Raymond and his wife were having lunch together at the dinning table, she started her irritating character, the lunch was semo and banga soup prepared by Mrs Ray.

The food was so delicious but her eating habits was too bad, her hands were filled with soup. He felt disgusted “we would have used spoon instead of eating with bare hands” he began
“how can we be eating swallow with spoon? You have your own problems ” She said
“Did you just say that to me? ” he asked
“sure we are just two here and you know I’m referring to no one but you. If you are tired of eating or you don’t like the food just tell me let me get another one for you instead of making face like pregnant woman ” she said

He looked at her in surprise, he never knew she had the guts to speak to him in such a manner, he thought she would keep licking his feet for his funny attitude.
He washed his hands gently to avoid quarel, she ignored him and continued eating, she berged very loud causing him to mumble.

“What’s the problem? ” she asked facing him
He contemplated within himself on how to tell her about her dirty character without hurting her feelings but he couldn’t figure out what to say “you are too dirty for my liking ” he blurted out without intending to but was fed up.

She stared at him for long before crying “I’m now a dirty lady right? You are heartless and wicked ” she said and walk away.
“Whatever, you need to know the truth that’s all I care for ” he said and left the dinning table.
