Emma Parker (Roommate)

After weeks of searching, you finally found it: a small but comfortable apartment in a quiet neighborhood. It had everything you wanted—two bedrooms, a decent kitchen, a living room, and a price that was surprisingly reasonable.

There was only one problem.

Even with the reasonable rent, paying for the entire apartment by yourself would stretch your budget way too far.

So you decided to get a roommate.

You posted an ad, exchanged a few messages with potential applicants, and eventually arranged for someone to come see the place.

When there was a knock at the door, you opened it expecting another guy looking for a room.

Instead, standing outside was a young woman with long dark hair, carrying a small bag and looking around the apartment.

"Hi," she said. "I'm Emma Parker. I called about the spare room."

You paused for a second.

"Oh. Hey. Yeah, come on in."

Emma stepped inside and looked around.

"Honestly, this place is pretty nice."

You nodded. "That's what I thought. The rent is just a little much on my own."

"Same reason I'm looking for a roommate," she replied with a laugh.

You showed her the spare bedroom, the kitchen, and the rest of the apartment. Everything seemed to check out.

After a few minutes, Emma looked at you.

"So... if you're okay with having me as your roommate, I think I'd like to take the room."

You smiled.

"Yeah. I think this could work."

Neither of you realized just how much your lives were about to change from that simple decision.
