My Arrogant Woman's

The torturous miss

Richie breathed out a huff. If Dea had the same feelings as him. Maybe he will fight for his love by convincing his grandmother. But his love clapped one hand.

Richie was never this serious in his life when he loved someone. After the incident of her kissing Dea a few months ago, Dea always looked at her hatefully. He also often speaks to her, many times Dea continues to reject his love. And it makes Richie so sure that Dea never loved him. His love clapped one hand.

"Then what should I do, Uncle? Do I have to follow destiny?" ask Richie in despair.

"Yes, son. Following destiny in plain sight is best. Trust me everything will be fine." Uncle Gemal patted Richie's shoulder gently.

"But all this time I've never been okay, Uncle."

Gemal also felt confused looking at Richie at this moment. He could do nothing, all he could do was comfort his nephew.

"During here you should forget about your troubles, son. Come home, Uncle Arya invites Uncle to his house tonight. His adopted daughter wants to return to Indonesia" said Gemal.

Sontak makes Richie smile. If he goes to Uncle Arya's house, he'll meet Dea again. And that got him so excited.

"Alright, Uncle. I'll go home and get ready" Richie said soon.

Richie was so excited. He would not waste the opportunity to meet Dea. Luckily, Uncle Gemal is close friends with Arya.

"Son Richie, good to see you again. What about your wedding? Uncle forgot to ask her this morning when we met," asked Arya.

Uncle Gemal and his family, including Dea, Moza and Rey, are sitting in a circle on the dining table chair. A variety of dishes are served on the table.

"I postpone it, Uncle," Richie said with a faint smile. He slightly glanced at Dea who was also staring at him. For a moment their views clashed, but Dea immediately disconnected them.

"Why in retreat? Is there a problem?" ask Papa Arya.

"No, Uncle. I just want to finish the job project that I'm currently running to get it done" Richie replied. His eyes did not escape Dea.

Papa Arya just nodded at Richie's explanation about his marriage being postponed.

"Where's Aunt Rebecca, Uncle? Why didn't Auntie come to dinner?" ask Dea.

"Uncle's wife is still in Japan. Richie's grandmother was not feeling well, so she took care of him." replied Uncle Gemal.

"Dea so misses Aunt Rebecca, is Aunt Rebecca going to settle there, Uncle?" Dea asked again.

A few months ago, Rebecca visited Papa Arya's house. Rebecca had intended to match Richie with Moza, but Moza was married to Rey. So he begins to get to know Dea after Papa Arya says that Dea is his second daughter.

They are getting familiar and have the same likes. Rebecca also wanted to match her niece with Dea. However, it turns out that Richie's grandmother in Japan has paired Richie with the girl his mother has chosen for Richie. And the girl is from Japan.

The grandmother decided to have Richie settle in Japan after marriage. Rebecca could only support her mother's decision. Because the decision of her grandmother Richie is absolute and can no longer be challenged.

"No son. If you want, you can come with Uncle and Richie to Japan to visit our house there, Dea."

Dea chuckles. "No Uncle, thank you. Dea's gonna wait for Aunt Rebecca to come home. Auntie won't settle there."

"We didn't live there, Dea. Because who will settle there later is Richie. After marriage, Richie will stay there." said Uncle Gemal. Just making Dea quiet.

Richie was a little disappointed with Dea's response. Richie knew, until now Dea would never care about her. He just smiled bitterly.

After dinner, they started chatting lightly with jokes. But Uncle Gemal felt a little curious because he noticed Richie's gaze which continued to be fixed on Dea.

Dea, who realized that Richie had been watching her, immediately said goodbye to everyone to return to her room.

"Sorry everyone, I'll have to excuse you. There's a little work I need to finish. So I'm sorry."

"Son, you can finish it after you get back to the office" said Papa Arya.

"But this has to be done, Pa. Dea wants everything done on time."

"alright, son. But not too late. Papa doesn't want you to be sick."

"Yes, Pa." Dea immediately left the dining room and headed for her room. To be honest Dea just wants to avoid Richie. Being there for too long makes it a little crowded. I don't know why he felt that way when he saw Richie there.

Dea moved her feet towards the back garden. He's not really going to finish his job. Because actually her job is Celine handle entirely.

Cellphone's ringing. The call from Arsen made Dea start sliding the green button on her phone.

"Yes, what's up, Arsen ?"

"Today's the last day you're here, isn't it, Dea? Tomorrow I will also return to Indonesia."

"Then?"

"I want to take you to my friend's birthday party. Do you want to?" ask Arsen. Dea was silent for a moment. Then he agreed.

"Alright, pick me up now."

"All right, I'll pick you up." Arsen's voice sounded so happy.

Dea turned off the call. For a moment he took a long breath. Rather than seeing Richie there wouldn't it be better for him to leave?

Dea began to stand up and was about to turn her body to enter the house. But he hit the body of someone standing behind him.

"You... What are you doing here?!" ask Dea ketus. But Richie smiled at her, upsetting Dea. I don't know why seeing Richie's smile makes him so upset.

"I just want to take a walk. Is that wrong?" his reply was still staring at Dea with his smile.

Richie misses the girl in front of him. He was eager to embrace her and express the longing she had endured for months. But he was sure that Dea would definitely reject him and continue to speak harshly to him.

Richie knew Dea was like this because of his mistakes first. Richie once kissed the girl in front of him forcibly, and it made Dea hate him and stay away from him. He really regretted it. But Richie Richie's feelings for Dea are increasingly becoming.

His love is getting bigger and bigger. He had also apologized to Dea many times, but Dea was so harsh. Dea will certainly speak bitterly and harshly to him. Dea also continued to dodge from him. While Richie is increasingly tormented by the feeling of love he feels. He can't even love another girl besides Dea.
