58. Can See Back
The atmosphere at Hope Nation Hospital is now happy because Gifer's surgery has been successful. Gifer had been moved to the hospital room. Belvina, Anggi, and Haris were already there while waiting for the doctor to open the bandages covering Gifer's eyes. Gifer had been conscious since he was moved to the hospital room and the doctor had also checked all his organs. Now Gifer was sitting on his sickbed as the doctor slowly opened the bandages on his eyes.
"Wow, why am I the one who's impatient," with excitement, Anggi was the most curious about Gifer's condition.
"Yes, I'm also impatient." Haris also replied.
"Shh, be patient, Anggi," Belvina held Anggi's shoulder until the master glanced at her with a smile, showing his white teeth. The bandages began to be unwrapped slowly, starting with the right eye first which was released from the bandage with a closed state, then the left. Opening the cotton that was still attached to both eyes.
"Try to open your eyes, Gifer," the doctor ordered.
Gifer immediately opened his eyes slowly, his first sight was the light from the sun that came in through the window of his hospital room. Adjusting himself to look around. The doctor waved his palm right in front of Gifer's eyes.
"Gif, can you see me?" The doctor asked.
Gifer tried to look at the tall man wearing a white coat and one nurse. He nodded in response.
"Yes, doctor. I can already see you," Gifer looked at the doctor who was smiling at him.
"Let's see your friends. Can you see them?" The doctor asked once again.
Gifer tried to glance at Belvina, Anggi, and Haris. The doctor tried to point out who were the people in front of him.
"Who is this?" Doctor Ricard pointed at Belvina. Gifer immediately responded well by pointing at those people.
"You, must be Belvina, right? I felt your face when we were on the beach," said Gifer which made Belvina touched, it turned out that her lover did recognize her even though she couldn't see. Belvina immediately hugged her lover's body.
"Do you recognize me, dear?"
"Yes, I can definitely recognize my boyfriend's face," Gifer pinched Belvina's nose.
"Hahahaha, guess who I am?" Anggi tried to test Gifer's eyesight.
"Of course, you're my boyfriend's friend, Anggi, right?"
"Hahaha, yes,"
"You forgot about me, Gif?" Haris with his frowning face.
"Hahaha, no, Haris. I always remember you, you are my best friend, when I was blind, you always helped me, I must have been very troublesome for you huh? Sorry," Gifer apologized to his best friend. The best friend immediately approached Gifer and hugged him.
"Hurry up and recover, then we'll go back to Indonesia and work again," Haris replied.
"Hahaha, alright." They released the hug and immediately let Gifer be examined by the doctor again.

Gifer POV
I was very happy because I was finally able to get an eye donor and undergo eye surgery smoothly although not in Indonesia but in this country, America. I could see the world again after two years of only being able to see black. Now, I can see when the sunlight starts to break through into my hospital room. I was so happy, because the one who came up with this crazy idea was Belvina.
Yes, my own girlfriend. Belvina really wanted me to be able to see again so that people wouldn't insult me, and especially so that when I was working, I could directly face my laptop and computer screen without bothering my secretary Sekar. Speaking of Sekar, whether or not that girl can run the meetings I usually do, I've left all the office business to her while undergoing eye surgery in Indonesia.
But I was confident that she would be able to handle it. After looking at the incoming sun for a long time, I turned my head towards the girl who had been smiling at me for a long time, at that time I had felt the look on her face, was she really Vina? My lover? I had to answer when the doctor asked, I was sure she was. And sure enough, she was my lover.
"You're Belvina, aren't you?" Belvina nodded and hugged my body.
"You recognize me, dear?" I nodded in response.
"Yes, I recognize you," It turned out that Belvina was a girl with a not too tall stature, her face was very beautiful in my opinion, her skin was quite fair, even almost similar to me.
Shortly after the doctor left after examining me, Belvina, Haris, and Anggi returned to my sickbed.
"I'm happy for you, Gif. You can finally see again," Haris tried to start the conversation. I, who was still adjusting to my new eyes and being able to see again, immediately turned to the tall man with the signature square smile on his lips. He was still the same as before. The Haris I knew, I always bothered him while being blind, maybe I should also return the favor to him after this because he had helped me a lot.
"Yes, Ris. Finally I can see your handsome face again," I said deliberately provoking his emotions.
"Hidih, disgusted ah. Don't praise me like that, we're men, by the way," Haris felt uncomfortable hearing what I said.
Hahaha, he's like that, sometimes he doesn't like being praised with the word 'handsome'. Even though his face is indeed handsome, even like a prince in fairy tales because he's so handsome. He only likes it if the ones who praise him are girls who are fans of him and like to ask him for a photo if they meet him accidentally out there.
"Hahahahaha, I'm laughing. How could you think that, Haris!" Anggi joked with her right hand that had patted Haris' shoulder and her left hand covering her mouth.
"Hahaha, already, what's wrong with you guys?" Belvina asked.
"What is it? Don't participate, I'm angry!" Haris put his hand on his chest.
"Alright, I apologize," I said feeling guilty for provoking his emotions.
"It's not you Gif who should apologize,"
"Then who is it?"
"Look at this girl next to me, her face was satisfied when I was teased like that," Haris quipped which immediately got a look of horror from Anggi.
"What did you say!"
"That's what I said," Haris retorted as he ran out of the room.
"Hariiiis!!! Watch out, I'll make sure you don't get away from me!" Anggi ran following the direction where Haris ran.
After Anggi and Haris left the room, suddenly there was a nurse who had delivered food for me using a pushed shelf. Belvina immediately responded by pulling the food shelf.
"Eat first, dear," she said, setting the food in front of me.
"Feed me, dear," I replied, Belvina nodded in response and began to feed me. I'm very lucky to have a lover like Belvina. Even though I always trouble her, she doesn't complain at all. Just like Haris, the only difference is that Haris is my best friend, and Belvina is my lover.
"Thank you, dear." I whispered in her ear.
"For?"
"Everything, you're such a good girlfriend, I love you so much."
"Hahaha, I love you too, baby. Let's eat some more." Belvina began to feed me again until the food in the bowl was finished, yes, even though it tasted bland, but if you look at her face, let alone bland porridge, even bitter coffee will taste sweet.
"Ekhm ekhm ekm, there are whispering neighbors here," Haris quipped.
"If you're jealous, tell me," I replied to Haris.
"Yes, this human is really strange, I'm also surprised," After saying that, Haris immediately looked at Anggi's horror.
"What the hell? Dih, that's how you look at her."
