In the eyes of many, she is the star of the night. A woman named Roxy, known in clubs in Dagupan and Baguio not only for her inherent beauty, but also for her unique charisma and dancing skills that seem to charm any man who lays eyes on her. It is said that her every move has the power to turn the world of men, from simple drivers to those in positions of authority. But behind the energetic music and colorful lights, there is a hidden danger that comes with too much attraction. Roxy’s story is not just about fun; it has become a dark proof that too much attraction can be the spark of a heinous crime that has shaken the entire province of Pangasinan.

It all started with a simple trip. Juanito, a quiet and hardworking van driver, fell into the trap of love when he met Roxy. For him, she was not just a passenger; she was the woman who gave color to his lonely life. From simple conversations in the front seat of the van, it turned into a deep relationship. But Juanito didn’t know, he wasn’t the only man obsessed with Roxy’s “grind”. There were other eyes watching, eyes full of jealousy and possession. What he thought was a simple love would lead him into the middle of an investigation that would test his resolve and put him behind bars for a crime he didn’t commit.

The tragedy occurred on a dark stretch of highway. One September night, as Juanito and Roxy were returning home in their van, armed men stopped them. They thought the checkpoint was a trap. In the chaos, Juanito managed to escape, but Roxy was left in the hands of the monsters. The next morning, Roxy’s body was found in a cornfield, lifeless and apparently suffering from extreme hardship. The news spread like wildfire: the woman everyone wanted had been the victim of violence. And since Juanito was the last person seen with her and fled in fear, he became the prime suspect. The driver, who had truly loved, was accused by society and the law.

But, like every crime of passion, the truth inevitably comes out. While Juanito is in prison and suffering, witnesses gradually emerge who point to the real motive: extreme jealousy. It is learned that an influential person—an officer who should have been the protector of the people—has a deep obsession with Roxy. He cannot accept that the woman he “takes care of” and favors has chosen a simple driver instead. The “grind” that used to provide comfort has become a source of jealousy that leads to the killing of a life. The investigation shifts from the driver to the uniformed officer who used his power to solo the woman he could not get in the holy prayer room.

In the end, justice was achieved, but at a very high price. Juanito was acquitted after almost a year in prison, while the real culprits now face the punishment of the law. Roxy’s story serves as a bitter reminder to all: that beauty and attraction, when mixed with wrong desires and power, can become a curse. The night witnessed how obsession can push a person to do diabolical deeds, and how an innocent love can be the cause of the destruction of many lives.
