Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

As the night grew colder, the bus stopped at a bus stop close to the airport. There was a man with a black head covering and glasses so that no one would recognize him getting off the bus and starting to walk along the side of the highway which could be said to be very bright because of the lights shining on him from the right and left of the road. The man was Gifer who was looking for a pay phone to talk for a while at least with Haris was with his family.

“I have to find a pay phone, but where is it? Is there still a public phone in this day and age where everything has to be on a cell phone?” Gifer’s monologue while walking was still walking a little fast.

Afraid that there might be pickpockets or even other bad people who were stalking him from behind like the man who was kidnapped by Nara at that time. Occasionally Gifer’s head was turned towards the back. When he was sure that there was no one around, he would look back to the front. The man continued walking, and it turned out that fortuna was indeed on his side. Gifer saw a pay phone that was some distance away from the bus stop.

“Thankfully, there are still public phones in this country. I’ll try going there first, just in case it’s still usable.”

Gifer immediately entered the small room marked ‘Public Telephone’. He inserted a dollar coin and immediately dialed the number he wanted, which was Gifer’s own number.

Tut~

Gifer chewed his lower lip, afraid if he didn’t pick up the phone immediately. Occasionally Gifer bit the fingernails of his right hand frantically. Hearing that his phone was picked up, Gifer started talking. And what made the sweet man dumbfounded was… the one who picked up the phone was his own girlfriend, Belvina. It could be heard from the girl’s voice which was a little high.

“Who is it?” Belvin asked from the other side of the phone, making Gifer’s heart melt.

That voice made him miss the figure of Gifer’s lover even more. The voice that he had always wanted, the voice that Gifer always wanted to hear, especially the soothing words from Belvina. Gifer wanted to talk longer with his girlfriend like when he was in Indonesia. But how else? Fate had said otherwise, Gifer could only try to escape and carry out activities as usual back in Indonesia.

“Honey, it’s me, Gifer” After saying that, Gifer didn’t hear Belvina’s voice anymore.

Silence, that’s all Gifer heard now. There was no voice from his lover anymore. To the point that Gifer doubted whether his girlfriend hung up the phone?” Gifer also took off the receiver that he had put on his right ear. He looked at the phone for a while, then put it back and spoke. Because Belvina had not replied to his words since then.

“Honey? Why are you silent?”

“K-you… is it really Gifer?” Belvina asked hesitantly in her phone. Gifer who heard that also scooped up his face roughly.

“Yes, it’s me, dear. You don’t recognize the voice of your own lover oh?”

“It’s not that, dear. I’m just hesitating because it’s an unknown number.” Belvina said from the other side.

“Honey, it was you who found my cell phone?” Gifer asked.

“Actually it was Haris who found your cell phone, but that man gave it to me instead.”

“Thank goodness for that.”

“Honey, your mom called yesterday.” Belvina said.

“What did my mom say, honey?”

“She said she still doesn’t believe the news that you just disappeared because you were kidnapped.”

“What? How did my mom find out?”

“News, Mr. Kevin spread the news that you disappeared because you were kidnapped and shared the CCTV in your office as evidence. Therefore, all the television stations broadcasted news about you and also hoped that you would return soon.” Belvina explained. Belvina also remembered something.

“Oh yeah, where are you now, dear? Not only your mother, but I and the people who love you also miss you very much. When will you be back?”

“I’m in the country of New York, dear. You can rest assured, I’ll escape from this country soon.” Gifer broke off.

“Already, honey, I have to buy a plane ticket to go back to Indonesia.” He continued.

“Alright, take care, honey.”

“Yes, I’ll say hi to my mom if she calls back.”

“Okay, I will.”

Tut.

Gifer hung up the phone. The man only felt that someone was stalking him or even spying on him.

“I have to hurry.” Gifer looked right and left to make sure whether or not anyone was following him to the airport.

After the phone was hung up by Gifer, Belvina walked towards the apartment with a smile that did not fade from her face, Belvina also remembered what was the last message conveyed by Gifer over the phone earlier which was to convey greetings to her mother. While walking leisurely, Belvina immediately thought about Gifer’s current location. Instantly her smile disappeared.

“Gifer is currently in New York, so if he manages to get home, he will automatically arrive around tomorrow morning, right? That is if the plane is not delayed and he manages to escape. But, I’m afraid that Gifer won’t be able to escape from Nara. It’s already night, maybe Gifer can escape from Nara’s house, but will he be able to get away to the airport?” Belvina’s monologue on her way until now had entered the elevator to go to her apartment.

“Hah… get rid of your negative thoughts, Vina! Gifer can definitely escape from Nara! Positive thinking is necessary!” Belvina clenched her fist upwards to encourage herself not to be affected by the negative thoughts that were starting to haunt her.

“But, if Gifer can’t escape from Nara, then tomorrow morning I will also meet Mr. Kevin, I also have to bring Anggi. I have to tell Mr. Kevin that Gifer is in New York, that will make it easier to search together with Mr. Kevin’s reliable people to immediately catch up with Gifer. Yes, I have to be more successful than Nara. If Nara dares to kidnap Gifer, then I will take him back with my own hands!” Belvina said inside the elevator, until the elevator door had opened and arrived at her apartment floor.

Belvina immediately got out of the elevator walking towards her apartment which was now open. Instantly her mind was everywhere.

“What! Why is my apartment suddenly open?” Belvina immediately dropped her groceries to the doorway with a shocked face. She put both palms to her mouth in disbelief. Panic came over her.

The airport looked quite quiet than usual, as the late hour made people choose to stay at home instead of traveling at night. But that didn’t apply to Gifer who was currently heading towards the direction of purchasing airplane tickets. Gifer looked back, looking at the people who passed by there without anyone recognizing him. Gifer stroked his chest, calm that no one was following him. But when he turned around to go forward, Gifer bumped into the chest of a man who was taller than him.

DUGH!

BRUGH!

Gifer fell down face down but still clutching his bag. Gifer deliberately looked down so that no one would know who he was.

“Sorry, I’m sorry, it was my fault for bumping into you.” Said Gifer who was still sitting on the cold floor of the airport.

“You think you can get away with it, Gifer Fernandez?” Gifer clearly recognized the voice and raised his head up. Gifer was surprised, his eyes widened to see who he had hit earlier.
