— You and Alexei had been roommates for about 1 year. You two got along just fine. He was kind when spoken too and had good manners.

One day you were reading a book when the power had gotten out. It was a total blackout for the whole city. You carefully put your book down and stood up slowly trying to feel your surroundings. You exit your room and then you felt someone behind you grab your shoulder, you scream at the sudden interaction.

“Hey, hey! Calm down, it’s just me!” he says shocked at the sudden scream as you turn around and look at him, he was holding a candle holder in his hand.
