Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

It was already 00. 00, the city of Jakarta looked increasingly quiet, only vehicles passing by at high speed filled the silence of a night. Also the street lights shone to illuminate the vehicles that would pass through the highway. A tall man wearing a thick jacket and jeans who had just returned from hanging out with his friends, left his other friend in the apartment.

When he opened the door to the apartment, there was no sound of his friend who was usually still struggling with the pen dancing on his notebook and sitting in the living room. But not this time, the quietness of the night on the street earlier, he also felt in his apartment which was already without the sound of his friend’s complaints that sometimes the contents of his thoughts did not match what he wrote. That man was Gifer who was resting by sitting on the living room chair, even though he had not found his friend’s whereabouts.

“Is he already asleep?” Haris asked softly, without thinking Haris stepped his feet into Gifer’s room which was indeed unlocked.

Ceklek!

“Why aren’t you there?” Haris wondered while scratching the back of his neck, his forehead wrinkled.

“Gif, where are you?” He tried to step towards the toilet of Gifer’s room, but no one was there.

“Where is Gifer? Did he go alone?” Haris’ eyes focused on the cell phone and stationery in the form of books and pens that were still lying on the kingsize bed in Gifer’s room.

“Gifer’s cell phone and stationery are still here, where is the person? Hah, just looking for Gifer makes me thirsty.” Grumbled Haris who immediately stepped his feet to walk to the kitchen.

When he arrived at the kitchen, how surprised he was to see Gifer who had fallen asleep at the dining table where there was alcohol. But what surprised him was not that, but there was a girl sitting opposite Gifer who apparently also drank alcohol with him, seen in front of the girl there was already an empty glass used for alcohol, just like the glass in front of Gifer. Two empty bottles of alcohol were also in front of them. Because he was curious who the girl was, as a result Haris tried to look at the girl’s face. It turned out that the girl was Gifer’s girlfriend. Haris who immediately understood then nodded with a smile.

“Oh? There’s Vina here?”

“They’ve fallen asleep at the dining table while drinking alcohol apparently. Wow, crazy, Gifer didn’t ask me to drink too. Tsk, what a bitch.” Haris said while swearing at the sleeping Gifer.

“How could the two of them fall asleep at the dining table like this. Eh? If not at the dining table where would you sleep? How about on the bed? You’ll think I’ve done something right again.” Haris continued while giggling amusedly at the thought of his best friend sleeping in the same room with Belvina like that.

Haris’ giggling instantly woke up one of them. Because she was still under the influence of alcohol, the girl woke up with one hand holding her head, her forehead wrinkled, trying to neutralize the light that entered through her cornea, her lips were also wrinkled feeling the pain that hit her head, like being hit by a new big, her head was so dizzy, it was the first time she drank alcohol in Jakarta.

In her own village, Belvina did not drink alcohol at all, because she thought alcohol was not good for health, but when she saw her lover drinking alcohol when her mind could not compromise with her heart, she also wanted to try to challenge his guts and as a result she was already drunk before Gifer. When he regained consciousness, he saw Haris in front of him who was silent while pouring water in a glass and drinking it. Taking the water again which was handed to Belvina.

“Drink this, to ease your hangover.” As if he knew, Haris handed the glass to Belvina. The girl immediately accepted it and drank it.

“Thank you, Haris.”

“What’s wrong? Why are you drinking alcohol with Gifer? Is there a problem? Usually when people drink alcohol, if they’re not celebrating a victory, it’s because they have a lot of problems. I don’t want to know your problem, but if it’s about Gifer, be happy with me, I’ll help you find a solution.” Haris’ advice.

“Yes, I really have a lot of problems, about Gifer, I wanted to tell it to Gifer directly, but I don’t think this is the right time to tell him directly.” Belvina replied who then looked at the tired face of Gifer who was still asleep on the table as his pillow.

“Before I tell you everything, can I ask for your help to move Gifer to his room?” Belvina asked, Haris nodded in response.

“Alright, it’s a pity if the duckling is still sleeping here.” Haris said with a smile, Belvina also smiled.

They both carried Gifer by putting Gifer’s arm on their shoulders. The one being carried did not wake up from his sleep. Even though he woke up, Gifer couldn’t see anything but darkness. They had arrived at Gifer’s room.

“You stay here first, I’ll get rid of the pens and books on the bed first.”

“Ah, yes.” Haris immediately removed Gifer’s arm from his shoulder and moved the stationery to the study table in the room then picked Gifer up again and put him to sleep on the big bed. Covering him properly, Belvina and Haris left Gifer’s room and walked to the living room sofa and sat there.

“What are you going to tell me about?”

“It’s about Gifer’s accident.”

“What do you mean? The cause of Gifer’s accident? Didn’t the person who hit Gifer die at that time?” Haris asked curiously, because Gifer only told him that the person who hit him was already dead.

“I don’t really know about that, all I know is about the mastermind behind Gifer’s accident and the person who spread the photo of Gifer and Raya.” Belvina tried to explain to Haris.

“Who is it? I’m also very curious and will ask Gifer to put him in jail.” Haris said angrily. How dare that person make his best friend harmed to the point of blindness? If it was a man, he would definitely ask for a fight, but if it was a woman, it should be reported to the prison immediately. Because this was already a crime.

“It’s useless, Haris. We don’t have strong evidence for that yet.” Belvina replied.

“Therefore, we must gather evidence, Vina. Who is that person?”

“That person is Nara.”

“Nara? You mean, Kiano’s client’s sister?”

“Yes, Haris.”

“I suspected it from the start, it must be that girl, I once threw her out of the office because she tried to harass Gifer back then.”

“I knew about that too.” Haris’ eyes widened in surprise.

“Where did you know about it?”

“Raya.”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
