Room 219 and 220

Meiji

Chapter One: Moving in

Misao growled as she carried her heavy luggage up of her new apartment. It was her stupid, idiotic, grandfather who did this to her! Misao Makimachi did not wanted to move from her wonderful home of Kyoto to a noisy city like Tokyo. In Kyoto was her family, her friends, and her job. Misao's job was a policemen and her boss was her grandfather Okina whom she calls Jiya. She loved Kyoto for that was where she had lived since she was born. This was probably her first move to anyway outside of Kyoto. She blamed it on Okina. It was all great until Wednesday, the worst day of her life. Okina called her into his office and told her that he is transferring her to Tokyo since crime in Tokyo is increasing and they needed more policemen to moderate the areas. Of course Misao argued back but Okina's word on her transfer was final and nothing could be said to change the matter.

She opened the door of her apartment and took out a piece of paper. It was a piece of paper with the apartment's map on it. Misao held tightly onto her luggage while she tried to find her landlord's office.

"Saitoh…Hajime… Where the hell is this guy's office located?!" Misao searched around the halls but couldn't find it. Until when she walked by a door that the door suddenly opened and whacked her in the face quite hard.

"GRRRAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Misao grabbed onto her head and yelp in pain. Out came a man with dark colored hair pulled back with some of his hair laid in front. The man smoked a cigarette and had an empty expression on his face until he started to speak.

"Sorry, I thought I was only hitting a short, small weasel or something." The man replied after he took out his cigarette and blew out some smoke. Misao was pissed off at the man for hitting her with a door but got even madder when he said the word weasel.

"And who the hell do you think you are?! Walking around here and hitting people with doors and calling them a weasel! I've had a bad day and I don't need you to"

"Saitoh Hajime. Owner of the Shinsengumi Apartments. And who are you to wander around my apartment? I never seen you around here before." The man who just announced himself as the owner of the apartments crossed his arms and waited for Misao to answer while smoking his cigarette.

Misao stood with a little queasiness knowing that she had just bad talked with her owner of the only apartment that she could only find in Tokyo. Now's not the time for her to get kicked out of her only place for survival because she cursed at her landlord without knowing who he is first.

"Heheh…Mr. Hajime, sir. I am Misao Makimachi and I'm here to get my room number to move my stuff in. I uh… called you two weeks before to get an apartment room." Misao tried to talk sweetly as possible to amend for her rudeness.

After Misao's words Saitoh took a last puff out of his cigarette then threw it in a trashcan next to him. "So you're that girl on the phone. Yeah, well you're wasting my time right now…" Misao gritted her teeth at that comment but still kept a smile on her face, "but I'll show you where your apartment room is and give you your keys then I'll be off my ways." Saitoh said and quickly walked down the hallway towards the room that Misao would be living in. Misao happily followed after carrying armfuls of boxes of her stuff.

She was very relieved that very soon she will get a bedroom soon. She was really tired from a 4 hour drive from Kyoto to Tokyo along with traffic every time. As soon as she gets the keys to her room, she would just lie on the bare floor without unpacking her stuff and just take a long, long sleep.

Saitoh stopped soon after and stood in front of a white door as long as everything else that was white. White walls, white ceilings, etc. The only thing that wasn't white was the carpet which was dark red. "Room 220 is your apartment." He said as he took out some keys and opened up the door. "There will be no loud music or singing or any ruckus that will disrupt your neighbors or especially me. No dogs, cats, or any pets. If something breaks then fix it yourself."

The demands and rules kept spilling out of Saitoh's mouth but Misao didn't have the energy to argue, maybe tomorrow she'll try to argue or at least compromise with his rules since he's her landlord and he could easily kick her out and she'll have no place to live. Right at the moment, Misao was tired and just wanted to sleep. She looked at her watch. It was already nearly 11:00pm.

"That is all the laws in this apartment. Here's your keys. If you lose them, it's not my fault. Try to find another way in your apartment. Now, it's very late and I would like to get some sleep." He threw the keys to Misao. Luckily, even with her low energy she caught it easily after dropping her boxes to the floor.

"I'll be in living in room 221 if you need me but don't interrupt me over stupid issues like your sink is broken cause I don't care. Good night."

"Good night you grumpy old geezer…" Misao whispered under her breath. She took her keys and put it in the door's lock until she realized something that made her drop her keys. Saitoh's room is room 221. Her room is 220. That meant that she would be living next to her landlord! Why would a landlord even live in their own apartment that they own?! Misao slammed her head against her apartment room door as she groaned with misery and began to yell inside of her head. 'Jiya you old fart…! What have you done to me?! You stupid, ITIOT, DIRTY OLD'

"I TOLD YOU NO NOISES WEASEL KID!" Saitoh's voice yelled at her from inside of his room which, Misao still was in shock, the room next to her apartment. Misao stuck her tongue out at her landlord's door after his holler then she slouched as she walked inside of the place she would be living until she would get enough money to settle someplace else.

Misao took turned on the lights of the room. It was bare as any usual room when someone first moves in. The walls were plain white and so was the ceiling and carpet. On one corner was a yellow stain of some sort of liquid and on another corner, there were more yellow stains but bigger. Misao sighed. It appears that the person who had lived here before he was a total slob.

It was now 11:12pm as Misao looked at her watch. No time to just stand there and stare at empty space. Unpacking was left to do but still, she felt extremely tired and had such a terrible day so Misao decided to carry in the boxes that she had brought with her inside of her apartment and get rest of the others tomorrow.

11:23pm and Misao was now done of moving stupid boxes. It was official, she cannot lift anymore boxes or she will die right on the spot. She turned of the lights and locked the door to her apartment and laid on the ground on her back. She look at the night sky stars from the big window of her apartment and thought about her stupid grumpy landlord who was probably snoring very loudly in his sleep right now. She was surprised that she wasn't hearing any snoring yet since the place where she was living was so bad until…

"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!" A loud extremely snore came from room 221 and guess who it was.

Misao groaned. Just as she was thinking of a bad thing, it happens! What a great place to live! Misao rolled her eyes. As she drifted to sleep. She wondered. If 221 is occupied by Saitoh then what weirdo or lazy bum would be living in the other room next to her which was room 219. 'What if he was a fat, dumb, old man?! Or what if it's an annoying woman who talk non stop. Or maybe it might be a nice young man in his twenties and is hot as Aoshi Shinomori…' Misao gave a small, soft laugh. From the way things have been going, there's probably no way the person in room 219 could be anything like her Aoshi.
