Falling Into Your Trap
Nalisa's Rage

Plates full of food presented on the table with luxurious decorations and shapes are also tempting at all no longer interest Lisa. The woman was fed up with whatever the situation had been. Not to mention, the conversation of the parents and also Noren who had chimed up since made him very eager to throw all the things on the table right now.

Her brother was not helping. There, the man just kept quiet and chewed the food on his plate slowly. His eyes also did not glance at himself for a moment.

She feels her world is getting ruined as talk begins to flow like a flood about the date of her marriage to Noren. Not to mention how the two chatty old ladies frenziedly imagined the dresses of their choice for Lisa later. Fathers seem to be happy to talk about their marriage experience. Telling some experience tips to Noren who looks very relaxed and quite like the current situation. No matter how Lisa gritted her teeth and wished all this to stop or if she could hope this was a mere nightmare.

“Ah, Noren, you told Mama yesterday if there was a problem about the same wedding invitation building, huh? How is that now? Have you successfully completed?”

Lisa's ears moved, she turned her head quickly towards Noren in disbelief. What is the real talk and to what extent has it been up to this point? Everything even without Lisa's prior approval?

Errata, he didn't even know that all this would happen in his life just like that.

Nalisa did not expect Noren to be this determined about her joyful feelings which Lisa had obviously rejected out of the blue from the start of their unexpected meeting.

These people are crazy. Not sane. Ten-tenths deserve to be put into the largest mental hospital in the city.

“Oh right it, son Noren?” Sherely asked in surprise. Lisa never wanted to keep her mother's mouth shut until this point.

“Ah, Yes, Ma. Yesterday there was a little problem.” Noren spoke with a small smile. The man had just finished downing his cranberry drink which coincided next to Nalisa. Deliberately, lightly nudge Lisa's shoulder gently.

Okay. Nalisa swore she would look for the nearest tool shop and begin to finish off this crazy man beside her with great dignity. He would chop up Noren's body and dump it in many different places. Maybe put the man's head in the mouth of a hungry crocodile. Lisa was writing a list inside her head that was scrambling right now.

“Waduh, huge ‘kah the problem? You see papa seinget, nak Noren himself ‘kan who want to take care of all your wedding equipment?”

Lisa's gaze pierced sharply at Huston who was cutting his half-cooked meat steak with the tip of a sharp knife that Lisa believed if a demon passed through it, he would not hesitate to take the thing and make his Papa silent. No matter how affectionate he was with both of his parents, the things that were happening right now made him his psychopathic side appear.

Just a figure of speech, indeed. Perhaps only in his shadow was he being engulfed in disappointment and anger at the moment. But who knows what he will do next. At least, Lisa was sure that for a Noren, she would not have the heart to forgive.

“Hmm, regular, Pa. Indeed, the production of the wrong print invitation as many as three hundred invitations and the Ritzz Carlton Hotel canceled the building reservation suddenly because there are other major vendors who turned out to book the event venue at the same date as I reserve.”

Wait, three hundred invitations? And that much is the wrong print? How many more people would that crazy Noren invite actually?. Lisa glared, not believing in her hearing. He cursed inwardly, why didn't they just destroy everything? Then Lisa will party happily if the whole event is cancelled!

“Dangerous as well then, yes, Nak.” Dallas muttered in amazement at the huge mistake that had occurred. But Noren just waved a small hand and shook his head.

“Lucky, anyway, I handled it quickly that time. Even though they ruined my date with Lisa when the problem was incident”

Just sec…

‘So this jerk left me yesterday because there is a problem with this crazy marriage that I do not agree with? Why don't you just ruin all these crazy plans?!' Lisa screamed hysterically in her heart.

‘If you know this, I should just hold him down to really fight. It doesn't matter this jerk is the same I was there because all these stupid things were destroyed. Bangsattt!!’ Lisa growled, unconscious with her vexed voice until Noren nudged her again with a small hand sweep to her arm.

