Chapter 12 - I must see her tonight
"What is the problem, Matilda, I was just trying to understand everything we are discussing," I tried to lie.
"That's not true, she replied accusingly. No matter what you have on your plate, you always get a grip on yourself". She was right I never drip off in a meeting no matter the problems around me. "You always take promt decisions that always turn out well and besides, you never call me Matilda because you said it was old fashion." She ended angrily.
"Trust me Matilda, I was thinking about what we were discussing," I tried to defend myself .
"Please excuse me gentleman," she said dismissing our bankers. I know you very well Mark, and don't take me for a fool," she continued as the bankers left. Did you even ask me how I got to know where you were? I heard your voice from afar when I excused myself from the meeting to get a drink. I turned around and couldn't see you and when I asked them, they said you had gone the other way towards the garden.

Despised at First Sight Chapter 13 - Please, forgive me
The look on her face made me feel more guilty. I have totally turned her into a scared little thing. If I had not treated her the way I did this past few days, she would have perhaps given me a concerned look or even a loving smile. But all I could see was fear and a means of escape. "I am very sorry," I managed to say. I just want to talk please. Just listen to me for a moment. "Okay, sit there on the couch and i will be back in five minutes," she said as she went to her closet. She came back wearing a long dress that covered every part of her body but she looked flawless like an Egyptian goddess. I was too desperate that i didn't take notice of what she was wearing before but I think she wanted to make herself comfortable. "Tea, Coffee?"...she asked as she walked towards the kitchen. "Coffee"...I replied gratefully. The way she treated me just made me feel even more guilty. How could she be so nice to me when all I did was make her life a nightmare? No wond
Despised at First Sight Chapter 14 - Drastic Change
Tom's POV I was in a state of ectasy when I saw her waving at me through the window. There were so many thoughts running through my head. I can see she is gradually begining to like me but I don't know if she loves me as much as I love her. Women can be very difficult to understand. Even with my experience with Tilda, they seem like a blank book that need to be filled through one's own experience. There are sooo many things I wanted to tell you her, but I don't know if she can take it. I don't know if it will make you happy and bring us together or only dissappoint her and destroy our friendship. After Mark was pulled away by Tilda during the office dinner party, I sensed her whole mood was destroyed. She couldn't focus on anything else so we decided to leave, just as we heard Mark arguing with Tilda. I was pretty sure it was about my past with Tilda. I couldn't help but notice the way she looked at me when she tried to take Mark away from our little argu
Despised at First Sight Chapter 15 - Send Off Party
"Where the hell have you been Maya"? were his first words when his eyes met mine. Even though he was angry, his eyes were filled with so much pain and genuine concern. Why will he be so concerned about me? Yes he apologized for everything and I genuinely forgave him. I didn't expect him to be my new guardian or anything. "We went to my house to pick my stuffs" Tracy responded from nowhere before i could even speak. Where did she come from all of a sudden? "So you both decided to leave your phones unattended?" He asked again, this time calmer. His eyes looked sunken and his hair was all messed up like he hadn't slept in days. But he still looked so attractive in his white T-shirt. This is my first time seeing him dressed casual and it suited him so well. I couldn't keep my eyes off him till Tom showed up also in a white shirt and looking tired as well. "Are you girls okay" he asked catching his breath. He must have really searched for us. "
Despised at First Sight Chapter 16 - I don't care what I lose
"Tom, can I speak to you alone please...." I asked looking him in the eye. "No, Maya, I want everyone here to be a witness to what we have to say to each other. If you love me, I want to know how deep it is. Are you willing to spend the rest of your life with me?" He asked with a pleading stare. I looked at Tracy speechlessly begging her with my eyes to say something but for the first time, I was left to my fate. She had warned me earlier right? But I never took her warning serious. Right then, Mark came back. His eyes were covered with so much pain and anger. "Please Maya, I have loved you from the very moment I set eyes on you. Since that day, you have taken over my mind completely. I am always at peace whenever you are around me. Please I want to live with this peace forever. Please grant me this wish," he kept pleading. "I don't know what to say Tom, I don't think I am ready yet.." was all I could say. But the look in his ey
Despised at First Sight Chapter 17 - That Indescribable Look
Tom's POV Eventhough I had prepared my mind for possible rejection, I never thought it will hurt this much. I felt like ten daggers piecing through my heart at the same time. I knew it wasn't the right time to propose but I realized Mark was secretly in love with her and knowing he never loved Tilda, he will easily dump her for Maya. I confirmed my suspicion when he went to her office alone. I knew that he went there to ask her out after the party because I heard him talking on the phone and making some arrangements. Knowing that Tilda wasn't around, the only person he was making that arrangement for was Maya. I thought of taking advantage of her innocence and shyness before the crowd to accept me so that we spend time knowing more about each other before we finally settle down but No. She rejected my proposal in front of all those people. Why Maya, why can't you love me for once. Why can't I be happy again? When I left the party, I was about going to the pub to drink my heart out b
Despised at First Sight Chapter 18 - Confession
Mark's POV There was no point hiding the truth from them. Tom is my best friend and Tracy was her bestfriend so I don't think we could hide it any longer. Maya's expression showed how embarrassed she was. It's no fault of hers. I can't keep my hands and eyes of her. I wanted us to keep this a secret and I was still the one to blow it all. She had wiggled out of my arms in embarrassment but I pulled her closer again and with my right arm around her waist, we both faced Tom and Tracy. "I am sorry you guys had to find out this way. I mean, we should have told you being bestfriends but I just wanted to trash out things with Tilda before I make our relationship public." "So you two are dating?" Tracy asked but more of a statement to herself. "Yes," I said boldly, looking at Maya who was looking down shyly. "Well, am not surprised," Tom paused. "Congratulations to both of you." he announced surprisingly. "Thank you," Maya respond
Despised at First Sight Chapter 19 _ I will keep my Love.
During the ride home, my mind was filled with so many thoughts. I can't believe everything is happening this fast. I never imagined getting married anytime soon. I know people date for years or months before the proposal and then engagement before wedding. But Mark was just something else. He wants us to start planning our wedding tommorrow. Sure I am excited. I want everything to be perfect. I will be all his, in spirit, soul and body. What a lucky girl I am. I felt like Cinderella going to the ball after meeting her fairy god mother. This seems to be a dream. But I could not seem to take my mind off Tilda. How will she take this news? I know they don't love each other but since both of them agreed with both families support, it will be terrible to call off the engagement. This is such an uncomfortable situation and I felt sad thinking about it. Mark's POV Seeing Maya drives me crazy. It makes my blood boil like a v
Despised at First Sight Chapter 20 - Stay away
Maya's POV I knew that this was going to happen, but I was still hurt. Mark's father conducted my interview and eventhough he seemed naughty in the beginning, he turned nice when he admitted what he was asking me to do was a test. He seemed so different when we reached his mansion. He turned into a complete beast. I couldn't believe he slapped Mark in front of me. My poor heart ached for him so much. He was going through all this because of me and I felt so sad. He didn't seem like the kind of person who will talk back to his Dad but he did that because of me. I felt like a bad influence on him all of a sudden. I wanted to tell him to go back to Tilda but my poor heart could not let him go. I couldn't stand losing him. It was as if he was carrying my heart with with. I let out all my tears as I burried my head in his chest. Why does life have to be so cruel? Mark has fought so much for me. In the beginning, he despised me just to hide what he felt. He tried his best to get over his f
