Trapped in the Past
Tragedies

The days after that passed. The wound on Ruri's knee had healed completely, Alita and Kagami had already started their side job for three days. This is the right time, Ruri decided to read the romance novel she bought some time ago. Bombin Stone's Mirror Love.

Slowly sheet by sheet the book was turned around, his smile they read the beautiful words there, sometimes also turned tense when he reached the top of the story. Until the end of the novel he read, without realizing the corner of Rui's eyes watering. He was overwhelmed by the love story of the main character of the novel.

Ruri read the novel all day, starting from the morning before leaving school and finishing at six in the afternoon. Really exhausting, stirring feelings and opium. Everything Ruri was looking for she found there.

Bombin Stone says, "Falling in love and being happy are two different things. You will know the answer after the figure is far in your eyes."

On the next page Ruri found the answer. "What do you feel? Do you miss her and wish she was always around you or do you only care if she's next to you?"

Ruri's face blushed after reading it, under the thick blanket the glasses girl was holding back the happy turmoil she felt at the moment. The thin frame glasses she was wearing barely came loose as she hugged the roll tightly. Falling in love drove him crazy. He confirmed his feelings at that second, that he loved Dion. A man he never even occasionally targets, but accidentally fate brings them together and grows the seeds of love as time goes on together.

The pleasure in his heart had not subsided, just suddenly his phone shook. A message from Dion was plastered on the phone screen. Ruri's smile read it.

[Ruri, I want to give you something. We met at the cafe shop fresh, yes. Where Alita and Kagami work.]

Smile ended the message.

Ruri thought for a while, once Dion asked her to meet at the cafe just to give something. Usually, many gifts were given to him in person at school or at other times on the road.

Ruri types a reply after a long fondling.

[Lazy! Why not just go to school as usual? What does she want love?] reply with cold-pitched typing.

[Not good at school, the atmosphere is too formal. I want it in the cafe, there we can relax. Occasional.]

[Look, we'll meet at the cafe. What about our last meeting, Sweet Glasses?]

As the message was read by Ruri, she felt as if she was being threatened. Strange as it feels, the figure of Dion who is always attentive, gentle and likes to say beautiful words suddenly turned into a menacing figure like this. The message bothered Ruri for a while, but afterwards she tried to calm down and type a reply message.

[Brewles! Yes, I'll be there. At seven o'clock.] reply immediately.

The big emoticons Dion sent ended their conversation. The thing that Dion sent him was still bothering him, but after the scene in the romance novel was spinning in the head like a movie theater, he said, Ruri smiled herself imagining whether her encounter with Dion would be like the main character in the story?

The moon shone brightly on the night of their covenant. Main figure–si man– holding flowers, long standing in front of a cafe. His face was groggy, scared and happy mixed into one until without him noticing the woman of his heart was standing across the street waiting for him to take a step.

The main cast strengthens the heart before stepping, while the woman waits for the man to take a step, then she moves on from there.

They are like railroad cars that cannot go hand in hand. Waiting for each other. However, after going through a long conflict, they can finally become mirrors that reflect each other's shadows.

When they look at each other, they see their own shadow. Complement each other, like a body and a mirror image. This is why the novel is called Mirror Love. Ruri glazed over with the sweet story.

What a very stirring reading.

His phone turned off, Dion lying on the bed looking at the wall clock in front of him. Slowly the clock moved, slowly his heart beat faster. This uneasiness tormented Dion, who was tempted to cancel an appointment with Ruri. However, he undoed that intention, considering that after the message contained the threat he sent accidentally and if he suddenly canceled the appointment, surely Ruri would be upset later with him. Slowly Dion took a breath, trying to master his fear.

Brown box tied ribbon on nightstand he lyrics again. It was a gift he was going to give to Ruri. The contents inside were not very luxurious, but Dion vented all his heart making it.

The brown box gave a calmness in his heart, slowly painted Ruri's sweet smile there. Dion closed his eyes, recalling how his heart could have fallen on the bespectacled sweet girl.

