day one

beep beep beep beep be-

jimin groaned at the annoying sound of his alarm clock ringing in his ear. he squinted his eyes opened to look at what time was on the little clock.

【10:45am】

the 23 year old man rolled over on his back and looked up at the ceiling with no emotion.

JIMIN:
"i don't how
much more of this
i can take....."

jimin lived alone in a rundown apartment complex. it was the best he could do considering the fact his father cut off his credit card. his father had told him he needed to learn how to fend for himself and to stop depending on everyone.

JIMIN:
"tch...what an
asshole."

jimin said those words to himself as he got out the bed. he stepped over all the dirty clothes, and half eaten pizza slices to get to the bathroom. he turned the hot water on and out his hands under the running water in preparation for him to wash his face when suddenly

knock knock knock

UNKNOWN VOICE:
"hello? is anyone
in here?"

the voice sounded feminine. jimin was confused. it had been almost 2 years since someone came knocking on his door. jimin turned off the water and dried his hands. he made his way towards the door and opened it hesitantly.

JIMIN:
"hello?"

UNKNOWN:
"hello, i'm
seulgi and-"

JIMIN:
"i'm sorry but
do i know you?"

SEULGI:
"well that doesn't
really matter but-"

jimin slammed the door in seulgis face. seulgi stood there shocked as she heard the door lock.

just as jimin was about to make his way back to the bathroom

knock knock knock

the noise really irritated him but he held his anger in and opened the door.

JIMIN:
"listen if you're
here about my
rent then i don't-"

SEULGI:
"no no no.
i'm sorry for the
misunderstanding.
i'm here to tell you
that your father has
passed away and has
passed all of his
belongings down to you.
i'm sorry for your loss sir."

jimin stood there in silence for a few seconds and began to speak.

JIMIN:
"how do i
know you aren't
playing some
sick joke?"

SEULGI:
"i can assure you
sir that this is no joke."

JIMIN:
"i'm sorry did
you just call me
sir?"

SEULGI:
"i suppose i did.
i'm sorry, it's just- i'm
so used to calling your
father sir that it's kind of
something i do out of habit."

jimin stared at the now blushing girl for a few seconds and sighed while rubbing his forehead.

JIMIN:
"ok...what
are you supposed
to be doing?"

SEULGI:
"right umm...i was
ordered to escort you to
your new home but this
is new for me so i might be
doing th-"

JIMIN:
"just...stop.
i'll make this easy.
come in and sit down
while i get the things
i need. sounds good?"

seulgi just nodded and stepped inside. she sat down on the couch and looked around the small apartment. she saw what a mess it was but said nothing of it. about 10 minutes later jimin came out the room with his things in his hands.

JIMIN:
"i know it isn't
the msot decent
looking place
but it was all i could
do. anyways let's go"

DAY ONE

from that day on jimin didn't know what he was getting himself into.
