*please I wrote this story at 16/17. I'm 28 and I crying because I would rewrite this in a heartbeat especially coz I sound crazy* so read with caution*
I fell in love.
I fell in love with a fairytale.
Oh Yes I did. You know that one story that gives every little girl hope out there that good things comes to those who wait even in rare but simple gems like a glass slipper.
This hope carried me far and beyond.
It's a fairytale that is relatable to any prospect of life. There will be your evil stepmother and evil stepsisters, your fairy godmother and your one true prince.
It is a fairytale that understands the element of surprise: That what we seek can sometimes appear right in front of us without knocking on our doors.
Most especially, it's a fairytale that understand the importance of love: A true prince may not come in shape of perfection but regardless of the imperfections and flaws, he would still remain perfect in your eyes.
Regardless of its flaws, Africa was my father and Nigeria was my prince. Africa was my birthplace, born to the greatest warriors on the planet: Shaka Zulu, Nelson Mandela, Cleopatra, Kofi Annan even Didier Drogba the famous footballer. Most especially it was my home. It was the place I learnt to walk, talk, run and now 200000 feet above the ground I look down at my home. Little lights flickering everywhere like fireflies contrasting with the dark night. Maybe one day I will come back to my father. My prince. My Ile.

Emotional Writings Dump
Sooooo this is gunna be out here, my first Wattpad booky. Y'all just a warning, (even tho you can probably tell by the description already) I write, A LOT so if you're bored and got some time, come on down! Disclaimer, this booky boi has no plot or order buuutttt maybe there's a time line? This book is pretty much a dump of writings that I make for myself from time to time. I don't often put a date with them but it is what it is. Some of them were during the summer before my first year of high school. Others are just strong feelings I've faced at one point in this year. Lots are probably just me writing about when I had someone I loved in my life. Keep in mind any new chapters or addings are probably here because I'm facing that junk in life rn. But yeah, lots of writings are kinda sad so if you're not looking to be in a sad child mood then I recommend a skips on this bookaru. I'm not on Wattpad to much, only to check on my fan girl things, (but I'm often in dead fandoms) and look for cool comics n stuff, so this book might get ignored until I find something to complain about in like, five months. Y'all this a big warning, I didn't really spell check this child and I'm kinda cringing right now, realizing how stupid this book is gunna be but my notes are getting full. Also most of these might be incomplete cuz even on a rampage, my fire just burns out and suddenly I get writers block (but mostly it's probably cuz I write loads of these at like three am). I'll probably add some little authors note at the end because I'm scared and because these are like, extremely personal. (Fr they probably got the names of real human peoples in them but no one will ever find mine booketh). Another Disclaimer; this book is not intended in anyway to be of use or of advice to anyone about anything, this book is pretty much just storage.... I started this book baby on : 9/4/18 An I done finished this o boi on : ion know yet, probably never. Sike it be done on : 9/23/18Complete
Delirium: Crash & Burn
" What's your name?" a deep gentle voice elevated above my head, like the voice of God. I looked up and met a pair of piercing blue eyes. He smiled, a small sexy grin, exposing his perfect teeth, his cheeks dipped inwards revealing small caves of dimples. His skin was tan and dusted lightly with freckles, his hair was dark and effortlessly messy as if he had just gotten out of bed. He too had a series of tattoos on his forearms, none of them connected, each tattoo separate. I couldn't help my eyes from roaming. He was strikingly handsome. •❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅• A dark twist on a classic teen fiction. A story written through four very different perspectives. A world full of bad boys, parties, drugs, and lies. But it's more than the typical teen story. In this dark teen fiction each character has a complex and serious back story and each character has to overcome the lies, love, lust, and trauma that they face. A story about experiencing first times, overcoming hard times and finding your true self in due time. DISCLAIMER: This story includes themes of suicide, terrorism, drugs, and sex- Please read with that in mind. Note: This version on Wattpad is unedited and the first draft- I am currently doing the second and then I will do the third draft of this book. Hopefully one day it will be published- THIS IS NOT THE FINAL FINISHED BOOK.CompleteAbout the novel
In my shoes (Completed)
I really want to say that I cried because of how he humiliated me in front of the king. But no, I knew the truth. I liked him and somewhere deep down, I thought that there was a tiny chance he liked me too. That he was making me do all these things to keep me busy so, that he did not see me all the time because I was a distraction? I don't know really, but some part of me wanted to believe that there was a chance, even if it was small. But with what happened today, I knew that, that was a lie. He hated my guts. And that truth hurt. That was why I cried. XXXXX *started: 7th October 2020 * finished: 12th February 2021 I don't own any of these photos.

