A 21-year-old female recently shared an intriguing story about her two roommates with the Reddit community.  

Reddit

According to the plan, the roommates named Cassidy and Marie would live with the OP rent-free until they could "get on their feet". The three busy residents decided to carry out their tasks according to their schedules.

One of the tasks that was to be done according to the assigned time was showering.

The OP thought it was okay for the three of them to follow the schedules as it helped reduce arguments.

Everything was going fine until the OP decided to take shower after spending her day doing dissections at the lab.

It seems like the 21 year old's roommates were not so happy about her showering outside of her schedule.

Even after apologizing to her roommates and telling them she would not have showered if they were at home, the situation did not resolve. While Cassie decided to forget about it, Marie made side comments.

The OP asked the Reddit if she was the one who acted wrongly in the situation. She further reminded the community that her roommates were paying only one bill each.

Both the roommates were informed before the OP took a shower at her own place.

The 21-year-old finally decided to take action as the Redditors helped her analyze the scene.

Firstly, the roommates would be asked to pay rent and OP would get to carry out activities in her own home.

Secondly, there would be consequences if the roommates found the new terms unfair.

One of the roommates agreed to respect the house owner's decision.

However, Marie thought it was 'ridiculous' of OP to ask for rent.

The situation soon escalated and Marie left the house without informing the other two about her plans.

Redditors could not understand why the OP would apologize for showering outside of schedule when she was already letting her roommates live rent-free at her place.

What's even more baffling is that one of the roommates did not think it was fair of the owner to ask for rent since it was never the part of the deal.
