~●~○~•~○~●~ "Are you guys serious right now" she asked as her eyes travelled from the two boys. "mstwww you guys don't know what you are saying" she hissed as she pushed through them. "well, if you think we are lying, ask him yourself" "micheal, MJ, your mallam musa is leaving" the boys ran on hearing that to catch the bus leaving Hawwa hanging. No. This can't be happening. Not to me. ~●~○~•~○~●~ Started - August 19, 2019 Ended - July 31, 2020 This book is a complete work of fiction. Any similarities to anything in reality is a complete coincidence.

#4 in tas #1 in Abeokuta Dedicated to all Africans who are depressed and suffer PTSD. How exactly do you explain to an African parent that you need help? Do Africans even care about the state of their mental health? How do I tell others how I feel or about my nightmares without them thinking I'm mentally unstable? Everywhere, "seek help." How exactly? All these questions bother me so much that they give me problems. Even if he agrees that I need help, everyone would see me as a psychiatric patient, as the mentally unstable girl. "I keep blaming myself for all that has happened. I mean, how could I not have seen it coming? She was practically my best friend and close to me. If only I had opened my eyes wide enough and looked closer, I would have known and probably done something. We had a fight, we didn't settle it. Before I knew it, she was gone. It upsets me more. This has been haunting me for over a year. Can I ever be normal?" #39 in stereotype #62 in insomnia #82 in singleparent #568 in nightmares #72 in African #2 in tcs #16 in secondaryschool #111 in Nigerian #28 in Yoruba #7 in middleclass On 19 September, 2020

COMING FROM AFRICA [Completed] by Ifunanya_aa

*NOT EDITED.* *•••••*I've heard a lot about Abroad. The US specifically... Can you imagine my surprise when my mom told my sister and I one evening that she has been transferred to the US to work?! *•••••* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *•••••*My name is Ijeoma, and yes, I'm African. Nigerian specifically. I have always heard stories of how America is. I have watched a lot of foreign movies as well, so when my mom informed us of her transfer, my thoughts were 'Hey I've got this. It's just like in the movies. I can handle them.' What I didn't know was that the movies exaggerate about some of the stuff there. A lot of the stuff there. How the hell am I supposed to survive in this ridiculous place? A place where all my training and manners cannot be used? GOD HELP ME! *•••••* TO THE GOOD READER: THIS IS MY WORK...IF YOU SEE OR HAVE SEEN THIS STORY SOMEWHERE ELSE, PLEASE DO WELL TO INFORM ME😁 TO THE DING DONG WHO TRIES TO STEAL MY WORK: I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND RUIN YOU🙂

Hard Man by adetayo_first

Although no one knew it, Desire was struggling. It was highly unbelievable because as a top worker in one of Lagos' most exclusive and influential night clubs, she was making close to twenty thousand naira per night. All her other friends were living large, and building houses, so why couldn't she? Her father had died five years ago, leaving them drowning in a sea of debt. Her mother was sick, and couldn't do anything, so from an early age Desire had had to wear the mantle of responsibility. A twenty six million naira debt was on her neck, and for five years, Desire had consistently been paying it off; while simultaneously keeping a roof over her mother's head, and saving up money for school. Salvation came at last; but in form of the hardest, most handsome man she had ever laid eyes upon? General Babalola Halal. He was offering five million Naira for a whole month of exclusive sex. Pure, undiluted gratification. It was her job, and this offer was coming on a platter of gold. Even more tempting was the fact that it was the exact amount needed to be free of her father's debt. Completely. But he was hard, and demanding, and excruciatingly virile. Accepting this posed a risk far greater than millions. The stark reality of losing everything she stood for, and gaining nothing in return because a man like this never gave anything of himself. He was rich, five million Naira meant nothing to him. But she knew what she was getting into, she knew how addictive his touch was, and how hard it was to stay sane around him. Could she do this? Was losing her sanity a price she was willing to pay?

Love, Grace.✔️ by maybesylvia

I figured that since I was going to die, I should write a letter to my parents. But in the event that I survive, I didn't want to be branded as a curse. But I can't live. I just can't. I bet you're wondering why I would want to commit suicide. Why would this seventeen year old, smart, pretty girl want to commit suicide? ***** The reason is simple- I made some bad decisions. Decisions that later bit me in the butt.The first thing I remember of being a child, and my first ever memory is a bitter one. ***** And without a second thought, I take a swig of the opened beer by my side and throw some pills into my mouth. I swallow. I stare at the clock and wait. Nothing changes. No wobbly feelings, no stomach ache, no nothing. ****** My name is Chikasinma Grace Wilson and this is my story. °•° This is a Nigerian girl's journal on her life and all the bad decisions that worsened her depression.

Just A Dare [Editing] by chocodropss

Published on the 12th of November, 2018. What the fuck! Can't you watch where you're going?? You almost injured me!" I said dusting my skirt and trying to get up with the help of the wall of course. " I'm so sorry. My bad" a deep voice told me. I quickly looked up and well he was too tall. I'm like the average height girl. I'm just 5"5. He's more like 5"11 or 6ft. I'm not sure. He was not too dark neither was he fair. He had this look on his face, I wasn't sure if he was smiling or frowning. It was confusing. His lips were redish and looked quite kissable. Idiot! Snap out of it jor My name is Oluchi. It was just a dare. Or so I thought. Follow Oluchi on a journey filled with love, trust, betrayal, lies. What will happen when the dare she thought was so little could end up being so destructive.

Diary of an average Nigerian Teenager by Bosslady005

"OMG!!,have you seen Femi today, he's so hot and dreamyy", Sophia says excitedly. " Oh come on, I don't know why you guys are all over him, give him a break, he just arrived for God's sake", I say facepalming myself. " You should go over and greet him you know ", " And why would I do that", I say eyeing her weirdly. " Oh, come on, you guys used to be best of friends you know ", " Yeah, that was before and it's been a long time he probably doesn't even remember me you know" " Well, there's only one way to find out, come on ", she says shoving me into his direction, our action is cut short when we see none other that the " Oluwadarasimi" jumping onto Femi to give him a bone crushing hug making Femi laugh out loud in his masculine voice before she gives him a quick peck. I turn to look at Sophia, okay WTF just happened!!! Jadesola Aderibigbe is a typical ambivert, she has set her secondary school goal, to pass her waec in flying colors, come out top of her class, avoid any bad drama,most especially boy drama!!!. Those goals may have to hit a compromise when her childhood friend and crush Femi moves back to his old town and in her school halfway of school session. Secrets will be spilled, emotions will be felt and maybe with a little bit of boy drama after all. Started October 22,2033

To some it was hell, to some it was home. To some, it was a place to catch cruise and live your best life. To some it was a place where you ruled, where you were the main man at the top of the food chain. To some it was a place to hide under a façade. To some it was a place that determined what the future held. But to all, it was a place that brought challenges - physical and emotional. A place that brought self-discovery; a place that exposed the secret and the reality of life. Final year at River Brook Academy had finally come - basically what every secondary school student looked forward to. Suffice it to say, that it wasn't half as normal as the other years they'd spent. It came with whirlwinds, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes...but what happens when Ore Jumai, Ayo Balogun, Bolu Jayeola, Nina Ogbeide and their friends all learn what they truly needed? Would they be able to take it and stand? Or would they leave it and fall to the ground? ****** Started: 24th December, 2020.
