EVEN THOUGH MY WIFE IS BLIND

45. Let Me Stay Blind

Dalvin looked at Soraya from outside. He was so upset with him, leaving the hand of the Ambassador who was held by his wife at the time of the bandage that wrapped his wife's eyes was to be opened by the Doctor.

"I should have been there, watching your big smile when you could see the light again... It should be my face that is your first gaze after a long time you are in the dark, right, Sora...? But due to my own stupidity, I let the Ambassador be there... I'm sorry, Sora..." Dalvin was sad.

The bandages had been completely exposed, Soraya's beautiful face with a hopeful smile on her face. He has not dared to open both eyelids, while his hand continues to hold the hand of the Ambassador tightly.

"Try to open Miss's eyes slowly..." Doctor's Order.

At his side, Dalvin tries to put his ego aside. He also seemed to hope that corneal transplant surgery on Soraya was successful.

Soraya moved her eyelids slowly, a beam of light made her smile. He further tightened his hand in the hands of the Ambassador.

Slowly, he opened his eyes. He caught a glimpse of someone's face behind the door, and then the person disappeared. Soraya's heart was racing, she turned her gaze to her interlocking hands.

"Falvin..." Call Soraya so moved to look at the face of someone who was in front of him.

She immediately embraced the man who was actually her husband's half-sister, and she was completely unaware of it.

"Thank you, Vin... Today I'm happy, because I can see again..." Soraya rasak.

Ambassador's hand stroked Soraya's back gently, nodding at Soraya's happy words.

Soraya is still not aware that the man she hugged was not Dalvin, but the Ambassador who once wanted to do evil to her.

He broke his embrace, while both hands flanked the Duta cheek. Soraya suddenly looked confused. He continued to touch the face of the Ambassador with an uncertain feeling.

"Why, sora?"

Like being struck by lightning, Soraya was so shocked when she heard the Ambassador's voice. He closed his eyes and re-groped Duta's face to confirm his suspicions.

Soraya opened her eyes wide, "you?"

Soraya insinuated herself from before the Ambassador. "What do you need here? Where's Dalvin?"

Soraya's getting windy. He felt fooled by the Ambassador.

"Relax, Sora... I'll explain everything..." Said the Ambassador trying to calm Soraya who was ignited by emotions.

The ambassador gave the doctor a code so they would leave him and Soraya alone.

Soraya's crying. He came down from the gurney looking for Dalvin.

The ambassador immediately probably held him down and pulled his arm. "Dalvin's gone, Sora..."

"Then what right do you have to be here, and act as if you were my husband Dalvin?" Shouted Soraya wrathfully while stomping roughly at the Ambassador's hand.

"I was just told, Sora... He had no money, and he asked me to pay all the hospital fees..." The ambassador lied.

"Don't make you...!" Bengis Soraya did not believe the Ambassador's explanation.

"Dalvin just feels indebted to you, Sora... That's why he helped you all this time... And in his heart there was only Amira, the girl he loved long ago..." The ambassador tried to convince Soraya.

Soraya shook her head, her tears had flowed from trying not to believe the Ambassador's words. "Don't make things up... Although Dalvin is cold sometimes, but I can feel his love for me..."

Soraya ran outside the hospital and then looked for a taxi.

"White Pigeon Street number 9B..." Soraya said to the taxi driver she was riding in.

Soraya arrived in front of the house that almost a year he lived with Dalvin. She did not believe the minimalist house in front of her was where she lived with Dalvin, her husband whom she had never seen her face.

Soraya walked slowly into the gate of the house, then inhaled the scent of the house she used to do every morning. He smiled, The same smell, though not in the morning.

Suddenly Soraya was stunned. The ambassador's words really disturbed his mind. He then quickly nodded in disbelief.

"We'll meet inside, won't we, Vin?" Soraya said she believed herself.

He closed his eyes, remembering the first time Dalvin led him inside while instructing each step of his foot.

Soraya smiled again, the shadow felt real to her. His hand seemed to feel the grip of Dalvin's hand, and the figure of Dalvin was at his side.

"Until..." The highlight was so happy, then swung the door handle that turned out to be completely unlocked.

"Viii..." Call Soraya while opening her eyes. "Vin, you're inside, right?"

Soraya continued walking while recalling the details of each of Dalvin's instructions.

"Vin, where are you?" Soraya called her husband's name again. There was no reply at all, Soraya walked towards the kitchen.

The house is so neat and clean, making it feel comfortable and calm. He went around enjoying the atmosphere of the house, until he forgot about Dalvin for a moment.

Soraya returned to the living room, opening the curtains that Dalvin had closed before they went to the hospital. Suddenly Soraya's heart throbbed with pain. Her memory returned to her husband.

Soraya turned around, smiling as she looked at the door of the room right in front of her. He immediately ran to the door and opened it. "Viii..."

Soraya again swallowed disappointment. Dalvin's not everywhere in that house. Only the fragrance of Dalvin's perfume remained, making his heart ache even more.

Soraya berjalan kearah tempat tidur, lalu duduk di bagian tepinya. Ia meraba tempat tidur itu di sekitarnya, lalu mengingat momen setiap kali bersama Dalvin di tempat tidur itu. Air matanya mulai mengalir kembali.

He took out Dalvin's mobile phone from the mini bag he was holding, then with his eyes closed dialed Dalvin's number.

A few times calling, Dalvin finally picked up his phone.

"Your promise, no matter what happens you will never leave me... You said I'm your wife and forever yours... And you also made it clear that you would never leave me even though I could see again, you promised to keep protecting me, Vin..." Soraya. He squeezed the bed sheet as hard as he could, then cried bitterly.

"Let me remain blind..." Shouted Soraya until she coughed to endure the pain of her heart.

"Go home, Vin, island... I miss..." Soraya's cry became more and more so.

"I know this isn't true... I know the Ambassador is evil, and you've been waiting for that... I believe all your words... And I trust you, more than I trust myself..." Said Soraya trying to persuade and convince Dalvin who just stayed on the other side.

"The Vin... Please talk, please convince me that you actually never left, and you will definitely come back..." Pinta Soraya pleaded.

Soraya fell silent. He looked at the screen of his phone, and it turned out that Dalvin had turned it off unilaterally.
