"I don't understand, what do you mean by, you can't have children, Is it that you don't want to have children or what? Don't you like children?"

Amaka looked at him, as tears continued to stream down her cheeks, Dele looked confused, it's hurts her to see him like this.

"I. Can't. Have. Children! Dele I'm sorry"

"I still don't understand, why? Why can't you have children? What happened, are you sick or something? Please put me in the know because I'm lost here"

"It is what it is Dele, I'm infertile, I can't have kids"

Dele kept quiet for while, staring at her as she buried her face in her hands crying. He tried to make sense of what she just told him but couldn't.

"Babe please talk to me, why can't you have children?" He held her hands.

Amaka cleaned her tears, and faced him.
