Of course Hyun Ki was excited to be in France for a number of reasons. First he wanted to be there for Eun, he hoped that she found what she was looking for. Really he felt bad not being able to do more than just be there with her. Second was to just explore all the food. Hyun Ki loved food, and pastries. He wanted to be able to find some recipes to take back to his mother and her little shop back in Soul. And last he had wrote to his pen pal Shay that he would be there.
Hyun Ki was not sure how it would be. Letter’s on a page where great but some times not at all the same thing as actually meeting them. Maybe Shay wouldn’t like him, think he was too timid and not what he thought through the letters.
He was excited but also self-conscious about his English. Maybe Hyun should have learned more French. He really only knew hello and ‘do you speak English. Hyun would ask if anyone knew Hongeul but that was a long shot in this country. He walked down the streets looking over all the shop faces. Everything was so much different here from Korea and it was beautiful. He loved his country but France was so much different.
Eventually Hyun had made it to the ice cream shop that was written on his piece of paper. Of course he got turned around a couple of times, stuttered his way through asking for directions but he had found it. Hyun stepped into the little shop and looked around at everything. Every flavor looked amazing. Instead of ordering he figured waiting would be better. Hyun Ki wasn’t confident enough to think he could ask for a cup of water properly.
Instead he claimed a table that seemed out of the way but close enough to the door that when his friend finally arrived Hyun could spot him. As he waited Hyun Ki folded the paper that he had been caring around and shoving it in his pocket.
