Falling Into Your Trap
The Forced Escape Place

There was a cup of warm water in front of him. Hala realized too late on the sidelines of her vision that was blurred from tears. A hiccup still sounded from his lips, though his ears did not register how pitiful it sounded.

It was a long time when he did not try to calm down. His head was still filled with ugly words, bad memories that made him nauseous and some crazy things where he blamed himself for the chaos that occurred in such a fast period of time.

His hands hugged himself, trying to look smaller in the corner of the citrus-scented soft sofa, scattered throughout the room as if trying to warm his wounded heart. The smell is not too familiar, but it is able to reduce stress levels and a hiccup that gradually turns into a mouthful.

Hala closed her eyes tightly, trying to neutralize her cry that sounded so stupid. Faintly, he could hear the conversations of others that sounded a bit far away.

“Sorry yes, Mas Wildan so have to go home at this hour my voice sounds guilty, but firm at the same time as if he has no other thoughts to change.

“It's okay. This Mas also already informed the house if Mas ratu” There is a rustling sound of shoes being used and doors that open. “Jagain him, yes. Don't you fuck around, deck. Get him too, don't be too forced, okay?”

“Iya, Mas. I know what I have to do. But thank you very much, Mas. Lo is also careful on the road, ya” A gentle reply from a very familiar voice infiltrated her buzzing ears.

“OK, okay. I hope you guys will be all right. Later contact Mas if need other help”

“Still, Mas Wildan”

There was no other sound after that. Looks like the person who was being given a message drove someone else out the door. A few minutes later, Hala heard again the sound of the door closing and footsteps approaching her.

Hala hoped Sinar would ask about whatever happened to her. Hala remembered when she saw her chat-room with her best friend's sister who suddenly appeared after a long time not exchanging news or even just meeting. Because, Hala was sure Sinar avoided her after the stark rejection he gave. It was a long time ago, maybe about a week or two more that was missed.

With his stupid head and brain unable to think much due to the chaos, he subconsciously called the man with a severe hiccup that made Sinar sound very panicked on the other end of the phone.

Even when Sinar picked her up immediately, Hala voluntarily entered and followed the direction of the worried Sinar but also with a very gentle invitation voiced by the man.

Of course, with that he was sure Sinar would ask many things because of his cry and destruction. Everyone will ask as soon as possible in this situation, right?

In fact, the light is silent. Didn't issue a question even until Hala was guided to sit on the sofa that she was sure belonged to the man. Now, the rustling sound of another person sitting down that was somewhat calm rang out in his ears. Hala could also feel the warmth emanating from the huge body of Rays next to her.

Sitting on the same sofa at a distance that feels farther away than it should. Hala felt her heart warm as she felt how the man still respected her and also respected the distance between them even when Hala was in a humiliating bad situation.

“Gue knows you have a lot of questions about me now, Kak” Because Sinar does not open his voice for anything, Hala started with a soft voice.

“Only ask. I'm sure, in my current condition, although I'm embarrassed to look ruined in front of you, I will answer all your questions without exception..” there was an ugly sound from the snot pull after he finished his speech. It was bad enough that his image was now in front of Sinar that he just let his emotions out raw.

There is a deep breath of light. Hala was still unable to stare straight in the man's eyes. All he now did was submerge himself further into the corner of the sofa and stare at the floor with a fine black fur carpet that he was sure felt very gently enveloping the floor.

Surprisingly, even though he had already said that to Sinar to just keep asking about his current situation, the man instead moved to kneel on the hairy carpet. Her knees were open because she was wearing only home-made shorts that Hala was convinced that she had no time to replace after the woman called her first, she said, touch the soft lumps of fur on the carpet and move little by little to get close to it.

“Try this drink first. Your throat must be sore, dek” Rays gently and warmly while carrying a glass of warm water in front of Hala's face. “Try drinking a little so you're hydrated, huh?”

Hala wants to cry again. The sound of light is very soft and soothing. His eyes that had avoided looking at the man, now moved to look at the drinking water thrust in front of him. After that, it shifted again to see correctly the expression of the Rays.

There was a gentle smile that gently invites from the posture given by the man. That time, Hala said. Letting the Light guide the warm water stick to his lips. His eyes were still focused on the light. There was a subtlety that Hala knew was always in every expression of that man. But this time, he could see some differences on the face of Sinar.

The radiance was still the same as the jolly man who approached her with a charming silly demeanor and also a warm smile with two dimples on his face. But after a long time of not seeing each other, the face looked even more gaunt and there were protruding dark circles under his two eyes.

however, the gentleness that the man carried in his every sweet behavior was still there. So also with the addition of sadness and worry and also injuries.

“Smart child.” there is a ruckus coming out of the man's lips. Hala was a little surprised, how she watched the glass that was in the hands of Sinar had drained all its contents.

“Where is she feeling now? Her slashing didn't hurt much, did it?”

