Despising the Bachelor Chapter Seventeen
Isaac offered me a decent position in his family’s company. Apparently, he is now the CEO of Avila Corportation, one of the competitors of Kionno’s company. I don’t know why, but that made me feel a little victorious.I immediately accepted the offer because I really needed it. I’m already done with that line of work. The pay was good, but I no longer want my safety to be compromised. And now that I remembered, I could no longer feel like someone has been stalking me lately. Whoever that stalker was, he probably had stopped already. I don’t know. I don’t want to talk about it. Just the thought of it is enough to send shivers down to my spine. However, I still needed to submit the required documents, and be interviewed by the HR for formalities. I still have lacking documents so I needed to work on them as soon as I can. Isaac assured me that I’d get hired regardless so it was enough to keep me at ease. For the next few days, I spent my time gathering the documents and looking for Vi

Tears were streaming down my face as the memories came crashing down.I thought for years that I was already alright, but it looks like I’ve just been avoiding anything that would remind me of the things that happened. After all, I haven’t had any professional help ever since. I knew I need to heal from my past, but going to a psychiatrist meant additional expenses. I had no one but myself. My sister was physically there, but she wasn’t emotionally with me. I was too afraid to open up to her about the things that happened because the truth was, I was afraid of confrontations. I was afraid that she’d say it directly to my face that she blamed me for everything that happened in our family.Maybe because I also believed that a huge part of it was my fault. If only I’d listened to my dad, things would’ve turned out differently. If only Kionno and I didn’t meet…“Why’s a pretty girl crying here?” I heard a familiar voice ask before a handkerchief was handed towards my direction.I was qui

Flashback…I couldn’t believe I was capable of feeling such mixed feelings not until I saw the two likes plastered in the pregnancy test as I my grip around it was becoming tigher and tighter, as if I was afraid that if it’d fell, the ground would suck it up.I did the second one, but it was still the same results—positive. Those sudden cravings and intense irritability were not just a coincidence. After all, I was also two weeks delayed, and never in my entire life did I have a delayed period before now. The signs were all to obvious, and were clear indications that I am pregnant.“Fuck,” I cursed under my breath as I stared at the results.What went wrong? We made sure to be safe and careful to avoid situations like these. After all, I know that we’re still not ready for such responsibility.What should I do?As I reached for my phone, I could feel my hands trembling even more so I gripped it tightly for the trembling to stop. I am inside one of the mall’s cubicles because I was t

I bit my lip as I feel the hard thudding of my heart.I can feel heat radiating from his body as I stare at his face. His thick brows are furrowed, worry is evident in his eyes, and when my eyes dropped to look at his lips, I suddenly remembered those days when my lips were against his.His gaze also dropped at my lips before his jaw clenched. I could feel something inside my stomach—butterflies. No…why am I feeling butterflies at this very moment?Before I could do something that I’ll regret, I pushed him away from my body, the beating of my heart now ringing in my ears. I looked away, still feeling his gaze against my skin.“No, we have nothing to talk about,” I say with conviction as if I was also trying to convince myself.Of course that was a lie. I know very well that there are a lot of loose ends between the both of us, but does tying those ends really matter? What would even change? Would that bring back the lives that have been lost? I don’t think so.So we have nothing to t

“He’s the one from the club, right—?”“I’ll be okay, Isaac. Thank you so much for everything,” I immediately cut him off, my eyes are still plastered on Kionno who was just allowing himself get soaked in the rain.“B-But—“I looked up to him, and gave him a reassuring smile. I can already feel the hard thudding of my heart against my chest. I know very well that Kionno is just watching my every move, and I don’t know why I’m even nervous in the first place. It’s not like I’m doing anything wrong, right? And why is he even here in the first place? It’s raining, for Pete’s sake!With a defeated sigh, Isaac said, “okay, then. Call me if you need me. Here, take the umbrella.”“No,” I said firmly, my hands are already shaking. “Please just go now.”With a small voice, he replied, “okay,” before walking away.I was left standing there, getting soaked under the rain, standing face-to-face with my ex-boyfriend who was looking at me intently.I bit my lip before walking closer to him. I could

