TECHNICAL VIRGIN
EPISODE 59(unedited)
“You want to bath alone?” He asked, trying to understand her reasons but she just said
“Yes” and kept quiet without looking at him.
“Alright, go ahead and bath alone if that’s what you want.” He said and climbed over the bed.
“No, you go and bath first while i get myself ready.” She replied and he smiled dryly then climbed down from the bed and entered the bathroom.
“Please, help get my towel and soap..” He shouted from the bathroom and switched the showers on.
“You know you would need them but entered the bathroom without collecting them.” She shouted back to him.
“Yes, I want my wife to bring them to the bathroom for me.” He said laughing, then continued.
“Please hurry up, I’m waiting for the soap.” He said and she grudgingly collected the towel and soap,walked gently close to the bathroom door and stretched her hand out for him to collect them.
“Here they are.” She said from outside the door.
“Come inside please, am in the bathtub and I can’t climb down now.” He replied laughing inside his heart as his plan was to pour water on her and then pull her into the bathtub to bath with him.
“Brother Kehinde, you have to climb down o, because am not entering that bathroom either.” She said, pretending to be angry.
”Sweetheart, there’s no snake inside here. Bring the soap for me to bath before cold enters my body. I’m freezing here o.” He said, faking seriousness.
“Oh…! Brother Kehinde, you are looking for trouble o. Why didn’t you carry this thing along with you in the first place.” She angrily entered the bathroom, looking away from him and just as she was about handling the soap over to him, he grabbed her hands instead and stirred the water violently wetting her body wet in the process.
“Haba! Brother Kehinde look at what you have done now.” Not expecting that he would pour water on her, she flared up, then continued.
“Please, leave my hand.” She struggled to break loose from his hold.
” Sorry my love ,since you are already wet,just join me let’s bath together.” He said trying to pull her into the tub.
“Leave me, brother Kehinde leave me alone.” She struggled and he had to release her seeing that she was determined not to bath with him and she hastened out of the bathroom.
Few minutes later, he came out from the bathroom smiling but she wore a frown.
“I’m sorry sweetheart, was just trying play with you. You can now go and have your bath.” he said trying to touch her but she stood up and started walking into the bathroom with everything she needed.
He turned around and looked at her again as she entered the bathroom,finding it difficult to understand why she was acting strange.
He swallowed hard then continued to clean his body, applied his favorite roll-on and perfume then climbed over to the bed. He lay on the bed, pressing his phone and waiting for her to come but it took like eternity for Sade to come out of the bathroom.
“Sweetheart, are you still there?” He asked teasingly with a raised voice.
“Yes.” She responded.
“Do you need my help?” He asked, laughing to himself.
“No!!!” She replied almost immediately and he bursted into a loud laugh. It was getting to almost an hour that Sade entered the bathroom and he was beginning to feel sleepy, but he kept struggling to stay awake but his tired body couldn’t struggle much longer as he surrendered to the power of nature and slept off…
Jumoke’s phone rang at some minutes past 9pm and she picked it up with a smile.
“Hello, good evening pastor Mike.” She said calmly. Mike had collected her number from the church mummy and since then, they had been talking over the phone morning, afternoon and night. Though she was yet to know his intention but she always felt happy hearing his voice and always longed for his calls.
“Good evening sister Jumoke, how you?” He asked at the other end.
“I’m fine sir.” She replied.
“So, how did your brother’s wedding go? So sorry, i planned driving down to meet you there at the reception venue but the power of God came down mightily in the program during my ministration and we ended up staying longer than expected.
Thank you for praying for me.” He said with a smile and she blushed.
“Glory to God for that.” She said then continued.
“The wedding was a huge success. I actually met an old school friend who kept me company all through and I enjoyed every bit of my stay with him.” She replied smiling.
“Oh! A him?” Mike asked feeling a little bit jealous.
“Yeah. Doctor Iyk by name. We were together back then in the university and…” She was talking but Mike’s whose heart was racing faster didn’t hear one bit of everything she was saying.
“He’s married too?” He deliberately asked trying to get more information about the old school friend who had kept the woman after his heart company.
“Married? Not at all, he’s still a vibrant young bachelor. Why did you ask?” She queried noticing his tone.
