Yannie Ace Ruiz

"Yeobo, are you really sure about what you want?" Josh asked me, his concern evident as I insisted.

"Yeah. It's just this once, and I'm with you and my friends," I decisively replied to him.

"But, Yannie... you're not used to drinking. You might regret it," Jomar reminded me, a concern shared by everyone here.

"Hey, bro. I should be the only one concerned about my girlfriend," Josh told Jomar, which made Ramil and the others laugh.

"You're so overly jealous, bro! Can't someone be concerned about your girlfriend because they're friends with Yannie?" Byron teased Josh, joining in the banter.

"Yeah, bro. We're all concerned about Yannie here," Ramil seconded.

"Whatever," Josh grumbled in response.

"Alright, it's Yannie's shot now!" Ivory interjected, handing me a shot glass filled with alcohol.

We were still at the picnic park, now in the late afternoon, and they had decided to drink. Luckily, drinking was allowed in this area.

I really don't drink any kind of alcohol. Bu

    Josh Rain Montez"Josh?""Josh...""Josh!"I abruptly woke up upon hearing Yannie's voice repeatedly calling my name. From a soft and calm tone, it escalated to what seemed like a desperate plea.I slowly sat up and immediately searched the room with my eyes for her. But my forehead creased in disappointment when I didn't see her beside me.Where is she?Everything that happened between us last night was crystal clear in my mind. I vividly remembered the warmth of the night we shared and how I had embraced her.My gaze fell on the bed, and there I saw traces of my embrace."My love?" I asked as I stood up and left the room. But silence greeted me outside, without any sign of her.Such scenes replayed in my mind, where I slept with her beside me but woke up alone. Could she have gone out again to buy food?I quickly returned to the room to change, then hurriedly left the apartment. I glanced around, hoping to spot her nearby, but she was nowhere to be seen. So on my way to the nearby s

    Josh Rain Montez"What are you doing here?" I asked Arriane with frustration and furrowed brows as I found her in the house.She quickly stood up, wearing a wide smile as if she had been expecting my arrival."Josh, you're finally here!" She hurried over and tried to hug my arm, but I swiftly moved away from her."Where's Mom?" I demanded, irritation clear in my voice."Finally, my son is home," both Arriane and I turned to the voice, and Mommy stood walking towards us."Mom...""Welcome back, Son. I'm glad you've come to your senses," Mommy greeted me with a smile."Leave us alone, Arriane," I said firmly, keeping my eyes fixed on Mommy."What? But why?" Arriane questioned, her tone puzzled. Mommy raised an eyebrow at me. "Tita Rhiana invited me to be here.""I said leave us alone," I repeated, my voice firm and cold, still not breaking eye contact with my Mom.Arriane let out a deep sigh before she spoke again, "Whatever!" She turned away from us and walked out of the house."What n

I quickly moved to wrap and weigh the fish they were buying. Afterward, I handed them over one by one. "Thank you. Please come again!""Are you okay, Ija?" Grandpa approached and asked me."Yes, Grandpa. I'm okay," I replied with a smile."Are you sure? Come, sit down, and rest. I'll take care of this.""No need, Grandpa. I'm fine. It would be better if you sit down and rest.""Monchito! How are you?" Both Grandpa and I turned to the person calling him. From what I could tell, he seemed to be around the same age as Grandpa. "Oh, you have a beautiful lady with you today. Who might she be?""Oh, my Friend Gener! How are you? This is my granddaughter. Martin's daughter!" Grandpa replied cheerfully to his old friend who arrived. Then he introduced me, "She's a friend and compadre of mine, Ija.""Good day! I'm Yannie," I introduced m

