Rei…Where the hell are you?I checked the clock again—9:26 p.m. He said we’d have dinner tonight, but he still wasn’t here. Not a call, not a text. And I hadn’t even eaten. My stomach grumbled in protest. I was waiting, pacing the condo, my nerves fraying with every tick of the clock. We hadn’t even finished our conversation from earlier. There were things I still needed to tell him… important things. So why wasn’t he here?I tried to tell myself it was nothing—maybe he was caught up, maybe traffic was brutal. I forced my mind to cling to the positive, repeating his words over and over: He’ll come back. We’ll have dinner.But where the hell was he?I slumped onto the sofa, exhausted. The condo was quiet, except for the low hum of the city outside.And then… what the—?I blinked. It was 8:30 a.m.Damn.I had fallen asleep.Did he come by while I was out?

“Kesha, how many days are we supposed to stay here?”I’d asked that question more times than I could count. And honestly, who could blame me? I’d already been in Nasugbu for two days, and we still weren’t leaving. What made everything worse was the total absence of Reigan Salvador. No surprise visits. No playful scares. No sign of him at all.Not even a text. Not a single call. Not even a simple hi.Nothing. Absolutely nothing.Damn it. Was this some kind of joke?After that amazing night, he just… disappeared? After saying “I love you,” he suddenly vanished into thin air. What was his problem? Was he seriously playing with me? Tsk. You’re unbelievable, Reigan. What on earth is wrong with you?“You’ve asked me ten times already, and I’ve answered ten times too. FOUR days! You’re so persistent!”Great. Four days. And why did Rei insist on that anyway? We could finish the shoot in two days. So what was he thinking?It was driving me crazy.I walked away from Kesha, needing space. I was

I wiped my tears quickly, hoping he hadn’t seen them—but of course he had.Why was he even here?“You’re crying?” he asked.“No, I’m not!” I snapped, a little too fast.“Oh, really? What’s that then? Drool? Gross. It even reached your eyes.” He laughed and dropped onto the bench beside me like he owned the place.Heat rushed to my cheeks.Perfect. Absolutely perfect. Of all people, he had to be the one to catch me crying. And worse—what if he heard everything I said?I stared at the ground, voice small. “Have you been here long?”“Yeah.”My stomach tightened. “What did you hear?”“Everything.”“Everything?”“Since the beginning.”My heart sank.Of course. Just my luck.“W-Why are you even here, Gin?” I asked, still avoiding his eyes. I didn’t even know why he was wandering around this part of the property. He never came here.“Nothing. Is that a problem?” he said, his tone flat, almost cold.There it was—that edge he always carried. Sharp. Detached. It made people hesitate, and right

Gabby’s POVWhat the—!Suddenly, someone wrapped their arms around me from behind.I froze on the spot, my heart hammering in my chest. Panic surged through me for a moment—but then the familiar, comforting scent of him filled my senses, and I felt some of the tension melt away.Tears pricked at my eyes. Could I really be crying again?He was here.“Rei…” I whispered, my voice barely audible.“I missed you,” he murmured, holding me tighter and nuzzling his face against my neck. I closed my eyes. God, I’d missed him so much. Just a few days apart, and yet it felt like an eternity.Why now? Why did he have to show up now?“Sniff… sniff…”“Gabby?”I continued sniffing as I stifle my cries.“Hey! Why are you crying? Tsk! Wha—Ah! Hey! Stop hitting me! Ah! Argh! Wha—”“You big, stubborn fool! Why now,

Gabby’s POVI opened my eyes to the feel of soft, warm lips pressed against mine. Argh. So early in the morning, Rei? Really waking up my senses like this?Blinking, I took in the sight before me. The view… was breathtaking. Half-naked, just in pants, messy hair, and that impossible, irresistible look that always made my heart skip a beat.“Morning…” he murmured, a lazy smile curving his lips. I couldn’t help but smile back.And then my mind drifted back to last night…Flashback“Date?” I had asked tentatively.“Yes.” His simple answer made my stomach flutter.“Uhm… okay,” I replied, trying not to show how nervous I was.“Why that face?” he teased.Did I even need to answer? Hmp.“Nothing,” I muttered, crossing my arms.“Why nothing? Come on!” he pressed, relentless as always.“Because! Do

