Trapped In His Cage
Barcelona
“What? Why are you laughing?”
Carissa laughed out loud at the outpouring of her best friend's heart. They were at a cafe.
“Fix you're in love with him. Don't be evasive, he also expressed love. Very prestigious you are this”
This weekend, April recounts how she felt when she was near Sean. The woman was confused by all the things she had just felt.
Naturally he was single from birth! sean has ex everywhere. Yes, even though the man is not actually dating but still he is a professional when it comes to dating.
“I don't know.”
“Ck you say worry when he is sick, always miss him, happy when you see he is happy, your heart is pounding not to mention you are jealous when the spell is acting. It's called you falling in love, you stupid so”
“Is that so? do I have to answer her love statement?”
“Emm.seems so. But if I see Sean is so obsessed with you well regardless he declares his love maybe you can help calm down if he starts to harm you”
Carissa said, Sean's obsession with him is too great. Sometimes if he is out of control his gaze will change, and at times it may be more dangerous.
Looks like April's stuck here. If he ran away or wanted to escape the man, it was likely that danger would come to him because Sean would never let go.
How'this? April is getting scared now.
“Looks like I'm so missing mom”
That sad look filled Carissa's heart. He knew his best friend had no other family, his own life.
“Truely too, you haven't been to Barcelona in a long time right?”
“Hmm..do I have to see mom”
If you are confused like this, April must immediately ask for the opinion of her mother, Helena. But now he could no longer, nor had he listened to his mother's advice.
“Just go to Barcelona, you will be able to take time off with his CEO girlfriend. Ah try not to tell Sean to prove that my supervisor of his obsession is true”
“Just for free he will track me easily. Password of the apartment was broken into”
The beautiful Toyoran lands seamlessly on the head of April, an uproar is present at the cafe by the two of them. Fortunately it was quiet.
“You're stupid huh! turn off your phone then it won't be traceable”
April thought for a moment, it seems like an interesting idea. He wanted to see the man worried and look for him, well what else is this with him.
Suddenly Carissa laughed again “You know? you used to berate Sean, even you swore you wouldn't want a partner like him”
“Thatch first and stop teasing me. Just watch out when you're in love later”
“So admit it, if you're in love?”
Ops he's talking wrong. Better to change the topic of conversation.
“You don't want to come to Barcelona?”
“I want. But you know I'm the most reliable doctor so it's a little hard to leave except for work”
“About once. You take care of tonight?”
Carissa nodded while sipping her smothies. April smiled obliquely.
“Today quiet yes no patient”
Toyoran smoothly landed again in the head of April. It was a sentence like a forbidden spell to say.
“Mouth guarded. But fortunately this is in cafe” said Carissa anxious, April it was just a loud laugh to see the look on his face.
...****************...
Flights to Barcelona are being prepared. The voice of the flight attendant began to remind passengers to wear seat belts. American Airline became April's choice to go.
Intentionally he didn't use Raymond Air's access. Could fail his plan later, even as he hardens asking for leave due to his strange illness Bertha allows it easily.
His phone has also been disabled since he was still feeling in the apartment. Turns out this was fun, going without telling Sean.
The plane was in the air, April leisurely sitting in business class watching a movie.
“You want to drink miss?”
April glanced towards the drink brought by the flight attendant. He picked up orange juice, glimpsing his eyes looking at the americano there.
‘Sean likes ice americano’
His lips smiled wryly considering the man, his eyes refocused on the film. But a thought flashed through his mind.
Is Sean gonna find him?
He's worried about no?
What if he doesn't care?
His spirit came down immediately. Right too, he was too confident. Other negative thoughts appeared in April's head.
He's afraid that Sean just made him an outburst of lust. He was afraid that the man was just saying nonsense.
‘Already. Just look at later’
April arrives in Barcelona after an eight-hour flight. For five years he had not visited the city. Why do her tears glisten, so emotional of herself.
“I have to contact Talitha”.
Talitha is his neighbor in Barcelona. Their house is next door, the woman still lives with her grandmother and mother there.
April patted her eel, almost she activated the phone. There is currently no digital object that he is activating. The woman decided to take a taxi to her old house.
The city of Barcelona has changed a lot, but the sparkling atmosphere of the night is still the same as before. Even the restaurant he frequented with Helena was still open.
The old house in front of him is still the same, April like nostalgia.
His feet stepped into the house next to him, Thalita's house. Open the fence, then stand in front of the door. As she opened, a grandmother was surprised to see her.
“Hai nek, how are you?”