“Nothing ,” He said, breathed down then continued.
“Jumoke, I’ve been thinking of asking you this question, I hope you don’t mind?” He said, determined to start up something with her before going back.
“What’s that?” She asked inquisitively.
“I don’t really know how to put it, but are you in any serious relationship?” He asked, rubbing his forehead with the other hand and silence followed…
Kehinde woke up at some minutes past 12am to find Sade sleeping a little distance away from him on the large bed. He frowned at the sight of the clothes she was putting on, she wore a skirt and blouse to bed and he couldn’t understand where she got that choice of bed wear from.
He drew closer to where she was lying and touched her cheek,then her waist and she woke up and pushed him back from her.
“Baby, it’s our honeymoon. Let’s add spices to it.” He said but she replied.
“I’m tired.
” Okay, I understand you, stressed a lot yesterday. Let me massage your body, it will help your body bounce back easily. “he said but she didn’t respond so he took her silence for an approval then took a kneeling position on the bed and made to pull off her blouse, she quickly pushed his hands away.
” Brother Kehinde! ” she shouted and jumped down from the bed.
“What’s the problem?” The confused Kehinde asked…

EPISODE 60 (unedited)
“What’s the problem?” The confused Kehinde asked but she wouldn’t say a word.
“It’s alright my dear. Sorry for disturbing you.” He said after some minutes of silence and climbed back to the bed,cover his body with the duvets and slept off.
She entered the bathroom and wash her teary face, then joined him in bed avoiding bodily contact with him.
Kehinde woke up as early as 4am for his quiet time and made to touch her again but stopped in order to avoid her tantrums. He climbed down the bed entirely, went and sat on the single cushion in the hotel room and started praying. She was woken by the sound of his heartfelt prayers and couldn’t sleep anymore, so she sat up on the bed watching him.
“What’s wrong with me?” She asked herself silently. “God!” She bewailed with her eyes tightly closed.
He continued in prayers and sang diverse spirit filled worship songs along with the prayer. At exactly 5am, he summarized his prayers and on standing up to go wake her for morning devotion, he saw her sitting on the bed with her eyes tightly closed and tears pouring down to her cheeks.
“Sweetheart, what’s happening? Did I do something you don’t like?” He asked and held her hands then knelt down beside her bedside.
She opened her eyes and quickly wiped off the tears in her eyes and she shook her head negatively.
“Please talk to me. What’s bothering you?” He pleaded but she was not ready to talk.
“I’ll be fine.” She said in brief and hardened her face.
“Can we do family devotion together?” He asked, trying hard to avoid anything that will make her angry and she nodded her head in the positive.
“Give me your hands.” He requested as he climbed over the bed and she did. Angry in his spirit, he closed his eyes tightly and started praying with much ardor and fire in his belly, rebuking whatever spirit behind Sade’s sudden strange attitude and she sat there crying her eyes out.
“Amen!” were the only words coming out of her mouth with whimpers.
He continued in the prayers so intensely for close to an hour that he was sweating profusely under the air condition in the room.
After the prayer, he wiped off his sweat with a face towel ,then picked up his bible and began to teach the word of God from the scriptures.
She felt relieved after the bible teaching and told him that she wanted them to check out of the hotel and he agreed, though he wanted them to stay in the hotel for at least one week.
They arrived Kehinde’s duplex in the evening of that day and he showed her around the house.
“This is your house, whatever you want me to do, eat, say here, is what I’ll do ma.” He said teasingly and she smiled.
“So,what’s my wife cooking for us to eat. Your baby is very hungry.” He said and rubbed his tommy funnily in a way that made her laugh.
“What do you want to eat?” She asked laughing.
“Jollof rice with moderate pepper.” He replied, then continued.
“And I’m going to stay with you in the kitchen to learn how to cook.” He said laughing.
“Since we are back to the house, we have to go and bring Toyin to the house. I’m missing her already.” He said and walked out of the kitchen to get his phone which was ringing and she stood in awe watching him as he was walking out.
“Though I’ve not been treating him fine, he’s still acting nice.” She told herself thoughtfully.
