Being Proposed to By a Blind CEO

Sometimes, fate always plays tricks on innocent people, or is it really the person who is guilty that fate plays tricks on him?

The rays of the sun were still peeking through the thickening white clouds. The black sky changed its color and began to show its bright blue color, as well as the birds flying around making the atmosphere up there look even more beautiful. Chickens began to crow and run here and there indicating that it was morning, making a man with narrow eyes like a crescent moon, a small but sharp nose, about 174cm tall wake up from his sleep.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Feeling around to go to the toilet for a while, fulfilling the call of nature, washing his face, and preparing to leave the apartment. His goal this time was to go jogging in the morning. Yes, just because she can’t see doesn’t mean her body can’t exercise, right? His clean, white skin was clad in a purple hoodie with the words ‘You Never Walk Alone’ printed on the back of the hoodie and black training pants with white piping from the famous brand fi**.

The man came out of the toilet while feeling the wall of the apartment until he reached the large glass in his room. Although he couldn’t see, he could feel which one was still a wall and which one was glass, through the texture of the solid object itself. She stood in front of the glass while thinking about something.

“Should I continue living a life that keeps playing tricks on me? Huh, fine. I will survive, for the sake of the people I love. Fighting to my self!” Gifer tried to encourage himself. After that, he searched again for his blind stick and found it. He immediately walked out of the room, fumbled around again to get to Taehyung’s room, knocked on the solid rectangular object made of wood.

“Haris! Are you awake yet? Let’s go jogging!” He shouted in front of the closed door. Since her friend did not make a sound or reply to her question, she took the initiative to leave her friend again like yesterday.

“Alright, Ris. I’ll go, don’t look for me!”

“Aishh, I feel like talking to the door. I don’t care, just leave him alone. He’s still late anyway.”

Gifer started to walk out of the apartment door and went downstairs using the elevator. The elevator door opened, he walked using his cane. He didn’t know where he was going, anyway his destination was jogging or running in the morning. He started trying to move his legs to run along with the stick he was carrying so he wouldn’t trip.

On the 5th floor apartment, number 06, there were two girls who were preparing to wear a tosca green shirt and a short knee-length skirt to go to work. But both of them were now being excited about a missing item.

“Anggi, have you seen my watch?” Asked Belvina who had just come out of her apartment room to the living room where Anggi was already there wearing her socks and high heels.

“No, so what, Vin?” Anggi asked back, confused by the disappearance of Belvina’s watch.

“Oh no! My watch is gone, Anggi!”

“Seriously?” Anggi asked again while walking towards Belvina’s room.

“Yes, seriously. Here, I usually keep it on the nightstand in my room, but look at it now? It’s not there at all, right?” Belvina showed her room that there was absolutely nothing on the nightstand that she was looking for.

“Try to remember again, where did it fall yesterday?” Belvina thought and recalled an embarrassing incident she experienced yesterday afternoon together with Gifer. The blind man who she found very annoying.

“Oh yeah, I remember. I think my watch fell in the library yesterday,” Belvina was still trying to remember. Meanwhile, Anggi’s forehead was already wrinkled.

“How come?”

“So, yesterday I fell while picking up a romance novel located on the top shelf and hit a blind man who was almost hit by a car,” Anggi’s eyes widened at that.

“Huh? You mean Gifer Fernandez? The rich and handsome CEO?” Anggi asked.

“Ex, to be more precise,” said Belvina.

“Uh how come you know?”

“Yes, he told me himself.”

“You know each other? How come he dared to tell you about his problem?”

“No, we just met, and I don’t know why he suddenly told me about his problem,” explained Belvina. Anggi was only happy because he didn’t know what Belvina was experiencing until she met the former CEO, Gifer Fernandez.

“Then what does that have to do with your missing watch?” Anggi couldn’t understand Belvina’s attitude of blaming people.

“I was thinking, maybe he took my watch. Even though it’s a cheap watch, it’s still very important to me while it can still be used. Eh, now it’s just gone. I’m sure, it must have been him who took my watch,” Belvina didn’t know where she got the thought, but she still blamed Gifer for losing her watch.

“Don’t just accuse people without evidence, Vina. After all, how could the ex-CEO instantly steal your ratty watch. It seems like an impossible thing,” Anggi advised with a face that seemed to portray disbelief.

“Hah… yes, too. But he’s so annoying, you know! He could have been deliberately hiding it to get revenge on me.”

“Revenge how do you mean, Vin?”

“Well, revenge because yesterday I prevented him from committing suicide in that steep river.”

Anggi’s eyes immediately bulged in disbelief and turned his gaze towards Belvina who was sitting next to him while carrying her work bag.

“What? Really? The former CEO wanted to kill himself?” Taya Anggi confirmed. She still couldn’t believe that Gifer Fernandez would do such a crazy thing.

“Yes, that’s why who knows if he has a grudge against me, because he already dared to threaten me at the library yesterday. You guys are very, very annoying, you know!”

“What did he threaten?”

“There’s something,”

“Well, Vin, just let it go. If necessary, we’ll just buy a new one,” said Anggi casually, the more he responded to his best friend, the later they both didn’t go to work, he thought.

“Let’s go, it’s already 6:15. The trip will be long,” Anggi continued.

“Ah, yes too. I’ll put on my shoes first, it’s okay if you go out first, Gi,” as if she didn’t want to wait too long in the apartment, Belvina asked Anggi to go out first.

“Ok, ready!” Anggi walked out of the apartment first leaving Belvina still thinking.

“Huh … I hope you don’t meet that annoying guy again today, amen.” Belvina said silently, in order not to meet Gifer again. The man who Belvina found very annoying.