“Where are we going on our date?” I asked, glancing at Rei as he drove. We had left Batangas behind, and Mark was the only one left to finish the remaining photoshoot. My boss had basically kidnapped me for a secret adventure. “Just… a secret for now,” he said, his voice low and mysterious. Hmf! Secret? That only made my heart race faster.“We’re here!"The car stopped, and I craned my neck to see where we had ended up.O_o?Enchanted Kingdom? It's a theme park!“Ha! You look like a kid!” Rei laughed, but I had already jumped out of the car. It had been ages since I’d been here, and excitement bubbled up inside me.I glanced back at Rei. He hadn’t moved yet—still sitting in the car! Hmp!I went back, opened the door across from him, and tugged his hand. “Come on! We still have a date! Let’s go!” I was practically vibrating with excitement.&ld

I missed this. I missed being hyper and over the moon. You can probably feel it, right? Haha.And remember where I am? I’m on a date with the most handsome man on earth. At least, for me. My Rei. Rei and only Rei.We were sitting on a bench now, vanilla ice cream in hand, enjoying the late afternoon sun. I couldn’t help noticing that we both loved vanilla ice cream. Funny how I only realized that now. =_= Destiny, maybe? Hahaha.“Why are you smiling?” he asked suddenly.I jumped slightly, laughing at the thought that had popped into my head. And then—just like that—he went quiet.“Nothing… hehe,” I said, smiling again, trying not to blush too much.We had already gone on nearly every ride in Enchanted Kingdom, and now we were resting, savoring our ice cream. He didn’t speak, so I licked my cone slowly and closed my eyes, enjoying the creamy sweetness.Yumm… vanilla never tasted so

We were already inside the car. Neither of us said a word as I drove off into the empty streets. Dawn was close. I had to take her home.If I could, I would take her to my place instead—keep her beside me until morning.But…I sighed.No. I should bring her back to her condo.So many things happened today. Too many. But still, I’d rather focus on the happy moments we shared. It’s hard—God, it’s so hard—to act happy when you know that soon, the person you love will be hurt because of you.I even cried. And honestly, I didn’t care. I knew she felt it… my tears falling, the tremble in my voice. But I couldn’t stop it. I couldn’t hold it in.Other men might say crying is weak, or childish, or unmanly.But no—A man who cries is a man who knows himself.A man who cries is a man who loves.And I cried because I know I could make her cry… but I never want

I sank weakly into the sofa, exhaustion weighing down my body and mind. It was already two in the morning. I’d just come home, like I always did, after another long night—another long, restless night.“You stayed out all night again,” her voice broke through the haze of my fatigue.I turned my head slightly to see her standing there, clutching her bloated stomach, worry etched into every line of her face.“Why are you still awake?” I asked, resting my head against the back of the sofa and closing my eyes. Sleep was slipping through my fingers, elusive and impossible.“And you? Why are you coming home just now?” she countered, voice sharp, eyes tired but angry.I said nothing. I rose slowly, moving toward the stairs, each step heavier than the last. I needed rest. I needed sleep.“Rei!” she shouted, the sound stabbing through my exhaustion.“What?” I barked, irritation slipping

“Gino! Your sister is your problem tonight. I swear, that girl is going to be the death of me!” I yelled across the living room. At that point, I didn’t care how many swear words were spilling out of my mouth. Anyone would lose their mind after babysitting a raging, half-feral teenager for three straight months. You’d go insane, too. “If you weren’t so hopelessly obsessed with your sister, maybe I wouldn’t be losing my blood pressure over her!” I snapped. Again, no reaction. He stood there in silence—typical. Are all emo band vocalists like this? Barely any words. Moody. A little scary. God, he was impossible to read, and it only drained me more. I was about to step out the door when I glanced back. Gabby lay passed out on the sofa where I helped settle her, and Gino was kneeling beside her, watching her as if she were made of glass. It was already two in the morning before we even made it home. I told myself earlier I’d stop babysitting Gabby, but of course I couldn’t lea