Did I Ever Love Her ?
I write, what I see around me I pen, what is experienced by me I express, what is felt by me. Presenting a cut of my experience and sights from today's generation by the teen-gen. What is love - is it an inheritance or a noble cause of mankind ? What happens when a guy falls in love and what changes around when a girl feels being loved ? Stories of the gods and goddesses, the cult romantic movies, the nature inducing within the nature are itself great examples of love and what happens when love takes a form. Coin can be tossed in the name of love where the one side will have care, affection, romance, wonder feels and what not but one who dares to love shouldn't ignore the other side of it - the hate, lust, insecurities, compatibility, past and so on. This is a story of a guy who went onto many paths with a verse of romance in hand and love logic in the other. Did he ever love her whom he thought will be his? Or he himself was obfuscated about true love and life lessons? Dive into a romantic tale of a teen age era as it goes up and at any point of time, it can fall. A peril breakdown it can be or a true fantasy.Complete
Scarlet Red ✔
What the fuck do you want?"I asked. "Get dressed we're going out"he says. "Hell nah, I ain't going no where"I say going back to my room. All I want to do is sleep and I won't let anybody stop me. I feel a muscular hand snake around my waist pulling me out of my room. "I can't fall asleep so you can't sleep too!" He says forcefully. "I hate you!" I scream. "No you don't, you adore me" he chuckles "Keep dreaming boy" I wanted him to let go of me, not because I didn't like it but because his touch, was driving me insane. It felt great and I can't afford to fall for him, I mean look at him who wouldn't fall for that handsome face and crazy person but that was problem. I'm not his type. He turned me around and this time I was facing him, our eyes met and I couldn't deny it, it felt great to be in his arms. His eyes lowered and fell on my lips. Before I could even say my name, he kisses me. My eyes widened in shocked but I gave in and wrapped my arms around his neck, closing my eyes. God damn!his lips are soft. It was slow and gentle, his hands moved to my face as he increased the pace. My hands moved to his soft black hair. God! I've always wanted to touch it I let out a moan and he slipped his tongue in making the kiss hotter. It was the best feeling on earth. We both pulled away at the same time, panting. Damon and Scarlet, two different people brought together by fate but separated by life. Will they find each other again and just live with the memories of what that had??Complete
Better Than The Movies
In this world, there are some people who get their happily ever afters and others who don't. Those who get their magical fairytale romance, cherish it for as long as it lasts while the others never get to enjoy the wonders of a fairytale. Instead, they are forced to stay inside their hopeless reality and grow old thinking about what they did to deserve never getting their once upon a time. I think those are the ones who wanted it bad enough. They craved a fairytale more than life itself. Devoted their lives to Disney movies and romance books just to be let down by the real world. I think I'm destined to be one of those people. Then he showed up. And fucked up everything I thought I knew.Complete
Catastrophically Carla (Lesbian Story)
Ages 14+ (lesbian concepts and some profanity) This is not your everyday love story, okay? It's not a chick flick either. The events and themes within my pages have meaning, depth, truth-and most of all, reality. You are about to be taken on an adventure about a girl who's life is not like everybody else's. I look like a normal teen girl, I mean, I have hair and two eyes and two hands and feet like everybody else, but I couldn't feel more different. I have two moms, yes. Let's just get that out there before you start reading and close my diary like everyone in my life has shut me out of theirs. All I want is a normal life with normal friends who don't judge me because of my home situation. I don't even remember the last time I went on a sleepover or called somebody my age. I don't mean to be a downer, because it does get better. Life gets better. Struggles are only temporary, I know that now. And by my last words reach your eyes, I've come a long way, and have grown to see potential in myself. I'm sharing this with you because I want to make a difference. I know now that I'm not the only one in the world that feels alone. I've been there, done that, and there's more loneliness to come, but for now, I feel more prepared for it. I know how it feels to sit by yourself at lunch every day and how it feels to watch others go to prom with dates and feel like shit because you don't think you'd even have any friends to go with. Please ready my diary. I am much older now, and much more wiser, and I can't wait for you to realize the potential in yourself, too.Complete
