Trapped

The crowd screamed so loud to the extent one cannot easily hear him/her self. They were eagerly anticipating the performance of Justin, the 3-times MTV base music award winner who was to perform his award winning song "locked in your love".

Behind the stage Justin took a few deep breaths, his knees were shaking from the nervousness, and his bladder was making him take the road to washroom one too many times. The SoFi stadium in Inglewood was huge, and it was filled to the max. Justin took one final breath, put his earpiece in its place and waited under the stage.

He will appear on stage after the opening act was finished. His mind was entering into a state of maximum concentration, nothing could go wrong today. Little did he know that this was his last performance ever.

His crew were behind him, just as the lift took him onto the stage. He was the main act, the uproar from the crowd almost brought him to tears, everyone cheered and called out his name. He was living his dream, but it didn't take long however, for this dream to turn into a nightmare.

Halfway through his performance, he approached the edge of the stage to get closer to his fans. His fans pressed hard to get just one touch of his glimmering skin. He walked across the edge of the stage, giving his fans a sweeping touch of his hands. Unless someone grabbed his hand making him halt his surfing, everything was going smoothly as his hand floated seemlessly over the wave of infinite fingers,

Being a professional, he continued singing while simultaneously trying to get rid of the hold from some of his fans. When he failed to do it for a few seconds, he looked back and froze as he found himself falling from the stage. The music and back track kept running, but he was no longer aware of his surroundings.

The walls around him seemed to close, although there were none to begin with. He found himself teleported in a dimly lit small room where the air smelled dank from being caught in for a long time. It was a nauseating mix of smell of canned food, exotic perfumes, unwashed clothes and bedding. In the background, a soft music played "locked in your love" it was called.

Justin wrote and sang the song. It was an award winning hit, and soon it climbed to the top of the charts. Remembering how happy he was when he heard about the song's success, he cried tears of joy and did his happy uncaring dance. Anyone who heard it could not help but feel absolutely mesmerized, a review said back then.

However, Justin wasn't mesmerized anymore, he was sick to stomach of this song that was playing on a loop for days. The voice came from the four speakers that were in the four corners of his room. Justin tried to reach them often, but he was always stopped by his broken leg. His left leg was bandaged since it was broken after his fall from the stage. He couldn't reach the stereo, and there was no way he could switch it off.

All he could do was to scream at the walls for deliverance, but the walls filled with his own smiling photos, screamed back at him. Just then, he realized that he was trapped in his own song.