‘What lo jerk?!’ Lisa snorted, glaring at the face of Noren who desperately wanted him to fist right now. However, he still had some respect for the old man who was here..

Or should be -,

Noren dares to smile little teasing Lisa. Pasting her fingers on the lips as a gesture to keep Lisa's speech and attitude in this official dinner.

“Waduh, big problem dong it! Though again friendly both” Jessica sneered, showing her mother's taste to the child. Lisa also wanted to punch the face of the woman who was similar to Noren's.

Well, all the Giovano family really sucks. Lisa wants to get rid of them all to the bottom of the high seas!

“Hahaha, no problem, Ma. Yesterday I was very emotional, anyway, the same staff who handle this problem until I have to intervene. But no problem. Everything is done. And this is what I want to tell you, the wedding seems to be pushed back to the end of January tomorrow. You see hotel reservation I lost to the vendor there, so rather than the longer the problem, I resigned and the fastest reservation just at the end of the month”

Noren sounded a little sour with his words. But, the man didn't even care when Lisa intentionally stomped her feet with the tip of the heels she was wearing. Slightly leaping due to the pain, but the man somehow managed to calm himself down and displayed his best posture in front of both of their parents.

“Well, failed, deh, had a mid-month ghost” Sherely pouted, the woman did not even care how Lisa was surprised by the reaction her mother gave. “But it's okay. The important thing is that the wedding is still going and Noren can still be Mama's best daughter-in-law is the most handsome, right?” Sherely winked. Noren laughed out loud as if Sherely's words tickled his stomach.

This can't be allowed. Lisa's sick of hearing this. Who's actually getting married here? Himself or his mother? Or family? He doesn't approve of anything that's happening right now. Lisa had to voice herself. Otherwise he would be trampled with the decision of this unconscious old man.

“Seneng, deh, it feels. Mama can't believe that Lisa will soon be married to you. Mama can't wait for Mama's son to marry and be happy with you” Sherely back to talk. The woman drank her drink cheerfully.

“I don't want to get married, Mom. It's not my choice!”

One buzz on the table shocked everyone. In fact, the Fathers who had been conversing comfortably together since then and Sinar who did not care about the situation were shocked by Lisa's sudden explosion.

“Sayang.” Noren. This time the man's body turned to face him fully. Her face shrunk, not wanting Lisa to act disrespectful at the mini mala dinner.

“Don't do that, you must be just shocked, right? Just relax, baby. I handled everything right. You don't have to think about anything unnecessary, okay?”

“Diem, lo! From the beginning of this marriage there was absolutely no talk with me, yes! I don't agree! It's called coercion! Ma, Pa, Lisa will never marry Sister Noren! Lisa doesn't like forced marriages like this. No one even talked to me first. What do you think I am?” Lisa stand. Her face flushed. Not to mention when he heard the disgusting utterance that Noren had been calling for a while ago.

“Nalisa, don't be rude!” Huston slightly snapped, the middle-aged man looking at his son with a hard face that he did not like. Lisa rolled her eyes, not caring about anything that happened.

“How can I not be angry if the story is like this Pa? I was fooled without knowing! The marriage will take place without my knowledge and without my consent. If I'm not mad, I'm crazy, Pa! Lisa refused this stupid wedding!”

Lisa doesn't care. He's not gonna give up on Noren. The man will not win over him. He did not care about his attitude in front of the guests. To be honest, she wanted to cry now because she felt that no one was by her side in this matter. Her brother too, had not opened his mouth at all from the start. However, Lisa will not fall for the stupid things that curb her life now.

Marriage is a big thing in his life. Things can change only because of the marriage that binds the rest of her life. Lisa honors marriage as much as she respects her familial relationship and both her parents. She can't just marry someone she doesn't love at all. Or even, Lisa didn't want to get married in this compulsion.