    Yannie Ace Ruiz"Ate Yannie, your hotdog is burning!" Yuri's loud shout startled me and brought me back to my senses. I saw the smoking pan and the burning hotdog in front of me, which made me panic.In my haste, I quickly grabbed the hot pan. "Ahh!" I shouted in pain as I burned myself."Yannie!" Mom immediately rushed over to me. She faced the burning pan and then looked at me with concern. "Are you okay?" she asked while checking my burned finger."Yes, mom. I'm sorry. I burned the hotdog," I replied."Alright, sit over there. I'll take care of this," Mom said reassuringly, and finally, I sighed in relief and followed her instructions.Mom approached me a moment later with the rescued burnt hotdog. She placed it on the table in front of me and then fetched medicine for my burned finger.As Mom treated my burn, my vision suddenly blurred. Before I knew it, tears were escaping uncontrollably. Mom paused, looking at me with sympathy. "Yannie, my dear..."As my tears silently flowed, t

I shouted, but Josh didn't listen to me and continued attacking Angelo.I lost count of how many punches Angelo took from Josh's furious assault. Quickly, I moved closer to them to intervene and stood between them."Enough! Josh, what are you doing?!" I yelled again, finally making him stop. I quickly attended to Angelo, who had cuts and blood on his face. "Angelo! Angelo, are you okay?" I asked with concern as I helped him up."Angelo? Is that your guy's name?" Josh asked bitterly, his eyes showing intense hatred towards me now."Josh...""You left me for that asshole? Huh?"My heart twisted. I had so much I wanted to say to him now, but I felt suddenly tongue-tied. It was as if I struggled to speak."Who is he, Yannie?" Angelo asked me calmly. I was relieved he didn't fight back against Josh because it could have escalated further.Josh smirked bitterly. "You really have the nerve to ask who I a

    Josh Rain Montez"Are you drunk again?" Mom started as soon as I walked into the house. But I ignored her and continued walking past her. "Seriously, Josh? Until when are you going to behave like this just because of that worthless girl?!" I stopped walking after she said those words. "She's gone, Josh. She left you, but you're still wallowing because of her!"I slowly faced Mom. "Have you been in love, Mom?" I asked gently, which seemed to stun her momentarily."What?""You know what, Mom? I've always wondered if you've ever been in love with Dad. Because every time I look at both of you, I don't see love between you."Her jaw clenched. "Stop talking nonsense, Josh. Don't drag me and your Dad into your drama.""I guess you've never been in love. That's why you're like this, maybe because you've never experienced loving someone, especially getting hurt." My vision started to blur as tears threatened to escape from me.Several days have passed since Yannie blatantly rejected me, but un

    Josh Rain Montez"Bro, that's enough. You've had way too much to drink," Ramil interrupted me as he reached for the alcohol I was drinking. But I quickly pulled it away from him."I'm okay, Bro. I'm not drunk yet.""But, Bro, you've been here drinking for a while now. And you've been doing nothing else but drinking for days. You might get into trouble.""Yeah, Bro. Who knows what might happen to you with all this," Byron added.I took another sip of my drink and replied to them, "Whatever happens to me, it's probably better than this.""Bro, that's enough. You're drunk," Ramil intervened again, successfully taking the alcohol away from me this time."What the heck? Why are you so persistent? Why are you meddling?" I snapped at him, getting annoyed as I stood up."Easy, Bro!" Byron said to me."You're already drunk, so stop drinking—""Damn it! So what if I'm already drunk? Why do you have to interfere? Can't you just leave me alone?!"Ramil took a deep breath and looked at me wearily

I could see the deep concern on her face as she looked at me, as if afraid of what I might do after learning the truth from Arriane. Her throat moved repeatedly as tears seemed about to fall."I'm sorry, Aunt," Arriane broke the silence. "I did everything, but... he's truly, madly, and crazy in love with that girl. With Yannie," she said to Mommy, then sadly walked out of the coffee shop, leaving us behind.I avoided looking at Mommy and lifelessly stood and turned away from her. I was about to step away, but she quickly stopped me and blocked my path. "Josh..." she said my name. I didn't respond and instead continued walking past her. But I stopped when she spoke again. "Aren't you going to ask me about what you've learned?"I smirked sarcasti

