Lahat ng Kabanata ng Somebody That You Loved: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Bonita watched Kenzo and Helga as they measured a sample of a salmon-colored wedding dress adorned with flower and butterfly accents scattered around the shoulders. The dress was placed on a mannequin in the middle of the room, right next to Maria, who was sipping a sweet pink drink topped with glittering, multicolored star-shaped candies. Bonita resisted the urge to snatch the drink and throw it in the trash to maintain her reputation, which was on the line.Since Maria set foot in the bridal shop, the atmosphere had changed. The woman exuded an arrogance that her body couldn't contain. More than that, her dominating aura, as if she was superior to everyone in the room, made Kenzo and Helga feel disgusted."You have to diet if you insist on using that size, Princess," Kenzo reprimanded as he measured Maria's waist. His eyes glanced at the pink drink now lying on the table. His tone was polite and sweet, though the meaning behind it was sharp. How could it not be? He was holding back

Various thoughts that approached Bonita could not make her fall asleep despite trying to close her eyes. When she finally opened them because they felt very sore, Velica was already asleep.She sighed irritably and took her phone lying nearby, but there was no news from Benjamin, which made the wound in her heart widen and start to feel suffocating. Now, the bad feelings churning inside her heart turned into waves rolling uncontrollably.'He must be busy, right? Busy making love.' She thought despairingly.Her chest throbbed painfully at those words. She could imagine what Benjamin and the model named Zayna were doing as if she was actually seeing it in front of her eyes. Something she had never done with Benjamin in their four years of relationship. However, she was an adult woman. She knew exactly what happens when a couple makes love.'Get a grip, Boo! You should let him go if he really is cheating on you! Be strong like your father!' Her weak heart scolded.The burden that approac

"Are you okay?" Helga asked for the umpteenth time.Bonita shrugged. She was too tired to respond after getting a thorough lecture from her father.That morning, Nolan had come to the bridal shop. He claimed he had just bailed Benjamin out from the temporary holding cell at the police station. Bonita had explained what had happened, but Nolan insisted she should have talked things through instead of calling the police to kick Benjamin out. Nolan argued that, after all, Benjamin wasn’t a criminal; he came to the house with the intention of clearing up the issue.On Bonita’s phone screen, which she was holding at that moment, there were numerous gossip articles about how close Benjamin was with the model Zayna Lott. The two were appearing on various news portals. There were even photos on an online magazine page labeling them as "the hottest new couple."Bonita huffed in frustration, her chest tightening. She tossed her phone onto the table and rubbed her face in exasperation."Just go

Zayna's words came true in just a matter of hours. When Benjamin returned to his adventure gear shop after meeting Zayna, several new customers had already arrived, eager to meet him and strike up a conversation."I didn’t know there was a shop this well-stocked in the area. I’ll definitely come back and bring some friends along," said Hugo, one of Benjamin’s new customers."I’ll be looking forward to it. Kim will help you find everything you need if I’m not around," Benjamin replied, glancing toward Kimberly, who was busy near the cashier."Actually, I’m curious if I could meet Zayna. She’s so elegant and stunning," Ressa interjected with a gleam in her eyes.Hugo nudged Ressa’s arm, causing her to smile sheepishly, though her eyes betrayed her genuine desire to meet Zayna. If she could, she’d seize the opportunity to snap a picture with her or ask for an autograph."Is there anything you’d like me to pass on to Zayna? I’ll let her know if I see her again," Benjamin offered."Are you

Four and a half years ago, Bonita attended a party at a café, reluctantly tagging along because Velica had insisted. She was bored out of her mind since Velica was the only person she knew at the gathering. Seeking some solitude, she excused herself to go to the restroom alone.Before reaching the restroom, Bonita received a text on her phone. Nolan reminded her to stay vigilant, use her pepper spray on any man with ill intentions, and aim for their vital parts if necessary.Two women were chatting in front of a large mirror when Bonita entered the restroom. They were talking about a man, but Bonita paid no attention to his name. She didn’t know either of the women, so she walked past them and entered one of the stalls. She had just tucked her phone into the pocket of her oversized cardigan when she heard a high-pitched, flirtatious scream from outside. The sound was so sharp it reminded her of hyena.“There’s always screaming when it comes to men, as if they’ve never seen one since b
