Talking Eyes by Mia Lafreve Pedretti (sci fi books to read .TXT) 📕

She uncovered a little her mouth to speak. And it’s then that I saw them. Two pairs of adorable dimples placed on her cheeks. Ah jungmal Gwi yeo weo! “C-Ca-Can I have..your signature eoni?” She asked, after had stuttered several times.

“What's your name?” I asked patiently without pressuring her.

“jeonun Kim Pil Suk Imnida.” She answered with a tiny voice.

“What a beautiful name, it's the same name of the character in Dream High. How cool.” I exclaimed amazed. And I acted relax to make her at ease. And it worked.

“Kamsamida Eoni.” She replied less shy.

“You’re welcome sweetie.” I replied. “Now, give me your block notes so I can sign it.” I said to her.

She nodded. “De.” She gave it to me along with the pen and I signed it, adding lots of hearts all around.

As soon as I finished, I gave it back to her. The little girl read it and her brows raised up to the sky. “It's full of hearts!” She exclaimed.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I couldn't stop myself.” I confessed. “You don't like them?” I asked a little worried.

“Aniyo!” She quickly replied. “I LOVE THEM! KAMSAMIDA YUMI-EONI!” She said, or I’d say screamed.

I sighed in relief. “I’m relieved.” I admitted. “But Pil Suk-ha, can you please..don't scream..” I said the more delicate possible to not hurt her feelings.

She covered up her mouth instantly. “Ah..jae som hamnida Eoni.” She apologized lowering her voice down.

I nodded. “Now, Do you want to take a picture as well?” I asked her.

“Ah De! De! De! Jebal!” She nodded energetically.

“Okay let's do it.” I replied. We shot more than one pictures and I also hugged her. And since I didn't want to forgive her face, I asked her if I could take a picture with my own phone. 

She looked surprised. “With me?” She asked pointing a thumb at herself.

“Yes.” I nodded. “You don't mind, do you?” I asked.

“I don't mind at all.” She accepted. Still in daze. She posed for the picture. We shot it and when she saw the picture, she started to.. cry. For real. Omg what did I do? I panicked.

“W-W-What's happening?” I asked her grabbing her shoulders. “Did I do something wrong? Why are you crying?” I kept asking and brushing away the tears from her face. “Pil Suk-ha?”

She brushed away the tears. “Kuge anira. You didn’t do anything wrong eoni.” She finally answered. “I-I'm just happy.” She explained between sobs. 

“Oh my god.” I sighed in relief. “I was so worried. Please don’t cry!” I said to her stroking her head. “Okay sweetheart?”

“O-o-okay.” She mumbled back.

My manager approached me right then and whispered in my ear: “Yumi-ha we're doing late. Please hurry up.” I nodded.

I hugged Kim Pil Suk for the last time. “I'll never forget you Kim Pil Suk.” I whispered near her ear. Then I let her go, she was still crying again, but as much as earlier. “See ya! Take care!” I said waving my hand at her.

I was already far when she waved her little hand back and shouted. “BYE YUMI EONI!” I smiled thinking that even if she was that short, her loud voice wasn’t a joke.

I signed some other blocknotes, shot pictures and hugged a few more fans, then I followed my manager inside the building. Before entering in it though, I turned my head. I don’t know why, I just felt like someone was staring at me. So I turned around and noticed three pair of fans, hid in the back of the crowd. They were dressed up normally, but the black surgical masks they had on, covered half of their faces. Their bare eyes made me uncomfortable, because they were glaring at me. Their intense hate flustered me, but I reminded what Ji Yong’s manager told me in the car. They're happy when you’re scared of them, so bug them with a bright smile. It's ten times more efective than and insult. So I did like he advised me. I smiled widely at them and even winked. Their surprised expressions were so priceless that I almost laughed at their faces. But I didn't give them further attention and went on my way.

Finally inside the building, I sighed in relief. The silence inside, was really a gift from heaven I ever desired in that moment. A good, sweet silence, with no screams around. “Ah.. That has been, the most surreal moment of my life.” I confessed more to myself than to anyone.

“You’ll get used to it.” My manager replied facing me. And he patted my shoulders.

“I never thought that I would have loved so much this silence either.” I added chuckling and he chuckled too.

“You’ve made it till the end.” He said. “You should be proud of yourself.” He said looking at me.

I nodded. “I am proud.” I replied. Those three individuals couldn’t scare me anymore. “I thought that all those fans were Ji Yong and Choi Seunghyun's fans, but Kim Pil Suk really surprised me.” I change subject, because I didn’t even want to think about them.

“Who is she?” Someone beyond us asked.

It was the charming voice of Ji Yong that asked it. He was standing on the other side of the corridor, with Choi Seunghyun and their manager. He smirked and walked towards us, followed by the others.

“Oppa!” I exclaimed more happier than I could admit. I felt like years has passed since I saw him in the car. And when he finally stood in front of us, he came closer to me and greeted with a low voice. He probably believed that there were hidden cameras around.

“Hey piccola.” He whispered sensually to me. Someone behind him, certainly his manager, coughed warning him with his eyes.

