When the first rays of the sun peek through the blinds of the livingroom window. The rays hit Christo’s sleeping face, causing him to slowly rouse from his uneasy slumber. Yawning, he sits up, back leaning against the arm rest of the couch and rubs the last of sleep from his eyes before he gets up. 

He rummages through his bag, and pulls a clean shirt from the mess of hastily gathered clothes. He doesn’t need his extra sensitive nose to tell him that even this shirt wasn’t exactly fresh but it’s all he has at the moment, so he stuffs the rest of his clothes back into the bag. It’s not like having dirty clothes was a problem, he could simply return home (he’d been staying at a friends for the past few days.) throw a load in the washer, and get out before his father had time to notice his presence and unleash his wrath. As he’s thinking of all the possible ways to break into his own house without getting caught Christo’s phone chimes, and he takes it out of a side pocket of the bag.

Busan has never been more different than she remembered. The trip she had taken alone gifted her with solitude and all the energy that she needed to restore in order to go back to the quite busy city of Incheon. With her luggage all packed, she headed for the train station -- missing her pet cat more than anything. Everything was set to succeed, a smooth, comforting trip back to her tiny apartment which has always been enough for a tall lady like her. 

The train ride didn’t take too long until she was at Incheon, grabbing the luggage as well as her purse as she was more ready to go, her stomach growling and her legs shivering from the cold that had welcomed her home. Taking a few minute walk to the ramen restaurant near the station, she looked into her luggage, only to look at the zipper in terror. A lock -- her lock was nowhere near the looks of what her brown eyes were looking at right at the moment.
