-"I've left the keys with Nanase, he's there already waiting for you.".
I read the text from my landlord once I got off of the plane.
I was finally in Tokyo. I took a deep breath, taking in the reality that was in front of me and started walking towards the exit with my two suitcases after passing migration.
It was 4 in the morning, there weren't many people at the airport so I could hail a cab easily. After saying the address I looked out of the window and got nearly blinded by all the lights. I huge smile crept on my face, and I let it be.
I got to my new place half an hour later, the driver took out my suitcases and drove away after nodding slightly. The building was just as the picture that the landlord sent me, I walked while pulling the suitcases with me and got to the elevator. I pushed number 3 and suddenly got nervous, what if Nanase didn't know what time was I going to get there? What if I waking him up and he gets mad and starts to hate me since the beginning?
I got out of the elevator and started walking while rolling the suitcases with me, and I realised they were really loud. I was wondering if it would be better if I ran and stop the noise quickly or go really slowly and stop the noise after a few minutes... While I was thinking, one of the doors at almost the very end of the floor opened. I froze. A guy emerged from it and looked at me, I saw his lips moving but I couldn't hear anything.
I didn't know what to do and he just kept staring at me. I need to move otherwise this stare fight would never end. I started moving slowly again and glancing at the numbers at the doors, 32, 33, 34... The guy kept staring. What the fuck.
Suddenly he started walking towards me and took one of the suitcases, carrying it as if it was nothing.
-White?- he asked in a funny accent.
I nodded.
-Nanase?
He nodded.
-Come- he said gesturing me to follow him.
I did.
We entered the small apartment and everything was so neat.
-Put the slippers on- he said in a monotonous voice.
-Uh? Yeah sure.
While I was at it, he took both of the suitcases and carried them somewhere. When I finished I look a bit at the apartment, everything was so white, there was a considerably big hall and then 4 doors were put in front of me, I could tell which one was the kitchen because the door was crystal clear, I spotted a couple of photographs that were hanging off the wall, I was going to see them closely, before walking fast to the room on the left when I hear my surname being called.
-I don't speak English very well- he said looking to the side a bit.
-I don't speak Japanese very well- I said smirking- but we can learn from each other- I said a little bit slow.
He nodded but kept his straight face, he put his hand on his pocket and took out two keys.
-Apartment... Garbage.
-Ok, got it- I said pulling my hand out to grab them.
-This is your room. Mine is the one in front...
-Ok.
-Are you hungry?
-A bit.
-Come.
I put my backpack on the floor of my room and followed Nanase quickly. Damn he was fast.
-Do you like mackerel?- he said entering the kitchen.
