Momo, Sana and Mina strolled through the busy shopping mall in downtown Seoul. They joked and laughed as they checked out different stores.

"We should check out that new boutique

"We should check out that new boutique." Suggested Mina, pointing excitedly towards a stylish shop window. Momo and Sana nods in agreement and follows their friend into the shop. They try out different dresses and compliment each other's looks before purchasing what they wanted and walked out the shop.

After shopping they sat down at a cozy cafè in the mall. Sipping on the drinks they chatted about their new college.

"Momoyah...did your roommate arrive?" Sana asked curiously.

Momo shook her head." No...I asked the resident advisor, she said my roommate will be arriving this week since the classes will start next week." She replied while eating a piece of banana bread they ordered.

"Well let's hope she is nice. My roommate arrived a couple of weeks ago and she is so serious. We never really had any conversation to be honest." Sana commented from her seat.

"Really? What's her name?" Mina asked curiously.

"Jisoo...or Jihyo something. She is never in the room. I see all these charts in the room on her side with workout plans and all. I think she is a fitness freak." Sana exclaimed seriously.

"My roommate is so extra. She keeps flirting with me." Mina gritted her teeth as she spoke.

"Really?" Both Momo and Sana asked shocked.

"Yes. She is actually younger than me and she got these friends, I think they are all crazy. One girl is so awkward, she smiles every time she see me. Another one looks like she got some serious issues." Mina explained sipping her Americano.

"Oh wow! I hope my roommate isn't crazy like that." Momo anxiously replied.

The trio continued chatting for a couple of more hours before leaving the mall.

Jeongyeon pushed open the door to her new dorm room, eagerly. Jihyo stood beside her holding the luggage. However, what she saw inside made her pause. The room was an utter chaos- luggage lay half unpacked on the bed, shopping bags scattered across the floor and snacks boxes piled up in a corner.

"Whoa...what the hell happened here?" Jihyo exclaimed as she stepped inside along with Jeongyeon.

Jeongyeon's face tightened and a frown appeared on her face." I have no idea...it looks like a tornado hit this room."

Jihyo laughed. " Well at least you know which side is yours." She replied and pointed at the bed on the opposite side which was not much disturbed.

Jeongyeon huffed, picking up a shopping bag from the floor. " I can't live like this Ji, you know how much I love a clean place." Jeongyeon whined.

"I know...I know..." Jihyo replied still chuckling at the situation her friend is in now. "Hey maybe your roommate is a busy person." Jihyo reasoned.

Jeongyeon shot Jihyo a look. " Busy or not this is ridiculous."

"Arghhh...." Jeongyeon let out an irritated groan before placing her backpack on the bed opposite and picked up the shopping bags and other luggage on the floor.

Jihyo watched Jeongyeon change to her usual self. She rolled her eyes and chuckled as her friend let out irritated sighs every now and then while picking up her "roommate's" stuff from the floor.

"Jeongyeon-ah I am sure once you talk to your roommate, you guys can work out something." Jihyo suggested trying to lighten Jeongyeon's frustration.

Jeongyeon nodded, though visibly annoyed. "You are right Ji, I need to talk with my roommate."

There was a moment of silence and Jeongyeon went back to cleaning her room. She literally threw every single item which was on her side, towards her roommate's side. Then she neatly placed her luggage near her bed.

"Jagiya...it scares me to watch you clean. Can we get something to eat? I am sure you are hungry." Jihyo once again suggested.

"Okay. Let's go then. I don't want to spoil my first day worrying about things like this." Jeongyeon quickly turned around and walked out the room as if there was some negative energy in the room.

Momo entered her dorm room feeling a mix of relief and exhaustion after a long day of shopping. However, her mood quickly changed when she saw the state of her side of the room. Her belongings were carelessly thrown onto the bed and desk. Momo looked to the other side and squinted her eyes at the new luggage sitting neatly near the opposite bed.

"What in the world...." Momo muttered to herself, already getting frustrated.

Momo sat on her bed, feeling upset about her belongings being moved without her consent.She took out her phone and opened her messenger.

Momoring 🍑 :  "Hey guys, you won't believe what just happened." Then she sent them the photograph of the room.

Shashasha 🌞: ""Oh no, did someone get into your room Momo-yah?" 

Momoring 🍑 : "Looks like my new roommate arrived and this is bad Sana 😭"

Minari 🐧: "Did she do that Momoring 😯? " Mina asked concerend.

Momoring 🍑 :  "Yes and I am so pissed off.😡"

Shashasha 🌞 : "That's not cool. Did you talk to her about it?"

Momoring 🍑 :"Not yet. She's not here at the moment. I just needed to let out my frustration to  someone!"

Minari 🐧: "That's so frustrating. Hopefully, you can sort it out when she comes back."

Momoring 🍑 : "I hope so too and god help me if that girl turns out to be crazy like your roommate Minari."

Shashasha 🌞 : "Momo-yah, let us know how it goes and call us if you need any help kicking her ass.💪" 

 Minari 🐧: "Momoring...fighting."

Momo took a deep breath, trying to calm herself and placed her phone on the desk. She looked around the mess and scratched her neck. "What will I do with all these stuff?" Sighing, Momo started unpacking her things and placed it in the dresser. Once done she waited for the new girl to come back.
