Strangers (Bl)
The rose
I yawned tugging my suitcase the wheel getting stuck on a crack I frowned not having the energy to deal with this or anything at the moment in a fit of anger I pulled really hard making one of the wheels pop off
I rolled my eye's wanting to scream out loud in anger I closed my eyes taking a deep breath counting down from twenty I opened them feeling a lot more calm but still tired I looked up at the sky seeing it was getting dark
I looked back down at the eden residence seeing it was run down and quite dirty I scrunched my face in disgust not knowing if I wanted to see how the inside would look
With a sigh I stood there contemplating if I should go in or just leave but I knew my answer from the start I don't think I'll find a good enough deal like the Eden residence and I was really broke so I had no choice but to go inside
I dragged the suitcase inside the building having a bit of trouble with the other wheel being popped off I looked around seeing it looked even worse than it did from the outside
I looked to my left seeing two small windows well more like doors I don't know but they started opening showing a smiling face I smiled out of politeness
Mrs um
You must be the one who called I'm Mrs um
She said leaving the two doors and coming out of a door standing infront of me
Jungkook
ah yes nice to meet you mrs um I'm Jeon jungkook
She giggled putting her hand around my arm
Mrs um
So polite too it's refreshing"
She smiled handing me a key I took it looking at the number I could barely see the nunber but I think it said 302
She smiled and left I stood there confused she didn't tell me my room number I looked down at the key okay then I guess I'm room 302 I started walking entering a hall and looking at the numbers on the door seeing room 302 I let out a sigh of relief
I leaned my suitcase against the wall no matter how much that disgusted me I grabbed the door knob turning it seeing it was locked I was confused by thought nothing of it since I had the key with me I put it in the key whole it fit perfectly I smiled turning the key
I mumbled the key not wanting to turn I tried several more time's getting annoyed each passing minute I was to engrossed in trying to unlock my door that when I heard a giggle I flinched I looked next to me seeing a smiling guy
He said laughing stuttering his way through his word's I looked at him before taking the key out
Jungkook
Then what room am I?
I asked deciding that he'd know best since I'm assuming he's been living here longer than me
He giggled turning around and stopping at the door next to it I walked closer to the door he was at putting my key in and boom it opened I smiled turning around to say thank you but he wasn't there I shrugged going inside rolling the suitcase inside locking the door
I looked around seeing everything was cramped making me feel slightly suffocated I slightly cough seeing dust almost everywhere I made a mental note to clean the covers and everything in here but for now I lazily slumped on my bed not caring for anything but sleep
I sigh feeling comfortable enough to feel my eye's close in relief and my body relaxing sooner or later I was asleep
I woke up feeling my body slightly stiff I sat up stretching moaning softly hearing my back crack I sighed rubbing the sleep from eye's even if I slept for a long time I'm still sleepy seems to happen almost everytime
I stood up and began unpacking since I forgot to yesterday or more like I was too tired to do anything I crouched down slightly humming to my favorite song I put my clothes up grabbing a towel my tooth brush and a basket of all my shampoo and conditioner before placing them on my desk
I unpacked my laptop and placed it on top of the desk I zipped up the suitcase leaning it against the wall I placed my hands on my hips as I looked around
Jungkook
Okay I think that's all, time to take a shower
I grabbed all my stuff opening the door before closing it deciding not to lock it since I was probably going to lose the key if I brought it with me
I gently closed the door but it still made a pretty loud sound I slightly winced not wanting to wake anyone up I made my way to the bathroom with the help of the signs on the wall
Looking around the bathroom I could tell it was really nasty everything was rotting and if not it was close to rotting thank goodness the stalls weren't that dirty I turned the water on shivering slightly at the cold water hitting my skin but instantly relaxed as it started getting warm
I let the water damp my hair as I grabbed my cotton candy scented shampoo and started squirting some on my hand I put the shampoo down and with my left hand started scrubbing my hair once I was satisfied I did the same with my conditioner
I closed my eye's feeling relaxed at my hands in my hair I opened them to grab my sponge I squirted some vanilla scented body wash and started scrubbing my body after I was finish I stood under the water and sighed as I felt everything wash away my body relaxing
After I was finished I turned the water off and put a towel around my waist I turned around grabbing another towel but this was one was tiny I started drying my hair with it and then my chest once I was dry enough I put my clothes on and went to brush my teeth
I put everything back in the basket and left feeling cleaned and satisfied I went to my room to drop off my thing's I checked the time on my phone grabbing it I shut the door making sure I locked it
And made my way to my work I passed by a room that had the door opened I peaked inside to see a room filled with pictures of girl's in their bras and underwear while some were full on ***** I scrunched up my face in disgust looking at the computer seeing porn, lesbian porn at that I mean whatever floats their boat
But I would appreciate it if they closed the door because that's nasty I shook my head wanting to get rid of the images and just made my way to work this time being stopped by the landlady
Mrs um
Goodmorning jungkook, where are you going so early?
