hi!" jaemin greeted back.

"uh, how can i help you?" he asked softly.

"i'm actually looking for a room to rent," jaemin said as he pointed the placard at the wall. "is it still... available?" he asked.

the guy suddenly frowned because of what he said, when did he let the other rooms to rent? he was already rich as heck to even do that.

"fuck, sungchan."

"s-sorry?" jaemin said, eyes widened as he heard the guy whisper when he saw the placard at the wall.

"no, i mean. it was my friend," the guy said. "sorry to say this but i’m actually not renting any of my room, my friend was just making fun of me and he was the one who did this," he explained.

"i-is that so?" jaemin's voice suddenly went low, probably didn’t expect that.

the guy in front of him looked at jaemin head to toe, he could even see some dirt stain on his clothes like he got lost or something.

"do you really need a place to stay?" he asked calmly.

"yes!" jaemin immediately said. "i mean, yes, please. i can pay though, i just really need a place to stay right now."

letting out a sigh, looks like he can't do anything anymore. if he didn’t do this, his guilt might kill him.

"fine, come in." and he opened the door widely.

a smile flashed on jaemin's face and happily went inside the house. jaemin started to look around and it wasn't kinda surprising that his house just has two to five colors, most of them are just white and black.

there's a living room, jaemin can't even help not to be amazed at how long and wide the television is. there's also a kitchen that doesn't look messy and looks like even the utensils were inside of those drawers.

"fifteen thousand a month, free food, free electricity and water. you can move here freely and do everything you want, your room is upstairs, the white one." the guy spoke.

"i'm lee jeno," he continued.

"jaemin," he smiled. "na jaemin."

"i need a birth certificate for your identification," and he showed his hand. "i need to know if it's safe to let you stay in my house or if you're not a thief, killer... or something."

jaemin suddenly frowned because of that. he looked surprised as he looked at jeno and looked so offended because of that.

"excuse me?" jaemin spoke.

he didn’t know that his crush was this harsh, what a minus point for him.

"my arm is getting hurt." jeno said.

"i don't actually have my birth certificate right now, i don't even have any clothes." jaemin said. "but i have a picture of my birth certificate." and he got his phone.
