   Today was the day. Today was my first day off since I moved to Incheon. Today I planned to spend my day checking out the beach and the town, familiarizing myself with everything. But first, I had to wake up the train engine in the other room. Now I know Soonyoung isnt really a train engine, but the boy snored like one. I push open the windows in his room, letting the breeze waft in, bringing the scent of salt from the ocean in with it. "Hoshi, Up and moving or you'llbe late for work." I yell at boy sprawled out on his bed, sighing as he doesn't even budge. I nudge him with my slipper a few times. "Come on Soonyoung I'm not your mother wake up!" Finally he starts to move, yawning as he speaks. "You're right, you aren't my mom, she at least knew how to cook." This earned him a kick to the thigh. "Ow! Okay I'm up! Jeez."

He just gives me a sheepish shrug as he pulls his shoes on. "Yeah I know it wont happen again, I just forgot to turn my alarm on last night." He used the same excuse on Friday to. I honestly don't know why he doesn't just go out and buy an actual alarm clock. I follow him out the door, locking it up behind me as he talks to the neighbor. "Hey there Hosh, how's it hangin'?" Our neighbor asks. The kids a few years younger than us, when he turned 18 his parents put him up in his own apartment to get them out of their hair, he wasn't from Korea and his name was honestly hard to pronounce. I remember when we met him he tried to tell us how to say it but we couldn't for the life of us say it. Instead, we call him Bam. "Hey Bam." I wave to him, earning a smile and a wave as Hoshi starts to talk to him. "Hoshi come on, we wont be able to stop to get
