Exactly at noon, Bert and the others took a break. Bert took off his shirt since it was soaked with sweat. Luckily, the breeze in the fields was strong, so even under the blazing sun, it still felt cool.

“Let’s eat,” said Vangie as she handed out plates to each of them. Then she passed the spoons, but they refused, saying they’d just eat with their hands since they had washed them. Vangie didn’t insist.

“Sit here, love. Let’s eat together,” Bert said, patting the seat next to him.

“Wait,” Vangie said. She took Bert’s plate and filled it with rice and food, then fixed her own plate before sitting beside him.

“You’re lucky to have a wife like her, Bert,” said the oldest man among them, Mang Jose. He was almost seventy but still good at climbing trees.

Vangie smiled at the compliment. “Just enough,” she replied.

Bert shook his head. “You’re right, sir. I’m really lucky. She’s beautiful and kind.”

Vangie blushed and lightly hit Bert’s arm, laughing. “Stop that. It’s embarrassing.”

  • In love with the Cougar   Chapter 1

    The woman gasped repeatedly, her hands tied to the headboard of the bed. A bathrobe was the only thing covering her body. She bit her lip as she watched the man who captured her receive a blowjob from a woman dressed in black leather lingerie, wearing a butterfly-shaped mask and high-heeled boots.Soon, the masked woman quickened her movements, making the man groan loudly as he reached his peak. Seeing this, the tied woman looked away, biting her lip to stifle her own sounds. A strange sensation built up in her lower stomach from what she had just witnessed.The masked woman then stood up and marched out of the room. The tied woman glanced back at the man—only to find him standing near her feet, completely naked, staring at her with desire.He slowly crawled onto the bed, and she instinctively pressed herself against the headboard to get away. But he grabbed her ankle, pulling her down, causing her bathrobe to slip, revealing her smooth, fair thighs.“S-Stop,” she pleaded when he plac

    Evangeline frowned. Her brain seemed to lag at what the man in front of her had just said."They never told me we'd be delivering to someone so beautiful."She looked at him in confusion. She couldn't tell if he was being serious or just flattering her. His grin stretched almost to his ears, and the way he looked at her felt like he was teasing.She was no stranger to compliments. Even at forty-two, her heart-shaped face still held a natural beauty. Her shoulder-length haircut made her look even younger. People often told her she could outshine the younger women in their town. And she believed it—before she got pregnant with her ex-husband’s child, she had been the school's top beauty contestant.Even after giving birth to five children, she never gained weight. She never used beauty products, yet her tanned skin remained smooth.She swallowed hard and looked away, feeling a strange flutter in her chest. She was used to compliments, even ones that were just flattery. But for some reas

  • In love with the Cougar   Chapter 3

    Sometimes in life, we think we’re already content—especially as we grow older and have a stable life. Often, all we wish for is to be happy. But as they say… life starts at forty.Ever since Vangie’s encounter with Bert, she couldn’t get him out of her mind. She found out he was Lucia’s son, which meant that even if she didn’t want him delivering to her store, his mother wouldn’t stop him. He had grown up in Manila and had only recently returned to Samar. She tried to ignore him whenever he delivered goods, even though he persistently tried to talk to her. His mother even asked her to just let it go and not pay him any attention.She was convinced he was a little slow in the head.That morning, Vangie went into the city to collect money sent by her children. The remittance center was only available there. Every month, her kids sent her an allowance, even though she constantly told them it wasn’t necessary. The money she earned from her store was more than enough.After getting the mon

  • In love with the Cougar   Chapter 4

    It had been fifteen years since Vangie and her husband separated. She never thought she would have another man in her life. For all those years, she had been alone, except for her children. She let their father petition them to live abroad so they could have a better life. Even though she knew it meant being left alone in the Philippines, she accepted it. She didn’t want to take that opportunity away from them.It had also been fifteen years since she last felt her heart beat for someone. The feelings she had for Fredo never came back. From then until now, only her ex-husband had ever touched, hugged, or kissed her. She thought she was done with things like that.Until now…Bert was kissing her.Vangie froze in shock, unable to move. Her eyes widened when she opened them, but Bert’s remained shut as he savored their kiss. One of his arms held her basket, while the other wrapped around her waist. His other hand rested on the back of her head.She wanted to push him away, to slap or hit

    Vangie felt like she was transported back in time as she rode on the back of Bert’s motorcycle. She was still shy around him, so she only held onto his shoulder. But before he started the engine, he grabbed her hands and wrapped them around his waist.“What are you doing?” Vangie asked, eyes wide. She felt awkward as her body pressed against his back.“It’s safer if you hold on here. Plus, you get free abs.”Vangie frowned and pinched Bert’s stomach, but to her surprise, it was rock hard. It was like grabbing a stone. Bert flinched slightly, pressing against her even more. She froze when her chest touched his back, making her pull away in embarrassment.“Y-You’re so full of nonsense,” she muttered.“Just hold on properly. You don’t believe me?”Vangie sighed and adjusted her grip. It had been a long time since she last rode a motorcycle, so she finally gave in and wrapped her arms around his waist. She swallowed hard when she caught a whiff of his masculine scent. Something inside her

  • In love with the Cougar   Chapter 6

    Vangie tried to forget her conversation with Bert, but ever since then, he kept coming to her house. He never said much—just brought her food. Sometimes, he even helped her open her store. He was serious when he said he would court her.She tried to ignore him, but after his confession, something inside her seemed to come alive. She had to admit it—she was slowly starting to feel something for Bert.“So, this young guy is courting you?” Sheila asked again.Vangie paused from repacking cooking oil and looked at her friend. “Yes! How many times are you going to ask that?” she replied, annoyed.Sheila had asked her the same question five times. They were in Vangie’s store, repacking supplies like cooking oil into small plastic bags to sell for five or ten pesos each. Sheila always helped her with this task.They had been friends for over a decade, ever since Vangie was still studying and hadn’t married yet. That’s why she trusted Sheila enough to talk about Bert.Sheila suddenly squealed

