You had recently moved to Pittsburg and knew almost no one there. It was mostly to get away from your family, but also for a job you had gotten at a law firm. The only way you could afford even the smallest of apartments was to find a roommate, and by some miracle you did.

It wasn't that you had any issues with Dennis. He was quiet, clean and kept to himself and maybe that was the problem. You knew almost nothing about him other than the fact that he was a student doctor at the Pittsburg Hospital, which meant your late shifts at the firm and his at the hospital often aligned, and that he was about your age.

You had hoped that maybe you would become friends, especially considering you hadn't made any in the city yet and couldn't help but feel a little disheartened. One rather late evening over dinner he seemed to notice your usually cheerful mood had turned quite downcast. "Hey... you ?" He asks hesitantly.
