Despising the Bachelor Chapter Thirteen
“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
Despising the Bachelor Chapter Eleven
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
Despising the Bachelor Chapter Ten
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
Despising the Bachelor Chapter Eight
Kionno was my first love, my first everything. I experienced almost every single thing I wanted to experience with him. At some point, he was my world. I saw myself spending the rest of my life with him. But life isn’t a fairytale. It is not automatically a happy ending when the princess meets her prince because maybe…he isn’t really her prince to begin with.When we broke up, and my life started going downhill, I became so fixated with survival that I swore to myself never to let my guards down again. I swore never to date anyone or even be friends with anyone of the opposite sex.Of course there have been a lot of men who tried climbing up my walls, but I knew better. I knew that they only like what they see from the outside. I knew they would dump me once they got whatever they wanted from me.So I’m not really certain why I agreed to grab some snacks with Isaac in the first place. Maybe I loosened up a bit when he didn’t judge me because of my work, especially when the majority of
Despising the Bachelor Chapter Seven
It was a Saturday when I realized that I now needed to work or else I’ll die. It might’ve been an exaggeration, but as I was staring at the last dollars in my account, I realized that I wouldn’t be able to last another week, especially when apparently, finding someone also costs money.With all honesty, I really didn’t want to go back to that field of work anymore, especially now that someone has been stalking me. I also know that it’s not just about my safety though… Somehow, I have been thinking about Kio’s pep talk. Even when I hate to admit it, he was right.But what can I really do?’Maybe eat your pride, and accept his offer?’ a part of me said, which made me frown. It was honestly tempting, but I didn’t want to accept any more of his help. I wanted to remind myself that he was one of the reasons why my life started falling apart. I don’t care how many years it has been…I despise him. “Are you really sure, girl? I can lend you money for the meantime, you know. You don’t have to
Despising the Bachelor Chapter Six
For the past years, the world felt so big for me. Probably the reason for that was because I barely got anywhere else aside from my apartment and the locations of my gigs. There were no more vacations, no more road trips. In an instant, my world started revolving around survival.Being outside the country even seems like a dream for me now. I feel like there are even more places in the world that my gaze would never reach. I don’t know what changed, but ever since I met Kio once again, the world feels so small. It even feels like everyone I know now lives a few hundred meters away from me. Once I was out to buy a bottle of shampoo, and I bumped into Kionno! I don’t know what he was doing in that small convenience store when he literally lives an extravagant life in the metro. He even has the money to be anywhere else in the world right now. Tell me why he was in my small town?! He couldn’t be stalking me, right?”You’re buying that? You hate that brand,” he commented, eyeing the bott
Despising the Bachelor Chapter Five
I didn’t have a dreamless sleep.In my sleep, I was dreaming of the night Kionno proposed to me.Although I used to like having people’s attention, he knew I wanted occasions like that to be intimate. He also knew I liked the sea so we got into one of their family-owned yachts dressed in our matching clothings. I was wearing a champagne-colored long dress that was sitting at the top of my ankles. It sparkled just as how the sea sparkled under the moon that night. Meanwhile, Kionno was wearing a champagne-colored suit, his hair combed neatly. It was one of my most magical memories. We had the area all by ourselves, our favorite song—Through the Years by Kenny Rogers playing in the background, good food cooked by Kionno himself, and of course, an intimate proposal. There were tears in the corners of his eyes as he asked the question. “Danielle West…my Dani…will you marry me?”I remembered not having to think about my answer, the sensation of the cold ring around my finger, and the sen
