The Pool of Tears

Chapter 2 – The Pool of Tears
(Secret Love Affair - Alice in Wonderland Parody) 

It wasn't easy to condense the duet down to be played by one person, especially since the gryphon had been hitting the low notes with its tail. Seon-jae tried it, but fled when he heard guards coming. “I don't see anything,” said the Five of Hearts, running into @diamond888.

“Look again,” ordered @katchie820, “Kang the Lizard is sure he heard someone playing.” Seon-jae ducked into a stall in the men's room. Unfortunately he dropped his phone and was reaching for it under the door when he came face to face with a lizard wearing a bow tie.

“Did you deliver this?” it asked, pointing to its tie.

“No, but I saw a...”

“Did you play the concert grand?” accusingly.

“Ah...”

As Five and Eight came into the room, the lizard pushed Seon-jae back into the stall. The fox followed the guards in, as did a @sogazelle and a @Llamaesque. Five began slamming the stall doors open. The duchess stalked in, yelling, “Why is it so slack like this?”

The fox bowed her head, “it's my fault. The guards thought it was one of the performers.”

The duchess continued her rant until the guards fell back to let the @queennafre walk in. “Let's discuss the problem later,” said the @queennafre, grabbing the duchess by the hair and shoving her head into a toilet. Water spilled into the room, knocking the guards off their feet as the mock @turtle1 and a dodo swept by. Seon-jae thought he saw the March Hair forcing someone's head into another toilet, but he couldn't be sure. He and the lizard tried to sneak out in the confusion, but were pulled into the current.

“It's salt!” Seon-jae sputtered.

“Of course it is,” returned the mock @turtle1, splashing nearby. “This is all the tears you're going to cry in Episode 14!”

“What!?!”

“You know, after the pretending party. @comickiwi arranged it with the White Queen.” 
 
“Wrong book,” muttered Seo-jae as he headed for shore.
