🦋Featured on The AmbassadorsNG's reading list🦋
We sometimes think we want to disappear, but all we really want is to be found. That is the case with Eshaal Akin, a troubled teenager who struggles through life with nothing going right for her. Growing up distant due to her emotionally detached parents and several personal struggles, she finds it hard to express herself, hence, unable to seek help when need be.
When eventually happiness seems to walk into her life in form of two humans, a little help from them, with a touch of love, hope and faith is perceived as all she needs to set things right, if only she lets them in. But some things do not come easy, and perhaps, happiness is one of them.
Mayhaps, to search for joy in souls is to find out everyone else is just as broken. And to be another's anchor, one has to as well drown, just like the person who needs to be saved.

Come Home, K
Kulthum is going through something. It could be a hormonal shift, another round of her "rebellious teen phase" even though she's now twenty-two, or an identity crisis. Whatever it is, Kulthum has changed. She can feel it, and everyone can see it, but no one can cite a reason for it-including her. When Kulthum comes home from her third unattained university degree, lugging more than suitcases, her parents have had enough. They decide to do what every African parent living in the United Kingdom has once threatened to do. They ship her back home to Nigeria. With a one-way first-class ticket, Kulthum finds herself stranded in the busy city of Lagos, stuck with a family she knows nothing about and surrounded by her culture, which feels completely foreign to her. Her parents hope her year abroad will cause her to have a change of heart...but Kulthum meets a man who might steal it. - - - - First Published September 28th 2024.
