i look at the clock. ten minutes to eight. i have been sitting on the chair for about fifteen minutes debating whether i should wake seokjin up for dinner. every time i vote against it, i am reminded of how well he took care of me when i was sick but every time i muster the courage to wake him images of him pushing me away play through my mind. as the warden unlocks the door i decide to walk out hoping the warden would deal with the situation on her own. i scurry to fetch my plate and sit down in a corner as i eat. in a few minutes seokjin enters the room with his own plate. his eyes are red and puffed and his cheeks are swollen. an emotion of melancholy settled on his face. he takes the first seat the he lays his eyes own and sits down to eat quietly. 

i eat quickly hoping to make a conversation with the warden regarding the rooms. although it would be very difficult to convince the warden and may even cause some trouble it wouldn't be impossible. i have been a nice boy. i have rarely picked up fights or been difficult to handle. i really hope i can manage to convince her. if i am unsuccessful these thirteen days may bring a lot of pain and unpleasant memories. i walk to my room along with warden quietly. i muster the courage to talk, "excuse maam, i was hoping to talk to you about something extremely important", i managed to say. the women nodded and i continued to speak. 

"i was wondering if i could change my room. it is just that my room mate really snores a lot and i have a sleeping problem. i would really be alright by health has deteriorated due to this problem", i speak. it isn't the truth because that wouldn't be convincing but it isn't false either. seokjin does snore while sleeping. only very softly and cutely. "i will consider your case taehyung-ssi. if possible i will move you out as soon as possible", the warden replied with no hesitation. i was surprised. i knew i would be able to convince her but i did not imagine it to be this easy. i guess practicing monologues in the shower really helped. someone cast me in a drama already.

seokjin arrives and heads to the bathroom without sparing a glance. i place my belongings neatly in a small box hopefully waiting for the warden to call me. in about twenty minutes the door is unlocked and the warden is waiting for me to grab my things. i look around at the room where i spent my last eleven months. i graze the bed sheets and walls. an eerie feeling of melancholy settles in. it was just an odd room with plain white walls in a juvenile. why was i so nervous and sad. i grabbed my note book on the side table with a smile. my only friend that is with me till the end. i hoped that seokjin would step out of the bathroom so i could see him properly one last time but the warden was impatiently waiting for me, "hurry up taehyung-ssi", she hissed. i nodded and apologized with a bow as i stepped out of the room.
