“British Museum is one of the oldest museums in the world. It was founded in 1753, but first opened to the public six years later on January 15, 1759 at Montagu House in Bloomsbury. And again, the British Museum also had a move until in 1997 occupy the current location,” explained Juno.
Liora looked at Juno who was explaining the history of the British Museum. Juno explained everything in detail, even he also always answered all of Liora's questions and explained them clearly. Juno explained it with a sentence that was easy to understand. While circling the vast British Museum, accompanied by explanations from Juno.
“This is a mummy from egypt right?” ask Liora.
Juno nodded. “Yes, here are 140 mummies along with the coffin.”
Liora rounded her eyes in amazement. Then smiling faintly, he continued to step his feet around the museum. This museum is very beautiful, let alone a lot of historical buildings here, a lot of relics from foreign countries here.
“This is from Korea?” guess Liora.
Juno nodded, “Your guess is right Mrs. Parks. The British Museum has a collection of some ancient artifacts from the Chosun dynasty from the 16th and 17th centuries, one of them is a tortoise-shaped royal seal and plated in gold and bronze made in 1547 in honor of Queen Munjeong, the third wife of the eleventh king of the Chosun Dynasty, allegedly stolen during the Korean War.”
“Wow, it's good,” praise Liora.
Juno just laughed softly. They continued their steps to surround the museum. “There are also many artifacts from abroad that make some of the British Museum's collections controversial. There are many organizations that ask the British Museum to return artifacts to their home countries. Examples of disputed collections are Bronze Objects from Benin, Rosetta Stone from Egypt and Elgin Marble from Greece.”
Juno lowered her head, looking at Liora who was looking at him seriously, this girl looked once interested in every explanation from Juno. The response from Liora was very good, she always praised every explanation.
“But, the British Museum refused to return the items on the grounds that each museum had to return the collectibles so there was nothing else to display. The British Museum also argued that the British Museum's 1963 decree validly stated that items that had entered the museum could not be issued. Like that.”
Liora nodded her head understanding, “Ck deserves here a lot of relics from the outside, it does not want to be reversed,” chirped Liora origin using Korean.
“Mrs. Park you do not talk like that, fortunately no one understands your words,” Juno scolded.
Liora chuckled, "I'm just kidding, Juno.”
“Mrs. Park soon the museum will close soon, there is more you want to visit today before the sky turns dark?” ask Juno.
Liora shook her head, “No, you have a recommendation for us to visit today?”
Juno smiled, “Then we have to find food first. Because I'm sure you're hungry, right?”
Liora chuckled softly, then nodded. “After eating, can we go around before returning to the mansion?” ask Liora.
Juno nodded, “Of course. Mrs. Park, if you have a list you want to visit, please send it to me via message. Let me put everything together.”
“But I don't have your number,” reply Liora.
Juno pulled out his phone, "Type your number here, I will miss the call,” Juno said while removing the phone from his jacket.
Liora accepted it, her finger agile to type her number.
“Okay, now we eat at a place I make sure you like.”
Liora nodded.
...****************...
Night Drive in London is really beautiful, especially with the music that brings it to relax and relax. Liora had completely forgotten what made her sick today.
A gust of wind blew his face, Liora closed her eyes to enjoy this, but a shadow where she hoped for a holiday with Zelvin appeared in her mind. 'No way Lio, remember it was just a joke, ' Liora's inner self tried to convince herself not to wish too much to her husband.
If only Liora would prefer to return to Seoul without Zelvin's consent. He made sure, Zelvin would be very angry with him. However, being here also made it a little claustrophobic. Fortunately, there was Juno who became his tour guide, then he slightly forgot all the problems.
Liora will make the best use of the time she has, she should not mess up her days because of Zelvin's words or her high expectations.
“Mrs. Park you want to know something?”
Liora turned her head, she looked at Juno who was driving. “What?”
“I am actually also Korean. But, I live here because I come with my father who works here," Juno said making Liora a little surprised because Juno's face was far from Asian.
"Then your mother?”
“My mother has always refused to stay here, she does not want to leave her homeland. But even so, Dad and I often go home or Mom who is here to visit me and Dad,” Juno replied explaining
Liora nodded slowly, “In korea where do you live?”
“In Busan, Mrs. Park.”
“Means you can speak Korean dong?”
Juno chuckles softly, “Not really, because I grew up in this country. Even so I understand what people say in Korean, it's just that to pronounce hangeul letters is very difficult for me.”
“You should have understood what I said. Oh yeah, I used to live in Busan for maybe almost 3 years, there was the late house of my grandfather" explained Liora.
Juno turned a glance, then looked forward again. “Really?”
Liora nodded.
“What a coincidence, Mrs. Park,” Juno.
Liora chuckled softly, she drank the coffee she bought earlier. “Tomorrow I want to go to Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, Trafalgar Sguare and Harry Potter Studio Tour, how?”
