Everybody has secrets; me, you, them? everyone has their deepest secrets. Some of the doesn't even consider it as secrets, it is as clear as what you see but nobody cares until everyone really does care. But... why do they care? why do you all sudden care? Are you too curious about somebody's secret life because you yourself also has something to hide? Like what? Obsession? Addiction? Guilty Pleasure? Everything is getting judged and by that everything comes out eventually so why be curious about somebody else's? People in the world struggles a lot for what they want, what they like and what they need and that is how their life is, nobody can be blamed if there are people against but why would we spend time knowing more about what you already know? Is it more than judgement? Is it something more than curious or it is really because you are interested? Its either those 3, maybe those are the stages and you are slowly turning obsessed. Mind you, everything you see in school are the faces you see only in school. Everything! But there is more that lies behind the mask and if you want to know too much, its maybe cause you care even if you deny it or not. You are not widely awake in the reality unlike everybody and the world is too fake to fake yourself as the realest and the cleanest. The whole class struggles and makes it in school by having a backup or alternative plan to survive and some of them has the saddest and the riskiest ones so what do you know? what do you want to know? why would you want to know? He is pretty obvious that he is not okay but that is his life but how about you? Are you real or you have an alternate side of you that does things that you do not do in the outside? Nobody has a one side of them, everybody has their other side for their own sake so never come clean, you are already covered in mud ready to jump in. So, would you jump in to Sam, Jameson? Do you wanna know if life? Ready to accept his alternative life? Welcome to Alter-native!Complete
Freshman Furs
This isn't your run of the mill love story. Where maybe a couple conflicts but all these lucky things happen. Sure there will be love but at what cost? Would you go through all this just for love, or would you give up half way. In a school with things like drug dealers, bullies, and a bunch of other shit will he be able to survive in this school. Maybe find love? Let's be honest probably not *Snickers.* I mean yay optimism! Yeah! Will he survive the abuse from his family maybe make some decent friends. Yeah probably but not without mental scarring. *Chuckles* I mean no he will get a true love and live happily ever after. But honestly what will happen in this world? Love? Death? Tears? Abuse? Gayness??? Warning Mature Content: May contain scenes that some people ain't comfortable with. Read at your own risk. Like seriously I can be pretty f'd up so you have been warned to travel pass this point. If I were you I'd just take the arrow to the knee and stop this adventure. (References.)Complete
The Grey In Black And White {COMPLETED}
The teenage period is usually not always easy. You make mistakes, you learn from them. It's like a moulding phase towards adulthood, which tends to be harder than adults make it sound. Especially in this generation. Growing up in a society where having a psychological condition means you're a freak, abnormal or an attention seeker. Where gender inequality is still seen as normal and right. Where anything other than Heterosexuality means you're possessed or the spawn of the devil. Where showing your emotions as a guy means you're soft and weak, because toxic masculinity isn't seen as a problem. Also, having anything to do that's related to these "atrocities" means you're set for an even bigger social stigma. Being a teenager becomes harder than hard. Just a group of teenagers trying to find a place for themselves in midst of a backward society, realising that life can't be all black and white. Growing in an African home is hard but what's harder is being a Nigerian. O le gán. "It is better to be hated for what you are, than to be loved for what you're not." -André GideComplete

Waiting For Tomorrow
TRIGGER WARNING STRONG CORSE LANGUAGE I am just a shell of what used to be, nothing but an empty discarded soul searching for hope in this decrepit world. I remember when I was younger, when I used to swing on swings at the park so high as if I were trying to reach the sky. Now i'm here at the park just sitting here, slightly swinging back and fourth keeping my feet on the ground with tears streaming down my face. Why is the world so cruel? Every single day is a never ending hell, a nightmare. Everything I love...Gone. When you're stuck and you have no where else to go, what do you do? A suicidal, self harming girl, Silva is facing the traumatising experience of bullying. Her only friend recently killed herself so she no longer has anyone to turn to. When a new guy, (NOTE: THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE STORY) Tyler joins her school, he is quite nice to Silva yet Silva does not quite trust him, she doesn't trust anyone, she doesn't even talk to anyone. Can Silva trust Tyler? Will things get better for Silva or will they only get worse? Will Silva ever recover from the things she goes through?Complete
