CHAPTER 10 : YOU'RE TRAPPED

Josh had planned something on his mind, this time he involved someone. He asked Eddy to had lunch together that day.

Josh :"Hi Ed, do you have any girlfriend ?"

Eddy :"No, not yet, mind get me one ?"

Josh :"You like Marcia don't you ?"

Eddy :"hahaha... how do you know that ? Is that obvious ?"

Josh :"But you had been hesitated because she's Hawk's right ?"

Eddy :"Yeah, but I've been wondered, did Hawk satisfied her well ? Looks like she had an eye to other guys !"

Josh :"Do you think she's interested on you too ?"

Eddy :"Hmmm... maybe, we live in the same building, sometime I felt she's flirting me. Should I try pursuing her ?"

Josh :"You'll never know if you'll never try ! How about if I'll help you to make sure ?"

Eddy :"What do you mean ?"

Josh :"I have a plan ..." Josh lowered his voice explaining his plan to Eddy.

The next day after work Josh invited Hawk to have dinner together to celebrate their achievement on their project, while Eddy was seducing Marcia in her room. Marcia actually asked him to had chat on his room, but he refused, he insisted to had chat in her room because his room was to narrow. They started to had chat together, he was exploring the possibilities of her liking him also. They've chatted for an hour then he offered her a glass of wine, he add aphrodisiac on her drink. In 30 minutes she got hot and she started seducing Eddy and the next minutes they together in bed both naked, Eddy got excited with her passion. He kissed her lips, her neck, and he touched her lower body. They both were enjoying every minutes of the excitement they had, she moaned and they both were on top of their hot moment, then suddenly Hawk opened the door and came into his room, he switch on the lights and he caught them..... He got mad to see it !

Hawk :"Get out Eddy ! Now !"

Josh heard Hawk's voice, he was outside his house, he didn't want to be seen by anyone especially Eddy. Because he told him his plan before to take Hawk went dinner while Eddy could had sex with Marcia. But now Eddy busted by Hawk. Actually his planned had worked to get Hawk to dinner, but Hawk suddenly wanted to go home while Eddy's mission hadn't finished yet. He said to himself "Ah you're trapped Marcia ! I've got my revenge to you. Now, Hawk can see who you really are !" Josh was satisfied with his plan, he went home with big smile.

Both Eddy and Marcia got shock, they thought Hawk would go home late that night. Eddy wore his cloth in rush, he felt embarrassed with Hawk, he said sorry to Hawk then left his room. Now, Marcia left alone in that room. Hawk threw her dress to the bed.

Hawk :"Wear your dress first, we need to talk !"

Marcia wore her dress and she sat in the edge of the bed. She couldn't think any excuses in the short time. She just silent, then Hawk started to talk to her in lower tone, he was trying to control his emotion.

Hawk :"Marcia, do you really love me ?"

Marcia :"I'm sorry Hawk."

Hawk :"Please answer me Marcia ? We've been together for two years, do you really love me ?"

Marcia :"I used to like you, you are a nice guy."

Hawk :"Used to ? .... So, now you don't like me ? Have you bored with me already ?"

Marcia :"It's not that I'm bored with you." But in her heart she admitted that she had bored with him.

Hawk :"Then tell me what was that you with Eddy just now ?"

Marcia :"It's my fault just now with Eddy, I'm sorry Hawk."

Hawk :"So, what do you want from me now ?"

Marcia :"Just forget about this !"

Hawk :"Forget ? How can I forget what I saw just now easily ? OK Marcia, I think you and I need some space to calm down. I'll give you two days, then we'll meet again here. I'll go tonight, I can't face you right now."

Hawk packed some of his things, and then he left to find a motel room.

Marcia left alone in that room, she got shock and her mind went blank. She cried a little, but she never regretted she had sex with Eddy just now, because she had sex with other men also without Hawk's noticed before. But this time a bit different because Hawk caught her and warned her, she maybe had to split up from Hawk after this, would she ready ? She was confusing now and she got sleep after a hour.

The next day, Josh saw Hawk had came to work very early. They crossed path with Eddy that morning, but Eddy just silent and Hawk looked other side, they didn't talk to each other also at lunch. Josh knew what had happened last night, but he asked Hawk.

Josh :"Hawk, what happen with you and Eddy ? Why didn't you talk to each other ?"

Hawk :"Nothing.... Josh, I've been thinking about what you said to me while we were abroad."

Josh :"Which one ?"

Hawk :"About my relation with Marcia, maybe you were right, we were meant to be. Her concept of life is different with me. Actually I've been told by some people that Marcia had slept with some guys while I wasn't around, but I didn't believe them. But, since I saw them last night together with my own eyes.... I think I can't hold her any longer. She is free spirit woman, she's like a bird that I can't hold in my cage. Now I'm thinking to give her freedom."

Josh :"Well, if you think that's the best for you both then do it, I support you ! There are still a lot of nice woman out there. I don't like Marcia either. But, I think you can't sacrifice your friendship with Eddy."

Hawk :"How do you know it was Eddy last night ?"

Josh :"I hadn't far from your house last night when I heard your shout to Eddy."

Hawk :"I shouted that loud ?"

Josh just laughed, Hawk felt embarrassed.

Josh :"Well, I hope you and Eddy will get along again in the short time, don't let that woman ruin your friendship ! Let's go we have a lot to do again after this."

His mom :"You little rascal ! You've made me wondering alone all this time ! Don't tell me Phil you snatched someone's wife ?"

Phil :"Of course not mom, I knew her because I was babysitting her baby. Her husband died at the sea before she gave birth. I felt pity to her at first, but later on I felt in love with her. Mom please accept her as your daughter in law, she's a kind woman even she was from the orphanage."

His mom :"She's orphan ? Oh how pitiful her life is ! OK let's get back to her and help me prepare the food."
