Detailed plot synopsis reviews of Stay With Me


Plot Summary Part 3


Hahahahahahaha.


MOOMI CAME TO ASK for permission the next day. She offered her condolences briskly and sat beside Yejide on our bed. “Just a few marks on his body,” she lowered her voice, “and a little whipping.”


Just a little whipping, hahahahahaha!


Dotun bangs Yejide again and she gives birth to Rotimi, kid #3.


But Dotun keeps banging Yejide even after that, and Akin discovers them in action. Yejide is so enjoying the sex that she doesn't care that Akin is watching!


When Akin walked in on Dotun and me, I shut my eyes to gather strength and raised my knees to accommodate Dotun and the only thing in focus was my husband and what he was seeing—the arch of Dotun’s back, the feverish thrust of the hips, the shudder and the collapse. Akin stood by the door, silent and unmoving until Dotun rolled off me and yelped when he noticed his brother in the room.

I like how Akin patiently waited for Dotun to finish boning his wife. Then he beat the crap out of Dotun. Evidentally Akin had told Dotun to stop banging Yejide, and the fact that he was still doing it showed that Dotun was no longer doing it as a favor to Akin but because he liked it. That's why Akin beat him up so badly he had to be hospitalized.


So Akin was upset not because Dotun was banging Yejide, but because he was banging her without his permission, this time. It seems a weak reason to be upset, doesn't it? And yet Akin acts very offended. Dotun's p_nis, still wet from Yejide's v_gina, offended him the most.


It enraged me, the still-moist, limp p_nis between his legs. I thought of where the p_nis had just been and a lifetime of rage heated up my head. I knelt between Dotun’s spread-eagled legs, grabbed his limp p_nis and twisted it.


Heheheheheheheheh.


This writer has a great way with words:


Never imagined that I would ever in seven lifetimes have to see my brother thrusting into my wife, grunting like a pig as he came.


Akin's mother Moomi is upset that Akin beat the crap out of Dotun, given that both of them had sucked on her breasts.


“You were both inside me,” she cried, slapping her belly. “The two of you sucked these breasts that are on my chest. Was my breast milk not sweet? "


Dotun moved to Australia and writes Akin but Akin refuses to write back, he is still angry at Dotun even though Dotun helped create all his kids.


Yejide at some point found out that Akin had persuaded Dotun to bone her.


Rotimi, kid #3, also has sickle cell disease, and goes for treatment.


We also learn that Akin never intended to kill Funmi. We get a flashback to the scene where Funmi dies.


“Tell me,” she said. “Tell me how a p_nis that has never been hard makes a woman pregnant? And don’t tell me again that it only happens when you are with me. I don’t believe that anymore.” And my palm did touch her face, cover her mouth for a fleeting moment before she staggered, fell backwards, and tumbled down the stairs.


Oops!


But we learn another crucial fact here--Akin can never get a hard dick. That's why Yejide never got pregnant.


So in that case, why did Akin bother getting a second wife? I guess his mother got the wife for him, not knowing about his p_nis problems, and Akin was too embarrassed to tell her the truth.


But why didn't Yejide realize something was wrong with Akin when he could never get an erection? How did they ever have sex? We are told that because Yejide was a virgin that she didn't know what sex was. How unbelievable is that, that Yejide had non-sex year after year with Akin, never having his dick inside of her, never thinking anything was wrong?


In short, this is totally unbelievable and, as it is a central part of the plot, is the biggest problem with this story.
