Demi and her Uncle Sandro went home together. They asked Lourdes to cook some appetizers.

“ Lourdes really cooks well,” said Sandro as he sat on the sofa.

“Oh, you’re just flattering me, Senyorito Sandro,” replied Lourdes shyly.

“Oh, it's not flattery, Lourdes. What Uncle says is true,” Demi chimed in while setting the plates on the table.

“Yes, Lourdes. You’ve always been so good at this. Your cooking is still excellent,” added Sandro.

Lourdes smiled. “Thank you. Your words really warm my heart.”

"That's why I try not to stay here too long, because you always make me gain weight," Sandro joked, laughing.

Maine laughed along with him. "Uncle, you've never gained weight. It's like you're on a diet whenever you eat here."

"That's true," said Lourdes, "because you're always busy and out. So when you're here, I make sure you eat well."

"Well, I really can't resist your cooking, Lourdes," said Sandro as he tasted a piece of the appetizer. "It's really delicious!"

    After a brief trip to the restroom, Sandro returned and noticed some women sitting on a bamboo bench outside the hut. He glanced out the window and asked, "Who are the women sitting on the bamboo bench?" "Oh, those are Jessa and her friends," Demi replied, standing nearby. "Have they graduated? Are they working now?" Sandro asked. "Jessa hasn't passed the board exam yet, so she's working here for now, managing the finances on the farm," he explained to his friend. "Why do you ask?" "No reason, really. I just noticed there are a lot of beautiful women here on your farm. I don't get out much," Sandro replied with a smile. "Do you like her?" Demi asked, teasingly. "Hmm, no. I don't like women who dress provocatively. That woman is almost naked," Sandro answered. "Maybe she's just feeling hot. Most of them dress like that here," Demi looked at the woman his friend is referring . "Aren't you tempted?" Sandro asked again. "No, I'm used to it. Besides, if I don't like someo

    "This is part of being married to each other, Jermaine," said Demitri, slowly removing his clothes. "No—no!!! It can't be!!" She stepped back as her husband approached. "Sweetheart, there's nothing more you can do. We're married now, what else can you say to me? Besides, I've invested a lot in you. Perhaps it's time for you to reciprocate everything..." he murmured as they neared the bed. She sat down on the soft mattress, realizing she was the only one sleeping in it. Her spouse stood by the door, an extension of that room, so as not to arouse suspicion from their housemates that they weren't sleeping side by side. "But, Demitri... we're only married on paper!" She continued to look for a way to stop him, holding onto her clothes to avoid his touch. The man stopped in front of her. Gently, he held her chin and looked into her eyes. "Is what I give you still not enough, Jermaine? I'm only asking this now, but can't you grant me this one thing?" Jermaine felt the intensity in h

    She woke up the next day with her whole body aching. Her head hurt, and the pain was throbbing in her temples. How many times had the man claimed her? She couldn't remember anymore. All she could recall was the ecstasy brought by their union. She checked the time, it was already ten o'clock... Suddenly, she felt ashamed of her husband. She felt as if she had tempted him. (How will I face him? It's so embarrassing.) She covered herself with the blanket. She noticed that he was no longer beside her. He was probably downstairs chopping wood again. She got up and noticed the stain on the bed cover. She decided she would just change it later. She took a shower first. As she touched her lips, she smiled. The sweetness of Demi's kiss still lingered there. After taking a bath, she dried her hair and combed it. She noticed that her eyes seemed to sparkle. "Why do I look so beautiful?" she asked herself. She put on a bit of cologne and then stepped out. Looking out the window, s

