Hot Guy Offers To Share A Room

That was the third apartment I visited and continued on to the next apartment. As I had expected, there were no empty rooms.

"There's an empty room for one bedroom."

"Really? Wow...thank goodness!"

"Do you want to rent it for how many months?"

"Umm...can I see the room first?"

"Sure, please!"

The man took me to check the room I was going to rent. Even though at first I was happy because there was an empty room at a cheap price, it seemed like I never really got the luck I hoped for.

"We'll call the crew to fix the toilet." The man said while smiling awkwardly. I quite understand the meaning of that smile.

"How long? How do I urinate in a clogged toilet like that?"

"It will be fixed soon, Miss! For this month, we will discount the rental price to 700 dollars. How about it?"

"H-how about it? I'll check the other rooms first!" I said. The man looked panicked and that made me even more suspicious. I'm sure there are things worse than a clogged toilet.

Cit...cit...cit...

"Aaagh...mice! There are three mice coming out of the kitchen cupboard!" I shouted in panic. Apart from being dirty, this place smells damp. I feel very uncomfortable. Even though I'm not afraid of mice, it would still be bad if they bit my clothes.

"The rent will be reduced to 500 Dollars, Miss!"

"No, I don't want it!" I said as I walked away from this terrible place.

"Miss, how about 400?"

"No...!"

"Miss, 300 Dollars? It's already very cheap, isn't it? You won't find an apartment this cheap anywhere else!" He said as he continued to follow and persuade me.

"I said, no...!"

"Miss...!"

I was forced to walk quickly while pulling my suitcase which was as tired as my legs.

"Oh my God, why am I so unlucky? Where should I go now?" I thought.

I passed the Eveerden Apartments, in my eyes, the place looked very calm and comfortable. I imagined that I could live in that apartment, every morning I would swim on the first floor, after that I would make toast and go to work in a big company with a high salary.

Every payday, I will give you new clothes, shoes and bags. After that I will eat at a fancy restaurant, go to a salon and spa, send money to my mother and give pocket money to Jimmy, Kelly and my two nephews. After that I will save to buy a car and buy a luxury apartment. I want to live a life like that.

But, as everyone says, someone like me will never be a successful person. I will continue to be a burden on my family. Is it true that it will always be like that? Am I not going to be able to live life like other women?

Without realizing it, I was standing in front of the entrance with all the beautiful thoughts in my head. The man wearing glasses looked at me who came back, he smiled kindly.

"Have you found a good apartment, Miss?"

"Ah... it seems like a lot of people are renting apartments now. So, everywhere is full."

"Is that so? Maybe because many foreign students and workers from abroad are trying their luck in New York,"

"Yeah, maybe so."

"Sorry excuse me?" A tall man standing behind me. Let me guess, it seems like he's also looking for an empty room. But soon he will find out the truth.

"Can I help you, sir?"

"There's an empty one-bedroom apartment?" He asked. I glanced at him for a moment while holding back a smile.

This man was tall, probably around 6 feet 3 inches with a muscular build and muscular arms. "He's really my type." I thought. I couldn't help but smile knowing that his face was very garden-like. His hair is dark brown, with dark brown eyes, his jaw is strong and firm. His facial features were like those of an Austrian or French man, really handsome.

After observing her physical appearance, I continued with her relaxed dressing style. He wore a white short-sleeved t-shirt with blue jeans and black sneakers. The perfume smells good, very fragrant.

"Hehe...is it okay to wash your eyes? When else will I be able to see a man as handsome as this in person? Let's just say this is a bit of luck despite the bad luck I keep facing." I thought.

"Sorry, sir! There are currently no one-bedroom apartments available. There are only three rooms left."

"Is that so? I've been to other apartments, but there aren't any vacancies in this area."

"This lady is also looking for money for a room and she has also looked in other apartments, but none of them are empty,"

"Is that so? Then, thank you very much." He said as he walked away. He took out his phone from his pocket and seemed to be calling someone.

"Even though I just wanted to wash my eyes looking at a handsome man, but he left. Oh well, looks like I just have to go." I said as I walked towards the entrance.

I was completely distraught, sitting for a moment on the entrance steps thinking about my next move. Should I find a hotel and go back to my parents' house tomorrow? Or go back to looking for another apartment which may be further away from this place.

"What happened to the wallet I stole? Do I just return it to the police station and pretend I found it on the side of the road? Or do I keep it? But, I haven't opened the wallet and seen what's inside. I wonder how much money is in it?"

"Hey, excuse me?"

"Y-yes? What's wrong?" I asked, waking up from my thoughts when the man was standing in front of me.

"He's so fucking handsome." I said spontaneously. The man was shocked to hear my tacky words and it made me very embarrassed.

"May I ask you something?"

"Ah...of course! W-what do you want to ask?"

"Have you found an apartment around here?"

"Actually, I found an empty apartment at a cheap price, but-"

"But?"

"But that place is really not suitable for living. There are lots of mice and the toilets are also cramped, you shouldn't go to that place!"

"Is that so? Looks like you've been to a lot of places, huh?"

"Not really, only five places, including this apartment. This apartment is the nicest by far."

"Is that so? Earlier, the man said there was an empty apartment with three bedrooms. If you don't mind, how about we share a room?"

"What? Sharing a room? with you? Are you kidding?
