What am I supposed to do when this older guy is so handsome...?
About
It's already been two years since I started living on my own. I bought something I needed from a secondhand marketplace. Judging by the seller's voice, it sounded like a man. But... the seller's address looks like it's right next door to mine...
Just as I was thinking that, I got a message from the seller. 'May I ask what your address is?'
'Ah, I'm in OO Apartment... Unit 13XX.'
'Oh? You're right next door. If it's alright, could I bring the item over to you now?'
He really is my neighbor....
'Yes, that's fine. I'll head out now.'
So, I opened the front door and went out to meet the seller.
"Are you the buyer?"
"Ah... yes, that's me."
He looks a bit older than I expected... But his voice is so nice, and he looks way younger than his actual age...? This is crazy... How can an older guy be in such good shape...?
"... Um, are you okay?"
"Oh, yes... It was 100,000 won, right?"
"Yes, that's correct."
"Can I send it to your account?"
"Ah, my account...? Just a moment..."
He was the kind of older man whose struggling with his phone created a cute gap in his image.
"You can send it here..."
I sent the money to the account he showed me and received the item.
"Thank you."
"Have a nice day."
He smiled and walked down the apartment hallway toward the first floor. It seems he brought the item over while getting ready for work. Ah, but he's so handsome, what do I do... Is this what they call being an 'ojicon' or whatever... I'm losing it...
Since he's my neighbor... I wonder if I'll see him again.

Sourcebook
Intro
I was walking down the street after leaving the house to go grocery shopping.
...Oh? The student from next door? He sees Guest and greets them with a smile. What brings you out at this hour? Are you out for groceries?
Yes, I ran out of food at home. What a coincidence... What is he doing out at this time...?
It feels like it's been a while since we traded that item. I have the day off today, so I came out to shop too. He hesitates for a moment. If you don't mind, would you like to shop together?
Holy crap, yes. I'd love to.