Ji Yong didn't take seriously his warning and he continued. “What I meant was..Hey love.” He said and I couldn't help but giggle. I was half worried too but inside..I had to admit that..I was melting. I had to look away to not droll, But I saw him smirking in the corner of my eyes.

“Ji Yong, jebal!” His manager begged him this time.

“Okay! jeez!” Ji Yong gave up. He talked to me again, acting more normally. “Like I asked ealier, who's this Kim Pil Suk?” He asked.

I tried to act normal too. “A fan of mine.” I said. “She has been the first one to shout out my name. You should've seen her, she’s so adorable.” I bragged a little.

“Ah that's good.” He concorded smiling at me. “How old is she?” He asked interested.

“Well.. I didn’t ask her, but I think that she is 14 or 15 years old.” I said.

“Did she say something about me?” He asked.

“Sorry, but no.” I replied a little taken aback.

He made up a sulked face. He looked so cute. “Don't worry. I'm sure that she knew that you were there too. It's just that she got me first.” I comforted him, patting his, hard yet soft chest. But when I lingered my hand too much on it, someone coughed behind me. I knew for sure that he has been my manager. So I took my naughty hand back.

Luckily I took it off on time, because a woman appeared behind the boys. She had short brown hair, a classic bob. With a bang covering her forehead. She had also a cute yet fashionable pair of black glasses. The giant and squared type. Her face was small, little round shaped, with big brown eyes. She was taller than me, all thanks to her heels. When she saw Ji Yong, she instantly blushed, but she tried to cover up her face. It took her a few seconds to get back to her right senses. “Annyeong Haseyo.” She bowed and greeted us, but mostly Ji Yong.

“Annyeong Haseyo.” We greeted her back bowing too.

“I'm Lee Ga Young, Jeon Hyeong Don and Defcon-sunbae's assistant.” She introduce herself. “I’m here to guide you to the studio in the third basement. The PD is waiting for you, please follow me this way..” She spoke like a pro, even if she secretly kept glacing at Ji Yong.

“De.” We said in sync.

We followed her through the corridors, untill we stopped in front of an elevator. Lee Ga Young-shi pressed the lower bottom and the doors opened. We entered in. She then called for the last floor, the basement. Everyone stayed in silence, included me. It was an annoying silence though. Please someone say something! I mentally begged and right then luckily, my phone rang and broke that annoying silence.

~YOYOYO! IT'S ME YOUR BESTIE!
THE ONE AND ONLY YANG SOO KIII! 
PALLI PICK UP THE PHOOOONE!∼

The short "mixtape" of Yang Soo Ki. I thought it was cute the first time I heard it, but now... When the others heard it, everyone, Lee Ga Young-shi included laughed so much, I swear I saw tears falling out their eyes. I was certainly embarrassed by my idiot bestie's voice, but thanks to her, the mood inside the elevator lightened up. I picked up the phone like the voice ordered, or should I say "rapped", but I couldn't hear what Yang Soo Ki was saying, because they were still laughing.

“Hush.” I begged them to lower their voices “Oppa please! I don't hear anything.” I complained yet smiled too. They stopped laughing, but kept grinning.

“Yumi-ha, how are things going there?” Yang Soo Ki asked again raising her voice.

“Hm..Fine.” I said. “But we didn't reach the studio yet.”

“Then what are you doing? Where are you guys now?” She asked.

“We're in the elevator, with uncle Jeon Hyeong Don and Defon assistant Ga Young-shi. She's guiding us to the basement where they record the show.” I explained.

“Ah.” She just mumbled. "Is Ji Yong in there too?” She asked lowering her voice.

“Yes, but..Eoni..I don’t think this is the right moment for-” I lowered my voice too.

She cut me off. “Hey look that I don’t want to gossip about him.” She explained. “I just want to greet him and Choi Seunghyun.” She said a little annoyed.

“Ah..Ok.” I mumbled embarrassed. “Then I'll put you through him.” I said and I passed him the phone saying “She wants to talk to you.” He grabbed the phone giving me a confused look.

JI YONG

“Oppa?” Yang Suk Ki called out my name to be sure.

“De?” I answered.

“I was wondering.. Would you like to hang out with me and Park Ji Won Saturday night?” She asked. I knew the guy, he was her famous boyfriend.  The question was so random though.“With Yumi obviously.” She added.

Now the thing had sense. But.. “I'd like to come, but..I don't know..” I replied uncertain. It wasn't a great idea to hang out at night, with all those paps spying on my moves every second. And it could have caused troubles to the president, If I especially went with Yumi by my side. People would have think that it was a double date.

She felt my hesitation. “I invited also the other seniors, so people won't think that it's a double date.” She revealed. That was great a great solution she came out with.

“That’s a very good solution you came out with.” I infact told to her. The elevator's bell rang right then and we followed Ga Young-shi out of it. We followed her  through the corridors. “Then I can’t help but accept your invitation. I don't know how to thank you.” I said to Yang Soo Ki.

“Ah don’t even mention it.” She replied. “But can you do me a favor?" She asked. 

“De.”

“I know that you can be trustful, but I also know that boys can’t hold back their sexual impulses when they are surrounded by beautiful women. So when you go overseas, can you please don't cheat on my best friend. Promise me that you
