“I think he went out” Doyin retorted,

“by this time of the day,” she inquired, “very unusual of him,” Deja says, and she came out and saw her husband with next house neighbors interacting and discussing the University's riot, and she returned to the living room, and asked, “didn't you bring another nightgown?“ Deja asked,

“I don't have any other one” Doyin retorted, “Is there any problems?“ Doyin asked,

“No, I don't have any problem with you wearing a nightgown but this one Is too short and transparent,” Deja said,

“am sorry,” Doyin says and she stands up and returned to the guest room, and there is a small television in the guest room, she turned the television on, and she started watching a movie on the television while Deja was expecting her to come back to the living room, and she stands up again and she headed to the upstairs, and she walked into the guest room where she met Doyin sitting down on the bed in the guest room and asked, “did I offend you with what I said about your nightgown?“ Deja asked,

“Sis, you didn't offend me, I want to sleep,” Doyin says,

“but you would have told me that you want to go and sleep, you don't need to stand up suddenly,” Deja said,

“am sorry,” Doyin says, and she pretends to be sleeping, and Deja left her, and she returned to her bedroom waiting for her husband, she sat on the bed but not sleeping, and when she heard the footsteps of her husband, she quickly pretends to sleep, and Dotun walked to the bathroom and baths, wearing his pajamas and he lay down on the bed and pretend sleeping and snoring, a few hours later, Dotun stand up and he gently dropped out of the bed and he walked to the guest room where he met Doyin sleeping, and she started touching her until Doyin woke up and say, “my love I missed you,” Dotun says,

“I missed you too,” Doyin says,

“When my wife saw you, did you notice any reaction from her” Dotun asked,

“No, she welcomed me wholeheartedly, she didn't notice anything” Doyin retorted,

And Deja waited a while and she stand from the bed and she walked out of the bedroom when she was heading downstairs, she heard her husband's voice in the guest room, and she stopped, and the discussions continued and the discussion centered on their relationship, and she wanted to open the door but she realized that her husband is a difficult person, she waited there until everywhere was silent, and she senses that they have started having sex and she wept and she returned to her bedroom pretending to be fast asleep, when her husband came back to the bedroom, and when he wanted to enter the bathroom and she called him, “Sweetie, please come”

“Am coming sweetness” Dotun says,

“No, come, I had a nightmare, very horrible and scary,” Deja says, and Dotun turned back and he sat beside her, Deja told her that she had almost forgotten the dream but she remembered that someone was chasing her with a gun” Deja narrate, and she used her hand to feel his husband body and felt toilet paper that he used to wrap his private body and she removed it and asked, “what Is this?“ Deja,

“It is nothing, I drank some local herbs today in the office and when I went downstairs, I went to ease myself in the washroom, and I discovered that something like fluid was coming out of my body and I used the tissue paper to wrapped up because don't want it to be dropping on the floor when coming to sleep” Dotun explained, “are you satisfied with my explanation?“ Dotun inquired,

“Instead of wasting the fluid, you would have called me or rushed down to the bedroom and give me maybe Almighty might answer our prayer through that” Deja says,

“Don't worry, it is abundant, It can never finish, wait until tomorrow, you will have it to the fullest” Dotun said and he smiled,

“you meant, you won't make me happy this night,” Deja asked, “you mean, you won't touch me this night” Deja Inquired, “but It is only the fluids that pour into the toilet when urinating,” Deja says, “what happens to the sperm?“ Deja asked,
