Not Going Home?
Gifer POV
I was very happy because I was finally able to get an eye donor and undergo eye surgery smoothly even though it was not in Indonesia. I could see the world again after two years of only seeing black. Now, I can see when the sunlight starts to break through into my hospital room.
I was so happy, because the one who came up with this crazy idea was Belvina. Yes, my own girlfriend. Belvina really wanted me to be able to see again so that people wouldn’t insult me, and especially so that when I was working, I could directly face my laptop and computer screen without bothering my secretary Sekar.
When it comes to Sekar, whether or not that girl can run the meetings I usually do, I’ve left all the office business to her while she undergoes eye surgery in America. But I was confident that she would be able to handle it. After looking at the incoming sun for a long time, I turned my head towards the girl who had been smiling at me for a long time, at that time I had felt the look on her face, was she really Belvina? My lover? I had to answer when the doctor asked, I was sure she was. And sure enough, she was my lover.
“You’re Vina, aren’t you?” Belvina nodded and hugged my body.
“You recognize me, dear?” I nodded in response.
“Yes, I recognize you.”
It turns out that Belvina is a girl with a not too tall stature, her face is very beautiful in my opinion, her skin is quite white. Hmm, is it possible that Belvina uses some kind of white injection? Or using whitening cream like the ones often sold in the market? I’m so curious, I’ll ask her sometime. Belvina’s hair is jet black without any color paint, just like mine. Shortly after the doctor left after examining me, Belvina, Haris, and Anggi returned to my sickbed.
“I’m happy for you, Gif. You can finally see again.” Haris tried to start the conversation. I, who was still adjusting to my new eyes and being able to see again, immediately turned my head to the tall man with the signature square smile on his lips. Haris is still the same as before. The Haris that I knew, I always bothered him while being blind, maybe I should also return the favor to him after this because he had helped me a lot.
“Yes, Haris. I can finally see your handsome face again.” I said deliberately provoking his emotions.
“Tsk! Don’t praise me like that, we’re men, by the way,” Haris said uncomfortably hearing what I said.
Hahaha, he does like that, sometimes he doesn’t like it when he’s praised with the word ‘handsome’. Even though his face is indeed handsome, even like a prince in fairy tales because he’s so handsome. He only likes it if the ones who praise him are girls who are fans of him and like to ask him for a photo if they meet him accidentally out there.
“Hahahahaha, oh my. How could you think that, Haris!” Anggi said with her right hand that was already patting Taehyung’s shoulder and her left hand covering her mouth.
“Hahaha, already, what’s wrong with you guys?” Belvina asked.
“What are you? Don’t get involved, I’m angry!” Haris said while folding his arms across his chest.
“Well, I apologize.” I said feeling guilty for provoking his emotions.
“It’s not you Gif who should apologize.”
“Then who is it?”
“This girl next to me, her face was satisfied when I was teased like that.” Haris’ sarcasm immediately received a look of horror from Anggi.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“What did you say!”
“That’s what I said.” Haris replied as he ran out of the room.
“Haris!!! Watch out for you, I’ll guarantee you won’t be able to get away from me!” Anggi ran following the direction where Haris ran.
After Anggi and Haris left the room, suddenly there was a nurse who had delivered food for me using a pushed shelf. Belvina immediately responded by pulling the food shelf.
“Eat first, dear.” Belvina then arranged the food in front of me.
“Feed me, dear.” I said, Belvina nodded in response and began to feed me.
I’m very lucky to have a girlfriend like Belvina. Even though I always trouble her, she doesn’t complain at all. Just like Belvina, the only difference is that Belvina occupies the position of my best friend, and Belvina is my lover.
“Honey, it looks like I’m not going back to Indonesia after this.” I don’t know why I could say that, as Belvina’s eyes bulged in disbelief.
“Seriously? Why?”
“I just want to enjoy my vacation longer with new eyes, how about we go to the tourist attractions in America?” Gifer asked Belvina, but instead of Belvina answering, it was two people who had just arrived at the doorway with their breath still rushing.
“What! Tourist attractions?” They asked simultaneously and looked at each other.
“Yes, tourist attractions, are there no tourist attractions in the city of Los Angeles? Like Santa Monica Beach or something like that.”
“There are, dear. There are many, but on the condition that you recover first, then we can go there.” Belvina persuaded. I nodded in response.
“There are, we can go to playgrounds too! Especially the museum!” Anggi said.
“Yes, that’s fine too, but not in museums too, Anggi,” said Belvina smiling.
“Hehehehe, yes, just in case Gifer wants to see the monuments in the American museum.” Anggi replied. I just smiled because they were arguing about tourist attractions.
“How about going back to Jakarta? I don’t feel at home here, it’s so hot, not like in Indonesia!” Haris complained with sweat soaking his body because he was chased by Anggi earlier.
“Aissh, just once in America you already don’t feel at home. If you’ve tasted American cuisine, you’ll feel at home in America too. Never mind the weather, you won’t even care about the people around you.” Anggi’s sarcasm started to provoke Haris to argue again.
“Hahaha, never mind, because the new surgery is Gifer and he wants to go to a tourist spot, so follow me, it’s okay dear. Tomorrow we will go there if the doctor has allowed us to go home.” Belvina coaxed which made my smile even bigger.
“Thank you, dear.” I whispered in her ear.
“For?”
“Everything, you are indeed my good lover, I love you very much.”
“Hahaha, I love you too baby. Let’s eat some more.” Belvina began to feed me again until the food in the bowl was finished, yes, even though it tasted bland, but if you look at her face, let alone bland porridge, even bitter coffee will taste sweet.
“Ekhm ekhm ekm, there are whispering neighbors here.” Haris quipped.
“Geez, you’re just jealous.” I said in reply to Haris
“Yes, this human is really strange, I’m also surprised.” After saying that, Haris immediately looked at Anggi’s horror.
“What the heck, dih, that’s how you look.”
Gifer POV END
_
Raya was now serving the customers of her shop in such a friendly manner that the customers also liked it when they got good service like now.
“I’m very happy because your face has been cheerful lately. What’s wrong?” Asked her lover Indra who was also in the shop serving customers.
“I’m just satisfied that I’ve gotten a witness for the matter of Gifer’s accident last time.” Hearing Gifer’s name mentioned, obviously, made Indra immediately change his cheerful face into a gloomy one.
“Gifer again? Do you still love him? Why do you have to uncover a case that has nothing to do with you, Raya!” Snapped Indra who felt jealous.
“You don’t know anything, Indra! I was the cause of Gifer’s accident that time!”
“So what are you going to do now? Go back to him again, is that it? After getting a witness?”
“That’s not it, Indra.”
“Then what, Raya!”
“Why are you yelling at me, Indra, I just want Gifer to be left alone by Nara. Nara is a cunning girl who can harm Gifer again, I don’t have any feelings for Gifer. Even Gifer’s own girlfriend asked me to uncover this case. Understand?” Because she was in a bad mood, Raya immediately went out of her shop leaving Indra who was still confused by every word that came out of her lover’s lips.