I cursed under my breath when I saw it rained, wishing it’d stop later on. How would I even go home if I’d get stuck in the rain? And it’s already dark!Gathering a deep breath, I just proceeded to prepare some soup for Isaac. The earlier I’d finish, the better.He didn’t have much in his kitchen so I just made some egg-drop soup, reheated the chicken, and prepared his medicine to drink.When I went back to the living room, I saw that he had already fallen asleep on the couch. His eyebrows were furrowed, as if in pain.I stared at him for a few seconds, not to admire him but to wonder why he was just living alone. Surely he had family, right?Sighing, I put the food on the center table before going back to the sink to make him a cold compress. I need to at least bring his temperature down.As I wait for the basin to fill with water, I can’t help but think how funny it is that before, I didn't even know how to do these things. But then I realized that I didn’t have a choice but to lear

I could still remember what happened years ago vividly inside my mind. I will never ever forget that, and I will never forget the pain that I was feeling inside my chest when I saw Kionno cheating with Beatrice. We both met Beatrice way back in college. She was a Biology major back then because I heard her family was a family of doctors. She also needed to be a doctor herself.I was the one who met her first in one of my general elective classes. She was a transferee from another campus so being the friendly girl that I was back then, I briefed her on everything she needed to know to survive in the university. We were in three classes so we would often accompany each other in-between classes.She was nice at first. She was very shy and timid—not until I introduced him to my then-boyfriend, Kionno. Things turned 180 in like a snap of a finger. She followed him everywhere, and would only agree to hangout with me if Kionno was around. Once I even caught her having Kionno’s picture as h

I woke up at three in the afternoon with my whole body aching. I grunted, got up and stretched my limbs, memories from a few hours prior slowly sinking in my mind. I almost thought that everything was a dream. Apparently, it wasn’t. I stared blankly at my wall for a few minutes, wondering what I should do. I checked my phone after to see if I had any urgent or important messages, but it was only a message from Michaela talking about the identity of the dead body thrown in the bridge. There were no messages from Vivi, either, and I don’t even know why I am still hoping that she’d have a change of heart.Sighing, I texted her saying that I wired some cash for her to spend. I am just hoping that she’s well, but after what happened last night, I feel like I knew what to do. I hovered over my contact list, realizing that I deleted that guy’s number the first time I saw it listed on the phone. “Shit,” I cussed under my breath. “Why did I even delete it? Stupid.” Now I don’t even know ho

I immediately stood up from my seat, eyes wide, still staring at the screen of my phone. It felt like someone just splashed me a gallon of cold water.Please no… God, please…I wouldn’t know what I’d do if something bad happens to her. I’d rather want it to be me at a gun point than my little sister.I didn’t have to reply to Michaela’s text because she sent another message containing the link of the newly-published article.‘I didn’t want to send this to you, especially at this hour because you might freak out. Please have some rest for now, and I’ll go with you to that location when the sun’s up,’ she added. There was no way I’d be able to rest after that news. I clicked the link, and read as much as I can to know more about the case. It was the body of a girl in her early 20s. She had nothing else with her, not even her clothes. She was just dumped on a bridge like some sort of garbage, as if she wasn’t a human being who lives her own life; as if she was some sort of an animal. H

Prologue
“Come on, no one will know it’s you!” Michaela pushed me towards the walk-in closet to change into the sultry set of clothes that she prepared for me. She was quick to close the door even before I was able to react. I let out a groan before shouting back at her, “I told you I’m not doing this!” “For the record, you agreed a while ago. You can no longer take back what you said,” she replied, which immediately made me sigh in frustration. I agreed because I thought I’d only be performing in a regular event, which usually what my gigs are about. I never knew it would be in a freaking bachelor’s party! I don’t want to dance with someone’s soon-to-be-husband! I’m a performer, not a stripper. “You’ll just be dancing to three songs, okay? Three songs for 20k! Where will you ever find a gig that will pay you that much money for three songs to dance to?” I heard her say as I was eyeing the pieces of clothing that I am holding in my hand. “You told me you need the money!” “Yes, but—“ “No
