Once I arrived in Seoul I managed to get my own cab and give the driver the address I was going to. He dropped me off on a corner of a cafe and and pointed to the right.

"You go." said the driver . I quickly smiled , bowed and thanked.

Wow I really need to learn Korean ASAP.

I soon began walking , hopeful to find any sign of Nicole .

Where the hell do I go from here.

What does that even say?

Struggling with two suitcases and a backpack , I just starting to walk on a small lively street that was somewhat peacefully. Building after building , I kept walking just before I felt like I was going to collapse before I go any further .

I couldn't understand any of the signs on the buildings , for all I knew I probably passed the apartment.

Things weren't going well.

Ah a cafe, just get some coffee and wifi and find out where you are

I dragged my luggage up two little steps and quietly ( or so I thought) rolled them to the first empty table I saw. The cafe was dim-lighted with thin Christmas lights outlining the Crimson brick walls. The cafe even had a porch in the back, a garden room which was covered in green vines.

This is perfect.

As I got comfortable , I eventually got the courage to order my coffee.

"Hi, uh, can I have a medium ice coffee?" I said, forgetting for a minute that I don't know a word of Korean.

The waitress looked a me blankly.

"Ice Coffee?" I repeated slowly.

"han Iced Americano hasibsio" I heard a sleek voice behind me say .

"You're American right? I can tell" said a pale boy with a sly smile.

"Can you really tell? It's my first day." I said shyly.

"Well then, Welcome to Seoul! This one is on me." He said chuckling as he handed the waitress cash.

Um what is happening right now ?

Awkwardly standing there in shock, I put my wallet away he turned around and gave me a huge smile.

"My name is Jung Hoseok, but my friends call me J-Hope." He said as he handed me my coffee.