  • In love with the Cougar   Chapter 7

    Vangie woke up early to get ready. She and Sheila were going to a birthday party, so she decided to close her store for the day, even though she didn't plan to stay long. It was their godchild’s sixteenth birthday, the child of their former classmate, so many of their old classmates would be there. Vangie knew she might end up staying longer since it would be like a reunion.“Vangie! What’s taking you so long? Aren’t you ready yet?” Sheila called out. She had arrived at Vangie’s house at 7 AM, but it was already 8 AM, and Vangie was still busy. Sheila sighed and sat on the sofa to wait.“Almost done!” Vangie replied from her room upstairs. She stood in front of her mirror, putting on red lipstick and brushing her hair. She wore fitted jeans and a sleeveless floral blouse with buttons down the front, pairing it with white sandals. She let her hair down and, once satisfied with her look, headed downstairs.“Finally, you’re ready!” Sheila exclaimed, putting down her phone and standing up

    After everything that happened, Vangie couldn’t help but feel uneasy. She always had the feeling that Bert wouldn’t come back to her. So she made him start using a cellphone so she could easily contact him. Bert didn’t want to at first, especially since Vangie gave him an Android phone. Instead, he chose to use a small phone with buttons.Vangie texted him often while he was at work, asking where he was and what he was doing. That setup helped calm her worries. She also noticed that Bert wasn’t going out much anymore. One time while they were shopping, someone approached them claiming to be Bert’s friend from his hometown. He invited Bert to drink for a birthday celebration, but Bert refused. Vangie even encouraged him to go, but Bert firmly said no, saying he didn’t want to make her feel suspicious.Vangie felt a little guilty. It seemed like Bert was always thinking about how she might react—enough to turn down his usual habits. She never meant for him to stop doing what he used to

  • In love with the Cougar   Chapter 29

    Bert kissed Vangie deeply, holding her face in his hands. Vangie swallowed hard, feeling torn. She was still upset because he didn’t come home last night, but she didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. They had never fought before, and she didn’t want their first fight to happen just because she was being paranoid.Vangie responded to his kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. Bert’s hands started to wander, holding her waist and giving it a gentle squeeze.“I miss you, Vangie,” Bert whispered, trailing kisses down her neck.Vangie couldn’t help but let out a soft sound. She missed him too — that was part of why she was so upset. She wasn’t used to not seeing him, and it was the first time something like this had happened.

    "Love, I’m going out later. Is that okay?" Bert called out from the bathroom while taking a shower.Vangie paused from folding their clothes. “Where are you going?” she asked, then continued folding.“The guys invited me to the fiesta,” he answered. “But it’s okay if you don’t want me to go. I haven’t said yes yet.”Vangie sighed. She didn’t want to stop him from doing what he wanted. “It’s fine. Go ahead.”The bathroom door opened, and the smell of their cheap soap filled the room. Vangie swallowed hard when Bert stepped out, completely naked, drying himself off. She quickly looked away.“Are you sure?” Bert asked

    Vangie’s heart almost broke when she saw her husband with another woman in the field. He had just come home from Manila and said he wanted to work on their land because he missed it. She followed him there to bring him lunch — but never expected to see him with someone else, doing something unforgivable.On her way to confront him, she ran into Fredo’s mother.“Vangie? What happened to you? Why are you crying?” his mother asked, full of concern. She held Vangie’s shoulders and tried to lift her face.Vangie’s face was soaked with tears, and she could barely see. She didn’t care that they were standing in the middle of the road. She hugged her mother-in-law and cried her heart out.“M-Ma… F-Fredo…”

    “Vangie!”Vangie stopped scrubbing Bert’s clothes when she heard someone calling her from outside the house. She was in the middle of doing laundry. She frowned because she wasn’t expecting any visitors today. Besides Sheila, the only people who usually came by were delivery drivers — and she hadn’t ordered anything today.“Just a second!”She set the brush down and slowly stood up, holding her waist. Her back had been aching a lot these past few days. She stretched a little and wiped her hands before heading toward the gate. She froze when she saw who was waiting outside.“Aren’t you going to let me in?” the woman asked directly.Vangie swallowed hard and quickly walked to the gate

    Marica: Ma, you should schedule your medical appointment. I’ll send you the hospital’s contact number so you can call them. We’ll send the money for the fee the day after tomorrow.Vangie almost held her breath as she read her daughter’s message. She bit her lip and stared outside her store. What should I do? she asked herself. She hadn’t told Bert yet about her plans to process her papers. She’d tried several times, but every time she was about to speak, her words got stuck. She didn’t know how to tell him without hurting him — or making him upset.She hadn’t expected Bert to come into her life. She had been content just running her little store and waiting for her children. Her plan to follow them to Can

  • In love with the Cougar   Chapter 24

    As the days passed, Bert and Vangie’s relationship grew deeper. Bert visited Vangie almost every day — in fact, he often stayed over and hardly went home anymore. Vangie’s friend, Sheila, kept teasing her, saying she looked like a lovestruck teenager again because her cheeks would blush whenever she talked about Bert. Vangie didn’t deny it — she felt the same way. Ever since she and Bert got together, she felt younger and happier.“What? What did you just say?” Vangie asked in shock while they were having lunch at her store.“I said… maybe I should just live here,” Bert replied casually.Vangie put down her spoon and stared at him. “Y-You’re serious? You want to live… here? In my house?” She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and