    "W-what are you going to do?" she asked as he pinned her down on the bed. "This," he said, kissing her with fervor. "I know you're jealous, that's why you're acting this way. I'm sorry I didn't notice you right away... it's my fault," he said between kisses. She smiled at what her husband said. He really knew how to handle her tantrums. She hugged him and responded to his kisses. They indulged in each other for hours. She didn't understand why she always fell asleep afterward. But the second time they made love was more special. She woke up to find him still beside her, hugging her tightly and sleeping soundly. The man suddenly spoke, "Are you trying to make me melt with that stare? I know I'm handsome, but don't make it so obvious that you like me too." "Huh!" She averted her gaze from the man, "Too? I like you too? Why? Do you like me?" The man blinked rapidly and turned to face her, "Isn't it obvious?" He brushed her hair aside. She looked at him, their eyes meeting,

    "She's my wife," he replied with a frown. Everyone fell silent. "This is Señorita Maine." "Just call me Maine, I'm not used to being called Señorita," the woman said. "How are you all?" "You're really married, sir?" That was Jessa. She was tall and beautiful. He noticed how she looked at his wife from head to toe. The people in the back were whispering. "Why didn't we know?" "It was sudden," he replied. "Anyway, I hope you respect my wife; she's a good person." "She got upset," Demi said to him. "Chase after her if you want," he replied. "No way, you might kick me out of the room," and they both laughed. "Sir, you should have just indulged her," one of Jessa's friends said. "You know she's fond of you." "What's your name?" he asked the woman. "Lea, why?" she replied. "Do you have a boyfriend here?" "Y-yes... why do you ask?" she responded. "Would you like me to call him and have him peel the shrimp for the person next to you? How would that make you feel?" he replied. S

    As she was working on her report, her husband suddenly pulled her into the bathroom to shower together. He clearly had plans for her. It had been a week since anything had happened between them, and this man had been making her his breakfast, lunch, and dinner. She just went along with it to avoid upsetting him. After their heated moment, with a bit of showering, Demi took her to the court. She was surprised to see so many people in basketball uniforms. "Is the league today?" she asked him. "Yes, you forgot, didn’t you? I’m always on your mind," he replied with a grin. "You're so silly!" she said, pinching his side. "Ah— I love you," he said, forming a heart with his fingers. "Kiss me if you—" she started, but Demi kissed her suddenly. She was speechless. "I’m quick to respond," he said, giving her chin a playful squeeze. She noticed the Powerpuff girls glaring at her again, as if she had done something wrong. She returned their gaze, looking them up and down. "Why

    "Sir, are you a masochist?" Jessa asked him as they both got food. "Why would you ask that?" he replied, frowning at her. "Do you see those two over there? Are you really okay with Maine flirting with your friend?" she pressed. "Jessa—" Olga started to intervene, but he signaled her to stay quiet. "There's nothing wrong with what they're doing. They're just talking," he said. "But sir, you can see there's something off about their behavior, right?" Jessa insisted. "There's nothing inappropriate going on. You just have a dirty mind." "But sir—" "Jessa, please, stop bothering my wife. She's a good person. You're just insecure. I know you have feelings for me; it's widely known here. That's why you're practically naked whenever you come near me. If I wanted you, I would've pursued you. All these years, I thought you would change! Don't push me to make a decision that will make you suffer." He walked away from her without waiting for a response. "Why do you look like tha

    Demi said goodbye as he headed to town. She didn't go with him because of her report. Her thesis was almost done, so they would be heading back to Manila soon. She went out and took a walk. She saw a group of women there. She approached them. "Good afternoon," she said politely. "Oh, it's you, miss. Would you like some?" An old woman offered her a banana cue. "Oh, yes.. thank you," she sat down beside them, "how are you doing here?" "We're fine, miss," they replied. "You don't have any problems?" she asked. They looked at each other. They were all around fifty years old or older. "Could you ask sir why they deduct one hundred pesos from us every week?" an old woman asked, "in a month, that's about four to five hundred pesos." "Okay, what explanation did they give you about the deduction?" he asked. "They just said at Jessa's office that it’s for emergency purposes." "How long has this been going on?" "About five years, maybe." "Why don't you complain to Demi?"

