After finding out that they’re all gonna live with each other for a year and a half. Everyone introduced themselves to each other. Yenn thought that things will remain the same, his first time playing RPG made him feel that he was accepted but he didn’t think that it would make lot of changes in his life, living with a lot of people who had the same interests, he wasn’t sure what to do cause he’s a socially awkward person. His friends left him because of the rude attitude he was totally alone but right now, he suddenly had to live with strangers.
“Umm, I’m Yenn, you can call me anything you want” he bow his head as he listened to the other people introducing themselves. Among them there are two Koreans, one Chinese and a Filipino. The rest of them are the same as him living in the United States.
After the introduction, Elena(their guide) guided them to a room with a large TV screen. When they all entered the room, the TV shows a man in a black suit was sitting on a chair, his face wasn’t shown only his body sitting with his legs crossed.
“Is that everyone? I’m sure you all know why you’re here!” a child-like voice speak on the screen which made them shock because the man was a fully grown man but his voice was of a child.
“Haha, look at your faces! This one sitting isn’t me, I’m not that built” he snickered as if he saw them. Everyone look around the room to see if there’s a camera or anything but there’s only that large TV screen. Yenn gazed at the TV screen intently there's one button in the center probably the On/Off switch of the TV? He shift his attention on the TV screen again, listening eagerly to the child like voice.
“Well, I guess you all are confused, but given the chance that you’re all here makes me really glad! Everyone tap your wrist straps!” The man on the screen clapped as if he’s telling how excited he was. They all tap their wrist straps and it all fell to the ground. “Now that junk is gone, let’s start the game!” the child-like voice laughed so hard that everyone was quite terrified.
“Oh? No worries, it’s not like I’m gonna make you hurt each other! It’s not my thing hahahahahaha” the man on the screen tap something on the table and a screen message popped out on the screen.
“Choose a roommate!”
Everyone glanced at each other, sensing the awkwardness and the hesitation to picked a partner.
“Haha! Well of course, you can’t pick your roommate yourself! We’ll draw lots!”
Elena took out a palm sized box then she approached them one by one asking to pick one scroll like paper tied in a ribbon. ‘Cringy’ Yenn thought as he picked a piece and the others did the same, when everyone was finished, the child-like voice speak again. “Now now! Who’s number 2!”
They undo the ribbons on the papers seeing a number inside, then one person raised his hand and stepped forward. “Hmm, okay everyone with the repetition of two!” the child-like voice excitedly called out, then everyone with even number stepped out, as the child-like voice speak again. “Okay 10 and 2, 9 and 7, 6 and 1, 8 and 3 and 5 and 4! You’re all roommates!” his voice like the beat of drums that made everyone line up according to his speed. “Now listen, there are lots of task notes around the house! Once you see any, do it with a partner! Oh by the way, your partner will be the one closest to you! No cheating okay! Once you cheat you will receive a punishment! Hehe, the punishment is with your partner too” the child-like voice laughed out loud that it was hear throughout the empty room then suddenly his tone became lazy “Heh, well that’s all everyone! And of course if you finished all the task notes you can meet me!”
After the last sentence, the TV screen blanked out. Everyone was startled as they all looked at each other. Becoming roommates with someone you only met really made everyone embarrassed. Liyanna took out her number and asked
“Who’s number 3?” Liyanna asked as they all look at each other crowding in a circle shape. Hailey held out her hand with her number. “Umm, its me! I really don’t know what to do but I’m glad my roommate is a girl too” she awkwardly bow at Liyanna. “Everyone, if you don’t mind can we suggest someone to lead, you know it’s kinda awkward but please” Yenn raised his hand.
“I guess the oldest should lead, don’t you think so too?” Karin followed his suggestion.
Everyone glanced at each other, then Liyanna raised her hand “I’m 24..Who’s 20” she asked.
“We’re 22” Jiwoon and Byul both raised their hands.
“21” Karin, Shang Huanyi and Yulix all said at the same time.
“So the rest are below 20? Okay then Miss Liyanna you’ll be our leader.” Dienn suggested, looking at everyone's eyes. Liyanna awkwardly glanced at them. “O-okay but, I’m not sure of I can lead. I’ll do my best then”
After they all discussed with each other, everyone was called out in the terrace. Elena told them a few things about the house then she took them to look around then the night came and she showed everyone’s room. The house has seven floors, except for the first floor and second floor, there are total of three rooms at each floor of the house, one bathroom and two bed rooms then a balcony and the rest of the whole floor was arranged in a modern style. On the second floor, it was Elena’s and the kitchen. In the third floor, Karin and Stanley's, fourth one was Shang Huanyi and Yulix’ then fifth floor, Dienn and Byul's, sixth floor was Hailey and Lilyanna’s and lastly Jiwoon and Yenn’s room.
Elena told everyone that their clothes will be delivered tomorrow so they could only wear the pajamas that are inside the room. When Yulix and Shang Huanyi saw theirs, they felt embarrassed because they had a couple panda pajamas. Liyanna and Hailey had see through and the rest are normal blue pajamas.
