Dunni sat quietly in her room. She stared at her phone, with a cigarette in her between her fingers. Timmy has advised her to pick up courage to fix a meeting o discuss with the wife of the deceased but she hasn't been able to.

She sucked a cigarette then puffed up the smoke. She finally dialed the number dropping the phone on the bed, just when she made a self decision to hang up, she heard a voice say, "Hello"

She shut her eyes as her heart beat fast, "Hello, is there anyone there?" The woman asked and she picked up the phone placing it against her ears.

"Am I speaking to Mrs Ekanem?" She asked, "Yes. Is this Doctor Dunni Duncan?" Mrs Ekanem asked on recognizing the voice.

"Yes"

"My doctor!" The woman's voice cane alive, she seemed excited to hear her voice. "How are you?"

"I'm fine Ma, what about you?" "It is well" "Condolence once again"

"Hm! It is well"

"I was hoping we could meet and talk"

"No wahala"

"Will tomorrow be okay?"

"I have work and I arrive by 6, unless you can stop by at that time thereabout. Is it something Important?"

"Yes it is."

"Can't you shift it to another day?"
"The earlier the better Ma"

"Will Tomorrow evening be fine by you?"

"Sure, send an address Ma"

Efe kissed Dara's neck as they both watched a movie in the sitting room. "The movie is not even over yet" she complained and he cupped her chin looking into her eyes then he sighed.

"God you're pretty. I'd rather just watch your beautiful eyes all night" he complimented now planting a kiss on her lips and she kissed him too and he rubbed her arm.

"Um.... Efe, wait" she begged but he continued kissing her, "Efe" she groaned and Odion who was watching the scene from the room entered into the room sitting on the couch with them.

"How far Dara?"

Dara sighed in relief, "Odion, take God!" Efe glared at him, giving him the leave us alone look but he ignored it!

"When the movie start sef? What's the title?"

Efe escorted Dara out after the movie. He glared at Odion on entering into the house. "Dara don go?" "No oh, she go piss for backyard, you no see her bag for where you sit down?" He snapped and Odion laughed.

"Oga calm down, which one come be vex now?"

"I didn't see anything oh, I just noticed you two were watching a movie and I went in. I never knew I was interrupting anything" he lied and he hissed leaving.

"Oga why you con dey vex?" He asked letting out a loud hiss.

After putting his children to sleep Funsho entered into his room turning on the light switch to find Omotoyosi in bed, she was dressed in a red night gown with a high slit that stopped at her thigh. "Oko mi" she called out and he gasped.
