write how Cynthia asks about why behind cuckolding and hotwifing and Malik’s experience as a bull at the dinner. Prior scene : Malik gets up to go upstairs to grab a few things while Cynthia looks around the living room. She notices a photo album and leafs through it, seeing pictures of a younger Malik with different women, all wearing engagement rings.)

Cynthia: (to herself) Wait a minute, these women are all with Malik? But he said his wife passed away.

(Malik comes back downstairs, noticing Cynthia looking through his album)

Malik: Ah, I see you’ve found my photo album. Those were different times, before I met my wife.

Cynthia: (surprised) Different times? What do you mean?

Malik: (smiling) Well Cynthia, before I settled down, I was known as Black Stallion. I was a bull for wives.

Cynthia: (confused) A bull for wives? I don’t understand.

Malik: (educating) It’s a term used in the swinging community. I was someone who was sexually involved with other men’s wives while their husbands watched or participated. It was all consensual, and it was something that my wife and I enjoyed doing together.

Cynthia: (learning) Oh, I see. I had no idea that was a thing. What made you stop doing that?

Malik: (sighing) Well, my wife passed away, and I just couldn’t bring myself to continue after that. Losing her was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to go through, and it made me realize that life is too short to be doing things that don’t make me happy. So I stopped being Black Stallion, and I haven’t been with another woman since.

Cynthia: (sympathetically) I’m so sorry for your loss, Malik. I had no idea. Thank you for sharing that with me.

Malik: (smiling) Of course, Cynthia. I believe in being honest and open about my past. But let’s get going now, shall we? I don’t want us to be late for dinner.

(They leave his house and head out to dinner, with Cynthia feeling more connected to Malik after his honesty.)
