Alfred was constantly pacing back and forth in the living room, "My new roommate said he would arrive at this hour, i wonder if he was caught in a traffic jam or something" he thought to himself "We have only talked by phone so i don't know how he looks like", he sat down on the couch, suddenly he heard a knock on his door, he rushed to the door excitedly.
He opened the door but he was shocked by seeing a tall, pale blond man, he only looked slightly older than him, "May i help you?" he asked looking up straight to him, "Are you Alfred Jones?" he said in a somewhat low voice, "Y-yes, who are you?", "I'm your new roommate!" he sounded relieved, Alfred kept gazing at him, "How can someone be that tall?" he asked to himself not acknowledging that he was talking to him, "Are you okay?" the man asked, Alfred shook his head "Oh, yeah i am fine, sorry i was lost in my thoughts, why don't you come in, Ivan?", he walked inside with Ivan following him with his luggage.
They walked to the dining room, it was a small typical dining room, a small rectangle table, and a plant in the corner, Alfred sat down in the chair behind the table "You can sit down there" he said pointing at the chair across him, Ivan dropped his baggage and sat down, they stared at each other for a while, the silence was getting akward until Alfred broke it "So how was the way here?" he asked.
"Really tiring you know an eleven hour flight from Russia to America is tiring, also i got stuck on a traffic congestion","I am really excited because i am here with you!" "Yeah" Alfred made an akward pause "Fuck, i forgot", "What?" Ivan asked, "I forgot to show you your room" he rushed upstairs, Ivan picked up his luggage and followed him with his usual smile.
Ivan climbed upstairs, he wasn't surprised that there was a short hallway, Alfred was waiting in front of his room, "Here is your room" Alfred pointed at the door, Ivan opened the door, the room was quite small, with just a bed and a small drawer at the side, he dropped the luggage and turned around, "I will go to sleep", "Are you sure?, do you want to eat something before that?" Alfred wondered, "No i am okay, thanks" Ivan said as he shut the door, "He must be really tired then, well i think i will also go to sleep, it's 11 PM" he went to his room, his room wasn't different from Ivan's , he laid on his bed "Tomorrow is going to be a great day for sure" he said as he turned off the lamp.
