“ Then look at me!” Yayi maganar cikin cool voice har sai da ta d’an sauke ajiyar . 

Sai kuma ta’ki kallan nasa , shi kuma ya matso da face d’insa dai dai tata sosai , zaiyi kissing ta kallesa , batasan lokacin da ta hararesa ba hakan yasa ya d’an murmusa gefen lips d’insa kad’an yana sakin hannunta .

Ta yun’kura zata mi’ke ta bar masa wajan, shi kuma ya d’agata ga baki d’ayanta ya d’orata akan cinyarsa…..
