Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

As night fell, Belvina and Anggi were in their respective rooms on this Sunday night. Neither of them had a date with their supposedly ‘busy’ partner. It was already 21:00, which was still not too late to sleep, but the girl with the black and wavy mane was still faithfully on the balcony of her room as she gazed at the trees with green leaves highlighted by the white light of the lamp below. The girl also occasionally looked up, gazing at the moon that was now shaped like a crescent. What is commonly called a crescent moon. Looking at the crescent moon, Belvina remembered something. Yes, the eye smile that Gifer had, and that was Belvina’s favorite part of Gifer’s body. Eyes smile that could make her always excited to go through the day. Belvina also smiled remembering the crescent moon eyes that her lover displayed when smiling. Her head lowered, remembering about that.

“Oh my, how could I smile just by remembering your eyes smile, Gifer.” His monologue.

“Your eyes are very beautiful, Gifer. Even your eyes are also a witness to our love, even though at that time you were still blind, now that you can see again, surely now your eyes tell more stories of your life and mine.” Belvina continued.

“Is it because I love him too much?” Belvina asked herself while patting the air.

“Aisshh, don’t love something too much, Belvina. If you don’t want to end up sick.” Belvina said again. Instantly the atmosphere became sad as she remembered that Gifer had not contacted her until now.

“Huh… are you that busy that you forgot about me, Gifer?” Belvina’s lips were bent downwards as she leaned her hands even more against the metal of the balcony of her room.

Shortly after saying that, Belvina’s cell phone suddenly rang, so loud that it reached the outside of the narrow balcony of Belvina’s room. The cell phone displayed the name of her lover, Gifer. The telepathy between them was really strong as if there was an attraction like a magnet.

Belvina started to go inside the room and see who was calling her at this time of night. After seeing the name ‘Gifer’, Belvina immediately smiled. Finally, the news from the person she’d been waiting for came now.

“Hello, sweetheart. What’s up oh?”

“Do you have an event tomorrow or not, dear?” Gifer asked from the other side of the phone.

“Oh? No, so what?”

“I want to take you shopping, do you want?”

“What? But… what’s shopping for? We’re not married yet anyway.” Belvina wondered.

“I mean, just take a walk in the mall, who knows if there’s anything you like I’ll buy it for you.”

“But… I don’t feel good if I get bought like that, Gifer.”

“Never mind, just obey, my dear. I’ll pick you up tomorrow around 9:30, okay?”

“Aisssshh, alright.”

“By the way, how are you, sweetheart? You don’t have any problems right? With your company? Why did you just show up now huh? How wicked…” Belvina said spoiledly while advancing her lips so that her lover would notice her.

“Ah.. yes, I’m sorry, dear. I did have a lot of problems at work, tomorrow I will tell you everything. I also miss you a lot, usually we can have a date after work, yesterday we couldn’t. I’m sorry for making you wait too long.”

“Yeah but at least you can send a message, right? Anyway, let’s not talk about it. Are you eating well? Have you had dinner yet? I don’t want to see you too skinny and not paying attention to your health.”

“I have eaten, my dear. I’m not on a diet, then my beautiful girlfriend will get angry huh, hahaha. How about you?”

“I’ve eaten too, hehe.”

“Honey, switch to video call. I miss you.” Gifer asked.

“Ah, okay.”

Belvina started pressing the button with the camera image and turned on the front camera. Obviously, Belvina could immediately see the handsome face of her lover. Of course it made her misbehave and Gifer could see that clearly. Belvina was still smiling while covering her mouth with her palm.

“Why are her lips closed?” Gifer asked.

“It’s okay, baby.”

“Embarrassed? Hahaha, we’ve been kissing each other too, no need to be embarrassed, baby. Be patient, we’ll meet tomorrow. This Sunday night, let’s just sleep. Sleeping too early is no problem, right?”

“Yes, it’s okay baby. Alright, just hang up the phone, I’m going to bed.” Belvina said while positioning her body lying on the bed.

“Hehe, okay. Good night my dear, see you tomorrow.” Gifer said.

“Alright, my dear. Good night.” Belvina waved to Gifer who waved back and then pressed the red button to end the call.

As morning approached, it was already 8:30am and both Anggi and Belvina had woken up from their deep sleep. Anggi was now in the kitchen cooking breakfast while turning on the television so as not to seem lonely. Anggi frowned while looking at Belvina’s room, which had not been opened.

