“There’s a room plan.” Sabi sa kanya ni Kim Joonmyeon. Silang dalawa na lang ang natitira sa kusina pagkatapos ng dinner, or at least, pinilit niya yung ibang housemates na umalis muna sa kusina dahil may ‘pag-uusapan’ sila. Something about houserules, which worked dahil umalis agad yung iba sa kusina pagkasabi ni Joonmyeon noon. He introduced himself first, “Kim Joonmyeon. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to greet you earlier. I was—“ Blah blah blah. It was a rather long introduction, feeling ni Luhan ay kinwento na ni Joonmyeon ang buong life story niya sa oras na iyon. Pinalapit siya ni Joonmyeon pagkatapos nito magsalita sa may fridge kung saan may papel na nakadikit with Domo-kun ref magnets on each corner. Ito yung nakasulat:
2nd floor, room 1 – JONGIN, KYUNGIE, SEHUN
2nd floor, room 2 – PCY, BAEK, CHEN
3rd floor, room 3 – MINSEOK, TAO, XING
3rd, floor, room 4 – master KRIS and JOON
“I think Kris already mentioned that we’re all twelve here, right? Minseok, Yixing, Kyungsoo, and Jongdae are on vacation. They won’t be home ‘til around the end of the month so it’s just us here right now.” May nilabas na Sharpie pen si Joonmyeon mula sa kanyang jeans’ pocket.
“The biggest room is Jongin’s room, and it’s the only room with a bunk bed. So you’ll be rooming there.” Sabi nito habang sinusulat ang pangalan ni Luhan beside Sehun sa room plan.
“What?!”
“You don’t like Jongin?” Binalik na niya yung cap nung pen. More like, I don’t like Sehun—kuya Sehun.
“Uh no, I was just shocked that it was the biggest room.” Pag-excuse niya. Nice excuse, Luhan. He can’t complain anyway. It’s rude, he thinks. Naniwala naman si Joonmyeon.
“Now, houserules—“ Joonmyeon clasped his fingers together with a clap na para bang excited siya. After a few seconds, may hinalungkat siya sa mga drawers, “Where did I put that...” Nakatayo lang doon si Luhan ng ilang minuto siya naghalungkat bago siya muling nagsalita, sa boses pa lang alam mong dissappointed ang tono nito, “It’s lost. Oh well, we’ll talk about houserules when I find the book.”
“Okay.”
“I’ll lead you to your room.”
“Uh, no need. I can find my way. Thanks.”
“Just look for me if you have any more questions, or if Sehun causes trouble. I’ll be of help.” Luhan just nodded.