Kehinde made up his mind not to make any sexual advances towards her again until she is ready herself, so he cracked jokes to make her laugh and showed her more care without touching her for the whole of that night and the next day. He deliberately wore shorts in the house all through, revealing his fair hairy chest and legs even during the bible studies and prayers until the third night, when he was fast asleep that a feminine hand touched him.
“Are you alright?” He asked when he opened his eyes and saw Sade sitting up.
“Yes…No.” She replied trying to pull herself together.
“Yes,no. Which should I take?” He teased her ,looking into her eyes.
“Brother Kehinde, I’m sorry about my recent attitude. Just that I feel very insecure about my body.” She said bending her head and he was taken aback and looked at her again.
“Your body? What happened to your body?” He asked her sitting up properly.
“Uhm… I feel that..my body would not be attractive to you since I have breastfed a baby before. I’m no longer..…” She began to complain bitterly and he had to cut her short.
“Hey, hey..Stop Sweetheart.” He hushed her, then continued.
“I didn’t marry your body. It’s you, your soul am married to not your body. Look, even if you had never breastfed a baby before, you will still breastfeed me and my kids, and there’s no way your body can remain the same. If I don’t find your body attractive because you breastfed only Toyin, it means that I would not find you attractive after breastfeeding my own kids also. Even if I had married another girl who had never breastfed a baby, her breast would still fall.” He began frankly, drew closer to her, then continued.
“No woman remains the same after her first issue. But a man who loves God will love his wife faultlessly just as Jesus loved his bride,the church which was full of spots and wrinkles; he loved her still and gave his life for her. Listen to me, When old age comes and you start having wrinkles, it won’t be your body that would make me to keep loving you, it’s your soul and that’s what attracts me in you from the first time I met you. I love you the way you are my wife…” He said smiling and she became shy but he was determined not to touch her first until he is sure she needs him.
“Thank you brother Kehinde.” She said smiling from ear to ear.
“Please, stop calling me that name ‘brother Kehinde.” he said feigning annoyance then continued.
“There’s nothing romantic in that name.” He said then lay down and turned his face away from her.
“It’s her turn to make the move towards me, I would just lie down here and wait for her.” He said laughing in his heart seeing the desire in her eyes.
She sat down looking at him and praying in her heart that he make the usual advances but he didn’t, and the next thing she heard was the sound of his snoring. Kehinde deliberately began to snore with his eyes tightly closed as if he was truly sleeping in order to zero her mind from expecting him to come for her.
She lifted her hand to touch him several times but quickly dropped it and he kept laughing in his heart waiting for a touch which finally came after few minutes of her struggling. He opened his eyes and turned his face to look at his shy wife and the rest is history…

EPISODE 61(unedited)
Two weeks after their honeymoon, Kehinde was praying and writing down things about a very pressing burden which woke him up as early as 2am while his wife was still fast asleep.
“Lord, how do you want me to go about it.
Where do you want me to start and what’s the message?” He was asking God earnestly in prayer when suddenly Sade woke up and sat down on the bed thoughtfully.
Though his eyes were tightly closed in prayers, he felt it that his wife had woken up, so he looked towards their bedside and found her in thoughts.
“Darling, are you alright?” He asked and stood up from where he was sitting at the study table to join her.
” I had a dream.” She replied.
“Tell me about it.” He said and sat down very close to her.
“In that dream, I had covered a along thorny distance then found myself on a new path. On this new path, the journey was easy and seemed more meaningful as I saw myself joyfully picking up broken pitchers along the road with me on that journey.
”What do you intend doing with those broken vessels?” a grey headed old man in white asked me.
“I don’t really know sir. I just felt like carrying them along with me, perhaps they may be useful to me someday.” I replied the old man.
“No, their usefulness is not only for you but basically for God’s glory. You are only meant to mend the broken pitchers along with your husband through the wisdom of God, your gifts, your lifestyles and resources.” The man told me.
“How on earth can these be mended? They are broken beyond repair sir.” I said in disbelief and he smiled.
“There’s no broken vessel that’s beyond the repairing grace and power of God. These broken pitchers you see represent the thousand of young people you will meet in this new phase of your life, they are wounded, broken, confused and tired of the kind of lives they had been living and are waiting for a saving touch. Remember, you were once a broken vessel but God used Kehinde to mend and beautify you; so now that you have been strengthened ,you must join him in the ministry of mending broken people and strengthen them.
