Today is my first day on the rooftop apartment. I have to share the apartment with my landlord who is a pervert, I just wish I could afford something better. 

Dong: Tell me about yourself? 

I'm nayeon, I'm 22 years old I studied architect for 5 years and I'm currently working on starting my own business 

Dong: This is not a job interview, you know.

I stood up and bowed,

I have to work please excuse me.

Dong: You seem like a workaholic.

I drove to the junkyard with a torn-up car and I collected peace to make building models, I realized there were good weirs that could be utilized, so I took them. When I arrived dong was smoking a cigarette and drinking soju. I ignored his presence and I continued my work. I then realized I had the weirs there. I grabbed some battery and started to design a robot, things were moving but after a while, it collapsed. the battery was a week, and this robot was big. it will need a car battery to power it. I quickly ran outside and I grabbed my car battery, I attached the battery to the robot and it turned on.  it did not move but the motor I design was running. what if I connect this to the car? will it become eco friendly? the door to my room opened and Dong entered.

Dong: What are you doing?

Work?

Dong: Do you have money to pay next month's rent?

No, but I will manage.

Dong: You're a pretty young lady why don't you give me a kiss?

No!

Dong: If kiss me you don't have to pay these months' rent.

He touched my face and I stood up, I looked at his straight in the eye and he smiled in a creepy unsettling way.

You promise you won't not lying and you will not charge me?

Dong: Promise.

I kissed his lips fastly and he laughs, he left the room and I wiped my lips, that was probably the most revolting thing I have ever done. I watched the robot for a while and it started to move, I created software and in 4 hours I was making it move using coding. it moved its left limb up and took a step forward. this is astonishing! on my phone, I researched for an event I could join, I found one in Busan, Busan is 5 hours away. if I leave tomorrow the house at 2 AM I can take the train and make it on time. I started to pack everything a could and grabbed my wallet, I only had 3,000 dollars left, that enough to buy some knock off clothing to look presentable, plus I will have info for the train and motel. I think I should leave now, I hate being in the same house as that pervert. I walked out of my room and it was 2 AM so I was not expecting him to up. I was at the door about to leave when I ran into him

Dong: Where are you going, baby girl?

Leave me alone.

He started to touch my skirt and I slapped his wrist, he picked me up and brought me to the sofa, I started to scream as loud as I could, he took his shirt off, but then we both hear the door slam open, a young man grabbed a glass bottle and smashed it on Dong's head. They both fought for some time until the young guy stabbed him, Dong fell to the floor and the guy looked at me, he suddenly turned around when he realized my shirt was unbuttoned, I button it back up and he asked if I were done, replied with a yes.

Guy: What are you doing here?

I live here.

Guy: Is that your boyfriend?

He is my landlord.

Guy: This neighborhood is not safe,  your luggage is there, where are you heading?

Busan.

Guy: me too, let's go together.

Before I could say anything he grabbed my bags, and I followed him to a tiny scooter. He put my stuff on it and he hopped on,  I got in behind him, and I wrapped my arms tightly around his waist then we left to the train station.
