"Should we go back to a motel?" asked Beomgyu after they had spent the whole day just walking around the city. In between, they had taken a break at a McDonalds to eat something. After that, they had gone to a restroom at a subway station.

Four days they were now already on the way.

Had slept on stations, in order to save from the little money. And they had gotten a taste of life on the streets.

It was not as easy as they had thought.

And no comparison to the luxury they had lived with before.

It was miserable.

"Yeah, it would be really good if we could take a shower again," Yeonjun, a habitual every-day showerer, said, trying hard not to sound too stricken. He especially was feeling under the weather and didn't know how much longer he could last without a bed. "Somehow, after nights on the bench, I feel like I've gone four days of exercise without a shower."

Beomgyu tried to smile, but it was only the puckering of the corner of his mouth that he managed.

"I'm sorry, old man. I know we don't exactly smell like rose water, maybe that's why it's so hard to find a job." Grumbling, Beomgyu pulled his backpack off his shoulders and wiped his dark hair out of his forehead. "I also didn't expect it to be so hard to get a job when you're not of age yet."

Yeonjun nodded, because he had actually expected to find something quickly. But his motivation was also limited, and since mostly the question, 'Are you mobile?" had fallen, most of it had gone away. "Maybe we should apply to a bar or bistro after all."

"What!? So they can make their money off of girls running into the place in rows just because of you?"

Immediately Beomgyu pushed his lower lip forward and crossed his arms in front of his chest while walking. This thought did not appeal to him at all, although he had to admit that it might give them a chance.

Giggling, Yeonjun leaned toward him, then put an arm around him and kissed his cheek affectionately. "As if. Maybe they'll line up for you and you'll get paid better?"