“Is Vina awake yet? It’s strange, she usually wakes up first even on holidays. Why is today different?” Anggi’s monologue. The girl finished cooking and brought her food to the table directly opposite the television and sat on the sofa. Eating the food she had made earlier. While she was busy eating, Anggi heard the sound of the door being opened from Belvina’s room. She turned her head toward the newly opened door.

Ceklek!

“Wow, you’re all dressed up, where are you going?” Asked Anggi who saw Belvina already dressed neatly and also her sling bag.

“Hehehe, going out with Gifer.” Belvina said showing her white teeth.

“So early?”

“Yeah no, it’s still 9:30. I have to get ready first.” Anggi nodded in understanding.

“You haven’t had breakfast yet, right? I’ve cooked, eat a little first to fill your stomach, then go.” Anggi suggested.

“Okay.”

Belvina went to the kitchen, got her breakfast and sat next to Anggi.

“Why doesn’t Haris take you for a walk?” Belvina’s question this time made Anggi choke a little.

“Uhuk!”

“What? Ahh, no. He prefers to sleep all day.” Anggi said.

“Really? Wow, Haris is too much.”

While they were talking, Belvina’s cell phone suddenly rang because of an incoming message.

Ting~

Belvina immediately checked it and it turned out to be a message from her boyfriend.

“Anggi, I’m leaving now. Gifer has already arrived.”

“Ah, okay, you guys be careful on the road.” Anggi said.

“Yes.”

Belvina immediately went downstairs and walked to Gifer’s car that was waiting in front of her apartment. They left for the place that had been planned last night.

.

Gifer and Belvina had arrived at a magnificent mall located in Jakarta of course. Gifer just wanted to take Belvina to a place that the girl had never visited before. In the mall, there was a bookstore, game center, and also a movie theater that was perfect for people to date in general.

“Wow, it’s really nice here. There’s a bookstore too?” Belvina was amazed looking around the mall.

“Yes, dear. You like reading novels, right? Just try to find a good novel, there are so many novels with very interesting genres. You can choose as much as you like, I’ll cover the cost.” Gifer said. Belvina immediately looked at Gifer seriously and widened her eyes in disbelief.

“Seriously? Yeayy, thank you, dear. You’re very kind.” Belvina said while snuggling on Gifer’s arm who messed up her hair, dear.

This time, Belvina was picking out books, even occasionally Gifer teased Belvina by hiding behind another bookshelf and Belvina looked for him. When she found him, Belvina patted Gifer’s arm in annoyance because the lover who was so annoying was always teasing her.

In the distance, there was a tall man who was now accidentally meeting with a client at the bookstore in the mall. The two people saw something they recognized.

“Isn’t that it, Mr. Gifer? Is Mr. Gifer married?” The man asked the clients in front of him. They were Mr. George and Kiano.

“Not yet, but I’m sick of seeing him making out with his girlfriend.” Mr. Kiano said.

“Why is that?” Asked Mr. George again. Since this was already touching on his personal matters, Kiano finally changed the subject.

“Ah, nothing, just don’t like it. By the way, we’re meeting here first, Mr. George. The rest later we will build a business in this mall area. That’s all, you can go home first.” Kiano broke off. Mr. George raised one eyebrow and nodded in understanding.

“Ah well, I’ll be going.” Mr. George stood up, Kiano also stood up. The two greeted each other with a slight bow. Then Mr. George left from there. After Mr. George’s departure, Kiano decided to meet Gifer who was looking at his lover from a distance.

“Gifer?” Called Kiano from the right, their current distance was about five steps. Gifer turned his head, but the sweet man was surprised by Kiano’s arrival in this mall. His forehead wrinkled, instantly several questions popped into his head. Why is Kiano here? He thought.

“What’s wrong?” Gifer asked casually while putting his hands on his chest. Kiano moved closer to him.

“Can we talk?”

“If it’s not too important, just talk here.” Gifer did not take his eyes off Belvina who was in the distance. Gifer didn’t want to look at Kiano after knowing that the one who called him was the person he hated.

“It’s about Nara, my sister.” Kiano said. Inevitably, Gifer looked at Kiano. Raising his eyebrows, he walked straight past Kiano, out of the bookstore and into the front yard of the mall.

“What’s wrong?”

“Gif, don’t you want to marry Nara?”

“Why would I marry Nara? I have a girlfriend that I’m going to marry in the near future.” Gifer said casually.

“Nara is pregnant with your child, Gif.” Gifer’s eyes widened at the shocking news.

“Wha… what?”