Hala coughed. His feelings are stirring again. This time it hurt more than before. Many emotions flow out when Sinar ignores whatever he asked before and prefers to take care of it first. Hala heard how ugly a cry. She also realized what she was doing after her cries broke again.

“H-hala.?”

The rays stammered as Hala barged into her embrace all of a sudden. The man's body stiffened for a moment. His head hurt and his heart was pounding madly. But, with a quick movement later when he managed to master himself, he, her lips lifted into a sad, knotty smile before both of her arms chose to hug back the little woman who was now crying loudly on her chest and sending out many muffled apologies.

“Nothing..just go out, everyone, Hala. Whatever problems that make you as destructive as this now, just get out of everything. I want you to be relieved.” she whispered. Quietly tightened his embrace on the woman he loved so much.

‘Please, don't apologize. I'm sick look lo's this ruined, Hala. I am very sick.’ The Heart of Light pulsed, whispering softly about the situation that was happening at this moment.

Hala sobbed, tightly gripping the back of Sinar as one of the man's hands rubbed his back and another stroked his head to calm him down.

Hala's gone mad. He was sure the demon possessed him when he started muttering strange things. Muttering a lot of things about her pain some time back that made her like a crowded bubble and then burst due to the most painful factor her heart pierced to burst that fragile bubble.

“Sickly. I'm devastated, brother. I know I'm overreacting now. But my heart feels pain. I can not make nahan again.” cercanya with a faltering voice.

“Gue has tried to survive with things I can hold. I should have gotten everything better. I shouldn't be that stupid to destroy the things that are important to me.”

“But I am not strong if it is discussed when I try to forget. I can't help but get crushed when that fucking guy comes and casually spills trash onto me as if it's the most natural thing on the face of this earth” Hala laughed, it almost looks crazy with its hysterical speech.

“Gue tired, Brother. I try not to think about it anymore. I've tried to make sure that.. if.” He was silent for a moment. Tau that he should not indulge the disgrace of his own mother. His head fought with his heart whether he should say this to Sinar or keep it.

However, Hala was already fed up enough with those disgusting things.

“My family is destroyed, Brother.”

Yes, his heart lost. But not completely outdone as he bit his lips hard to say his next sentence. Breathing in, he closed his eyes and leaned further inside the light's embrace to ask for strength.

“Gue has tried to convince myself that my family is all right. If Mama and Papa are all right. But these last few days. They make me sick. Tired of everything. I'm tired of the disgusting things they love to see me.”

“Kak.. I human also have a limit for nahan myself”

Hala opened decided to focus herself on hearing the heartbeat of Sinar and tried to neutralize herself by following the movement of the breath of Sinar unconsciously after his heart felt so sick.

“Last-lately I feel almost crazy.” Hala continued on rather calmly as she felt Sinar's lips brushing her head quietly and innocently. Somewhat unsure as Hala felt that Sinar was pulling away too quickly.

“My work is very much. I am confused some of this time. The target for the marketing team started to rise higher than ever and my team was met with a lot of high demand and expectations from superiors. Not to mention want to enter the end of the year. everything becomes more complicated and I'm dizzy.” Hala started to speak slowly. Tears glide freely one by one wet the shirt that is worn by Rays.

“Not to mention, Pipang sick. I'm worried about my cat, brother. He is now well and active. But it's enough to make me scared to death because he's all I have and he's my favorite kid”

The light listened to Hala's hardness that sounded so sad, she sounded too tired with everything weighing on her heart and mind.

“Keep...my sister has not heard from me for a week.and four days ago I got word she just got out of the hospital due to typhus” This time, I have been, Hala tightly gripped her hand to brace herself from crying a mouthful again.

“And this afternoon, I got some disgusting news from people I didn't want to meet. That's what made me so miserable that I destroyed what was my last life-string.”

Sinar held Hala gently and firmly as the last words fell from the woman's lips. She held Hala closer to herself to provide more warmth and confidence that there was someone supporting her and was by her side at the moment. That Hala is not alone.

“Kak.” Hala looked up to look at the Rays that this time focused on her as a whole. “Actually I feel lonely. Although I have Pipang.. even though I have great friends. and although I have Hexa.” He was silent again this time. His eyes grew further as he spoke.

“Gue still feels no one loves me as much as I want”

“Hala.”

“Lo know not, anyway, Brother? I ruined my own home”

“Means?” Sinar asked with concern. The ridiculous thought was that Hala really destroyed his own home. He grimaced, feeling extremely stupid at this opportunity.

“Gue was confess to Hexa if I love him”

“Ah.”

Heart Rays pulsed, cracking within which Rays could hear the cracks themselves. The man had been trying to move on almost this month, away from the woman to calm down. But still, he could not get rid of the woman who was now in his arms. The one who had also broken his heart. The man who destroyed his dream house with the woman.

“Gue confessed it because I was stressed, Brother, I suddenly want to be loved. I want to be loved back by the people I love. I want to have the full support of one special person for me”

"...In fact, I ruined my relationship with Hexa”

A ray of surprise, looked at Hala in disbelief. His lips were open wanting to say words and questions, but he was convinced that it was inappropriate for him to put it up in his current situation.