Jungkook
Goodmorning, I'm going to work
I said awkwardly she chuckled giving me a pat on the back
Mrs um
no need to be so awkward with me
I just nodded my head about to leave but a question I had been wondering came back in my mind "
Jungkook
Ah are boy's the only people living here?
Mrs um
Yeah why? (confused)
Jungkook
No reason I was just a bit curious
I truthfully said smiling before bowing and making my way out hearing her bid me a goodbye
I wanted to take a cab but I'm saving up money I wasn't going to be living there for all of my life as I made my way to the company I'm going to start working at I remembered my girlfriend ji-eun I looked down at my phone to see no text messages from her I opened her contact deciding I'd text her
I waited for a text back but I didn't get one I frowned slightly I guess she was busy I put my phone back in my pocket I looked up to see the company my senior made to be honest I don't think I was looking forward to working with him he always made me look bad he never once shut up always trying to make himself look good especially infront of my girlfriend
I grumbled in annoyance opening the door and making my way to the fourth floor upon entering I was met with my boss, shin jae-ho he was loudly talking. with his workers seeming to boost about himself I walked in he stopped talking looking at me with a smile
Shin jae ho
Jungkook how are you? Glad to see you came you know we went to the same school before and he would always be late to class I'm surprised he even made it on time and he was usually so quiet unlike me I was more on the popular side"
He chuckled putting his arm around my shoulders I gritted my teeth trying to count down from twenty
But the more he talked the more I was losing control I ignored him hoping it would work and it did I could feel myself calm down a girl looked at me smiling
???
Aw he looks so adorable
My boss tightened his grip on me I internally rolled my eye's at him
Shin jae ho
Yeah doesn't he? He as a girlfriend though her name is ji-eun doesn't that sound beautiful honestly I'm surprised she chose him
Jungkook
Okay that's enough
I said getting out of his grip he looked surprised before gathering himself again
Shin jae ho
Wow you changed he was never this bold but he did have anger issues
I folded my hands into fists just wanting to shut him up but he was my only source of income so I swallowed my anger and smiled
The girl looked over at me pointing to a desk next to this dude who was glaring at me I looked at him confused wondering what I did to him I shrugged going to sit down jae-ho stopped talking and went to his desk to do work
I sat there bored looking at the wall I sigh wondering what to do I looked around seeing everyone doing work while I boredly looked up swinging around in my chair I stopped and sighed again pouting slightly before I had enough of this I turned my head to see my desk mate working
Jungkook
Is there anything I could do?
I Asked my voice and eye's hopeful he glared. at me before returning his gaze back onto the computer
???
You could make me a coffee
I smiled instantly standing up to make his coffee I was glad to be atleast doing something
Once his coffee was finished I gave it to him
I said handing it to him with a smile he looked at me and then the cup of coffee before grabbing it he looked inside of it suspiciously looking at me
I frowned shaking my head no but now that he mentioned it I should've he didn't even say thank you
He placed it on his desk I sat down from the corner of my eye I could see drinking it I huffed why ask me if I spit in it if he's going to drink it anyway
Sooner or later it was time to go home but before I could jae-ho stopped us all
Shin jae ho
To celebrate me getting a new worker and jong-woo getting a job let's go out to eat
He excitedly said the girl agreed making my desk mate instantly agree to I thought it was weird but I shrugged it off
???
