"Sarauniya!" I said almost loudly but not enough for my friend Bilal to hear, "who is she?" "Aaliyah. She's the late Alhaji Mujib's daughter. " Bilal said seeming uninterested with the topic. "Ina gidan su?" I asked, sounding a bit like a crazy stalker. "Ka kamu da ciwon so ko?" He asked as a smile spreads across his face, "They live in Asokoro district. Remember Aunty Shamsiyya? The place isn't far from your habibty's home too." "Ok, thank you. Allah ya maka albarka." "Let me know when to be expecting an invitation card." Hamza said while trying to stifle his laughter but fails woefully and I smack him on his arm as payback, joining him to laugh too. I wanted to follow her and speak to her but I heard the music start, signaling the commencement of Bilal's cousin Nadiya and her groom; Saleem's overpriced dinner party for both families. #WattysNG2020 **** This is Aaliyah's story from grass to grace as she faces obstacles created by her aunt who has done nothing but torture her since her parents death.

What is your spec? I mean those qualities you desire your future partner to possess? Definitely not being way below in the social ladder right? Especially when you are the lady in the picture. Amarachi Jessica Okpara, alias, Ajay also thought the same way. Being a successful career woman with a pretty face and nice body, she couldn't settle for less..... Or so she thought... Until she met the one who changed her life.... ************************************************** That was when I noticed how close he was to me. His huge manly figure towering over me like I was something he wanted to protect, like I was a precious gem he found. Could he be the man God has chosen for me? Because judging from events, he was the first man I saw after my long night vigil. But then I took another good look at him. I cringed at my own thoughts. 'Ewww! Ajay, how could such a lame thought creep into your lousy head?' God will definitely not give me such an ugly-faced illiterate. I got away from him immediately. "Aunty your phone...." He called, running to meet me. He handed the phone to me giving me that same sheepish smile. And again I was disappointed that I could think of this irritating guy as an option. Jeez! Definitely not what I want! DEFINITELY NOT MY SPEC! ************************************************* A 17+ novel Impressive Rankings 1- #Africa🤭🤭🤭❣️ 1- #specifications 1- #nigeriannovel 2- #Igbo 2- #Lagos Amazing cover by Me☺️☺️ Photo credit: Mercy Eke UNEDITED‼️ Started: May 2021 Ended: April 2022

It also broke my heart when I decided to follow you home, and saw the hardship life you were living." "In a nutshell," I wanted her to hit the nail on the head. Not because I wanted to sound rude, but because my legs were aching me from standing for too long. "I need your help," She paused her lips. "Which involves being me." ~°~°~°~°~ Uyai is far from being rich. And when we talk about far, we meant FAR. Uyai wasn't a people person. She didn't have much friends, except from her best friend, Judith. Judith was someone, whom was obsessed with rich Lekki secondary school boys. On a faithful day, Judith got invited to a rich beach party and forced Uyai, to tag along. Uyai so much hated the rich kids, cause she believed they were tinie tiny no good spoilt brats. But things began to change for Uyai, when she accompanied Judith to the party, and saw what she believed must be her clone, or her brain just playing tricks on her. Uyai began to receive an anonymous letter, from someone whom identified herself as 'T'. What would happen when 'T' reaches up to Uyai, claming to be her long lost twin, and also asking for help, to act as her?
