The taxi pulled to a stop and a smile pulled at Jinki’s lips. He handed the driver his pay and thanked him for the ride, then stepped out of the car and went to retrieve his bags. The weight of the luggage didn’t bother him as the happiness of arriving at his new home washed over him. He headed into the apartment complex and up to the fourth floor, reading each door’s number until he finally reached the one his phone read. He slid his phone into his pocket and knocked on the door.

A taller man opened the door somewhat cautiously, “Hello? Are you Jinki?”

Jinki nodded, “Minho?”

He opened the door the rest of the way, “Welcome, let me take one of these” Minho smiled and reached for the guitar case.

“Thank you, sorry I’m a little late, traffic was bad” Jinki let Minho lead him further into the apartment.

“That’s how it always is, it’s no problem” Minho closed the door behind them, locking it, and turned to show Jinki to his room, “Mine’s at the end of the hall, but your room is the first door on the right”

“Okay, is there an extra key I could have?” Jinki asked as he started taking his things into his new room.

“Yeah, it’s on the kitchen table, do you need help unpacking?” The two set down the luggage in the semi-vacant room.

“I think I’ll be fine, I don’t have much. I hope we can become great friends!” Jinki smiled and Minho chuckled softly.
