Agree or disagree?
“Who are you? And what is the need for you to come here? Oh yes, please sit down first.” Asked Ian who was now sitting on the sofa in the room. The girl also sat down.
Because he never got an answer, Ian finally asked again, only this time the girl didn’t hear him. Actually, it wasn’t that she didn’t hear, but the girl was still hesitant to tell Ian the truth, because this had nothing to do with work.
“Before I explain who I am and what I’m here for, I just want to say first that this has nothing to do with work, this is outside of your work.” The girl said.
“No problem, I’m the owner of this company, so feel free to talk to me about anything if it’s important, but if it’s not that important, you’d better get out of here.” Ian replied casually.
“It’s very important, sir.”
“So tell me quickly.”
“So you see, I’m Raya.”
“Raya? Raya who? I don’t seem to recognize you.”
“Yes, you don’t know me, sir. Because we don’t know each other.”
“Then what is your purpose here? No need to beat around the bush, I don’t like it.”
“I’m Raya, the ex of Gifer, the man you saved when he got into an accident on the Kendal highway towards Jakarta.”
DEG!!!
Instantly Ian’s heart beat faster than usual. ‘What is this? Why is this Raya even discussing the accident?” Ian said to himself. Ian tried to neutralize his mind and heart that were now out of sync, as well as his racing heart knowing that Gifer was Raya’s ex.
“Then what does it have to do with me? Didn’t the accident happen a long time ago? Even a year has passed.” Ian said with a little nervousness, but he didn’t show it through his words that were still neatly arranged. Ian only reacted through his facial expression that looked like a nervous person by turning his gaze in another direction.
“That’s exactly what I want to discuss this time. Was it really you who saved Gifer that time? I want to thank you, maybe if it wasn’t for you, Gifer would already be gone, hiks.” Ian was of course surprised, how could he not be? Suddenly the girl in front of him was crying, not crocodile tears, but it was really tears of pain from Raya’s heart.
‘Does Raya still have feelings for Gifer? Why does she look so sad?” Ian thought. Raya cried while bowing her head, she also took the tissue in her bag. Don’t forget Mirza was still there and heard everything.
‘What drama is this again?’ Mr. Mirza thought.
“Why are you suddenly crying like this?”
“Hiks, I’m, I’m sorry. I was the cause of that accident, Mr. Ian. If only Gifer hadn’t received my call back then, maybe the accident wouldn’t have happened.”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
“Do you still have feelings for Gifer until now?” Raya shook her head, which meant that this was not what she was talking about.
“So here’s the story, Gifer used to love me a lot, but I didn’t love him at all, I always wanted to get out of that relationship, but my father already liked Gifer’s performance in his company, so he always forced me to stay with Gifer. Since I couldn’t accept that, that’s why I decided to carry out the plan together with Nara.”
“Nara? Seems like a familiar name to me.”
“Yes, Nara is the younger sister of Kiano’s client, the supplier of shares in Gifer’s company now. She’s been fond of Gifer for a long time too, because I wanted the relationship between me and Gifer to end soon, I decided to cooperate with Nara, but I didn’t expect to have committed such a criminal act, hiks. I regret having done that to Gifer.”
“Kiano?” Ian asked while turning his face towards Mr. Mirza who only shrugged his shoulders as if he didn’t know.
“Why are you talking to me? Didn’t I just help him? After all, Gifer is probably happy with his girlfriend by now, right?” Ian said.
Ian would not divulge what was written in Belvina and Anggi’s permission letter about Gifer who had received an eye donor from America. Belvina also asked that it should not be leaked to other Jakartans, because she was afraid that Gifer would not get the surgery anymore because he was instigated by Nara’s talk.
“Yes, I know that, and I’m already happy with my new boyfriend too. But, I just can’t bear to keep covering up the truth. Nara will always make Gifer’s life ruined even though that girl likes Gifer. Nara is a cunning girl, Nara is also the one who every time Gifer gets an eye donor but she always instigates the family of the donor until now Gifer has gotten an eye donor. Everything is Nara’s doing, but it can’t be denied that the cause of Gifer’s accident besides Nara’s plan was me.”
“Wait, wasn’t Gifer’s car hit by another car during the accident? I saw it myself, the car exploded after hitting Gifer’s car and was blown very far away from the roadblock.”
“Yes, the person in that car is Nara’s man, his name is Yohanes.” Raya put Yohanes’ picture on the table and Ian saw the face clearly, he recognized it.
DEG!!!
“T-this… isn’t this the person I met in front of Belvina’s apartment, huh.” Ian tried to remember the day when he had just dropped Belvina off at her apartment but had met this man named Yohanes who had instigated him to approach Belvina. At once Raya was surprised to hear Ian’s narration.
“What? In front of Belvina’s apartment?”
“Yes, I met him and he tried to incite me to approach Belvina, even though Belvina’s position is Gifer’s girlfriend.” Ian said.
“Well, you have to be careful with him, Mr. Ian. That man is very dangerous, he is Nara’s man.”
“But if he really is Nara’s man, why didn’t he die? When the accident happened, his car exploded earlier than the car Gifer was driving. I saw it very clearly before my eyes at that time.” Ian’s reply was still doubtful about what he saw in the photo and what Raya said.
“Well, that’s the problem, Mr. Ian. That man should be dead, right? But why is he still alive? Was the one in the car replaced with a doll before he escaped?” Asked Raya, curious about what was at the scene of the accident.
“I don’t really know. But what I do know is that when the car hit Gifer’s car, all the doors were closed tightly, so if there was someone running away before the car crashed and exploded, it would have been out of my sight, because the accident happened so fast and right in front of me.” Ian explained.
“I don’t know, I’m confused. It could be that this Yohanes really has a trick up his sleeve and has another mission to separate Belvina and Gifer’s relationship. That’s why he tried to instigate you.” Raya said thoughtfully.
“That makes sense too.”
“Actually, I just want to ask you a favor.”
“What is it?”
“Help me to uncover this case to the police, I feel sorry for Gifer who continues to be victimized by Nara’s crimes.”
Ian was still silent in his place, he was confused between agreeing or not, he actually didn’t want to get involved in Gifer’s case because he didn’t know Gifer.
