It's 2018 on the islands of Lagos, Nigeria and however hard Ekene, Tomilola and Elvis try to convince themselves that they're okay, they know they aren't.
Ekene had always struggled to be noticed and acknowledged, but now, as it extends to even his house, he decides to give up. It's unfortunate when peer pressure lands him into a deep tunnel he will also struggle to get out of.
Elvis is of the coming age where he realizes that everyone was created widely differently, and Tomilola's tenacity is what would take her places, keep her from going to places and get her in a situation she didn't plan for.
One story, three points of view, numerous lessons.

From the moment she was born, the world seemed to tell her that being a girl meant less - less freedom, less opportunity, and less value.

But as she grows older, she becomes determined to challenge the gender bias that has held her back her entire life. Will Aarya be able to rise above the limitations placed on her and create her own path, or will the prejudices of the world prove too much to overcome? ---Completa

To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself.

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 GideCompleta
