Loving Papa's Friend

The Soulless Body

Bela stepped on the gas of his car, driving away quickly from the restaurant where they ate. Many times he squeezed his chest, feeling tightness, the oxygen he inhaled was unable to penetrate his throat. The tears kept flowing down his face. If only he waited until Agam finished explaining, perhaps Agam had a reason he would accept. But Bela could not hear any further. Whatever the reason, it cannot change the reality.

Aarrgh.....

Bela swept through everything on her dresser with both hands, there was a sound of fragments interlocking. Looking at her reflection in the mirror. It's been so messy. His bright aura turned into a dark light, now only a soulless body tertasasa.soul has drowned along with all the future dreams that have been so in the framework.

Prangs....

A mirror that reflects itself. Cerimin who was once intact, now only pieces that reflect the reflection of his already shapeless self. Same with his heart that has become fragments that are impossible to reassemble.

Bela lays herself embracing all the sadness, anger and despair. Bela still can't believe she dumped Agam. Bela interpreted this separation, as the day he was thrown away, because it was no longer meaningful and not worth fighting for. And, Agam chose to keep the garbage that should be thrown away instead of himself.

David ran when he heard the sound of something breaking in Bela's room.

tock...

tock...

tock...

David held an unlocked door handle

"Defender come in!" He said when he heard nothing from inside Bela's room.

Then David pushed the door handle, and

David was flabbergasted, looking at Bela's already messy room. All the objects that were originally standing upright, now scattered on the floor, his eyes turned to look for the figure of his son. And it turns out that David saw Bela sleeping on her side hugging her own knee.

David approached Bela, as soon as his knee collapsed beside Bela's bed. David rubbed his daughter who was staring blankly in one direction.

"So why are you like this, baby?" Shouted David. hugging Bela's weak body.

"Who made you come this way?"

The once cheerful face was now as somber as a withered flower. His brilliance and warmth simply vanished.

......※※※※......

Maya who gets the news from David immediately takes her car to Bela's house.

"Bela why o'm." Ask as soon as you enter the house.

"May, please accompany Bela for now. Doctors say that Bela is currently depressed, according to him Bela has just experienced an event that he cannot bear. You know something, May?Is Bela close to someone?"

Maya can't answer anything, she's afraid she's wrong.

"I don't know much. Why can it be like this? wasn't he okay yesterday?"

"Yes, Om also does not know for sure, yesterday om came Bela is like now. Hence, if you know something, or whatever it is you need to know it all!"

"Maya don't know om, bela hasn't had time to tell." Maya remains silent, she doesn't want to say anything without Bela's approval.

"Well, you meet Bela!"

Maya slowly opens the door to Bela's room. The room is dark, all the curtains are closed, if only there were no lights that illuminate this room, of course this room will be pitch black.

Maya slowly stepped closer to Bela seeing the empty gaze of Bela, Maya like feeling what she was currently feeling.

"Rubber..." Maya rubbed Bela's arm gently.

Bela just kept quiet, not responding to Maya.

Maya believes this is Agam's doing. Because Agam is enchanted with Bela. It was Agam who picked up Bela on campus yesterday. Maya clenched her hands, eager for her to raise her fists to the priest.

"So, aren't you going to tell me what happened to you. What has Agam done?"

Bela cries again to hear Maya say Agam's name.

"Don't be on your own, I'm here to listen to everything, share your pain with me Bel, as we always do!"

Only tears kept flowing with every word that came out of Maya's lips. Without any response from Bela.

Then Maya stood clenched her hands, saying a sentence of cracking so that her best friend responds to all her words.

"Do I have to ask Agam all this?!"

"Don't May!" Prevent Bela with a hoarse voice, Maybe because Bela cried a lot.

Maya who heard Bela speak instantly turned around and approached her.

"Defenders," he said in amazement as bela was already able to speak.

He pulled out Bela's hand and carried it into his wound.

"I'm sad to see you like this!" Maya whispers in Bela's ear.

"May I need myself! there's a time when I'll tell you everything!"

Then Bela pulled herself back to sleep.

Maya was a little relieved because Bela was willing to talk to her, it was only a matter of time. Maya is convinced that time will cure Bela of her depression.

...※※※※...

A few more days are the days that Bram will be having a celebration party for his new product. And he was currently discussing it with David.

"Are you okay?" Bram touched David's hand, waking him from daydreams, as he felt David was not paying attention to his explanation.

His originally empty gaze, now looked back at his co-spokesman.

"Sorry sir, I'm a little distracted. Where did we get to? David asked back to the topic.

"While we delay this discussion! instead, tell me what makes a David unfocused!" Bram shifted his work files, and was ready to listen to David's story.

"I was worrying about Bela. Right now she was unstable, her smile disappeared, her cheerfulness disappeared. It's been a few days now he's just lying on his bed. To date I don't know what causes it, and who?"

"You should take her to the doctor immediately!"

"Have.the doctor just said, Defend Depression. According to him, Bela has experienced severe events that Bela cannot overcome."

"Do you suspect something or maybe someone?" Ask again.

"That's what frustrates me. I don't suspect anyone."

"Your enemies might?" Bram again asked the possibilities.

"No. I dare not speculate. I don't have any proof."

"No. Just haven't found it yet."

Bram stood up after he was finished with his speech.

"May Bela return soon with all her cheerfulness. I'll tell Daniel that he'll come with Bela on his day off."

"Thank you Bram for your attention."

David escorted Bram out of his room.

David went back into his office, and stood staring at the painting of his father's legacy.

David recalled the time his father moved his beloved painting to David's workspace during his appointment at this company, hoping David would remain ever vigilant of anyone.

"Am I still with my father's hopes?"

David is still David. He will only believe in something certain. He did not want his life to be full of suspicions that would later make his life depressed full of worries.

Drrt...Drr...

"Hallo, did something happen to Bela?" Asking So picked up the phone from the art at her house.

"No sir, I just want to tell you that non Bela has come down from her room."

"You mean, Bela's back like before?"

"Eeemmm. No sir, his face was still gloomy....

"Okay I understand. I'm going home now."

David felt as air entered through the cracks that had opened, flowing throughout his body. So that his body no longer feels the heat that makes him jump around looking for freshness.

"Dear, you're finally back."

Bela only raised a little both ends of her lips.

"There's something you want dear Do you need papa to pick Maya up?"

Bela nodded her head, without turning her face towards David.

For David it does not matter, with Bela out of his room alone has made him very happy.

"You wait, Maya will be picked up."

"Aren't you going to tell papa?"

Bela again used her head cue in response to all of David's questions.

"No problem, you can tell it when you're ready.

Bela, as long as you know, papa always supports you, but it is, papa will always be there for you. only you have in this world. Seeing you like this is painful. Papa's lost his spirit."

"I'm sorry Bela pa...." He hugged David.Bela could not bear to see David crying. Tears that he had initially held back, dripped back because of his father's speech. But still, it was impossible for Bela to tell David the truth.