Lisa is a free man. He is free to determine his life purpose. What the heck is all this that ultimately hinders the happiness and freedom he has been holding in his life?! People must be crazy. Lisa knows, the brain behind this is none other than Noren.

Because it was only that person, who forced him in such a way.

As it turns out, the friend title Lisa gave to Noren was completely useless and in the end backfired for Noren to be able to act arbitrarily about his life.

To hell with all this madness! Lisa doesn't care about anything if it's about her life being forcibly snatched away by someone else who isn't her!

“Lisa baby, you must not be ready to do all this, right? Mama understands.but tonight we are again obrolin good about your marriage dear. After all, this is still the wedding at the end of next month, so there is still time for you to get ready. I'm sure you're just nervous now, right?”

Maddened. Her mother was already so insane if the woman said anything stupid would not go in such a way. Lisa wants to cry. He hates these crazy things. She can't cry and shows that she's weak, because she's not! He was simply overwhelmed with raging emotions right now. Just this time, he hated his two parents who would fight him over such a thing.

His parents were embarrassed by his snapping in front of colleagues of large company owners in some of these countries. Giovano is a big and big name. But Giovano is also a sly name with the madman who bears the surname.

“Mama still doesn't understand what Lisa said?! Lisa did not want to marry Noren. Lisa also did not want this marriage to happen. Lisa's not nervous about that crazy thing you've been talking about. Lisa doesn't know, as cute as if you're actually the same Lisa's life. But Lisa would never want this wedding to happen!” He snapped again, his breathing disordered as his explosive emotions would get out of control. He sure could turn into a demon if he didn't hold back all this lump of ugly emotions.

“Papa if you want to snatch Lisa, please! But Lisa asked for all this to be canceled because Lisa never wanted to have this wedding at all! Lisa is not in love with Sister Noren and will never love!”

“Honey, you calm down first, okay?” Noren gently stood up, holding onto Lisa's shoulders to calm the woman down. In fact, it was quickly Lisa tepis. He cast a death gaze as he inched backwards and moved away. His face was clearly red with emotion.

“Diem lo!” Nalisa glared before turning around to look at the angry and shocked elders in front of her.

“Sorry Aunt and Om Giovano, I cannot continue my marriage because I will never marry your child. I do not love Brother Noren and all this is coercion without my consent. If anyone wants to be blamed, I suggest you blame your child who has made all things this big!”

Lisa couldn't bear to not yell. But unfortunately, Noren again touched his back to calm him down and Lisa burned emotions from that stupid move.

“Lease! I'm going out. Don't think all this is just my play because I balk at all the things about stupid marriages that you put up in this stupid event. I'm out!” Lisa quickly moved away from the banquet room. But, before he had fully managed to get out of it, he turned to Noren with a single glare of death that he unsheathed.

“And from now on, I won't consider my friend anymore or even more of the strangers I hate! Hold my word, asshole!”

And after that, one door slam was heard inside the quiet room. Noren sighed before returning to sit in his place. His hands sat on both his thighs and his eyes were closed to hold himself.

There was a moment of silence before the head of the Cakrawijaya family opened his voice to have his eldest son follow the youngest.

“Sinar, please accompany your sister and do not let her go home alone”

“Okay, Pa”

Afterwards, Sinar followed in Nalisa's footsteps to get out of the heated room just a moment ago.

...........

“From the deepest of hearts, please forgive the attitude and behavior of my smallest child. He doesn't usually behave that way in front of guests. Please forgive my son”

Noren saw how Huston stood up and bowed deeply to his parents. While Sherely seemed to look very embarrassed to have to lower his surprised face. Noren realized, the reaction from Lisa at this time was a reaction that could not be predicted by both parents.

Actually Noren was aware that dinner would be this bad. That's why he's prepared for things like this. So, he simply smiled and stood up to have Huston sit back down. She had already planned things carefully, so, Lisa's rejection and Nalisa's emotions today were nothing at all. This is a small problem and they will continue to carry out the marriage without being hindered by anything.

