He Ping (Blurb for Contest)

"People do better living together...and rent for one is expensive." 1

That's the philosophy of the smattering of young adults that went in on the mess of a duplex. What they never guessed is that, more than finding themselves with others, they aren't alone - whether they like it or not.

    I didn't fully understand this but I don't know what ping means either and what exactly it has to do with the meaning...but it does sound unique to say the least.
    Best of luck in the contest.

      Thanks! "He ping" is, unless my friends and online dictionaries were wrong (please tell me if they were wrong) either the Chinese or Japanese word for hope. It makes sense within the context of the story.

    Advantage--a very compelling introduction. Disadvantage--it offers no clue as to what sort of story this actually is.
