Iris was walking from the library after spending almost 7 hours there, studying for philology. Being so fascinated by other languages, that's what got her on her path as philosophical major. She currently was fluent in English, German, Spanish, but was currently learning basic Japanese and her Korean was a bit messy but she could still get her point across.
As she was making her to her apartment right off campus, she hears a voice mumbling. Curious as she is follows the voice. She then meets a smol boy, looking his teens, sitting in the curb of a convenience store, tapping a pencil on his head and looking a notebook with what looked like Korean on it.
He probably felt her staring and looked up, meet iris' green eyes to the boys' brown ones.
"What're you writing there?" Iris asks.
He stares at her confused, and looks around him to see if she's speaking to someone else.
"Nawa daehwahago issni?" [ Are you talking to me? ] he asks. Iris immediately recognized it as Korean, he's Korean.
She repeats her question for him to understand and he grins and stands up. He's only a few inches shorter, but she finds the height difference between them adorable.
"I'm trying to write a song for my composing class, but I can't think of find any inspiration." He says. She blinks and tries process what he just said. She only understand some of it, but knew what he meant.
"Well, my Korean isn't that good, but I know thing or two about composing lyrics."
"Can you help me?" He burst.
She taps a finger on her chin, "Go to that library down there, go the literature section at 5, if you see me, I'll let you know."
And with that she ran towards her apartment, leaving the unnamed boy behind with a small smile.
