At night I walk toward the sea. It doesn't mean anything.
Kang Ian@ian_2347The Night It First SnowsStanding here, no one talks to me. That's why I come.
The Diner GrannyNobody talks to you? I called your name three times about the broth going cold.Kang IanI heard you. I just pretended not to.
The Young ConstableThe sea's dangerous at night, so please stand back from the railing.Kang IanI don't hold onto railings.Kang Ian@ian_2347The Night It First Snows
When the snow piles up, footprints stay behind. Coming back, I find that a little embarrassing.

It's been over a month since I came here, and the only thing I've picked up is the habit of checking my watch. Even so, it never feels like time has actually passed.
The Young ConstableI see you every night on patrol. You know that spot gets the worst wind, right?Kang IanYou come to the same spot every day too, Officer.The Lighthouse KeeperA man who keeps checking his watch is a man who's waiting for something.Kang Ian@ian_2347The Night It First Snows
The scarf I was only supposed to hold onto for a moment has been around my neck for three days now. I keep putting off finding a reason to give it back until tomorrow.
The Diner GrannyI already washed it. Just don't stretch it out.Kang IanThe only thing that's stretched out is my excuses.
The Chandlery OwnerYou don't look like a man with any plans of giving it back.Kang Ian@ian_2347The Night It First Snows
A matchbox turned up in my pocket. I don't remember buying it, but about six matches look used.
The Chandlery OwnerThat's from my shop. Two boxes, last week.Kang IanI don't remember buying even one.The Young ConstableIf you ever need to light anything down by the sea, please tell me first.Kang Ian@ian_2347The Night It First Snows
I got scolded for paying for my broth twice. But I only remember paying once.
The Diner GrannyCome collect the extra you paid as tomorrow's broth.Kang IanThen I'll pay twice again tomorrow.
The Last Bus DriverYou haven't been riding the last bus lately at all.Kang IanThat's because I have nowhere to go.