    "Yannie..." Ramil uttered my name with a hint of concern when he saw me entering Josh's room.I looked at him questioningly until my gaze landed on Josh's empty bed. My brows furrowed slightly."Where's Josh?" I asked Ramil and Byron. The two took a deep breath, and I could see the worry and concern on their faces. It seemed like they had something to tell me but were hesitant. "Why? Did something happen? Where is Josh?" I asked again.Before answering, the two exchanged glances, seemingly urging each other to respond. Eventually, Ramil met my eyes and spoke. "Josh left. We caught up to him, but... he wouldn't be stopped.""Huh? What do you mean he left? Where did he go? Did he go home? Was he discharged?" I asked, confused and bombarding them with questions."He insisted on being discharged by his doctor. He left and went to the airport... to chase after Arriane," Ramil replied."H-Huh?""Arriane told him she was continuing her studies abroad. So, he hurried off to the airport to cat

    Yannie Ace Ruiz"Nice! Nice try, bro. But drop that joke," Ramil broke the silence that enveloped us after Josh asked who I was."What try? What joke?" Josh asked Ramil, confused."Bro—""I'm serious. Who is she? Who are they?" Josh pointed at me and Veron."Get it together, bro. This isn't funny—""You get it together," Josh quickly interrupted Byron, then looked at me again. His gaze was far different from how he used to look at me. It was as if my presence confused him deeply. It was as if he had forgotten everything about me—everything about us.Because of those looks, my heart immediately grew heavy. I couldn't explain what I felt at first."Son!" Josh's parents suddenly arrived. "How are you, son? How are you feeling now?" his father quickly asked."I'm okay, Dad. I just... don't understand why I'm here," Josh replied to his father."You don't remember... what happened?" Josh's mother asked in confusion."I can't," Josh answered simply, which made my heart feel even heavier and

    Yannie Ace Ruiz"Rhiana..."I quickly wiped away my tears and just as quickly let go of Josh's hands when I heard Ate Rica's voice.My heart immediately pounded with anxiety as I slowly straightened up and turned to face them. There, I met the gaze of Josh's mom. I struggled to swallow because it felt like the words I wanted to say were fighting to come out of my lips. I didn't know how to start apologizing to her for being here now.I knew I had promised her before that I would never show myself to her son again. I had promised her before that I would disappear from Josh's life, but... here I am now, crying in front of her son. It was as if, in an instant, all the promises I had made to her and my determination back then had suddenly crumbled. I wanted to kneel before her again and beg for her to let me be with Josh.I struggled to swallow again before starting to speak. "S-Sorry," I said weakly while trying to hold back my tears. "I just wanted to make sure Josh is okay." I looked d

I forced myself to utter his name despite the intense pain caused by the bullet wound."Don't leave me, Yannie. Just hang in there, okay? You can do it, Yannie. Please, don't give up!" Josh kept crying to me."D*mn it! How did she get away from you? You idiots!" I heard the man who shot me yelling at his men."You bastard! I'll kill you!" Josh shouted angrily at the man."I'm the one who's going to kill you! Thank your girlfriend for taking the bullet that was meant for your head! If she hadn't done that, you would be dead by now, and she would be crying over you. But don't worry, you won't be around much longer because I'm going to finish you off too." The man pointed the gun at Josh again.I swallowed with difficulty, feeling my breathing become labored."D-Don't..." I whispered weakly, trying to protect him."Wow. That's touching. You love this

    Yannie Ace RuizMy tears continue to flow incessantly while my chest keeps rising and falling with the intense anxiety I'm feeling right now. I hold my breath as if exhaling freely might bring something wrong upon me, even though I'm just sitting inside this car.I don't know how many minutes or hours have passed since these men took me. I don't know who they are or why they are doing this to me. Over and over again, I replay in my mind if I have wronged someone."We're here," said the man in front of his companions. He stopped the car, and they got out one by one.The man beside me opened the car door and stepped out, giving me a sharp look. "Get out," he commanded.I struggled to swallow and looked around at where we were. It was dark surroundings, but I could see tall grasses around us, with a large warehouse in front of us."Get out, I said," the man repeated his order."Who are you? Where are you taking me? What are you going to do to me?" I asked fearfully, one question after an
