{CoMpLeTeD} Perrie Edwards, a journalist who decided to never trust men and the first person who knew about it was Zayn Malik, a photographer who started to work with them newly and who gained her total trust and became her first guy friend sinc...
At 3:00pm we were in front of the gates of the art center. And by we, I mean Zayn, Paul, John, Leigh-Anne and I. Leigh-Anne said that she really likes going to the art center and buying stuff because she goes to London to see her family every once in a while. I told you that she has a British accent before, she was born in England, she's of Barbadian and Jamaican ancestry.
We were already surrounded by craft and art material but we moved to a forex bureau to change our British Pounds to Ghanaian Cedis first. The art center is a place that consists hundreds of small shops for souvenirs' fans. Where you can find almost everything like crafts, paintings, carved woods, clothes, etc. And everything there was handmade. You can also find some handmade simple home decorations like tables and stuff. John already knew a man who guided us in there.
"You can find whatever you want as a souvenir in all the shops here." The man directed into the shops and you could notice clearly his African accent while he's talking in English.
The art center is counted as one of the top of the tourists' list of places to visit in Ghana. You can find African things you didn't expect to find like African masks, I brought one to hang on the wall because they were so beautiful that I had difficulties choosing one of the different looks of the masks. We could also watch the artists doing the things they will sell with their own hands, yeah, most of the sellers here are the artists themselves, they make art and sell it and this was what amused me the most. The sellers were so organized and would have done anything for you to buy their things, like, they were waiting for us out of the forex bureau and when we got out, they were there, asking if we needed anything and showing us their products.
They have the charisma of not getting annoyed of any customer even if they keep asking about random weird annoying stuff without buying, like I did, they keep their smiles on their faces and talk softly like if they were paid for that! There was this woman who was talking to me about how her necklaces were amazing and colorful that I could wear them on different outfits and when I told her that I don't really like big necklaces and the ones that are so over-decorated she simply and softly told me 'thank you for not buying anything from me and I hope the next time you will' and this made me feel sad because, she was so polite and calm, and I had to buy few necklaces even if I won't use them.. I couldn't help myself, those people are amazing and the city was so clean and I would have liked it if we walked a little but we were tired of staying in that center for almost 5 hours buying stuff and bringing them wherever we went!

We put all the bags in the doorway and we really needed to change our clothes because they were so sweaty, and we moved to Leigh's favorite restaurant. It had a French and Algerian cuisine, and 4.5 stars. John excused because it was his weekend to take care of the kids while his wife goes out with her friends.
"Guys let's play my favorite game until the waiter comes!" Leigh suggested. "It's called 'what if', you say 'what if something imaginary happens' and everyone will say a conclusion to what would happen." She explained. "Let me start!" Zayn said. "What if social media didn't exist?" "I wouldn't have my current job." I said, my articles are posted online and people know more about us form our page on Facebook and our account on Twitter... It wouldn't work without the media. "I wouldn't know Paul before we met." Leigh answered. "We were internet best friends before meeting." Paul said as he smiled looking at Leigh who was also laughing. GOALS. "NOW IT'S MY TURN!" I said loud enough for everyone to hear me. "What if dogs could talk in our language?" "Dogs would be on TV saying the news." Zayn said and we all laughed. "They will be the real investigators without the help of humans." Leigh said giggling as we all did. "Dogs would disclose our secrets to the neighbors' dogs!" Paul said as the waiter paused the menus in front of each of us and because he's heard what Paul said, he was ready to kick us all out.