“Nothing, Pa. Lisa must have been just surprised by this because I haven't told Lisa about her wedding at all. He may not have any preparation at all. Anyway, I already knew it would happen this way, Kok” Noren explained casually. He moved closer to Huston and patted his shoulder gently.

“Stay, Lisa shouldn't be acting like that in front of your parents, son Noren. It's our fault for not guiding Lisa until the boy dares to be so disrespectful like last”

“Nnothing, Pa.. Papa has sat down, yes.”

“But I am very shy..”

“Huston, please sit down! We've been told by Noren before about how Lisa will respond to this conversation. So my wife and I were not surprised at all, just a little. Segini” Dallas showed her pursed hand showing the distance between her index and thumb very narrow.

Noren chuckles when he finds the surprised face of his future father-in-law. The head of the Cakrawijaya family stared in amazement at the antics suddenly delivered by his business partner and his future besi. But even so, Huston remained seated even though his shock had not disappeared at all.

“Jeng Jessica.. how, how can you calm down? My son was insolent.” Sherely spoke slowly, still surprised by the situation. However, the woman was soothed with claps and giggles from Jessica.

“Later Noren explain. But we have been briefed first actually the same this child. She insists that she only wants to marry Lisa. So, what can we do? As long as Noren is seneng, we also join seneng really. Especially when you know that my candidate besan ya you, Jeng”

“Aduh.. I so how ya..”

Noren smiles at the interaction his parents had with Lisa's family. His body that had been tense since then, he rested on the shoulder of the chair. It was very interesting to massage the temple but he humphed. Afraid that if she did, her parents would withdraw all her wishes and ban her from this marriage.

Remember that time when he asked them not to match him with anyone. Including the children of the Herrmington family or the daughters of other business families who have been sought by both parents. Noren insists that he will marry Nalisa from the Cakrawijaya family one day.

His family disagreed and hesitated, but because Noren insisted and insisted that he remain free to choose his mate, his parents agreed on the condition that he should marry when he turned 29. Next year, his age will be enough. He should launch this marriage.

He had already given Lisa approach time for three months and even more. So, if this doesn't work out at all, she will continue even if Lisa likes it or doesn't. Nalisa is hers to belong to and there should be no one else but her.

Noren wicked. Let him know it and he will not correct it.

Because for one and for his love, he will do anything.

Let's say he's obsessed with his desire to have Nalisa and he won't deny it. Nalisa is his and not someone else's.

“Mama, Papa, Noren know that suppose Lisa would not agree with this marriage. Mama and Papa also had doubts ‘kan with Noren's request to marry Lisa in advance before I choose to take over the company in this city?” Noren begins, recalling how he began to ask Lisa to the Cakrawijaya family at that time. Also how Sinar gladly supported her with a burning spirit.

Her small smile was present, the pleasure of feeling on that day appeared like a calming wave.

“But I've also convinced you that Lisa is safe with me, right? I can make sure Lisa's happy with me because I love your son so much. Please Ma, Pa, don't hesitate with Lisa's life in my hands. I just need the blessing of both of you and also of my family”

Actually Noren doesn't need to be as clear as he is right now. The Cakrawijaya family loved him very much and desperately needed the cooperation of the company they built together at one time when the spare parts company was faltering. Noren is one hundred percent convinced that the Cakrawijaya family is as petty as the families of other business people who will sell their children to keep their company stable.

Although, the Cakrawijaya family somewhat needs to be bribed in some way. They were a bit stubborn, like their children. This was a loophole in the crafty business world that Noren had learned over the years he was in the business.

“Ah then... when will you guys go shirt fittings?”

Noren's grin was stirred when Sherely began to get excited about the wedding. Although he had to apologize and humble himself to his parents later, it could be done easily.

There are no mistakes, the marriage will continue.

Like it or not.