What about you jungkook
I snapped out of my thoughts looking around to see people staring at me I debated and decided against it since I still had to clean my room and covers
Jungkook
"no thank you I still have thing's to do
Shin jae ho
That's okay guess you didn't get everything finished when you moved in (smiled)
???
Please come it'll be super fun and it won't be so lonely with you there
She said clinging around my arm I stood there uncomfortably I softly took her hands off my arm I chuckled nervously
The group clapped excitedly and made their way to a restaurant
We all sat down at a large table talking loudly drinking beer although I wasn't the one drinking it looked like fun I just satisfied myself with eating the bowl full of fries I took a bite of my fry boredly looking out the window seeing many people walk by I made a game to see how many people walked around with white and black it was an equal game since those two colors were so popular and easy to match with
I was brought out of my game when I realized the table was getting quiet I saw them drunkenly lay their heads on the table except for my desk mate who was staring at the girl next to me I watched as he tried talking to her and repeatedly fail I ate my fries amused by the scene
I was getting pretty tired so I decided to leave early they all decided to go home too I made my way back to the residence as I was making my way to my room I bumped into a tenant I had never seen before not to be mean but he looked like your daily pervert
Said bowing slightly he just stood there looking me up and down slightly licking his lips I shivered in disgust he smirked making his way to the room with the open door ah so he lives in room 306 I guess I was right about him being your local pervert
I shivered again going to my room unlocking it I grabbed the covers and the pillow cover leaning them on my arm neatly folded I went into the washroom putting the covers in there and starting the process to clean them
While that was washing I went into the kitchen trying to find a rag to clean the dust off as I was looking for them a smooth voice startled me
???
What are you looking for?
Jungkook
I'm trying to find a rag but I can't seem to find one
???
Ah, you live in room 303 right
Jungkook
What room do you live in?
I asked just for keeping the conversation going so it wouldn't turn awkward
Gi hyeok
I live in room 302 my name is Gi-hyeok
I nod my head huffing in annoyance when I can't find one I stand up and turned around to see him smiling while handing me a rag
Jungkook
Woah where did you find them?
I asked amazed I searched the whole kitchen but couldn't even find it and yet here he was handing me one not even breaking a sweat
Gi hyeok
Mrs um keeps them there
He points to a small pink pox adorned with flowers I smiled giving him a smile of appreciation before taking the rag
Gi hyeok
Ah do you happen to know where the bottle of cleaner is at?
Before I could even blink he hands it to me I smiled knowingly deciding not to ask
And with that I left I cleaned the desk and board above my desk watching as the dust stuck to the rag
Once I finished I smiled satisfied liking the way it looked less dirty I remembered that before I left home that I bought a freshener I put it on the desk and I went to the kitchen putting up the rag and bottle
I hurriedly made my way to the washroom seeing my covers in the dryer machine I confusingly stared at it remembering that I had put it to wash maybe it was Mrs um who put them to dry god I hope so
Either way the dryer machine stopped spinning I opened the lid I grabbed them smelling them to see that they smelled really good
Jungkook
hm, I wonder what Mrs um used to make it smell this good?
On my way back I ran into another tenant he looked like the stuttering tenant except this one was slightly different
The tenant started speaking again
Stood there not knowing what he meant by boss
He looked at me before turning around and leaving
I sigh smelling the covers being oddly relaxed I opened the door neatly putting the cover on my bed and putting the pillow cover on the pillow I grabbed the air freshener and sprayed it all around my room loving how it smelled
I look out the tiny window opening it slightly to let the cold air in I turned off the lights making sure the door was locked and with that I went to sleep dreading tomorrow and work
See you all in next chapter ❤️
Hope you all support me ☺️