Juno fell silent, a second later he nodded slowly. “Bby. Wherever you want, I'll make it.”
“Liora Keanna Choi.”
“Wow, beautiful name for a sweet person like you,” praise Juno
“Do not overdo it, Juno.”
“Mrs. This park is the first time you mention my name.”
Liora laughs, “True?”
Juno just nodded her head.
...****************...
Liora had just entered the mansion. He stopped his steps immediately when in the main room there were Zelvin, Griffin and Alice who were discussing the project they were going to present tomorrow.
Liora let out her breath, she wanted to step her foot but the sound of Alice greeting her made Liora back on the spot.
“Mrs Liora, good night,” greet Alice.
Liora only smiled faintly, then continued her steps towards her room. Seeing Liora's strange behavior, Alice frowned. Alice was indeed not that close to Liora, but the different behavior of Liora at the moment could Alice feel. Alice also looked at her superior, the man sitting before her suddenly had his face flat. Are they fighting?
Zelvin went back to discussing the material that they will display tomorrow. However, some times Zelvin was found not focused for some reason. The man occasionally cursed because his mind was not fixed on the map in front of him.
“Tomorrow morning, we discuss again. I'm tired, you guys can rest!” break Zelvin.
Alice and Griffin nodded at the same time. “Good, Mr.”
Zelvin stood up, with wide strides he left them and climbed the stairs quickly.
Liora had finished cleaning her body. Now, he's in long sleeping pajamas. Liora was drying her hair, because she could not sleep with wet hair, even though her body felt so tired and wanted to sleep immediately.
Recollect. Traveling with Juno was not boring, because the man was so cool that he always gave a joke that managed to make Liora laugh. Juno is not like a tour guide but like a friend. And one more fact, their same sense of humor keeps them connected. For tomorrow, Liora had already asked Juno to pick her up very early in the morning because she wanted to take a walk like this. It seemed, Liora could enjoy her vacation even though everything was far from her expectations. Its alright.
Liora gasped in shock as the bedroom door opened with a loud voice. Zelvin went into the room, he closed the door quietly because he realized Liora was shocked because of her actions.
There was no conversation between them, because Zelvin went straight into the bathroom and heard the sound of water gurgling. Liora walked towards the bed, she broke down her body. Just wanting to close his eyes, the sound of the bathroom door made him reopen his eyes.
“Keanna,” call Zelvin.
Zelvin approached Liora, he sat down next to Liora. The water on his body splashed and hit Liora's face trying to sleep.
Liora clucked her tongue, she woke up from her sleep. “Kak Zelvin, can you not bother me? I'm going to sleep, I'm tired!” liora was upset.
Zelvin nodded slowly, “I am hungry, from morning until now have not eaten. Please make food for me,” pinta Zelvin gently.
“This is a lot of waiters, you can tell them. I'm so tired today, don't bother me!” reject Liora.
Liora wanted to put her body back to sleep, but Zelvin pulled her into his arms. “Do not get angry, Keanna.”
Liora let go of Zelvin's embrace, she slightly moved away from Zelvin. “You're wet. If you are hungry, tell your waiter to make you some food. I want to sleep,” said Liora back to sleep.
Zelvin's breath is irregular. His emotions suddenly rose, seeing Liora who refused to get close to him made Zelvin very upset. Zelvin walked straight into the closet, he was wearing a t-shirt.
Without drying his hair first, Zelvin went straight into the blanket and hugged Liora's body from behind. She hoped, her emotions began to subside by hugging Liora. “I want to be angry, but you do deserve to be angry with me, Keanna," murmured Zelvin.
...****************...
Early in the morning, Zelvin had already asked Alice and Griffin to discuss about their project. Because yesterday was not focused, so today they have to work extra.
“After the meeting later, do not forget to make a copy of his data. I'm waiting for an email from you, Alice!” zelvin's orders.
Alice, who was still sleepy, opened her eyes immediately. He just nodded. “Good, Mr.”
The sound of footsteps distracted their attention. All pairs of eyes, now looking at Liora who was descending the stairs slowly. Zelvin frowned, he saw Liora's extremely neat and pretty appearance, plus her beautifully-done hair.
Liora moved her legs in a bit of a hurry. Zelvin thought the girl would approach him but his mind was wrong. Liora walked past him without even glancing at him.
“Damn it!” Zelvin.
...****************...
“Your appearance is very bright, match with today's weather, Mrs. Park,” praise Juno
Liora smiled thinly, “Thank you, Juno. Bye the way, why are you wearing all black?” ask Liora.
Before replying, Juno smiled first. “I feel good looking if I wear black clothes," Juno raised next to her eyebrows.
Liora laughed, “You were too confident once.”
Juno's smile instantly faded, she stared at Liora flatly. “Mrs. Park, you are so cruel.”
As per Liora's request last night, they will visit the places that Liora wants. Juno continued to see Liora not stopping to laugh with all her jokes making her heart instantly warm up.
