2023-04-07 15:33:18I won’t be able to meet them if only my name is as feminine as other girls.
“Hello?” I greeted hesitantly as I peeked inside the open door of the boarding house.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw two men who were sitting on the couch, there in the living room. One was holding a light brown guitar while the other one was holding an open thick book, which must be hard to finish, especially because the title says it talks about physics.
Anyway, the two guys gazed at me somewhat weirdly, as if I was an odd alien who made their eyes wide open. ‘Or maybe, I dressed a little bit excessively today?’
‘Oh come on. I should distinguish between reality and fantasy.’
I slightly shook my head, then met their gawks again. Then, as I was about to introduce myself, another person stood behind me which distracted my attempted warm greeting.
“So this is the boarding house,” the man behind me murmured. “It’s f*cking big.” Sensing how rude the man’s voice was, I instinctively looked behind to see if his face will live up to his words.
To my surprise, his handsome face did justify his awful manners. The handsome man stared at me for quite a long time, before he suddenly pointed to my face with his forefinger and gasped.
“Oh? You are that girl! The woman I flirted in the bar before!”
‘Excuse me?’ I uttered inwardly in disbelief. ‘Going in the bar isn’t my thing. So how the hell did we f…’
On second thought, I did remember going to the bar for some reason. Also, I recalled meeting a handsome person there.
While I was in deep thought, trying to recollect all of my memories, we all heard a loud shout coming from the second floor of the house.
“Kyle! Kyle! I took your underwear from the laundry by mistake!”
On the second floor, a man with dark blue hair peeked out. The next thing that happened played in slow motion. HE JUST THREW THE BRIEF RIGHT IN OUR DIRECTION!
Sh*t!
Luckily, my reflexive was good, so I dodged the coming man’s fabric. It wasn’t just me who got fortunate for dodging it but also the handsome man from the back. However, the ending wasn’t that great.
“What…” said the other guy who just came perfectly at the same time the underwear were thrown. As a result, his face was smacked by the gray Celine-branded underwear.
All of us watched the man standing in front of the entrance with underwear covering his face. After an ominous silence, he raised his trembling hand and slowly pulled off the fabric.
“What the hell is this?” he asked before his sharp gaze diverted toward us.
During that time, I didn’t realize that what I entered was not just a simple boarding house, but a place for five wolves and a lamb like me.
“Good morning. My name is Ryan Mcguffin. I will be your new board-mate this year.”
After my introduction, I sensed their gazes which were as piercing as swords.
“Woah,” the man who was holding the guitar murmured.
On the other side, the man dropped the book his holding. The guy with blue-haired, there on the second floor, pointed his finger at me and shouted, “Wait a minute! You are the dancing mascot!”
“Oh sh*t,” husky chuckles came from the man, who said we were already at the bar.
And lastly, the unfortunate guy with a brief around his grip glared at me and cursed, F*ck.”
Yes.
Everything started when I agreed to live in the same house with these five billionaires.

My love life so far only contains three things: reading romantic books, watching movies, or writing stories. Whenever I read the scene: “He pinned her against the wall and locked her between his arms”, I felt the butterflies in my stomach, and that would be enough to fill my romance fantasy. Moreover, I could say there’s really nothing special in my life besides being a good student.“Ryan Mcguffin? You are a girl? Oh no, what to do? We put your name on the men’s lists by mistake.”When I heard that report from the university that I am going to attend, I realized that my simple life, peaceful and quiet, will be in a stormy situation.Several sighs slipped from my lips as I walked in the street and thought about this problem. Looking above, I saw the soft gray clouds which did not seem to move at all while they waited for the time, they would release the intense rain.‘Even the weather is going along with my mood.’“How will I tell this to my mom and dad?” I murmured, bowing my head to

Ryan’s POVAs I stood up near the entrance of the boarding house, I recalled the days before coming here:D-5 before the class starts…My morning was great. I slept enough, had a delicious breakfast, and enjoyed watching the clear blue sky. I was in a good mood.Even if I was lucky yesterday to find a good part-time job, I stayed positive and was willing to take another try today.“Woah. “That car looks very expensive,” I gaped while looking at the white car that was parked beside the ‘No Parking’ sign.I could not help but laugh as I shook my head. Then…Bam!“Ahhh!”“Ohhh.”I bumped into someone because I kept on looking at the car. ‘What an idiot~’Even without lifting my head to see the man I bumped into, I dropped my apology in haste.“I am sorry!”Next, set my eyes upward. As if the halo behind him was too blinding, I had to cover my eyes from the sunlight before my sigh adjusted. Then, I saw his face.‘Woah. I bumped into someone who is more worth looking at than the pretty car

