Reuniting with Lover
“I will come to pick up Gifer in New York.” Belvina decided very confidently.
Several pairs of eyes immediately focused on the girl with her hair tied back. Everyone was surprised, and Anggi was no exception. The girl even widened her eyes, still not understanding what was in Belvina’s mind.
Yes, Anggi knew, that night Belvina had also experienced a bad premonition with the breaking of her and Gifer’s photo figurine. Maybe that was also the reason why Belvina decided to do this, Anggi thought.
But what made Anggi couldn’t stop thinking was, why did Belvina have to go along with Mr. Kevin’s men? Anggi’s unanswered thought. Anggi also tried to ask his best friend.
“Vin, you… What are you saying, huh? Are you sure you’re going to New York with Mr. Kevin’s men?” Asked Anggi who was still looking at Belvina’s eyes intensely.
Belvina looked at everyone in the room who were staring at her with question marks. Including the one asked by her best friend earlier as well.
“Yes, I’m very sure, I’m having a bad feeling about Gifer and I’m getting more and more convinced that Gifer is not okay there. I just want to make sure by going there. Therefore, please allow me to go along with your men, Mr. Kevin.” Belvina begged.
Mr. Kevin massaged his forehead. The middle-aged man was confused, and he was also worried about Belvina going to New York. He was afraid of what would happen to her. Before Mr. Kevin could answer, Anggi asked Belvina another question.
“Then what about your job? Are you going to take another leave? I’m just afraid that Mr. Ian will be angry. You’ve taken a lot of leave too, right?” Belvina turned to Anggi.
“I’ll take time off, I don’t care about Mr. Ian. Even if he fires me for taking frequent leave, it doesn’t matter to me. In Jakarta there are still other jobs.” Belvina said lightly. Anggi couldn’t even fathom what Belvina was thinking.
“But… What if Kiano and Nara’s men attack you in New York? I’m just worried about that, you are your own woman there, surely they will also attack my men.” Mr. Kevin said hesitantly for fear of something happening with Belvina.
“Then send your strong men as well so that we can avoid Kiano and Nara’s attack.” Belvina’s words really sounded very serious.
Belvina really wanted to meet her lover and make sure that the man she loved was okay while in a foreign land.
“Alright if that’s what you want, I’ll send my best men to take care of you while there.” Mr. Kevin broke off.
“Then I’m coming too!” Anggi squealed confidently as well. Instantly Haris, who had been silent, widened his eyes in disagreement with Anggi’s statement. Haris now also spoke up.
“What, are you coming too? Mr. Kevin, can I come too? It’s not fair, everyone is coming, while I’m not coming myself, even though Gifer is my best friend.” Haris pleaded. Mr. Kevin chuckled at Haris’ words.
“Hahaha, you can’t come. If you join, who will run this company? You are Gifet’s only hope to keep this company going.” Mr. Kevin said. Belvina and Anggi also chuckled at that.
“Hahahaha, just say you don’t want to be away from Anggi. Didn’t you?” Guessed Belvina who was still laughing while covering her mouth with her palm.
“Yes… that’s one of the reasons.” Haris said with his lips that had moved forward.
“Hu… basic… you stay here and help Gifer’s company to remain stable. We will look for Gifer’s whereabouts until we meet him in New York. Don’t worry, I’ll be back safely.” Anggi said.
“Ekhm.. ekm..” Belvina glanced at Anggi and Haris while clearing her throat. They were both misbehaving. Mr. Kevin who saw the ridiculousness of their behavior.
“Hahaha, you guys are up to no good. Alright, tomorrow Belvina and Anggi are going to New York, you stay here, Haris.” Mr. Kevin’s decision became their last conversation before going home.
Flashback END
Anggi forbade Mr. Kevin’s men to come closer to Gifer and Belvina who were hugging.
“No, give them time to unwind and talk. Don’t disturb them.” Anggi ordered.
“Okay.” Said one of them.
Now, Gifer and Belvina were still sitting in the waiting seat at the airport in New York. They were telling stories to each other. Actually, Gifer wanted to tell them about the incident last night. But he didn’t want his girlfriend to be hurt even more after hearing that. For the time being, Gifer had to hide this matter first. Gifer held Belvina’s hand, looking at the face of his lover who was still filled with tears.
“Honey, how are you? Are you okay?” Asked Gifer who had been feeling very distant from his beloved.
“I should be the one asking you that. I’m fine, but what about you? I had a bad feeling before I came here, I always prayed that you wouldn’t get hurt.” Belvina answered with teary eyes.
Gifer shifted his gaze to another direction, biting his lower lip. The man was confused about what to say, Gifer couldn’t possibly tell the truth either. Gifer tried to smile and faced Belvina. Gifer showed his sweetest smile that Belvina liked so much, which became Belvina’s favorite so far.
“I’m fine, I’m here just fine. It’s just that…”
“It’s just what?”
“While in this country, I lived in the house that Kiano and Nara had provided. In that house I felt lonely because I couldn’t go anywhere. It was even like being locked up, very boring. Maybe if I was allowed to go out, I would call you every day, dear. I’m sorry.” Gifer said bowing his head. He regretfully felt guilty about his girlfriend. Belvina grasped Gifer’s hand even more, reassuring her lover not to feel too guilty.
“It doesn’t matter, sweetheart. The most important thing is that you’re okay here, that’s enough for me. I’m also happy because finally when I wanted to pick you up, God sent you when I arrived at the airport. This is no coincidence, this is God’s destiny.” Belvina said. Gifer raised his head to face Belvina, the man nodded in response.
“Yes, I believe that too. God wants us to be reunited, that’s why He brought me back to you here, dear. I am very grateful to God.” Belvina said smiling.
“I’m glad to hear that, dear.”

“Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk!” Nara coughed again while covering her mouth, opening the palm, there was already a lot of blood there.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Her position was still in the hotel room she stayed in last night with Gifer. After talking with Kiano, Nara asked her brother to pick her up later after she took a shower. But after Kiano’s departure from his room, the girl coughed and very clearly she saw a lot of blood there. On the palm of her hand that she used to cover her mouth. Staring at the messy mattress, she could feel the tears falling down her cheeks.
“Why does loving you hurt so much, Gifer?” Nara said while holding her increasingly tight chest.
