Love dust ...14

"Lazy cat!" Mariana's powerful voice startled her. "Can you hurry up a little?"

"Yeah! I'll be right out!" Liana shouted smiling. "I... I'll be leaving now..." she got back to her whispers "In a couple of minutes you should too... please..." she dodged his eyes and in a glance opened the door to burst outside.

"Ok, I'm done! Shall we?" she smiled brightly again after she put on her high heels.

"Yes..." Mariana answered her smile by grabbing her arm.

Seunghyun glued his back on the cold door and Liana's soft lips warmed back his entire persona, but, as before, he got brutally interrupted. He was about to throw away his phone after he took it out from the back pocket, but a sudden reminder of the way he almost missed the show last night, made him at least to check the caller before smashing it to the walls - it was Jiyong. He took a deep sigh and answered:

"Ne, Jiong-ji?"

"Hyung! Dangsin michyeoss-eo?" Jiyong roared but the voice of his friend and the scene he witnessed last night came fresh to his memory so he changed his tune: "Hyung... are you busy?" he asked softly.

"You don't have to treat me like I’m some kind of a lunatic" Seunghyun tried a smile but even so, one could feel his true posture. "What am I being late for now?"

"Guerilla date..." Ji answered a little concerned.

"Aish... was it today?" Seunghyun rubbed his head.

"Ne... Are you coming?"

"Well... yeah..." he answered as disappointed as he could get.

"You want me to come get you?" Ji asked.

"I'll see you there" Seunghyun declined. He knew if he'll meet Jiyong now, he'll end up telling everything to him, and he didn't wanted just now. He needed to talk it with Liana first even if he had no idea where this will lead to.

"You know where to come?" Ji cut off his thoughts.

"Ani... where?" Seunghyun admitted.

"Just come to their studio. I'm leaving towards there in a couple of minutes. You're sure you don't want me to..."

"I'll be there!" Seunghyun mumbled.

"Hyung!..." Ji shouted before Seunghyun turned off the phone. "If you need to talk..."

"I know. Thanks!" he answered back.

"Oh my God!!!..." Liana's and the 40 kids jaws dropped when they got out of the bus.

The really big building was indeed breath-taking. They all rolled their eyes in awe.

"All right! Now everybody pay attention to me!" the loud voice of teacher Michaela made everyone stare at her. "I need all of you to get a partner and line up here! Come on! Form the pairs!" she kept on shouting as Liana, the big teacher Mariana and another old-ish woman helped them.

In a couple of minutes, the children were split into 4 groups of 10 and teacher Michaela did a last check up on them.

"Good!" she said. "Now i want you to hold hands with who’s beside you and always walk only where the teacher in front of you does. Understood?"

"Yes!!" the kids answered all at once.

"All right then..." she made sure everyone was following her. "Kids, this is the history museum of Seoul" she began her speech leading everybody to the big glass doors.

Teacher Michaela was in the highest position since even Liana and the other teachers were just following her around and did anything that she said.

"Hyung! You're here!" Jiyong shared his brightest smile when his hand almost got Seunghyun's to open the glass door.

"Ne..." Seunghyun smiled back, pulling the handle.

"Yah! TOP-ssi! GD-ssi!" a very well kwon voice greeted them.

They both bowed smiling to the roundish man coming their way with his arms stretching wide.

"I hope you're ready for today!" the man laughed waving a thick fan of small pairs. He grabbed their arms to change the walking direction.

"Where are we going today, Lee-hyung?" Seunghyun asked smiling on his own for the funny name match.

Liana was really hooked on the young guide's words and she was really listening to her with big eyes... either that either she was really struggling to understand what she was talking about.

" Miss Teach`... what's going on over there?" little Luisa caught her arm.

"Mwo?...umm... What?" Liana rolled looking for the indicated spot. “Excuse me…” she came back to the ‘miss guide’ “Do you have any idea what’s going on in there?” she asked grabbing her sleeve.

“I really don’t know” the girl answered, as intrigued.

“ Miss ‘Teach!!! Can we go take a look? Pleeeeeeease??” Luiza chopped back in.

“I really don’t know, shorty… There are way too many people and I…” Liana started saying when all of the 10 voices she was responsible for stated their dissatisfaction.

“Lia!” they could all hear the panting and gasping of over excited Teacher Mariana’s run. “Have you heard?” she finally said stopping in front of them.

“Hear what?” Liana could hardly abstain a laugh.

“They’re shooting some sort of a show over there!” Mariana looked even more delighted than the little ones.

“Really??” Liana shared the excitement. “Can we go take a look?!” she grabbed her hands as in for prayers.

“Well… let them try stopping us!” Mariana filled the entire room with her healthy laughter.

“Oh… but the kids… and the tour… ” Liana started gesturing trying to explain by hand movements what she wasn’t able to express by words.

“I’m sure they want to see it too” Mariana smiled at them.

“Yeaaaaah!!” they all answered at once.

“Well… shall we?...” Liana whispered mostly for her.

Her heart was rather heavy but she thought it was because of the 10 little pairs of eyes staring at her and the fact that large masses of people often scared her, but as always the curiosity got the best of her.

“Ok!” she decided. “Hear me up! If any of you let’s go of the person in front of him, he comes back to the hotel and never gets out. Understood?” she asked one last time after she chained them in a neat, tidy row. “Are you ready?” she asked Mariana after she gave the same instructions to her 10 children.

“Let’s go!” Mariana answered smiling.

Sooner than expected, they reach the huge crowd. Liana’s heart was about to jump and she already started regretting that she did this, especially since Mariana ditched them and got lost somewhere in between the crowd.

“ ‘Teach!” Luiza yelled. “I can’t see anything!!” she whined.

“Ok, kids! Let’s get back! We can’t possibly see anything and…” and her words froze in air when the fidgety Luiza broke the row and burst into the crowd.

“Luiza, don’t!!” she yelled but it was useless, the little one couldn’t hear her as she was running in between people’s legs.

“Yah!!! That little rascal!!” Liana felt like she was ready to explode. “Hold tight one to the other!” she ordered the other kids around and they ran after the little Duracell charger.

“Luiza stop right there!!” she kept on screaming while having to take care of the four children in front and the other five behind her.

“LUIZA!” one last shout in between the countless “GD!”, “OPPA!”, “TOP!” screams, finally made the little girl stop. Of course she didn’t stopped because of her name being shouted, but she reached the edge of the crowd, now holding her little hands on a guardsman blue jacket with a huge smile on her face. This last shout made Seunghyun’s heart to skip a beat. He quickly turned around to look for the familiar name and time stopped when two emeralds hit him straight in the face. Even though he hoped that the big sunglasses would cover him enough, he couldn’t even turn off his stage smile that kept his face frozen.