Ryan’s POVMy new room is… a princess-like room. It’s big and I also have my own bathroom.“I won’t doubt why the tuition fee is so big,” I whispered while shaking my head.Before I enrolled at Champese University, I was aware of the rules that only students who will agree to stay at the school’s given boarding house will enter the university. For that, I felt guilty for using my parent’s money for my own.‘It seems I need to study harder.’But before worrying about my studies, I had to take note first and foremost about the five men with whom I will live together under the same roof.Knock, knock~Someone is knocking. I could feel my knees slightly tremor as I set my eyes on the door. Staring at it, the images of the five men I met a moment ago flashed back inside my head.First, the man holding the guitar. Second, the man reading a book. Third, the bastard I met in the bar. Fourth, the guy who saved me from the fountain. And last, the jerk who freaked out over a dot of ice cream on

“Hey you,” I rudely called.His rigid eyes turned round for a second then went back to their original shape. Nonetheless, I did not care about his nonchalant reaction, or the coldness his next gaze sent me.I lifted my chin arrogantly then opened my damn mouth.“As far as I can remember, we both paid the same price for this boarding house. And FYI, I didn’t mean to look inside your room. The door was opened, that’s why.”One of his brows went upward, making his eyes look smaller than the other. Then, a mocking sneer slipped onto his lips.“I only agreed to live here under the condition that there will be no woman inside the place,” he said, using his baritone voice that is as deep as the ocean. “Having you around is making me angry. So to help me, can you please just get lost? Next time, don’t ever stop in front of my room. Don’t look at me, don’t talk to me, and don’t even touch my room’s door. You can understand English, right?”He pulled out the smile, followed by slamming the door

However, I am not comfortable hanging out with Chaylen.‘Just how much I tolerated sitting beside him while eating the pasta!

At that moment, Slyvester desired a lifetime of happiness with Ryan and possibly starting a family with her. While it is often said that men shed tears of joy during such occasions, Slyvester was too overjoyed to cry.

Nevertheless, Mr. and Mrs. Mcguffin had forgiven him and moved on from the past. "So, we're a married couple now," Ryan said excitedly. “Hmmm, we are,” Slyvester mumbled.

Sitting in front of the laptop, Ryan read one of the comments from her book."The author narrates well, but the plot is too cliche. Then the event is not realistic either."Ryan felt sad while reading the comments. She took a deep breath and leaned her back against the office chair. She wiped her eyes under her rounded glasses. She looked again at the comments, where only a few had positive feedback."Maybe writing is not my line," said the woman who had just passed the boarding exam.Even though she took an engineering course in college, she didn't want to let go of her dream of becoming a writer and be

Slyvester’s house is big,” Chaylen expressed, surprised at the grandeur house in front of them. “He acts like a beggar in the boarding house; I did not expect that he is actually rich,” he added.Terban looked at the house casually and asked, "So, how do we get in?""We're going to throw you over the gate," Vincent replied.Terban quickly retorted, “We can use the doorbell, you dumbass.”“Why ask if you knew the answer? Idiot,” Vincent said.The two looked at each other, and an invisible lightning spark formed between them."Aren't you tired of fighting?"

Far away, he could already smell the pungent smell of the alcohol. "You're drunk? You came home late at night and drunk?" Yhlei's face was full of disappointment. The first thing that came to his mind was his son's reputation. Slyvester can be the new successor of Ixumi Corporation. But he walked down the road swaying and unstable?

Kyle, Chaylen, and Emily exchanged perplexed glances as they beheld Sylvester, who was standing motionless in front of the cabinet. Their view was obstructed, so they couldn't discern what had seized his attention. Meanwhile, within the cabinet, Terban and Ryan were frozen in silence, incapable of uttering a word, moving a muscle, or even drawing breath. They knew full well that this would only lead to further misunderstandings.And then…“F*ck it!” Sylvester let out a string of expletives before wrenching open the cabinet once more and yanking Ryan's wrist out forcefully.“Ahh!” Ryan winced in agony from the sudden movement, realizing that Sylvester was livid.Terban observed Sylvester's tight grip on Ryan's hand and understood why he was so incensed.

Third Person's POVAfter taking a break to eat and rest, Chaylen suggested playing a game. Initially, Terban and Vincent were hesitant, feeling too old to play games. However, they eventually joined in, becoming quite competitive and not wanting to lose.Chaylen had created a unique game just to spend more time with Ryan - hide and seek.“Hide and seek? Are you sane? We are too old for that,” Terban expressed his disbelief.But Chaylen explained, “Why not? The boarding house was big enough for the game to work well.”Aside from that, Chaylen believed that game would allow him to take Ryan to a quiet spot and talk to her in private. It was a selfish wish from a heartbroken guy who wanted to spend a lovely time with his first love.“Childish game suits you so much, Chaylen,” Vincent complained, but still, he was willing to participate.“There are seven of us,” Emily said, ignoring Vincent and Terban’s complaints. “We should group ourselves into two!
