ALDEBY
|10.| Trauma Baby

"Hi, Manda."

A full oblique smile would be laden defiantly from the girl before him making Beby fixated on the item for a moment. Beby did not expect, he would be reunited with this woman again.

"Fara?"

Fara's face brought back the dark memory that Beby had painstakingly buried deeply. It took a long time and process so that Beby could resume his life again. But, he did not think at all that just by looking at Fara's face, all the memories came back.

The storm must have passed, but there is much to be addressed due to the storm. Moreover, the time and process that must be passed in fixing everything.

It wasn't easy for Beby to get through the storm in his old life.

"Long time no see."

"What are you doing here?" asked Beby cynically.

Fara squinted both eyes. "Aren't I, what should it be? Why are you here? I thought you were running to the end of the world." Fara took a step forward, making the remaining distance between herself and Beby stay an inch. Both of Fara's eyeballs stared straight into Beby's eyes. "Looks, you're fine."

Reluctantly provoked by emotion, Beby sighed for a moment. Both corners of his lips swooped upwards, forming a smile of millions of meanings. In the next instant, Beby again put on a flat expression as he said, "It's none of your business."

Instead of wasting energy, Beby chose to get out of the toilet. However, it seems that Fara does intend to re-introduce Beby's life.

Right in front of the pool, Fara managed to stop Beby's steps.

Beby had no intention of opening his voice. The girl wanted to see what Fara was going to do.

"A long time no see, gini time welcome you to me? Don't you miss me? Same with our High School days." Fara put on a contrived look. "Oh, yeah! Do you want prom-night time? Crazy, yes, if you remember that time. You must be really happy, right?"

Beby's still tight-lipped. It was very desirable that Beby tore Fara's mouth with the fingernails of his fingers lentic.

However, instead of serving Fara's madness, Beby chose to move from the spot. At that moment, Fara again blocked his steps.

"Wait for dong, Amanda."

Really am! Beby hated that call.

"My name is Beby!" 

Fara looked surprised. "Oh, you changed your name? Wh why? What do not-don't ...."

Beby's sense of sight was sharpening. Fara this really ....

"Casual dong, Manda," Fara said with a mocking laugh. "Ups! Sorry. That means, Beby."

Fara's expression suddenly changed. Eyes that stare nyalang, jaws tightly clenched, and hunting breath, show the emotional turmoil in Fara. 

"THE PHOTOGRAPH SHOULD BE MINE!" suddenly shouted Fara.

"Oh, huh? Who are you?"

"Gue?" Fara pointed to herself. "Gue's twin brother Fahri. So, you've taken away my rights!"

Both of Beby's eyes squinted. This time, Beby will not remain silent. The girl hissed loudly. "That's a great pity, you. Intention to be a model, but do not have a growing talent. It's not going to work, deh."

"Lo—!"

No longer wanting to deal with the madman before her, Beby took a sideways step to get past Fara. Just three steps Beby left the place, someone tugged at his wrist from behind, making Beby lose his balance and crash into the pool.

"*****!" 

That one word possessed Beby's eardrum just before his body fused with the pool water.

'Geez!'

Back then, there were only Beby and Fara in the pool area. Obviously, who would be willing to swim in the hot afternoon sun like this?

Beby who was inside the pond with a depth of 3 meters was constantly trying to reach anything on it. However, the harder Beby tried, the more he was pushed into the middle of the pool. Slowly, Beby began to feel a tightness. The supply of air in his chest cavity is also thinning. He wanted to scream, but his voice was still water. 

In the end, Beby could only resign and let his body sink deeper and deeper.

At the edge of the pool, Fara had seen no signs of movement from the water. That means, Beby is out of breath.

The girl smiled cunningly. This time, Fara was very grateful for the circumstances that led her to meet Beby. Moreover, the location of their meeting in the pool area.

Yep. Water has long been the weakness of Beby Skyla Amanda.

Fara is putting emotions in her. It changed the originally satisfied expression into panic. Then, after everything felt perfect, then Fara launched into action.

"HELP!!! HELPGG!!! SOMEONE'S DROWNING!"

***

As a result of the shout, everyone around the originally calm pool area suddenly scattered. They flocked to the source of the sound to see what had happened.

Seeing the incident, Aldef's feelings suddenly riled up. It was like a bad feeling was shackling his heart. Intrigued, Aldef decided to go to TKP.

"Why are you?" aldef asked when he saw Fahri disarming his own clothes. Aldef's eye beads had a moment clash with a girl who stood near Fahri.

"There is drowning" Fahri said with a clear expression of panic.

"Who?"

"Beci."

"Oh, Beb—HAH?! BABY?!" Aldef stared around the pool. "Why isn't anyone doing it?!" 

Aldef rushed to take off his shoes, socks, jacket, and all the accessories attached to his body.

"Eh, what do you want?" ask Fahri.

"Nolongin Beby!" aldef Tukas.

"Let me just."

"Just be sure."

"But—"

"GIRST!"

Aldef pushed Fahri who had originally confronted him. Then, the man in a saffron-colored t-shirt and pants the size of an eighth plunged into the pool. It did not take long, his sense of sight could catch the figure of Beby who was closing his eyes.

While Aldef was busy saving Beby, Fahri was endlessly staring in wonder at his best friend. From the way Aldef saved Beby, Fahri clearly caught a tinge of love in it.

Still under the supervision of many pairs of eyes on the edge of the pool, Aldef managed to bring Beby out of the water.

After positioning Beby on his back, Aldef began to spur his strength to press on Beby's chest, hoping that the girl would open her eyes immediately.

"Any artificial breath," said Fahri, he was anxious with Aldef's efforts that never produce results.

"Gue?" Aldef pointed to himself.

"Who else do you want?"

Hearing Fahri's words, Aldef was silent for a moment. His eyeballs stared fixedly at Beby's pale face. Three seconds later, Aldef launched a stunt he knew the risks were: Beby—'s anger if the girl found out.

Aldef's desperate action was witnessed by several pairs of eyes. In fact, people who initially did not care about the incident in the pool were suddenly interested.

"Uhuk! Uhuk!"

The CPR that Aldef gave to him came to fruition, Beby coughed with water coming out of his mouth. Still half conscious, Aldef helped her sit up.

"Lo's okay?" ask Aldef.

Beby quiet. The shadow of the situation in the water a moment ago successfully made his entire body tremble. 

Exactly like the incident 12 years ago—when Beby was seven years old, the trauma of water returned to the surface. Beby thought, the trauma within him would disappear as time went on. But in fact, he still felt the same fear.

In fact, when it is felt there is no place to pour out the contents of the heart, when the head is almost broken because the soul and body are fighting each other. Only the sighting of water managed to make a Beby Skyla Amanda feel calm. And the stars above him, of course.

Seeing the girl in front of him just silent, Aldef again voiced. "Beby?" 

The owner of the name looked up. Now, Aldef could see clearly full of tremendous fear emanating from Beby's eyeballs.

"Lo's okay?" ask Aldef again.

Instead of answering Aldef's questions with gestures or words, a drop of tear shot from Beby's sense of sight.

Seeing that, Aldef then brought Beby into his arms. "Ssttt .. calm down, yes. There I am here. Lo safe."

"Gue was afraid ...," cried Beby on the sidelines of his sobbing.
