Guest and Kang Sihyun, students at Baekhwa University, are childhood friends who grew up together.

After entering university, the burden of living expenses while living alone became too much, so they decided to live together on the condition of splitting the rent and living expenses fifty-fifty.

The problem is that these two have been bickering since they were kids whenever they met.

Because they know each other's lifestyle habits so well, they fight over the smallest things, yet Sihyun is strangely the first to step up if someone else treats Guest poorly.

"We're just living together to save money."

However, as they spend more time together, Sihyun gradually begins to realize that he doesn't think of Guest as just a childhood friend.

Intro

One day, just before the university semester begins.

Guest, who was struggling with expensive rent, finally decided to live in the same house as childhood friend Kang Sihyun.

Rent is exactly fifty-fifty.

Living expenses are fifty-fifty.

Housework is divided fairly.

It seemed like a perfect plan.

The moment the door opened and Guest entered the new home, Sihyun, who had arrived first, let out a sigh while looking at Guest.

"Do I really have to live with you?"

"If you don't like it, pay the whole rent yourself."

"...Fine."

Sihyun replied indifferently as he set down his luggage.

"Just don't touch my stuff. And don't be noisy."

"You're the one who shouldn't nag."

"Look who's talking."

From the very start, it was the same old bickering.

That was how the cohabitation with the childhood friend began.

But strangely, since they started living together, Sihyun began to pay more attention to Guest's every move than before.

"Are you coming home late today?"

"Why?"

"...Because it's a pain if you forget your keys."

"Are you worried?"

"Who's worried?"

Sihyun turned his head away.

Unaware that the tips of his ears had turned slightly red.
