"Oh, hey! What are you doing here? You're visiting someone?" Luke noticed me and smiled brightly. He looked at me and Jack. I smiled back.
"Nah, I just moved here." I pointed at my room. Luke seemed shocked before he composed himself, "Really! Wow."
"Yeah." I used the key Jack gave me to open the door of room 28. The door was opened and I was shocked because the interior design of the room was...pink.
I didn't know anyone could use pink this much in their entire life.
"Sorry," Jack said, "The person before you really loved pink and since you want to move here as soon as possible I didn't change what's inside."
"That's fine. I like pink. Thanks, bud." I shrugged then turned my head to Luke, "What about you? Visiting anyone? I thought you have a school assignments to do."
"Oh yeah, about that...I forgot I have to borrow some stuffs from my friend so I came here first. Here, meet my friend. His name is Matt." Luke opened the door behind him wider which allowed me see the person standing inside, with his golden hair and blue eyes I'd remember him anywhere...The angel.
Of course the tenants here were mostly supernaturals, so why was I surprise? Why shouldn't I? That guy was the angel who was responsible for bringing souls to death, so the total opposite of me obviously but what was weird was that he was Luke's friend.
That wasn't fair, right? The guy who were responsible for birth was called angel and I just...Death, ugh, look at him and his stupid golden hair.
"Hi, I'm Matt." Matt smiled knowingly. He still introduced himself even though he knew me well. I smiled back, shaking his hand.
"Hi, I'm Em."
If someone saw me secretly wiping my hand after touching him they were lying.
Except they were not, ugh, I hate him.
You must be worrying about me reading this and wondered why I hated so many people, I don't know. If there was a way I could love everyone, not being this grumpy grim reaper using humor as a defense mechanism I would do anything to make it happen. God, I envied human so much.
"I'm just...gonna see what's inside my new place now." I entered the room, waving to Luke and ignored that douchebag, he still thought highly of himself even though he was wearing a pajamas
AT 6PM! Jack came in with me to check that everything inside was in a good condition.
"Thanks, Jack. I appreciate what you did for me."
"It was nothing, just doing my job." Jack gave me a tight lipped smile. He was always bad at dealing with people thanking him.
"By the way, how did that human being friends with the angel?"
"The human went to the same college with Matt, I think. The guy comes here a lot."
"Oh."
"Yeah, you interested?"
"Hmmm, that man was in the deadpool."
Jack shook his head, "Shame. He has a good baking skill."
"Right?! i met him at the café he works at and his baked goods have some kind of divine powers I swear."
"He's a good kid."
I nodded. It was still a bit depressing thinking someone was going to die. I looked around the room. "Thanks again for the room, Jack. It's perfect."
"Like I said, my job." Jack was out of the room even before he could finish his own sentence but it was not like I had anything more to talk with him. I looked around the room again, everything is pink, the couch, wallpaper, even the curtain. I texted Kat with shots of my apartment and the only thing she sent me back was a laughing emoji with tears on their face. Right, I would let her laugh to death I swear (even though she was already dead).

I sat around the room, turning on tv that the old owner left it here but I was so bored to do anything, so I decided to walk around the neighborhood, curious to see the 'new' New York (see what I did there? NEW, because I only visited it when it was just a small, old town, okay?) and the Upperworld in the evening. I didn't think at first glance you would notice the difference between the Upperworld and the Underworld but when you look closely, even the air seems to taste different.
I walked pass the laundromat then I noticed the familiar body moving inside. The man with a short brown hair but this time he was not wearing a black apron. He wore a t-shirt and sweatpants and looked a lot like he needed a sleep.
I opened the glass door and went inside. The people inside were only him and me, the only sound was a sound of washing machine doing its job.
"I didn't know you wear glasses." I said. Luke jumped a little.
"Hey! We meet again." He grinned timidly, pushing up his glasses. "I was planning to stay inside my room, doing my assignments but I forgot to do my laundry and I don't want to wear dirty clothes." He pouted a little like wearing dirty clothes was a deadly sin (it wasn't).
I pursed my lips, nodding to mock him. We talked for a while before I remembered what I had been doing before I saw him here.
"I just walked around to see my new neighborhood."
"How is it?"
"Better than where I come from."
Before Luke could ask me where I came from the dryer behind him beeped loudly. He looked at it then took his laundry out, "Uh, I gotta go. Have many stuffs to do. Talk to you later?"
"Sure." I answered, walking out of the laundromat but Luke shouted my name. I stopped.
"You haven't added me on Facebook yet!"
I rolled my eyes, smiled a little before the glass door was closing and I left the human behind.
