Looking for Belvina
It was late afternoon, and Gifer and Haris were now returning from work in the same car. They sat next to each other in the passenger seat.
“Gif, you didn’t meet Vina again did you?”
“No, I already met her at the office,”
“Ah, yes. The one lying on the bed together…” Haris’ words made Gifer give him a look of horror.
“Shh, don’t expose someone’s shame, Haris,”This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Hahahahh, yes-iya Gif. I swear, I’m really scared of your stare,”
“No need to tease, hold on, I want to call Vina first whether she is already at the apartment or not,”
“So what if she hasn’t?”
“Yes, it doesn’t matter, but I just want to make sure,”
“Oh…”
Gifer started to call Belvina, but her phone was completely inactive.
“It’s off, Ris. Maybe she’s busy. Never mind.”
“Hmm, maybe she left the apartment but didn’t bring her cell phone.”
“Makes sense too,”
“The important thing is that you have tried to contact him,” Gifer just nodded obediently.

“Vina!” The person who called her name was her best friend Anggi. After looking for Belvina together with Ian, Anggi was finally able to find her through her cell phone by tracking the location on Belvina’s cell phone. Belvina, who felt called, turned her head towards the source of the voice. Her reverie about what Raya had told her was instantly dispelled and she returned to the present.
“Vina! You’re being looked for everywhere, and you don’t even realize it. I called you earlier, but you didn’t pick up at all. Eh it turns out to be daydreaming here. Kesambet knows your taste,” Anggi began to nag Belvina. The nagged one could only smile wryly while facing Anggi. But her eyes were distracted by a man who was already standing next to Anggi, namely Ian who just stayed in his place without wanting to help Anggi at least nagging Belvina.
“Anggi, are you with Mr. Ian?” Asked Belvina surprised. Instantly they both smiled awkwardly.
“A-ah, yes. I met Anggi at the bus stop earlier. I wanted to take her home, but she asked about you.” Ian said, who immediately got a look of horror from Anggi.
Flashback
Ian and Anggi were already in the car, they were both on their way to Anggi’s apartment. In the car, the two of them were just silent without anyone wanting to start a conversation. Starting from Anggi, who is still confused by Ian’s sudden change in attitude towards him, because usually Ian will only ask about Belvina. Anggi already knew that Ian liked Belvina, but he wanted to be selfish by always chasing Ian, but unfortunately Ian only always paid attention to Belvinaa that was the reason why Anggi stayed away from Belvina and walked around with other work friends without inviting Belvina. But even so, Belvina always covered up if Anggi had invited her and she just didn’t want to. Belvina also has no hatred for Anggi even though Anggi is moving away from her little by little. Likewise with Anggi, although he stayed away from Belvina, Anggi did not hate Belvina at all. She often felt bad for Belvina when her best friend was left alone in her apartment while she was having fun with her coworkers. She still feels empty without her best friend by her side.
“Ian?”
“Yes? What’s wrong, Anggi?”
“Belvina is unreachable.”
“Where did she go?”
“I don’t know either, Ian. Belvina didn’t go to work today, she said she wanted to solve a problem with her boyfriend, his name is Gifer. She came to her boyfriend’s office and I don’t know if she has returned to the apartment or not. Even her cell phone number can’t be reached,” Anggi replied with a tinge of panic on her face. Afraid that something would happen to her friend.
“But it could be, Belvina is with her boyfriend, right?” Ian asked to make sure.
“Yes, Belvina usually goes out with her boyfriend at this hour. But my heart says it would be better if we just search first. I’m worried about her,” said Anggi.
“Let’s find her together,” Ian replied with a smile and looked at Anna for a moment and returned to driving. Anggi also smiled at Ian’s smile. When their car passed a foundation owned by Bang Martin where Gifer used to teach, Anggi asked Ian to stop first.
“Ian, please stop at the foundation in front of there, I’ll try to find it there.” Anggi asked.
“Oh? Okay.”
Ian stopped the car in front of Bang Martin’s foundation. They both got out of the car, met Bang Martin who was locking the door of the foundation.
“Excuse me, can I ask you something?” Anggi asked.
“Yes? Ah, just ask.” Said Bang Martin who was easily friendly to everyone.
“Did you see Gifer or Belvina here?”
“Gifer? Since she became CEO, I think she’s only been here once, and that was with Haris,” explained Bang Martin.
“I see, well, thank you for the information. I’ll leave first.”
Ian and Anggi immediately left the foundation, leaving Bang Martin who was still confused about what happened just now. Why did that person just ask and then leave? He thought while frowning in confusion.
On the way, Ian and Anggi were still looking for Belvina until 6 pm. Even though it was already 6 PM, Jakarta was still very bright, it felt like it was still 4 PM. On the way, Gifer tried to explain something to Anggi.
“Anggi, actually, I know who Gifer is,”
Anggi immediately turned her gaze towards Ian.
“What do you mean, Ian? Do you know Gifer?”
“No, I don’t know him. But, during the accident he was in, I was the one who saved him before the car he was riding in exploded,” Ian explained.
Anggi, who just found out about this, widened her eyes in disbelief. It turned out that Ian was indeed good, so he wanted to save Gifer in a dying position at that time.
“Be-really? Then did you take Gifer to the hospital?” Anggi asked back.
“Yes, I took him to the hospital, but after that I left him because I had a meeting with a client. I left him at the hospital, while I had to leave for a meeting in Jakarta. So I couldn’t accompany her,” Ian explained as he drove the car.
“Ian, you have to explain everything to Belvina about this.”
Ian just nodded. While he was busy talking, Anggi saw Belvina on the bridge he was currently passing.
“Ian, we stopped at that bridge, Belvina is there!” Anggi shouted, and Ian only obeyed what Anggi said.
Flasback END
“I’m sorry, because of me, you guys are having trouble looking for me,”
“It’s okay, Vin. Oh yeah, Ian said he wanted to tell you something. Earlier on the road, he told me everything. I just want him to tell you himself,” said Anggi.
Ian only nodded and was still reluctant to open his voice, before Anggi’s elbow elbowed Ian’s arm and made the master groan in pain.
“Akh! Yes-well, I’ll tell you. I just wanted to say that the person who saved Gifer when he got into an accident on the highway to Jakarta was me.” Obviously, Ian’s words greatly surprised Belvina who immediately widened her eyes in disbelief.
“What!”
