Chapter 3:New Home, Unexpected Circumstances (Hyunjin)

Once the assembly is over, Min and I head to the registration center to pick up our dorm assignments. But we get stopped by those guys from this morning.

"Hey, Seungmin! You're in the first year your dorms are going to be on the other side of campus. That's the registration center you need to go to. We were just about to walk Innie over before going our own ways. Let's go together!" A wolf/dad looking guy calls out.

"Oh, hey Chan. I was actually going to go with Hyu-"

"No, it's okay. I know my way. Go have fun. I'll be fine on my own, Minnie. Love ya! See you later!" I yell already running towards the second year dorms.

When I get my room assignment, I take the elevator up to the top floor. Apparently, I'm sharing the penthouse suite with two other people... at least I get my own room, I guess.

I walk in, scanning the area. It has a good-sized kitchen and living room with a patio.

I look in each room, and it seems neither of my dorm mates have arrived or chosen a room.

Their are three rooms, two on the right side of the living room and one on the left with the bathroom beside it. I choose the one on the left and call the movers to bring my stuff up.

Once they put everything in my room, I start unpacking and organizing my room the way I like it.

Once I'm done, I decide I want some ice cream, so I take my phone, keys, and wallet, leaving my room

Once I'm done, I decide I want some ice cream, so I take my phone, keys, and wallet, leaving my room.

As I walked to the door and put my shoes on, two of the boys from earlier walked in while laughing until they saw me.

All three of us look shocked as we all hault in our movements.

"Um... Hyunjin, right? Seungmins friend?" The squirrel looking boy asks hesitantly.

"Mhm," I hum with a slight nod as I finish tying my shoes, not bothering to give them a second glance.

"Where are you going? It's pretty dark outside. Maybe we can stay in and get to know each other?" The squirrel boy asks enthusiastically.

"None of your business. In case Seungmin failed to inform you... I'm not a people person. I don't like people, and I don't trust them. In fact, I despise what society calls humanity. So just stay away from me and my things, and I'll do the same. I don't care what you think of me or what you do in your free time. It's none of my business. Just stay away. Is that clear, Squirrel?" I say, glaring at the boy.

"Y-yes, sorry, Hyung," He says, looking down and stepping back a bit.

"What do you mean you don't trust people?" The demon disguised as an angel asks.

"I already said. It's. None. Of. Your. Business," I say sternly before grabbing my bag and walking out of the dorm.

It's only seven, so I walk down to the art cafe and get an Iced Americano and Java ice cream coan, sitting down at a table in the corner by a window with my back against the wall.

As I eat my ice cream and sip my coffee, I  watch the people walking by outside.

As I do so, I feel a presses watching me.

I ignore it and pull out my sketch book and pencils from my bag.

I sketch the scenery outside the window. It looks so pretty and peaceful.

Once the sketch is done, I take out my color pencils and lightly shade in the colors.

The person that was watching me sits down in front of me, but I don't pay them any mind and keep drawing.

"HI, I'm Chan. I'm Seungmins frie-"

"Yeah, yeah, listen here, wolffie. I'm Seungmins friend and your Seungmins friend. But we are not friends. Just like I told the other two. I don't like people, and I don't trust them. Just stay away from me and my business, and I'll do the same," I say unbothered as I pack my stuff.

I go to the counter and order more ice cream and an americano, but to go this time, before leaving to my dorm.

When I arrive, I see the demon in the kitchen cooking and the squirrel in the living room watching TV.

I silenly walk in my room and take a sticky note, writing my name on it before placing it on my ice cream.

I walk in the kicked and place the ice cream in the freezer.

"Woh! Your room is so cool! You did all that in a day?!" The squirrel asks in astonishment.

I turned to my room and noticed I had left the door open. I walk to my room and close myself in without answering his question.

I walk to my closet and lay my clothes out for bed and for tomorrow before grabbing my towel and shower kit, going to the shared bathroom in the living room.

Luckily, this time, I didn't get interrupted by the others.

Once I was done showering, I noticed I left my close in the bedroom, so I just wrapped a towel around my waist and walked out.

The once laughing duo just stared at me in shock with their mouths open and food halfway to their mouths with wide eyes.

"If your mouths stay open longer, a fly will get in," I say, unimpressed with their reaction. It's so basic!

"What happened to you?!" The squirrel exclaims.

I flinch a little from the abrupt and unexpected loud volume before staring at him coldly.

"I told you. I. Don't. Trust. People. Now you know why. If you want details, ask Seungmin he knows everything. At least after you know you'll stay away like I said," and with that, I walk in my room, get dressed, and lay down drifting off to sleep listening to a slow, soft playlist.
