Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

Gifer tried to open the letter from Nara that was neatly packed in the envelope. He read it on the balcony of his spacious apartment while standing there.

The contents of Nara’s letter:

I’m sorry, Gifer. It was all my fault, yes, from the beginning, as you already know. The accident on the Kendal-Jakarta highway at that time, Yohanes and I planned it to blind you with both eyes. After making you blind, I blamed Raya for the whole thing. And when you were going to get an eye donor, I blacklisted all the hospitals so you couldn’t get one. I’m such a bad girl, aren’t I? Even you would criticize me for that if you knew everything. But know this, Gifer. I love you so much, I just don’t want you to see any other girl besides me. I thought that by harming you, you would never be able to see again, but I was wrong. That lover of yours can always get you everything, even until you get your sight back. After you got your sight back I was even more uneasy and thought of kidnapping you, taking you to New York to make love to me. But when you made love to me, you always mentioned Belvina, your lover. It actually hurt my heart, but from there I realized that you only loved Belvina, not me. I’m sorry that I’ve always made you angry to the point of reporting me to the police, but fate said otherwise. God gave me the same disease as my father, I was seriously ill from the moment before we had that hot night, even until I was pregnant I kept the baby without caring about my own health. It’s time for me to say goodbye, send my regards to Raya and Belvina as well. I’m leaving, thank you for giving me that wonderful night, I won’t regret it. You can rest easy, our child will be taken care of by Brother Kiano, I won’t demand anything from you anymore. Goodbye, Giferh, I love you.

-Nara.

After reading the letter, Gifer only tilted the corner of his seedling to the left.

“Even in that letter it’s like there’s no guilt at all. Hah….. I don’t know if I can forgive you or not, you’ve ruined my life.”

Night fell, now Belvina was lying on her bed and preparing to sleep. She had also turned off her bedroom light and replaced it with a dimly lit bed lamp. But instantly her mind remembered what Anna had said earlier in the day.

“Vin, remember when we first came to Jakarta, Gifer was the answer to all the prayers you prayed for back then. You wanted to find a girlfriend when you were in Jakarta, didn’t you? After you got her, you wanted to let her go so easily?”

That sentence was ringing in Belvina’s ears, making her unable to sleep tonight. The girl tried to sleep facing right, recalled, left was the same. Making her ruffle her hair roughly and change her position into a sitting position.

“Aissh! Why are you remembering? Oh my… I can’t even sleep.” Belvina complained, then remembered something.

“Oh yeah, instead of not being able to sleep, let’s just read a novel.” Belvina turned on the main light of her room again, picking up the collection of novels on her bookshelf. But while picking up another novel, the one she bought with Gifer that time fell down.

BRUK!

“Oh my, it fell all over.” When going to pick up the novel, Belvina found something that appeared tucked between the pages of the novel.

“What’s that?” Belvina immediately picked up the novel and saw a piece of paper tucked between the pages.

“Paper?” Belvina unfolded the paper and read it.

It doesn’t matter if you hate me, Vina. But believe me, I only love you, there is not a single girl in my heart other than you. The incident in New York with Nara was a mistake that I truly regret, I’m sorry, Vina. If you still love me, then meet me at Taman Mini Indonesia Indah around 4:30 pm. I will always wait for you here, whenever you come. -J. M

Belvina’s tears fell, wetting her cheeks and she quickly wiped them away.

“This is not the time to cry.”

The day continued to change, this morning Gifer was already in the office together with Haris but strangely, the employees and staff did not greet him as usual. Even Haris also looked indifferent and didn’t ask about work or anything else.

‘How come they don’t say hello, what’s going on?’ Gifer asked himself. Gifer was still confused by the change in attitude of everyone in his office.

‘Whatever, I don’t want to bother them too much.’ Gifer chose to be ignorant and stay focused on his work today.

.

The sun had already made its way westward, it was so unnoticeable that when it was morning work, it was suddenly afternoon and even evening. As usual, Gifer separated himself from Haris and preferred to wait for Belvina at the top of Taman Mini Indonesia Indah and sit in the park there. He continued to wait every afternoon after the incident of Belvina who preferred to go home to Kaliwungu Kendal until now.

Sitting on an elongated bench there. Enjoying the wind that struck his body, which was still clad in his office suit and jacket. He got up from his sitting position. Putting his head up, he looked at the beautiful sunset from Taman Mini Indonesia Indah.

He stretched his arms out while enjoying the wind and closed his eyes, combing his hair back, exposing his forehead. While enjoying the view, suddenly someone hugged him from behind.

Gifer was surprised, who hugged him? He thought.

