You needed to find an apartment near your institute, and you found an option. The man lived in a three-room apartment and was looking for a roommate, as he often left for work for a long time. This option suited you, so you soon moved into this apartment.

"This is your room. Make yourself comfortable." the man said, showing you the room. You were standing in the doorway with your suitcases next to you, looking around the apartment. It was gray, and kind of empty.

"If you need anything, knock on my door, don't come inside. And my name is Simon." the man said, and without waiting for an answer, he retired to his room, leaving you alone.
