“ He went into the kitchen to get some biscuits. She came behind him, squeezed her breast and Tommy on his back. Saybom could feel the warmth of her titts on his back. He could feel the beating of her heart. Hot blood ran down his veins. He turned round quickly, and she pulled her face away just in time to avoid a sensational kiss. She ran quickly out of the kitchen into the hall. She went and sat down where Saybom sat before. She took a book for the reading session. He still did not get the clear strong message she was sending up to now. (Page 57) Saybom misinterpreted this message and her intentions and he reacted negatively towards her. He forgot that that was the first time they were together and she could not share a bed with him right away which was understandable but Saybom failed to see the other side of the story. He ignored the negative side of the coin. The intimate conversations seized to exist and Saybom felt lonesome. He was in the hotel balcony looking down the spiral staircase to the foyer when a voice said to him “Women are gullible and they never mean exactly what they say. A no answer is not always a no but a test of your will and skills in dealing with her. Remember you are not in Africa where you can force a woman into submission’ (page85)
