The room smells faintly like printer ink and mild chaos.
Behind the desk sits a tired administrator.
jeon Jungkook
"There's a mistake in my housing allocation."

"Jeon Jungkook. Medical department."
Typing. Clicking. A pause.

Part 2
6:03 PM – Outside Unit 3B
Jungkook adjusts his grip on his suitcase handle. His bedding is vacuum sealed. His desk lamp is wrapped in bubble wrap. His toiletries are arranged in a labeled pouch.
jeon Jungkook
*He knock once.*
jeon Jungkook
*He knocks again.*
Messy dark hair like he styled it with a mild explosion. Oversized sweater slipping off one shoulder. There’s a streak of blue paint across his cheek. And maybe red on his fingers. Or is that just lighting.
Canvases leaning against walls.
A shoe on the kitchen counter.
Three mugs on the floor.
Music playing softly from somewhere unseen.
Kim Taehyung
*He blinks slowly. *
Kim Taehyung
*His eyes scan Jungkook from head to toe.*
Crisp white shirt. Clean sneakers. Suitcase upright. Expression neutral but tight.
Kim Taehyung
"You must be my wife."
jeon Jungkook
"I am your roommate"
Taehyung leans against the doorframe like this is the most entertaining thing that’s happened all day.
Kim Taehyung
"Same things. we are legally bound by housing contract now. "
jeon Jungkook
"we are not."
Kim Taehyung
"Give it time."
he doesn't said anything first. he observed.
There is Paint on a floor.
Not a lot but enough.
There are brushes socking in what might be yestreday's water.
A half finished portrait sits directly where a normal human being would place a table.
jeon Jungkook
"Is this... permanent?"
Kim Taehyung
"My talent? yes."
Taehyung follow his gaze.
Kim Taehyung
"Oh. Thats. It's creative organization. "
jeon Jungkook
"It's neither creative. not organized."
Taehyung gasps softly like he’s been personally attacked.
Kim Taehyung
"You wound me, Stranger."
jeon Jungkook
"I am nor stranger. I am your assign roommate."
Kim Taehyung
"That's worse."
Part 3
The apartment consists of:
One small living area.
One kitchen that could fit exactly two humans if they breathe carefully.
One bedroom with two beds placed uncomfortably close.
Taehyung gestures dramatically.
Kim Taehyung
"Welcome to our palace."
jeon Jungkook
"This is 320 square feets."
Kim Taehyung
"You measured with your eyes?"
jeon Jungkook
"Approximately "
Kim Taehyung
"You’re going to alphabetize the air molecules, aren’t you?"
jeon Jungkook
"That's not physically possible. "
Kim Taehyung
"But you would if it was. "
Jungkook sets his suitcase down beside the bed closest to the window.
He notices paint stains on the wall near it.
He exhales.
Then quietly pulls out disinfectant wipes.
Taehyung watches in fascination.
Kim Taehyung
"Are you… sanitizing the wall?"
Kim Taehyung
"That paint is part of the atmosphere."
jeon Jungkook
"It's acrylics."
Kim Taehyung
"Your are intense."
jeon Jungkook
"you're irresponsible "
There’s something sharp there. But not cruel.
Just two completely different worlds colliding in 320 square feet.