    My uncle was lying on the floor, laughing and laughing, while the people around me were smirking as I think they knew everything about this scene. My brows furrowed, as I looked at my husband, and demanded an explanation. "I'm sorry honey. I want you to come over, but I don't know how to ask you. Because I know, you will get mad at me," he went closer to me. I raised my hand and slapped him twice. The people around us, were all shocked! They didn't say any words, even my uncle Sandro. I felt betrayed! I'm so foolish to believe them! Olga, Marisa, everyone, they make fun of me! "I'm sorry senyorita," Olga, kneeled in front of me, "we just want you to be happy. We want you and senyorito to stay together, because we know, that you love each other." "Forgive us, senyorita," Marisa also kneeled. "It's our fault. Please, forgive us.." My head was already hurting because of them. Gradually, I felt like a candle burning out. Before I could fall to the floor, Uncle Sandro and Demi caught

    "Senyorita, I have news," Olga, suddenly approached me, "Marisa told me that sir's woman are here. They're in the room together.""Really? Now? As in right now?" I confirmed with her."Yes, Senyorita. We need to go there before they leave. And you can catch them in the act," Olga urged."Alright, just a moment. I'll get dressed," I stormed into my room, took a quick shower, and dressed in something elegant and sexy. When i stepped out, Olga was surprised to see me."Senyorita, what are you wearing? Why like that? You never wear revealing clothes." she asked, puzzled"I need to dress like this so your Sir knows what he'll lose if he continues his affair with that woman. Are you sure they're there?""Yes, Senyorita. Marisa said they're definitely there. They just arrived," she confirmed."Good. Where's there... should we splash acid on them?" I asked."Oh no, Senyorita. That's too much. Just hurt them. We'll hold them," she stopped me."Alright. That might be better. The nerve of that m

    "Lola, it seems like Maine is really angry," I said to her, worried. "It looks like she'll never forgive me for what I did." "Oh, don't worry about my grandchild. I know she still looks for you. I can see it in her actions. Just don't worry too much," Lola reassured me. "But, Lola, she might be so angry that she won't come back home," I said tensely. "She'll come back. Just continue with your plan with Sandro. When does he plan to bring her there?" She took a sip of her coffee. "Sandro, Olga, and I are still discussing our plan," I replied. "Well, hurry it up. She might suddenly burst in here when you're not prepared. Are your accomplices ready?" She glanced at the door where Maine had entered. "Everything's ready, Lola. We’ve arranged everything. We might be able to execute the plan next week." I felt more confident knowing Lola was on my side. "Make sure of it. I'm running out of things to say to my grandchild whenever she asks if I'm taking your side," she said, her face sho

    I was speechless when I saw my wife, Demi, at the dining table. I couldn't confront my grandmother about why she invited Demi to our home, fearing she might get angry with me instead. I ate in silence, and Demi did the same, while Grandma watched us closely. After a while, Grandma cleared her throat. "Ahem," she said, breaking the silence. "Are you two just going to sit there quietly?" I looked at Demi, who seemed just as uncomfortable as I was. Grandma's eyes shifted between us, filled with concern. "You need to talk things out," she continued. "You can't keep ignoring whatever's going on between you." Demi and I exchanged glances, both at a loss for words. I knew she was right. "Lola, what is Demi doing here?" I asked. "I invited him. Why? Is that a problem?" she responded. "But Lola, you know we're going through something," I replied, frowning. "What are you talking about? Why don't you two just talk?" she said, her brows furrowed. "Lola, I don't think I should be here.