But he can't lie. His heart was breaking with hope that he should not develop. In fact, the flower of hope grew and an evil point of pleasure appeared there without being stopped.

“Hex shrugged me, brother. And now he does not want to see me again” Hala's gaze was empty, but he laughed blandly. “Even as he is, he is disgusted by me.”

“Do not assume for yourself, Hala. If you again mess up, the negative things that will nguasain head and heart lo” Sinar describe calmly. Although he knows that there are two sides that are now scrambling to control him.

“But I'm serious, Kak” This time, Hala released his embrace on Sinar. The woman began to retreat and rubbed her already swollen face. He took some distance with the man who had now lost the warmth he felt a moment before.

“He was very disappointed with me. I know what Hexa is about”

“Maybe he was just shocked. Deck. Maybe he needs space to think”

Sinar spoke lightly. He moved quickly when he realized Hala was observing the empty glass on the table. Without saying a word, Sinar moved towards the kitchen to fetch cold water from the refrigerator. He did that in a very short time.

“Neg. I am one hundred percent sure Hexa will not want to win the same me again. She's disgusted, sister, same I”

The woman's eyes looked at the glass that was being filled with cold water by the Light. His hands were then stretched out to accept the glass weakly. The woman seemed to have calmed down and admitted her defeat and exhaustion.

Sipping slowly, Sinar watched the woman affectionately. He hadn't seen Hala in a long time. It had not even been able to channel her crazy feelings to the woman for a long time. Sinar missed Hala very much. And now, he took the time to observe the mentally shattered woman.

Even so, the woman he loved still looked amazing in his eyes.

Although honest, he was also sick when he saw someone as happy as his heart was broken into pieces in front of his eyes, A light of relief that she was the one Hala had chosen to be in the woman's difficult time.

“And this makes me aware.”

The light flinched as Hala reopened her voice. She sounded tired and guilty.

“Gue is also very evil lo, yes, sister.” he hissed, his gaze sad on the glass in his hand.

“Do not think. about me like the same lo it's my problem. Don't think about that part”

Lies. Sinar desperately wants Hala in his life. He languished after the rejection that Hala gave him and even he knew that he was happy with the fact that Hexa rejected Hala's declaration of love.

He is also a bad guy. Bad people because of a feeling that can not just disappear.

“Gue is so sorry, Brother. I already nolak lo. I never even tried to connect you to the news after that time.. and now suddenly I ask you to be on my side when I again destroyed like gini” Hala raised his head to look at Sinar.

“I swear, I'm really embarrassed brother.emang already my loyalty like”

The light could not react, he was just silent. If he opened his voice, the man knew that coming out was the craziest thing he tried to stop as much as possible.

Hala threw herself on the shoulder of the sofa. His head he turned to the ceiling of the room while his feet began to drop to feel the softness of the feather carpet calling. His fingers rubbed his ears after tucking the tattered and tangled hair behind the soft-boned limbs.

“Lo know not, anyway, Brother?” He started again when Sinar shifted to actually face Hala. He did not care when he felt wet on his chest because of Hala's tears that had seeped in his shoulder since then.

“After the bad days that I have experienced some time.. After many things that make me feel empty and stressed at the same time. I want to be loved. I want there to be someone who so have me, who can be there for me and can be a shield for me”.

“At first I thought Hexa was the one who was the role. But in fact, being a close friend is not enough for me. I want more, the feeling of wanting to have me when I fall is really strong. But it turns out, Hexa can not meet what I want. what else I need in”.

The light caught the gaze of Hala's eyes that looked defeated. His breathing just sounded so sad.

“Ya.. how else. Sometimes life never goes with what I want. I think I'm going to clear my own mind and have to be sure I'm alone enough. I'm pretty much what kayaking is now. I will be sure that I am only in a moment's fidelity. After that, I'll be able to go back as if I were a” first

This time, his smile began to look sincere.

“So the usual Hala again. So Hala is strong!” the funny girl let out. Trying to close the wound back as if bad things never happened.

But, Sinar hates that. He could not just see Hala forcing himself after Sinar saw the authenticity of the woman before his eyes. He did not want to see the happy facade of Hala but deep inside, the woman was shattered like pieces of glass that were scattered on the floor after hitting the hard object.

So maybe he'll do something evil that will hurt himself even further.

Light knows he's a fool, he'll break down at a deeper point. However, he was convinced that, even though he was devastated, he was devastated by his own choices.

“Then it is.” he started. His hand touched Hala's fingers gently.

“You try to make the same commitment I?”

The light does not wait. The man just let his instincts take over. The thing he remembered afterwards was, how the taste of Hala's lips on his lips was so obvious.

Sinar knew he would only hurt himself further. He knew that he would be destroyed in the future. However, Hala deserves the risk that will be his own responsibility with his life.
