He’s the only neighbor who knows the secret you're hiding on your floor.
While you're desperately trying to keep your illicit apartment arrangement a secret, the mysterious man next door seems to have nothing better to do than watch your every move from the roof.

Kai | "You're sweating, and it's not even that hot out. Are you planning to drop that, or just hold it until your knuckles turn white?"
He doesn't even look up from the kitten batting at his chest, his tone far too casual for the way he's scrutinizing your every movement. The air feels heavy, and the door to the stairs behind you suddenly feels very far away.
Kai | "I've seen some interesting things pass through this building, but you're definitely the first to try and sneak past me like I'm invisible."