    "What did your senyorita say, Olga? Is she still curious about my girl?" I asked Olga when we met outside her school. "She's still waiting for news, Senyorito. And she saw the flowers you planted behind the house. She was so happy," she replied. "Really? How did she know I planted them?" I asked excitedly. "Well, there wasn't anyone else who could have planted them because she said her grandma doesn't know how to plant flowers—they always die. So, she figured out it was you when I brought the flowers to her from you," Olga explained. "Oh, what did she say? Did she like the flowers?" I asked happily. "Yes, Senyorito. She loved the flowers you planted. She couldn't believe it was you who planted them," she replied. "Why not?" I frowned at what she said. "Because she didn't know you could plant flowers. So, I told her that the flowers around your mansion were planted by you," she said, glancing at her watch. "Thank you so much, Olga. Was she really happy with the flowers,

    I continued pondering why Demi would plant the flowers he sent me at the back of the house. Shortly after, Olga approached me. "Senyorita, what are you doing at the back of the house?" she asked. "Don't you know, Olga, that someone is planting the flowers my husband sends me here at the back?" I asked her. "No, senyorita, because as you instructed, I always return them to senyorito," she replied. "Ah, I see. Because I saw them earlier and asked Lola, but she said it wasn't her who planted them. So it must have been Demi. Turns out he's quite skilled at planting flowers, isn't he?" I said to Olga. "Yes, senyorita. Over at senyorito's mansion, he plants flowers there. He's responsible for all the flowers planted on the grounds," she replied with a smile, gently touching the flowers. "Really? He never mentioned these things to me," I said, looking at the blooming flowers. "Perhaps you didn't have the chance to talk privately," she suggested, glancing at me. "We do talk abo

    I laughed when Olga told me and admitted that she really has a crush on Uncle Sandro. She said she only pretends to be angry, but deep inside, she gets thrilled and happy. I just scratched my head at what she said. "What does that girl see in my uncle? He doesn’t have any good qualities aside from being handsome. That's all he can boast about. And yes, he has money, but that's it," I thought, falling into deep contemplation. I was really thinking that perhaps Olga and I were going through similar experiences. I realized that I couldn't quite pinpoint what I liked about my ex-husband Demi either. He wasn’t really kind. He was, at first, but towards the end, he stopped listening, which is why we separated. He and my uncle really have similar personalities. No wonder they get along so well as friends. I decided to step out onto the terrace of my room to get some fresh air. As I looked around, I found joy in watching the trees swaying with the breeze. My eyes wandered to the back of

    Olga arrived at the house frowning. I thought something had happened to her. "Oh, why do you look like you had a fight outside?" I asked her. "Nothing, senyorita," she replied to me, "your kind uncle is here." "What did he do to you this time?" I asked, my forehead furrowed. "Hey, Olga, where are you going?" I heard Uncle Sandro call out to Olga. I saw how Olga's eyebrows shot up. "Oh, there’s your annoying uncle again," she said to me, hurriedly making her way to the kitchen. "Olga, I'm talking to you!" Uncle Sandro called out. "What do you need from Olga, Uncle Sandro?" I asked him. "Why is she so annoyed with you? What did you do this time?" I stopped him as he attempted to follow Olga. "Nothing! I didn't do anything to her. I was just asking her something," he replied. "So, what were you asking her?" I asked, crossing my arms in front of him. I knew it was probably some nonsense that was irritating Olga. "Nothing, I was just asking if she has a crush on me." He

    "She was really furious?" I asked happily after Olga told me about my wife's reaction. "Yes, sir. She was so angry she wanted to get violent. She even asked Marisa and me to find out when that woman you supposedly have would be coming over," Olga replied, glancing around. "Oh, and what did you tell her?" I asked, rubbing my chin thoughtfully with my thumb and forefinger. "I told Senyorita that I would talk to Marisa to find out the schedule of the woman so we could come over," Olga replied with a smile. We had met in front of her school to talk, knowing my wife never went there. "Is that so? That's great news. You really deserve a bonus for this," I said, smiling at her. "No need for that, sir. I'm doing this to help you because you've helped me a lot," she replied, blushing and smiling with her hands in her pockets. "It's nothing. I know you're a good person and you deserve the reward. Don't worry, Marisa and I will take care of you both. I'll support you all the way," I assur
