Transmigration to a 17-Year-Old Girl
Chapters 10. The Riko family

Before the arrival of Riko's family, Ms. Mira had already made preparations. A variety of dishes that are somewhat special have been made, to give a good impression for their families.

While Risha is busy to the salon to change her appearance to look more attractive. He does the whole body treatment, so that the skin of his body looks smooth and soft, as soft as the baby's skin.

Different from Bella. He who no longer cared about the arrival of the Riko family, was busy preparing for group duties. The task he will discuss with Vivi and Rangga tomorrow after school.

Neither Mira nor Risha informed Bella of Riko's family's arrival.

On the afternoon, Bella gets a phone call from Rangga. Rangga invites Bella to accompany him to the mall to look for gifts for his nephew's birthday. This is Bella's chance to avoid meeting Riko and her family.

Bella knows, with not being told the arrival of Riko and her family to Bella, it means that her stepmother hopes Bella does not meet them.

Before Bella said goodbye to her stepmother, Ms. Mira had first asked her to go to Vivi's house. Ms. Mira said that tonight, Risha will receive a proposal. Mira doesn't want Bella's presence to ruin Risha's happiness.

It's too bad that Miss Mira lied to Bella, but Bella wants to make Ms. Mira not suspect her if Bella already knows who exactly the guest is coming tonight.

"Bella, you just stayed at Vivi's house last night. Bring your school uniform and the books you need for tomorrow. So you don't have to go home and take it again" said Ms. Mira, begging a little.

"good. Bella will go to Vivi's house as she wishes" Bella replied with a smile.

Bella leaves for Vivi's house, carrying some of the things Bella had prepared in her school bag. Bella goes on her motorcycle ride to Vivi's house.

Bella stops at a cafe because there is an appointment with Vivi and Rangga there. As Bella searches for a parking space, from the other direction a car that has suddenly parked in the place where Bella was headed. Bella braked her motor suddenly until she almost fell.

Bella looked upset. He got off his bike and approached the owner of the car who had just got out of his car.

"Hi, why take someone else's parking lot? Is it because you brought a car and I only brought a motorcycle?" ask Bella emotions.

"Calm down, I don't know if you intend to park here either. But I'm the one who parked first?" answer the man.

"Your car is blocking my bike, thankfully I didn't fall" Bella said.

"Then I'm sorry. I'll find another parking lot nearby, but it's hard, too" said the man again.

"Yes, this parking lot is for you. It is easier to find a parking space than a car. I'll park here, if you want to go, just tell me" Bella said as she pushed her bike near the car. Meanwhile, the man had already entered.

Let's just say the parking lot is confused. Seeing her bike out of place, Bella's inner.

Bella came in to find a seat, but this afternoon the cafe was full. His eyes swept across the room, then stopped at the figure of the man who had been fighting for parking with him earlier. He seemed to be alone and seemed to be able for him to make use of it.

"Excuse me, you're alone, right?" ask Bella kindly. The man's answer simply nodded.

"Good indeed. This place is full, and I have an appointment with my friends at this cafe. Pinjem's for a minute, huh?" bella asked as she looked at the gentleman. Again, the man's answer was just a nod.

"Thank you" Bella replied happily.

Bella rushed to sit down and ordered 3 glasses of juice for Rangga and Vivi, who happened to have not arrived.

Not long after, Vivi and Rangga were welcomed by Bella to join her. At first, Rangga and Vivi were shocked to see Bella sitting with a man. After Bella explained, they ended up laughing together.

During their conversation, Bella does not realize that Rangga continues to pay attention to Bella and is caught by the man. Rangga felt ashamed of himself and asked Bella not to be careless with strangers.

"I'm the one who asked to sit here because this place was full. It's pretty good, rather than no seat. Isn't that right, Om?" bella asked with a sweet smile.

The man just smiled and nodded. Then casually drink the coffee of his order.

"Bella, these days, that Om-om likes young leaves. The man who will be betrothed to you is also old. Can you refuse it? Your future is long. Many men of your age will want to marry you," Rangga said as if to signal that the man was her.

"Marrying someone older has many advantages. Besides for sure he is well established, he will be able to be the most comfortable place for his wife," replied the man who felt insinuated.

"That's right, Bell. So you shouldn't have to avoid your matchmaking" Vivi said as she looked at her best friend.

"Vi, who are you defending? You should have supported me, "Rangga said slowly to Vivi.

"But you don't dare to express your love to Bella. How can I support you in competing with that guy?" vivi replied half-whispering while sighing.

"What love, Vi? You love me, Rangga?" ask Bella who made everyone there shocked. They did not expect that Bella would easily ask such a question.

"A-I ...," replied Rangga nervously.

"Of course, if it's love, it's not papa. Love belongs to everyone. Nor can we choose who we fall in love with. I appreciate it, even though I am now focused on my goals. Maybe one day, I'll accept you" Bella said with a smile.

Bella, did Bella ever love Rangga? inner Bella.

Interesting also this little girl, if that girl was the girl I was betrothed to, it was possible that I would accept it with pleasure, the inner man.

***

Later that night, Riko's family arrives. They apparently just came from abroad and will be in Indonesia for one week only. Riko, however, is still unclear about his plans.

Riko's family arrives to say condolences as well as to discuss Riko and Bella's engagement plan.

"Sorry sir, Mom. After my husband died, I think this matchmaking was canceled," said Ms. Mira seriously.

"Why, Mom? Precisely even after Genta died, the matchmaking became a will for us. So this matchmaking must continue" Teddy said.

"Actually, I feel sorry for your son. Bella, the girl doesn't know the rules. Just look, when her future husband came, she went somewhere. No manners," said Bu Mira lying to make Riko's family withdraw from the matchmaking.

"It's okay, he's still very young. There's still plenty of time to guide her into being a good girl" replied Mr. Teddy.

"But Pa, I don't want to have a bad girl's daughter-in-law. Mama does not like to be denied the same daughter-in-law," said Bu Yeti with a frown.

However, Mr. Teddy did not listen to his wife. She hopes to meet Bella before the engagement. So there will be time for Riko and Bella to get to know each other more closely. Mr. Teddy also hopes that this engagement event can be done before they return abroad.

Riko was silent. He wanted to see for himself, what kind of girl he was betrothed to. Still High School, definitely still cute and funny. Riko also wants to see what his future wife looks like.

Bu Mira and Risha are upset that Risha's efforts attract the attention of Riko's family and also Riko himself does not succeed. They did not care about Risha.

While they are engrossed in chatting, Bella comes up with her blasphemous style. His whimpering style and disrespectful style.

"Are there guests?" bella pretends not to know if Riko's family has come to confirm their engagement plans.
