"Okay. Thanks White", I said with a smile.

"No problem. Just shout okay?", he said as he was already holding the doorknob and his head is stucked out in the door.

I smiled and nod at him as a reply, before he completely shut the door.

I heaved a sigh as I look at my things then to the wholeness of my room. My eyes halted in the window with a seat.

I slowly walked my way towards it and opened the window, as I inhaled the forest scent once again.

I looked up in the sky as I heard flock of birds chirping in unison. Who would have thought that from the vast sea that would always welcome me before would be changed into a forestry like neighborhood.

But whenever what their difference may be, there's that important thing that they both have in common. They are the places which I could call home.

After an hour and a half. I finally finished fixing all of my stuffs in my room.

I roamed my eyes across the room. Thinking that I felt I still have something left to do. What did I forgot?

I was brought back to reality when I suddenly heard my phone rang. Now I remember what I forgot. I forgot to tell mom that I already got here.

I rushed to my bedside table to reply at my mom's message when suddenly my phone turned off.

I stood up to get my gadget pouch, and fished out my charger. But unfortunately, as I walk towards the socket, I found out that my charger's plug is not compatible with it. I tried to look for any adapter in my things but I can't find any single one.

I decided to walk out of my room, and knock at the room across mine.

"White", I said as but he didn't respond.

"White", I repeat but got no response.

"White", still got no response.

Maybe he just fell asleep.

I was about to step back but as I look down, I saw his door is slightly opened, and they were this red lights emitting from the room.

I began to ponder whether I should open it or not. But as I was about to push the door open, I halted.

What am I thinking? I shouldn't impose on White's privacy. I'll just wait and explain it to my mom later when my phone got charged.

I turn around to took a step away from the door when it suddenly swung open and revealed White.

"Gun?"

I turned to faced him and lifted the side of my lips to smile at him, "Hey. I'm sorry I didn't mean to..", i blinked twice as I avoided his gaze, "intrude".

"Well you didn't Gun", he said as he chuckles at me.

"What's the matter? Do you need anything? I told you to just shout, or you should have knocked. Although it's not locked apparently. You should have just come in"

"No. It's your room. So I shouldn't-"

"Jeez. Loosen up a little bit Gun. Don't you worry you didn't commit any crime", he said in between his chuckles and swung the door wider.

"What's the problem?"

"Oh. I just need some adapter. I forgot to bring one. I have to charge", I said as I show to him my charger and phone.

He reached to grab my charger, which I also obliged to give. He checked the plug, before pushing his door comoletely open.

"I guess I have this kind here somewhere. Come in", he said before he turned around and walked inside.
