"Come on, honey. I’ll make you comfortable. " Charlie squinted and began to stroke Grace’s back tenderly.
Grace said, "It's already midnight. I'm tired, and I’ve to go to the restaurant tomorrow. You can see the pornographic movie."
Charlie was speechless.
Grace took no heed of him and went to the bathroom.
Then Charlie suddenly had an idea and followed Grace.
But Grace locked the bathroom door before he stepped in.
Charlie touched his nose awkwardly and
turned away. And then he took the laptop to the bed.
Grace got into bed after taking a sip of milk, "Sounds like this woman enjoys it."
"I can make you enjoy it, too. Really." Charlie averted his eyes from the laptop screen and looked at Grace eagerly.
Grace shot him a sullen glare, snapped the laptop shut, and yawned, "Be careful of suffering."
Charlie clung to Grace at once, "I'm really good. Would you like to have a try?"
"Nope!" Grace had little interest in that and pushed his hands away, "I have no energy. It's late. I've to sleep!"
"Do you have the heart to make me suffer like this?" "Golly, I'm bushed. I'm going to sleep. You can go to the bathroom and solve it by yourself."
No sooner had Grace finished than Charlie heard her quiet, regular breathing.
Charlie tried to shake her, but there was no reaction.
He sighed with profound resignation and tucked her in. "I'm sorry to let you down, bro." He said to himself.
