BEING A TEEN SERIES: BIMBO (BOOK 4) That line, that fucked up imaginary line. I like you, you like Bose, Bose likes John, John likes Feyi, Feyi like Kunle, Kunle like Jumoke, Jumoke likes Daniel, Daniel likes me. We all know that fucked up imaginary "love" circle. The people we like never like us back. They either like someone and that someone else ends up liking you or that usual crazy line. One sided love is something nobody wishes for, everybody wants the people we love to us back and however for everybody, that's not the case. For Adewole-Adedeji Abimbola, hers was the complete opposite. She had liked Paul for a long time;since their preschool days and the latter barely acknowledged her. He hated her being around him and being around him was something Bimbo enjoyed. Until Paul asked her best friend to be his girlfriend and despite the both knowing her feelings, they both went ahead to date each other and so Bimbo lost three things. She lost her dream guy, she lost her best friend and she also lost her heart. She was too heartbroken and became cold and distant to everyone. Her character took on a new phase as she shut everyone out. She focused on her books and topped the class leaving both her best friend and Paul running after her. With her new cold and indifferent attitude, she barely noticed a particular someone who had eyes on her since forever. But she never noticed him. Meet Adeleke Jeremiah, Boston International College, social prefect. Tall, lean and he had an amazing athletic build. He played football too and the whole female population had eyes on him but Jeremiah enjoyed being low profile. What on earth that attracted him to his one year junior;he couldn't decipher it at all. He even went ahead to stalk her on IG and someone he was on her contact list yet they never spoke. When Jeremiah is assigned to her class as her Prep Captain, sparks finally fly. Sometimes, who we want is not the best for us.

❝You'll always be the Golden Boy, but deep down, you're just an empty trophy.❞ **** Natalia Winters knows all about second place. For years, she's been clawing her way to the top-meticulously planning, studying until her vision blurs, and sacrificing sleep for success-all to keep up with everyone else's effortless brilliance. She's the girl who never feels good enough, who measures her worth against grades and achievements, who works twice as hard just to avoid falling into the void of mediocrity. And at every step of the way, there's Noah West: her lifelong rival, her mirror image of perfection, and her greatest source of frustration. Now, as senior year hurtles toward its finale, Natalia is determined to prove she's more than second best. But when Leo Martinez-Noah's best friend and the kind of charming that feels effortless-enters the picture, Natalia starts to believe she might deserve more than a life spent measuring up. Caught between her relentless drive for success and feelings she can no longer ignore, Natalia must face a terrifying truth: what if the perfection she's chasing isn't what she wants? And what if the boy she's spent years trying to outshine is the one who truly sees her? _______________________________________________________________________________ Start Date: 05.05.20 End Date: 29.05.20 Word Count: [[90,000-100,000]] #1 in TeenFiction 12/09/20 #1 in Abuse 09/11/20 100.000 Reads: 17/10/20 200.000 Reads: 12/06/21 240.000 Reads: 27/09/24

After a long anticipated party hosted by one of the most popular boys in school, a rumour goes round the entire school and gets the names of the two least expected classmates, in the mouths of the entire population of Castron High. One word: Madness. 𝑫𝒂𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒖𝒄𝒉𝒊 𝑶𝒓𝒋𝒊 - a major 'outcast', a girl who barely escaped being at the full disadvantaged end of the Social hierarchy, because she was saved, hidden, and protected under the wings of one of the most highly placed cliques in her set - realises that as a result of this ridiculous and unexpected rumour, she may just be about to bite more than she can chew. Unspeakable dares are passed on. Sealed pledges are made, the worst of pairs are forced to match-make, secrets are revealed, the mystery behind the strangest, most unusual people are discovered, and the most dangerous games are played when the notorious gang boys/hoodlums, known for terrorising the school come into the whole story, thirsty for blood. Most alarming yet, an outcast who has always been the centre of attention for the wrong reasons and a damaged playboy with narcissistic traits dare to fall in love in a world that forbids them to. In the end, all that's left to realise it that every teenager is one way broken and needs saving. ❦︎ In a world where home is equivalent to Hell, and Highschool is a society, reeking of vanity, where social hierarchy is the order of the day, and the madness to maintain status quo is a much bigger deal than it should be, anyone is bound to lose their goddamn mind. Two broken teenagers, living the same unbearable reality, and struggling to know who they are, find solace, and a means of escape, with each other. But is it really worth it?