Grandma Maria immediately hugged him tightly “Jeez Helena! I haven't seen you in a long time
April laughed at her, Maria does have a short-term memory because of her age. My grandmother is now 90 years old.
“Who is grandma? oh gosh!”
Thalita shut her mouth in disbelief with this man before her. She hugged April too.
“Heh! you should have called me first don't come suddenly like this”
“Intentionally let there be a surprise. Mother where?”
“Oh he's on a visit in Madrid. We'll call him. How long are you gonna be here?”
They had nothing changed, April was amazed by this atmosphere.
“Perhaps about three days”
“Can't you stay here longer son?”
April smiled gently at Maria, at least she could be here and look back at the city she grew up in.
“Sorry my work will pile up if I take too long. Oh yes I will sleep at home, they routinely take care of it right?”
During this time there is always an April messenger to maintain the condition of his home. He did not intend to sell the house, because he might one day go there with his small family. Or maybe stay there again.
“They always check it, repair is also done. No need to worry, let me accompany there”
“I go home first ya nek, rest lah”
“This again yes Helena”
Thalita rolled her eyeballs, her grandmother always mispronounced her name April.
“Nek, his name is April”
April just laughed and pulled Thalita to go to her house next door. She had no problem being called Helena by Mary, because every time she told her name she kept calling her Helena.
The door of April's house opens revealing a clean living room with dust. Family photos also photos of her still small still neatly arranged in the original place.
“If you need something call me, rest first you must be tired or want to eat? your home has no groceries you can eat at my home”
“No I'm full, I want to rest”
“Oke, call me if you need anything”
“Iya.iya already there you will tomorrow work”
After saying good night to Thalita. April dragged the suitcase into her room, the single-size bed was still the same feel of the pink room was still warm and comfortable. The woman fell asleep in her room.
...****************...
Sean called April repeatedly but the number was still off. Sean believes both his phones are disabled. What the hell is it? she was afraid something might happen to April.
James knocked on the door of his room.
“Masuk”
“From tracking results, last night in April boarded American Airline to Barcelona”
Sean held onto his head which started pulsing. He was thinking hard about what mistake he had made until April not telling him to go to Barcelona.
The man was afraid that April hated him and left. This could not be allowed, as soon as he had to tie the woman in a marriage.
“Prepare my flight to Barcelona now”
“How about the meeting this morning?”
“Pending just”
James is not surprised anymore, indeed April is the one who is good at making Sean careless. He just hoped that April would quickly realize the feelings of her heart.
“... and have them watch April there”
“Baik”
Sean rushed off to the airport to catch up with April, his head pulsing intensely now. Fear and worry rolled up his soul, he could go crazy because of the woman.
When she fell ill too because April had kept her quiet for a few days. Dizziness and fever immediately stopped him at that time. He also can't channel his lust because April is angry.
Resist the pain and resist antidepressants. It's all for the sake of a woman.
‘Don't make me crazy, dear’
His car was speeding through the streets, taking only a few minutes to arrive at the airport. Regardless of the greeting from the officer, Sean immediately sat on the plane while checking messages from his men.
April's photo of a woman eating at least makes her a little calm. Looking at April that was fine was enough now.
“Awage him continue”
“Good bos”
While in a restaurant located in the center of Barcelona, April and Thalita were eating and telling stories about their time in school.
“Deborah is now married to Marcel. Jeez I did not expect when I saw their wedding photo so familiar”
“And they were enemies, right? frequent fights also”
“Yes that's the name of a mate, could be the person you hate so much it is your partner for life” said Thalita relaxed.
April who heard him laughed awkwardly as she remembered Sean. He used to hate that guy so much, but now misses attacking him.
Is that guy looking for her now?
His thoughts about Sean stalled when nausea attacked because of the fishy smell of the newly served shrimp on the table.
“Why? don't you like shrimp?”
“The smell is a little bad. Have they changed the recipe?” april's hand was still covering her nose.
Thalita called the restaurant waiter asking that the shrimp be wrapped for take away later.
“It looks like your jetlag is still attacking”
“Iya seems so”
They continued eating and returned to telling stories. After that they went for a walk in the city of Barcelona to see the museum, go to the street market and visit their high school first.
Fortunately Thalita gets permission from her boutique to accompany April. She is a well-known designer in Barcelona and works for her senior boutique.
It didn't feel like it was late at night, but Thalita and April were still cool at BeBil. One of the night markets in Barcelona. Without knowing there was someone who kept following the two of them.