All that’s expected of you is to make yourself and marriage available as an instrument for their mending.” The man told me.
“But how do we go about it?” I asked in confusion.
“Start from your house.” The man replied almost immediately, then continued.
“First, let your life and marriage showcase Christ to the world around you. You are to reach out to young people, bring them closer and feed them. They are famished but not for physical food, you have the water and your husband the solid food and you both are to feed them with balance diet. Go ahead and pick more..” The old man urged me then turned back and left me.
“Oh! Thank you Jesus for confirming your words to me and answering the questions I’ve been asking.” Kehinde said excitedly and she looked at him wondering what he’s talking about.
“Darling, you know I’ve lived a rough life in the past and sometimes I wish I can restore the wasted years. I have been having this desire to reach out to young people for a long time but I don’t know how to go about, so this morning the burden became too much that I couldn’t sleep anymore and I was just praying and asking for direction when I noticed that you are awake.” He explained to her, feeling elated.
“You see why you are my rightful wife? You are my purpose partner and helper.” He said and hugged her tightly, kissed her forehead repeatedly and ran back to get his hardcover journal where he had written so many things about the burden and she just sat down there smiling at him.
“Look here, I’ve been writing about this vision since 2010 till date. But God have just used you to give me a clear picture of what and how he want us to do it. My beautiful wife, thank you once again for marrying me.” He said beaming with smiles.
“Darling, you know what? Sometimes when you appreciate me like this, I begin to wonder why?
I should be the one thanking you, first for not giving up on me when everyone gave up on me, for allowing God use you to restore me back, for taking away my shame and honouring me among women..” She started, breathed down then continued.
“When I call you my crown, I mean it from the depth of my heart because you brought me victory and honor. Whatever is expected of me to do to see that your purpose which have also become my purpose is achieved, I will join you to do it.
Baby,I renew my vow again to love you, stand by you, fight for you and run this race with you now and always till the end of our sojourn here on earth. Thank you for marrying me, you are the best husband in the world.” She said and drew closer into his arms in a hug and…….
Jumoke’s call woke them up that morning as early as 6am.
“Oma oba, good morning sir.” Her voice was heard over the phone as he received the call with the left hand and Sade’s head rested on his right arm.
“Good morning Jumo, how are you?” He replied.
“Am fine, how is sister Sade?” She inquired.
“She is fine. Are you alright?” He asked almost immediately.
“Yeah, am fine.” She replied then continued.
“But I need your help and guidance. I have two marriage proposals before me right now but I don’t know which to accept because I seems to like the both of them within a short period of time.” She revealed calmly and he sat up properly helping Sade to rest her head on the pillow.
“Jumo, are they born again?” He asked for a start.
“Yes, one is a Pastor based in the US and the second person is Doctor Iyk your friend.” She replied shyly.
“Jumo, that’s a good development. I will be the happiest person if Iyk my friend happens to be the will of God for you in marriage. But you have to put your emotions on hold for now because you must get it right maritally. We have to pray first to hear what God has to say about the both of them before you release your heart to anyone or accept any marriage proposal.” He counseled her carefully and she responded positively.
“Okay, how do we go about the prayers?” She queried.
“Uhm… Let me discuss with my wife and see how we can join hands with you in prayers.” He said then continued.
“But for now, just pray and ask the Lord to open your eyes to know whom His will for you in marriage is. He’ll surely speak to you.” He concluded.
“Thank you oma Oba.” She greeted him.
“Is she awake let me greet her?” She asked and he handed her the phone.
“Sister Jumo, we must drink your coke and fanta this year o.” Sade teased her over the phone.
“I pray so o, please you people should be praying for me o.” Jumoke replied laughing.
“Yes dear,we have been praying for you and soon God will perfect all that concerns you.” Sade assured her and they talked about other things before ending the call.
Kehinde and Sade discussed and agreed to invite her over to their house in order to pray with her and also strengthen their relationship with her.
Two days later, Jumoke visited them for the prayer and they held hands together in prayers after they had had quality time of bible study…