When it was hot sun alone beat the charm of Ruri. How he had forgotten himself, staring at the glasses angel on the podium. His struggle until this moment has been a lot to gain the trust of Ruri, there is no way he could just waste it. Dion wants to solidify his heart tonight. In a fresh shop cafe that always makes his blood boil when the cafe owner's face is imagined in his mind. Not only against fear and trauma, but Dion also against time, he has decided to finish everything at seven tonight.

There's no use hiding anymore. Gradually Ruri will definitely know about her fear of family, talent and her past. Dion intends to tell Ruri at their meeting later. Reassure the girl that she trusts Ruri.

Dion snatched his blue jacket, staring again at his reflection in the mirror. He sighed, steadying himself. The ribboned chocolate box he took, slowly his feet stepped away from the cost.

Throughout the long move his memories in the beginning showed his drawing talent to Ruri guerrilla in the head. At that time Dion decided to approach Ruri by showing her the nature as it is, not like other men that Ruri meant. Just then Dion was able to fight his fear and succeed, this time he kept repeating the scene in his head to give him some spirit.

Dion got into the cab he ordered. Giving orders to take him to a fresh shop cafe.

"Wear the seatbelt" said the driver.

Dion refused. "It's okay. The journey is not long, I will be careful."

When Dion had just moved from his boarding house, Ruri was already waiting across the cafe. Intentionally waiting there, in addition to monitoring Dion he also wanted to imitate the scene in the novel. When the woman stood across the street. Ruri thought it was sweet and wanted to act like the girl in the novel.

The moon was shining brightly on the road. The night wind was blowing carrying a mist that was slowly faintly interfering with vision. Being too excited and arriving early, Ruri felt drowsy. In the car he decides to curl up, closing his eyes for a while before meeting Dion, what's wrong.

"Wake Ruri up if Ruri's phone vibrates, yes, sir," she told Miko, her driver nodding.

The cafe was already visible in the eye pelupuk, Dion pensive at the time. Suddenly he felt nothing. Afraid, cold and happy as if reluctant to greet his heart. Far away his eyes glared forward, it felt like time was running slow in the last seconds before Dion and the driver who took him was hit by a disaster that had never been expected before.

The taxi that brought Dion stopped in front of the cafe, not a few minutes they stopped there even the car engine was not dead, a high-speed car suddenly came from the opposite direction to hit them. The half-burned car was speeding up to hit the front of the taxi, the fire slowly crept into the engine section of the taxi accompanied by a loud bang echoing in the fog-filled night. The taxi driver in the front seat died instantly. Dion, who was not wearing a seatbelt, bounced between the passengers' seats.

The heat of the fire that was slowly shaking towards him accompanied Dion's attempt to get out of there. The taxi door was opened, but because the position of his foot was stuck he could not move much. He couldn't save himself. A loud bang echoed for a second time when the taxi's engine exploded and Dion's consciousness disappeared. The two cars were perfectly burnt with pitch-black smoke billowing through the air.

Dion's body was blown away by the blast, crashing into the front door of the cafe with horrific consequences. His body was burned by nearly fifty percent. Blood pouring from his head pecked at the screams of cafe visitors.

In the second bang, Ruri regained consciousness from her short sleep. The screams of cafe visitors lead Ruri's eyes in a daze looking at the man lying covered in blood. Ruri had not known the sad figure, until a fact slapped him.

"Dion! That's Dion. Anyone, please quickly call an ambulance!" pekik Kagami from inside the cafe, a furore ensued.

Ruri's eyes were perfectly round hearing him. Slowly the pain crept into her eyeballs, with eyes splattered with water she screamed from across the cafe. Rebels wanted to run there, but Mr. Miko quickly prevented it because crossing the road with conditions like this is very dangerous.

Ruri hit the door of the locked car many times. "Dion! That's Dion, sir! Ruri's going there!" yank.
