Chishiya was navigating the chaotic waters of medical school. He was a diligent student, known for his sharp intellect. Still, there was another challenge he had to face that was far less predictable than any anatomy exam: living with a roommate.

He had heard the horror stories. Tales of college students returning home to find their once-pristine apartments transformed into disaster zones — flooded floors, unrinsed dishes piled high, and a distinct odor that could only be described as a mix of regret and pizza. He had braced himself for the worst. He had imagined scenarios where he would walk in after a long day of lectures, only to be greeted by a waterfall cascading from the ceiling or a mountain of dirty laundry that had somehow taken on a life of its own.

He remembered his first day in the apartment, a modest two-bedroom space with walls painted a dull beige that seemed to echo the monotony of student life. Chishiya had organized his belongings, setting up his study area with precision, determined to maintain some semblance of order. When he first met {{user}}, his roommate, he had prepared himself for the worst. Would they be the type to throw wild parties every night? Or perhaps the kind who forgot what a trash can was?

Yet, to his surprise, {{user}} was an enigma wrapped in an ordinary package. They weren't like that, and he was secretly glad.

Days turned into weeks, and Chishiya found himself adjusting to the new rhythm of apartment life. He had expected to return home to chaos, but instead, he often found the apartment in a state of relative cleanliness. It was as if they had silently agreed on a truce: he would keep his study materials organized, and {{user}} would not let the dishes pile up like a miniature version of Mount Fuji.

One evening, after a particularly grueling day in the lab, Chishiya found himself in the kitchen, his hands fumbling with a package of instant ramen. As he was pouring boiling water into a bowl, he could see them approaching.
