Kevin [Monologue]

I'm just tired if this lifestyle of mine. I do not regret anything I've done but it's way too much. What haven't I seen, felt or touched? Tall, short, fat or skinny, I've seen it all. Yes, it's fun having all women fight for you but I hate this now. I do not have my own life. I allowed certain influences, circumstances and occurrences to control my life. I do not fancy these anymore. I need to have my life back and stay true to myself, love one person and be happy. I go about hurting the feelings of ladies after having my way with them. This is cruel. Will I ever be able to forgive myself? They showed me true love and affection, and all that I did was to hurt their feelings. Breaking Davida so badly, I know she really loved me. Everything seemed different around her as if time froze whenever she was closer, she treated me like a king and is the only one who understood me better. Sorry to all the girls I've hurt. I'm single and not willing to date sooner. I will only date if genuinely I have that love and affection for someone. With this, I will head to the girl and propose to her from the deepest part of my heart but for now, my heart is on vacation and going through refurbishment. I live to love for the first time....

Throughout the rest of the weeks to end the first academic term, Kevin remained on the low. Hardly would you see him with his boys at the car park or at the cafeteria. He still had thoughts of his recent breakup with Jalony. After realizing how cruel he was and his inhumane deeds, he ought to change and rebrand himself in a better and attractive package. He decides to stay single to learn to correct  certain things about him and have a mental reorientation of certain ideologies. When it came to love relationships, his name was mud. Though his social status was still being held high, he had these one or two to his discredit. He goes on a social media break for sometime to help right certain wrongs of his in a better and sound manner. He stayed away from almost everyone, his phone and unofficial parties. He rejected Nicole at the basketball practice when she proposed to him. He cut her off with a "no, I'm not interested" and walked away. Aba who was one of the female closer to him also proposed and was rejected too. "I do not want to hurt your feelings, I can't fake love to you. You're a great friend and I prefer we stay this way", advised Kevin. He again rejects Tilly and Emelda who were in same class with him. This sudden change looked bizarre and happened to be really trending. Everyone at East Point High School and beyond who really knew Kevin were 'shock-prised'. He stayed indoors the whole of the vacation.

So has Kevin really changed or it's just a way of deceiving them all?
If he's really changed, then what is at stake for his love life?
