The Hand
[Choose Your Adventure] Seoul High: Senior Year (SEMI-HIATUS due to projects)A boy's hand enters through the opening in the bathroom door.
You await your certain death and unspeakable shame.
The terrible hand speaks...
"Haneul~ I'm gonna get some shampoo, okay?" Donghae chirps, trying to be reassuring but not quite helping. "Don't worry, it's just my hand. I know how you're like about showering with other guys and stuff."
The door closes.
O____O
After your shower...
"HEECHUUUULLLL!!" you shout as you dry your hair with your towel.
Heechul is lying down on his bed doing some homework.
"Hm?" he simply responds.
"How did Donghae open the bathroom door while I was inside and I locked it?" you ask, hands on your hips.
"He just uses my ruler to flip the hook lock from outside."
"And how is he even able to get past the lock on the doorknob??"
"Oh, that? It's broken."
"WHAT?! Since when?"
"Since I entered this dorm."
"... And when was that?"
"5 years ago."
...
"And," you start. "No one has fixed it ever?"
"Nope," Heechul replies plainly.
"Why not?"
"They just never bothered."
"Why would anyone leave a bathroom lock broken??"
"Because it doesn't matter anyway."
"Why the f would it not matter???"
"Because we're all boys anyway. Why are you so sensitive about this? God..." Heechul says, frustrated with you. He throws his notebook onto the floor and pulls his blankets over his head. "You made me tired. I want some dumplings," he adds, his voice muffled underneath his pink blanket.
You think you need some fresh air.
GARDEN
You take a brief walk in the garden. The cool night breeze is a relief from the humid noontimes of the incoming Korean summer. You step onto the bridge near the gazebo. You peek over the bridge at the water.
The moon's reflection is blurry on the still waters of the lake. You look down to see your face in the water and are disappointed to see that you can barely make out your own reflection. You sigh and think about your life.

Meh, I'm no Mulan. Hahaha xD What the hell am I doing? This is a waste of 30 minutes.
You get up and stretch your arms and back before walking back to your dorm room. Furthermore, due to traumatic events earlier, you decide that you will shower in the gym from now on.
You suddenly rememeber that you were supposed to order take-out for you and Heechul. You rush back to your room but are stopped by a delivery boy.
"Excuse me, do you know where room 101 is? Residence of Kim Heechul?" he asks, carrying a big metal case leaking with steam.
"Oh, that's my room," you reply. "Just follow me."
Seems like he went and ordered some food already.
