It is late in the evening, but he doesn’t want to go home. Alas, it is the home that makes him tired. Or, could that tiny room be considered his home – in its common and literal sense?
Yes, he lives there – a subdivided unit of an apartment, in which lives another six or seven people. Andrew, James, John, Philip, Thomas, and Simon. Well, it is true that each of them has their own agenda. But, who doesn’t. Matthew has his own considerations all the same. The important thing is all of them are, by and large, nice and decent people.
The problem is Peter.
He does not follow the rules of the game.
Yes, Peter is the main tenant and stays in the largest room. But it doesn't mean that he is entitled to control the electric switch, occupy the washroom for hours, or turn the volume of his television to the maximum in the middle of the night.
"We need to do something." Matthew told the other tenants a year ago.
And that began their nightmare.