“I missed you, a lot. I can’t forget you even if I go as far away as possible.” That voice, a voice that Gifer recognized. Out of curiosity, Gifer immediately turned his body back. He could see a girl with back-length black hair who was looking at him with a smile on her face. The bangs of the girl were also blown away by the wind, and it added a beautiful impression to Gifer.

“Vina?” The girl nodded.

“Don’t kill yourself again, Mr. Gifer. Do you think by killing yourself on a high place you’ll go to heaven? Of course not, you’ll end up in heaven instead.” Belvina quipped, and it successfully made Gifer laugh out loud.

“Hahahahaha, do you think I’m going to kill myself again like that time on the bridge? I’m not that stupid, baby. It’s not in a high area or plateau anyway.” Gifer said with a laugh.

“Yeah, who knew. Wait a minute, what did you call me earlier? Honey? Did I give you permission for us to get back together?”

“What did you mean by saying you missed it?”

“Yes, I just said I missed it.”

“Aissh, how evasive Mrs. Fernandez is.”

“What? Isshh, don’t embarrass me.” Belvina turned her tomato-like face away as Gifer called her by her surname. Gifer smiled at that and hugged Belvina from the front.

“I miss you a lot too, don’t go away from me again, dear.” Belvina released the hug and looked into Gifer’s eyes.

“These eyes, I really like them, because they are crescent-shaped when you smile, they are also a witness to everything. These eyes tell the story of your life. I don’t care that you had sex with Nara because it wasn’t your wish, I understand that, I can accept it. Everything has happened, just don’t repeat it again.” Belvina explained while smiling sincerely at Gifer. Her hand touched Gifer’s soft cheek.

“Yes, I won’t repeat the same mistake again. I only love you, baby. Gifer only loves Belvina.” Then they hugged again.

“Ekh ekh ekh ekh ekm, Happy Birthday!” Anggi said approaching the two of them.

TEREEETTT~

The sound of the small horn being blown was startling to Gifer of course. Belvina already knew and planned everything after knowing that Gifer often went to Namsan Tower in the evening. Belvina also remembered Gifer’s birthday which was on October 16th. Therefore, Belvina invited Anggi, all staff and employees in Gifer’s office, Mr. Kevin, Raya, and also Indra to celebrate Gifer’s birthday.

“You guys are even cool being intimate, forgetting your elders.” Mr. Kevin quipped with a smile.

“What’s this, baby? You… why is Mr. Kevin there too? Sorry, Mr. Kevin, I don’t know anything.”

“Hahaha, I’m just kidding, Gif.” Mr. Kevin replied.

“You forgot, huh? It’s your birthday, baby.”

“Oh my.” Gifer tapped his forehead.

Haris came with a cake and candles with flames on them.

“Happy birhday to you.”

“Well… well… not cool, it’s appropriate that you all didn’t greet me this morning, disperse. You guys are bad.” Gifer said while brushing his hair back, while smiling.

“Hahahaha, forgive us, Mr. Gifer we were only asked by Mrs. Belvina.” Sekar said on behalf of her fellow employees and staff.

“Honey, you are so…”

“What? Hurry up and make a wish and blow out the candles.”

“Well, it’s no wonder Haris ignored me earlier. It’s because of this, huh?”

“I’m sorry, Gif. Hahaha, this is also for your own good.”

“Wow, you guys are in cahoots, not cool, haha. Oh yeah, Raya? “Gifer called Raya. Belvina was also confused, why would her boyfriend call Raya, she thought.

“Hmm? What’s wrong, Gif?”

“Nara passed away, and she sent her regards to you.”

“What? Oh my God…” Raya said in surprise while covering her mouth with both hands.

“Seriously, Gif?” Indra asked for confirmation.

“Yes, Kiano said she was seriously ill and died, but she also apologized to me in a letter.”

“Oh my God, I hope Nara can rest in peace.” Raya said.

“Yes, I hope so, wish him the best.” Gifer said. Belvina who just found out was also surprised.

“Honey, so…”

“Yes, there’s no need to reply anymore, dear.” Gifer broke up. Belvina nodded and changed the subject so as not to talk about Nara anymore.

“Alright baby, let’s make a wish.” Gifer put his hands together and prayed then blew out the candle.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Fyuh~

“Yeayy!” Everyone shouted happily.

“Alright, since it’s my birthday, I’ll treat you guys to XXX restaurant, we’ll party there, ok?” Gifer said.

“Ok!!!” They answered in unison.

“Honey, what was your wish?”

“I just want our love to reach marriage and grow old together. I love you, Belvina.” Gifer said earnestly.

“I love you too, Gifer Fernandez.” Belvina replied with a smile that did not fade from her face. Gifer also smiled, they looked at each other.
