Permission Not to Work Anymore?
At the WR bank, Ian now found two leave letters from two of his subordinates who were now in New York to pick up Gifer. The man opened the letter and read it. It was obviously not out of sight of Jhonny who was now typing in his room while looking at Ian in surprise.
“Why, Mr. Ian seems surprised to see the letter.” Asked Jhonny while not taking his eyes off his laptop, only his mouth spoke. Ian turned to Jhonny who was typing.
“Have you seen the contents of this letter?”
“No, what does it say?”
“The usual, there is an employee who did not leave today.”
“Taking leave? Isn’t that okay? Oh yeah, I’d like to take some time off too if I get the chance.” Instantly Ian’s eyes squinted at Jhonny.
“Huh? Don’t expect it, you’re the secretary, so you can’t do whatever you want.” Jhonny chuckled at that.
“Hahaha, but if there is an urgent matter, I will still take leave.” Out of curiosity, Jhonny stood up and opened the letter.
“Aishh, well, it’s up to you.”
“This is two?” Asked Jhonny while raising his eyebrows.
“Yes, you see for yourself.” Answered Ian who would now sit in his work chair.
“Belvina is… not Mr. Gifer’s girlfriend?”
“Yes, but it doesn’t need to be clarified either.” Jhonny giggled at Ian’s emotional tone, like someone who was jealous.
“Hmmm, it’s appropriate that Belvina is off work, people want to pick up her boyfriend in New York. Wasn’t Mr. Gifer kidnapped that time? The one that was on TV?”
“Well, if Mr. Gifer was kidnapped, wouldn’t there be no need for Vina to pick him up in New York?”
“Yes, who knows Belvina was asked for ransom by the kidnapper, just like in those movies.” Jhonny’s answer this time made a lot of sense, Ian immediately thought.
‘Is that really the case? Is Vina that in love with Gifer? Even anything is sacrificed for Gifer. Huh… what am I thinking? Why do I still wish to have that girl? Aisshhh.’ Ian thought.
Ian was at war with himself between his mind and heart which were very out of sync. On the one hand Ian had Belvina, but on the other hand Ian also wanted the girl to be happy even though she was not with him, but with her lover.
“Ah yes, that could be so.” Ian said flatly.
“But this, how come Anggi is also on leave?”
“They are friends, so Anggi came too.”
“Ah, Anggi is indeed a good friend.” Jhonny said with a smile.
“Don’t take Anggi, that girl belongs to Haris.” Ian said.
“Haris is Gifer’s assistant?”
“Yes, Haris is also Gifer’s best friend.”
“Oh my, they’re dating each other? Cool.” Jhonny closed his mouth in disbelief while marveling at the relationship that he thought was strange. This was the first time Jhonny knew about it.
“Yes, but if one is on leave, the other will also be on leave, making the two of them have to replace each other.”Ian said.
“Hmm, yes, but isn’t that okay? There are also many employees.”
“No problem, but still.”

At the XXX hospital, Nara has now regained consciousness after being examined by the doctor for a long time and moved to the usual ward. The girl was still wearing a nasal canula in her nose to help with her labored breathing. Nara needed the help of an oxygen cylinder as well to breathe.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“Nara, what are you feeling? Where does it hurt?” Kiano said, who was now sitting in a chair next to Nara’s bed. Nara looked up at Kiano
“Brother?”
“Yes, this is Brother.” Kiano further grasped Nara’s left arm which was free from the IV. Nara pursed her lower lip, closed her eyes briefly and tried to open them again.
“Brother, didn’t you ask why I ended up in this hospital again?” Kiano lowered his head briefly and looked back at Nara.
“I already know, Nara. I know everything, about the same illness our father had. But, why? Why didn’t you just tell me so it wouldn’t be too late? Why did you only find out about it when it was so bad that you collapsed? Why Nara? Why did you hide all this from me and keep it to yourself? It’s very painful you know.” Kiano tried to control his emotions, he was still patient with his sister.
“Because I don’t want to worry you.” Nara said.
“But precisely by your silence, it makes you worry Nara. Promise me, from now on you won’t hide anything anymore. Let me know how you feel, whether it hurts or not, and I will immediately take you to the hospital if you have more severe breathing difficulties and coughing. Tell me, tell me, don’t wait until you faint before I find out.” Kiano explained so that his sister would understand what he meant. Nara nodded, as tears rolled down her cheeks.
“Thank you, big brother. Because of you, I was able to survive until now. Yes, I promised you to tell you if anything happens to me. I’ll call you right away without waiting to lose my strength or faint first.” Nara said with a smile.
“I was just… thinking about Gifer.”
“Gifer…. again? Why?”
“No, I just wanted to tell you that when he made love to me he didn’t mention my name. Just like you said last time, he always mentions his girlfriend’s name. It makes me sick to think about it, but my love for her compelled me to go through with it until the end.” Nara looked up at the white ceiling of the hospital.
“I expected it, but you still chose that, didn’t you? Never mind, it’s all in the past, don’t think about it anymore. Just focus on healing your illness first.” Kiano’s advice to the younger brother who could now only nod in obedience to what his older brother said.

The weather was so bright, this time the group from Mr. Kevin who was sent to pick up Gifer was already on the plane for the trip home. Yes, Gifer asked to go home immediately because he didn’t want to remember the bad memories he had in New York. Gifer wanted to get to his apartment and go back to work as CEO considering Mr. George who was inviting him to work together for his company.
But all failed after Gifer was kidnapped by Nara. Gifer’s hopes were immediately dashed. In addition, Gifer was still thinking about the incident last night when he touched Nara. Gifer really regretted it and felt guilty to Belvina. Gifer kept thinking about it until now.
Belvina looked up at the white clouds that she could see from the airplane window and immediately directed her eyes to look at her Beloved who was sitting next to her, Belvina could see that Gifer was still thinking about something.
“Honey?” Belvina called. Gifer immediately realized from his reverie when Belvina called him.
“Huh?”
“What’s wrong? Why, are you still thinking about your work?” Asked Belvina guessing.
“Ah, yes, I’m thinking about it.” Belvina smiled and hugged Gifer’s left arm, resting her head there.
“Don’t worry, Haris and Mr. Kevin settled well about your business with Mr. George.” Belvina said. Gifer immediately widened his eyes in disbelief. His mood became happy.
“Re… really?” Belvina nodded.
