Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

The fallen tabebuya trees make anyone who sees them want to get underneath them so they can enjoy what looks like a rain of tabebuya flowers. Just like these two girls who had just returned from work did. Even though they’ve been in Jakarta for almost three years, this is still the season they’ve been waiting for the most. But don’t worry, even so, they still remember their families by occasionally returning to their respective hometowns even if it’s only once a year or twice a year. They were Belvina and Anggi who were at a park after finishing work. Releasing the fatigue that the two girls had been feeling when they were in the office all day. Spinning around enjoying the beauty of each tabebuya petal that fell on the girls’ hair and body. Feeling tired, they sat down on an elongated park bench under the huge tabebuya tree that was constantly scattering the falling petals.

“Gi, I want to know something.”

“What is it?”

“You and Haris, are you really dating?” Asked Belvina, Anggi nodded confidently with his answer.

“Yes, I am dating Haris.”

“Since when?”

“When we went to the bridge to watch the sunset. But, before that, we’ve also been exchanging messages a lot and there’s been a feeling too, hehehhe.” That immediately made Belvina laugh as she gently rubbed Anggi’s arm.

“It’s you, Gi. When we took Gifer for her eye surgery, you were so pretentious that you didn’t want to be matched, let alone with Haris. Eh, you fell for your own words, didn’t you? Hahahahahaha. So be careful Gi if you say something, it will come true, hahahaha.” Belvina laughed with satisfaction because her best friend finally admitted that she had feelings for Haris, even though it was not during the trip to America when she took Gifer for eye surgery.

“Oh yeah, then how do you feel about Mr. Ian?”

“Ah, Mr. Ian yes. That man is indeed handsome, manly, and also kind. But…” Anggi deliberately paused her sentence.

“What, what about Mr. Ian? I also feel that Mr. Ian is just like that, handsome, manly, and kind. What don’t you like about Mr. Ian? I thought at that time you preferred Mr. Ian to Haris. Because at that time you didn’t seem to be interested in Haris.” Belvina replied.

“Mr. Ian doesn’t like me, Vina. And as I pursued Mr. Ian more and more, I felt like I was fighting alone.” Anggi bowed his head before finally facing Belvina who was sitting on his right.

“You know, Vin, what hurts even more?” Anggi asked. Belvina was still thinking while frowning seriously.

“What is it?” Belvina asked back.

“Mr. Ian likes you, Vin.” Instantly Belvina widened both eyeballs in disbelief.

Actually Belvina also knew from the beginning even from Ian’s gestures that Ian really liked her. Even openly Ian had also said it to Belvina. But, Belvina rejected Ian because she valued and loved Gifer more even though he was blind at that time.

“Yes, I already know, Anggi.” Another surprising and new thing Anggi knew certainly made the girl look a little suspiciously at Belvina. How could her best friend not tell her that she already knew about Ian liking her? Anggi thought.

“Really? Why didn’t you tell me oh? Why did you keep quiet, Vin?”

“Yes because, I rejected him, Anggi.”

“Refused? What do you mean?”

“At that time, I was going home alone, you were at the mall with work friends. Ian offered to take me home in his sports car. We were talking in the car and Ian told me that he liked me. I told him that I already had a boyfriend and that I loved him very much even though he wasn’t perfect because he was blind. Then Ian seemed disappointed to hear my explanation, and slowly moved away from me. I also understand that you like Ian, Anggi. That’s why I gave you an opening to approach him.” Belvina explained which made Anggi think a little.

“But Vin, Mr. Ian has no feelings for me at all. How could I, as the woman, approach him first? Isn’t it usually the woman’s nature to be pursued? Not chase? It’s a man’s job to chase, not a woman’s. I thought so and tried to apply it and it turned out that Ian didn’t chase me at all. I was tired of Vin chasing me but there was still no clarity between our relationship. Until finally you and Gifer invited me to America to accompany Gifer for eye surgery. Even though Haris often messed with me, he turned out to be a good person. I can judge it from the attitude Haris showed me. And Haris also has signs of wanting to always be close to me despite his annoying behavior. That’s why we’re together now.” Anggi clearly smiled when telling about Haris. As for Ian earlier, Anggi’s face was very gloomy because the girl felt that there was no self-respect if a woman pursued a man’s love too much.

“Ah, so you actually like it when Gifer and I match you guys up? Come on… answer honestly, Gi. Hahahaha.” Belvina teased while pointing her index finger at Anggi who was getting even more mischievous if she remembered that again.

“Yes… indeed. But I didn’t show it. I’m just afraid that Haris will have an ill-feel for me, I’m afraid he’ll be like Ian, who the more I chase the further away he gets.”

“Wait, why is that like a song lyric?”

“Hahahaha, yes. Just realized, hahahaha. That’s how life is, sometimes it’s like the lyrics of a song, Vin.”

“Hahahaha, you’ve got something going on, Gi.”

On the other hand, Gifer and Haris had already returned to the apartment. They went home and entered their respective rooms. Either they chose to go straight to bed or some even chose to clean themselves. But Gifer this time lay down on his king-size bed. Gifer tried to close his eyes and enjoy his dream. But before that, something was disturbing his mind. Instantly Gifer opened his eyes again.

“Who is that Nova? Why does she look familiar to me? Have we met before? Yes, we did meet at the foundation, but have Nova and I met before? That girl looks very young. I don’t know why because of the effect of too much thought, even the problem with Mr. Kevin when the incident happened yesterday was not over and made me dizzy. Let alone this? Nova’s appearance made me dizzy too because it was like I knew her before I met her at the foundation. I don’t know, it makes me even more dizzy.” Gifer grumbled while rubbing his face roughly and massaging his forehead.

“Hah… I’d better take a shower.” Gifer continued.

When he was about to take a towel and prepare to go to the toilet, Gifer’s cell phone rang. Gifer immediately picked it up from the nightstand and picked up the phone.

“Hello, Naufal. How is the investigation going? Have you found any evidence?”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“Yes, Gif. We have found the evidence. Although not with CCTV, but there is other evidence that is more accurate.”

“Alright, I’ll see you tomorrow to discuss this. Thank you for your help, Naufal.”

The phone was hung up, Gifer began to smile victoriously, like he had won a competition.

“Everything will be revealed, Nara. I’ll guarantee you life in prison!” Gifer tightened his grip on his cell phone with a look on his face that really looked like an angry person because he already knew this was Nara’s doing.
