The past month had rolled by in a haze of catching up and an incessant stream of mail. Jake was getting used to the daily routine, but his mailbox seemed to have developed an unhealthy obsession with a certain Kim. Day after day, packages meant for Some 'Kim Seokmin' landed at Jake's doorstep. Irritated, he decided enough was enough.
One evening, after yet another misdelivered package, Jake decided to text the mysterious Seokmin. He found his number on the package label and started typing, determined to sort out the mess.
Unknown Number
Your package arrived at the wrong address.
Unknown number
Sir, sorry to reply so late, but why isn't my package here?
I've searched everywhere, but it's not here.
Where did you leave it?
Jake rolled his eyes at his confusion, his fingers tapping out a quick, snappy reply.
At home
There was a pause, and Jake imagined him frantically searching his place.
Unknown number
It's not here.
Sir, you need to take responsibility! I don't want to transfer the payment if the package isn't here, so where's my package?
Jake smirked, enjoying this more than he should.
At home.
Unknown number
I said it's not at my place. I've searched for it.
Who told you it's at your place?
It's at MY place.
Unknown number
Huh?
Your packages keep ending up at mine. I've been dropping them at yours for the past month.
And you thought I was the courier?
Uknown number
It's Not my fault you didn't tell me! Your text literally just said there's a package for me.
You better apologize.
Unknown number
You were the one who started acting all rude first! There's no reason for me to apologise!
Fine, I won't give you the package then.
Unknown number
It's my package??

Unknown number

Unknown number
Do you not want your money back??
I was fine with it at first, but seeing that you LACK MANNERS, I don't care anymore.
Unknown number
Fine, I'll come get it myself. Can I at least have your address?
Find it yourself.
Unknown number
Are you being serious right now??
No, i'm messing with you.
Well you have a horrible excuse of a temper.
That's rich coming from you. Good luck finding my house.
And with that, Jake blocked Kim Seokmin. Feeling a mix of triumph and annoyance, he flopped back onto his bed.
Meanwhile, Yeri stared at her phone in disbelief. What an asshole?? She tossed her phone aside, trying to process the interaction. Her mind buzzed with frustration. Who did they think they were? Acting like some self-important douche! And then, blocking her?
She paced her room, muttering to herself, "I'll find his house. Oh, i'll show his ass." But there was no denying the knot of confusion mixed with a hint of curiosity about this stranger.
Later that night, Jake texted his friends, updating them on the latest turn of events.
Niki stop changing the name
ikeu
Guess what? That Kim Seokmin guy is gonna have a fun time wandering around looking for his stuff. Lol, it's Sunday, he'll have to be outside.
Why hasn't he come out yet??? I want to see that super rude asshole.
Okay BUT WHY IS MY PRETTY GIRL COMING OUT FROM THAT RUDE GUYS HOUSE?!?!? AND WHY IS SHE WALKING TOWARDS MY DOOR!?
Jake's heart skipped a beat as he watched her emerge from the house next door. He quickly realized she wasn't just any girl; she was the quiet girl from the music club room—the one whom he had quite literally fallen head iver heels for.
As Yeri approached his door, Jake's thoughts spun in every direction. He wasn't ready for this confrontation, especially not after his texts. He scrambled off his bed, eyes wide, feeling a mix of panic and anticipation.
Yeri, meanwhile, approached the door with a determined expression. She was ready to confront this rude boy, but the closer she got, the more the frustration melted into a nervous energy. Why did he have to live next door?she thought, biting her lip. she wasn't one off confrontation so she tried to bite down her anxiety
Inside, Jake leaned against the door, hands sweaty. WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO?!
The knock came, soft but firm, and Jake took a deep breath, ready to face the consequences of his own actions. He wasn't going to be a pussy. He was going to man up and open the door.
