EVEN THOUGH MY WIFE IS BLIND

31. Ambassadorial Effort

The ambassador could not forget Soraya's face at all. Whatever he did, that beautiful face always teased him. He could not bear it, then decided to find Dalvin's whereabouts.

The ambassador never cared before where Dalvin was and where Rio was staying, but this time about Soraya. It really disturbed his mind. He was interested, and only this time something made him careless to become number one for his father.

"It's not who she is, and no matter how she is, I think I've fallen in love..." Gumam Duta's.

The ambassador sneaks inside Dalvin's room. He was so happy to find his stepbrother's room unlocked.

Stunned ambassador. He remembered his last action against Soraya. Guilt tickled the recesses of his heart. "It would have been better if I hadn't started the wrong introduction...."

He saw a messy bed and a wide open closet. He remembered the departure of Dalvin with anger and haste at that time.

The ambassador went around looking for something. He is very curious and hopes to get a clue to the existence of Dalvin with Soraya now.

Tired of searching, he almost gave up. He found absolutely nothing there. But as he leaned against the edge of Dalvin's bed, his eyes accidentally saw a picture of his half-brother with a man so foreign to him on the sideboard.

"It seems this man is Rio, Dalvin's best friend... Should I just ask him about the whereabouts of Dalvin and Soraya? I think he'll know where they are now..." The ambassador seemed to be thinking.

The ambassador looked at the photo closely. His forehead wrinkled when he saw the background of the photo. "As in front of the building PT. Nusa Kembangan, is it possible that he works there?"

Moments later the Ambassador came out of Dalvin's room with a sneak. He knew, even though his mother saw himself coming out of there, he would be completely flattened and asked this question.

The ambassador is not patient to wait for the time. He went straight to the location in the photo.

Once there, the Ambassador was welcomed by the director of the company PT. Nusa Kambangan's.

"It's an honor for us to have this young CEO of Fernando's group come to our office..." Director's Speech.

Without further ado, the Ambassador put down a photo of Dalvin

with Rio whom he met earlier. "I want to meet this guy... Must be an officer here, right?" He asked while pointing at Rio's image.

The director's forehead shriveled as he looked at Rio's photo. "I'll ask our staff... Wait a minute, sir..."

The director contacted the company personnel to come to his room immediately.

Not long after, the officer he called came.

"Does this guy work here?" Asked the director while pointing the image of Rio to his employees.

The officer looked carefully. "He was the deceased, sir... Until the end of his life devoted himself in this office as a marketing manager..."

"The deceased?" Duta.

"Oh, is he Rio? I almost forgot about it... His face was different..." The director said dumbfounded.

"It looks like this photo was taken a long time ago, sir... The time he just worked at this company seems..." Timpal.

"He's dead?" Ask Ambassador.

"That's right, sir... It's a pity, he died young of an illness he suffered..." The director said with a sad expression.

"Can I ask for the address? He's my stepbrother's best friend..." Pinta Ambassadors with a feeling of misgivings. He was afraid that his hopes would be in vain to be able to meet Soraya again.

"Awhile, Mister... I'll find him..."

****

The ambassador drove his car at high speed. He was increasingly impatient to meet anyone at the address in the paper given by PT employees. Nusa Kambangan.

To him, Rio was the only person who could give him information about the whereabouts of Soraya and Dalvin. But really not in accordance with his expectations, Rio turned out to have died.

The ambassador arrived in front of a minimalist house. He again matched the address listed in front of the house with the address written on a small paper in his hand.

"It looks empty, but the house is very clean... Is there maybe a family inside?" Muttered Duta while continuing to stare at the house in front of him.

A middle-aged woman passed by, and the Ambassador immediately intercepted her politely.

"Excuse me, Madam... Sorry to interrupt your time for a moment... Is this house empty?" Ask the Ambassador while pointing to the house.

"No, Mister... A couple who occupied it... If you want to find an empty house, there you'll find it..." Show the woman to the other side.

"How can't it? The occupant was a blind woman, while her husband worked day and night... That's why this house always looks lonely, sir..." The woman explained.

"Blind?"

"Yes, Sir..." The woman replied reassuring the ambassador.

"That means I'm not wrong, ma'am... This is the address I'm looking for..." The ambassador looks happy.

"I'm sorry, sir..." Pamit that woman.

"Good, Mistress... Thanks for the time..."

After the middle-aged woman passed, Duta immediately approached the minimalist house occupied by Soraya and Dalvin, the house owned by the late Rio.

On the veranda of the house, the Ambassador squeezed his own fingers. There was a terrible feeling in his heart. His originally so great desire to meet Soraya who had always troubled his heart, suddenly shrunk. He became afraid, just like the first person to fall in love.

Like not himself. He became so weak and helpless that Soraya would definitely reject his presence there.

While inside, Soraya was confused. He heard the sound of a car stopping in the yard followed by the footsteps of someone to the front door, but there was no sign of the person knocking on the door.

Soraya called Dalvin immediately. He began to feel anxious if what came was not a good person, but someone who intended evil to him.

"Why call me?" Ask Dalvin from across.

"Something seems to be coming... I'm a little uncomfortable..." Answer Soraya.

"Who?" Dalvin asked indifferently.

"I don't know either" whispered Soraya.

"Maybe next door... Ckkk I even banned it..." Decak Dalvin's upset.

Not yet had he explained anything, he instead heard a fuss across the phone as if someone was urging Dalvin to do a job. He immediately ended their phone call.

"I'm sorry, you must have had a hard time there because of my phone call..." Soraya felt guilty.

Soraya placed her phone on the sofa, then walked slowly using her cane towards the door. He was curious, but he was also terrified.

He brought his ear closer to the door, hoping to hear something more from the outside.

Outside, the Ambassador ventured to knock on the door slowly.

"Who?" Greet Soraya quickly.

"Soraya, are you inside?"

Soraya seemed to be thinking of digesting the sounds of people outside.

"Soraya, it's me, Ambassador..."

Soraya. Yes, the horrible voice he had heard was again present. He moved backwards in fear.

"Go!" He shouted while throwing a stick in his hand at the door.

"Soraya, relax... I came here to reconcile and apologize to you..." Said the Ambassador while continuing to knock on the door.

Soraya just shook her head. He tried to feel everything around him. Then he found the sofa and pulled it to the door. He seemed to hold the door so that the Ambassador could not open.

Chairs, sofas, tables and even many other objects had been piled up behind the door. Then he went into the room and locked himself in there. His body shook, he cried sobbing behind the wardrobe in the corner of the room.
