The sun seeped through the gap of the curtains, shining brightly on my face, waking me up. Groaning softly, I slowly sat up from the mattress, stretching my arms.

Grabbing my phone, seeing it was already 10 AM, I got up and start to walk towards the bathroom to get ready.

After changing into a white tank top and grey sweatpants, i took my light brown hoodie and wore it then took my purse, leaving the room.

I start walking towards the elevator pressing the DOWN button, going to the 1st floor.

As the elevator reached the 1st floor and the doors opening, I headed straight towards the exit, not until something - or someone - grabbed my arm, stopping me.

I frowned, turning around seeing a man who was probably a security guard, judging by his uniform.

"Ah, are you the new tenant who moved into 1405?" He spoke. Nodding, I replied to him. "Yes, I am."

"Well, first of all, welcome! I hope you enjoy your new home" He smiled at me.

"Secondly, how did you enter your room? I don't remember giving you your key.." He said, slightly frowning. Shit.

"O-Oh! W-Well uhm, I saw a key which was placed outside that said '1405' so I took it assuming that it was the key to my room." I said nervously, hoping he wouldn't see behind my lie.

To my relief, he nodded, seemingly believing me.

I then realized he was still gripping onto my arm.
Shoving him, not that hard to hurt him but enough to remove his hand from me and distance myself from him.

"I.. I'll be on my way now." I smiled at him, bowing my head and hurriedly leaving.

"Oh, goodbye then! Hope we meet again!" He yelled out to me.

I hope not..

After shopping for food and getting myself distracted by one of those people who are full on gold - distracted meaning trying to converse with them for a whole 10 minutes - and getting stuck in traffic for who knows how long, I finally arrived back at the apartment by 5 PM.

Heading towards the elevator, I entered and as the elevator doors were about to close, a hand stopped it.

The elevator opened up once again to reveal a man who seemed to be in his late 20's. Black haired, glasses, he also had a bible with him.

He bowed his head with smile as he entered the elevator, standing next to me.

"Floor?" I asked him. "15th please." He gave me another smile. I nodded, pressing the button that said '15th' and going back to my place.

The elevator started moving as we were both quiet. Not until he decided to break the silence.

"You seem to be new here. I'm Jae-heon, Jung Jae-heon." He turned his head towards me, introducing himself.

"I'm Shin Da-eun. It's nice to meet you, Jae-heon." I smiled at him, turning away and looking forward once again.

And there it was again. The awkward silence.
