Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

“Don’t joke around, Yohanes!” Kiano said frantically, trying to prevent the thought that John had just uttered.

“It could be, Kiano. But that’s also what Nara wants, isn’t it?” Yohanes said. Feeling unacceptable and Nara continuing to feel nauseous, Kiano decided to end the conversation that led to pregnancy.

“Call the doctor, now!” Kiano ordered. John who understood immediately nodded his head obediently and tried to press the emergency button near Nara’s sickbed.

Soon, the doctor arrived with some of his medical equipment, ordering Kiano and Yohanes to wait outside again like before. With mixed feelings of worry and deep sadness, Kiano could not think clearly. Yohanes had not been able to say anything else after his presumption had been flatly rejected by Kiano who did not seem to believe his words.

‘Did Kiano forget about Nara who slept with Gifer a few months ago?’ Yohanes thought which he couldn’t just suppress. He was afraid that the more he spoke, the more Kiano would sarcastically respond. He preferred to keep quiet now until the doctor himself told the truth.

The doctor came out of the VIP room and tried to explain everything to the two men who were each deep in thought.

“Doctor, what about my sister? It’s not getting any worse, is it?” Kiano enthusiastically asked the doctor. The doctor shook his head. He didn’t know whether to tell Kiano with a happy or sad feeling because in reality it was not like what Kiano asked.

“As I said earlier, the tuberculosis relapsed. But the nausea is not due to the virus.” The doctor said, which clearly made Kiano frown in confusion. Trying to digest what the doctor said but still hesitant to ask.

“So what, Doc, don’t tell me…” Kiano stuttered. The doctor nodded, confirming what Kiano didn’t want to say.

“The patient is pregnant, but it is unfortunate because this pregnancy can actually make the patient even more tortured and the disease even worse.” The doctor said. As if in disbelief, Kiano shook his head.

“No way, Doc, you must have given the wrong diagnosis right?”

“No, I already checked her? Should an ultrasound be done at the gynecologist of this hospital? It doesn’t matter if you still don’t believe it. But pity the patient if she gets too much stress, it will also speed up the way to get worse with the tuberculosis virus.” The doctor said.

“Excuse me.”

Kiano was still frozen in place, still unable to accept the fact that his sister was pregnant. His knees were weak, as if he could no longer support his body until he fell on the floor. Yohanes approached him and touched his shoulder. Trying to make Kiano accept the fact that it was a risk Nara had taken on her own.

“Never mind, what did I say earlier? You don’t believe me.” Yohanes said. Kiano turned to where Yohanes was.

“Yes, you were right, Yohanes. It’s just me who can’t accept reality.” Kiano bowed his head. Biting his lip, trying to hold back the tears that were about to fall.

“It’s okay, Kiano. Nara will probably be happy to receive this news.” Kiano instantly turned to Yohanes.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“How could that be, Yohanes?”

“You don’t remember, huh, when Nara made plans to sleep with Gifer at the hotel back then?” Yohanes tried to remind Kiano of that if indeed Kiano had forgotten it. Kiano wrinkled his forehead, trying to remember the events of that time. Still in the same country as now.

“You mean, the night you met Mr. Mirza?” Kiano asked for confirmation. Yohanes nodded in response.

“Oh my, yes. Then, if it’s true that Nara is pregnant, the child she’s carrying is Gifer’s, right?”

“Yes, it is Gifer’s child.”

“But, will Gifer accept the child when Nara gives birth? Meanwhile, Gifer doesn’t like Nara himself. That night, Nara told me that Gifer only mentioned his girlfriend’s name when he had that relationship with Nara.” Namjoon said.

“Don’t get your hopes up about Gifer, Kiano. Gifer won’t admit it or even marry Nara because he still has a girlfriend.”

“Then, what should I do for Nara after this?”

“Let’s wait for Nara’s answer, let’s go inside. Nara is probably waiting inside.” Yohanes said as he helped Kiano back to his feet and staggered towards Nara’s hospital room.

On the other hand, Gifer was already working after the incident of spending the night with Nara and returning to Jakarta, although he was depressed, Gifer was now in control of his company again as usual. It had been two months since Gifer started. Starting business with people outside Indonesia such as America, England, and also Paris who came to do bisanis cooperation with him. This is a fortune for him. Mr. Kevin and Haris were also happy because of this. Gifer who they used to know was finally back again. Back cheerful and also professional at work. His company is getting more advanced and has even opened branches like WR Bank which one of the employees is Belvina, his own girlfriend. Now Gifer was alone with his girlfriend after returning from work. They were on a beach while sitting on the sand facing the sunset telling a story. Just like back then.

“Honey, how was your day? You seem very happy.” Asked Belvina who was facing Gifer. Gifer embraced his lover’s shoulder while showing his sweet smile. Even his eyes disappeared and formed like crescents. It was very cute to Belvina and made her smile as well.

“Yes, I’m definitely happy, sweetheart. I got three business clients from other countries today and it was a great honor for me to work with them. This has never happened to me before, so I’m very grateful to be at this point. We are working together to build a company branch around the Bekasi area. Of course, we will also open job vacancies for employees.” Gifer explained in detail the reason why he was so happy today. Belvina was also happy to hear it.

“Seriously? Wow, this is great news, honey. I’m happy to hear it too. I hope your company can go further so you can be like Mr. Kevin.” Belvina said.

“I will marry you, my dear. My achievements up to this point are because of you. Everything I wanted has come true. Only you can control me, control my mood, my anger, and everything in me. You can also control my thinking. You are indeed my encouragement. I love you, Belvina.” Gifer said as he held both of Belvina’s hands and kissed them. His crescent eyes looked at the smiling Belvina.

“Gifer… you…”

“I’m not joking, sweetheart.”

“But… why are you talking so impromptu? I haven’t prepared yet.” Belvina said.

“Let’s prepare together.” Gifer said.

“But before that, I want to make sure of something.” Gifer continued.

“What is it?”

“If I say something that disappoints you, will you still accept me? You told me when I was blind, that you love me for who I am. Aren’t you going to let me go after knowing a truth that disappoints you?” Gifer asked.

“Why do you say that, Gifer?”
