"I dare you to kiss the girl on your right." The girl on the right. . . my sleep deprived mind made out sluggishly. Girl on the right, it repeated again and my eyes flew open, all atom of sleep disappearing from them. I was the girl on the right! *** Bullied for the colour of her skin ever since she could remember, Olayinka doesn't know what it means to be accepted. She's called trash and treated as an outcast all because of the school's resident bad boy and top bully, Kian Fields. Senior year starts with Kian suddenly becoming very nice and naive Olayinka, unaccustomed to this type of attention and desperately wishing for acceptance, begins to fall for him. That is, until Jayden Ross enters the equation. Jayden is nerdy, wears ugly glasses and is definitely not Olayinka's kind of guy. But as he aids Olayinka in standing up for herself, she can't help but be drawn to his shy and gentle exterior. With Kian showering his attention on her and Jayden, who looks out for her all the time, Olayinka is attracted to both of them. Could this be her very own love triangle or is it just in her head? But maybe, just maybe she'll finally be able to live as any other teen her age would, worrying about boys and perhaps she'll finally be considered normal. *** Second Place in Teen Fiction Category for The Undiscovered Awards 2020*** ***Feautured in Wattpad Ambassador NG reading list*** ***First Place in Teen Fiction Category for The Evergreen Awards*** ***Third Place in Teen Fiction Category for The Faith Awards***Complete

Shadows of her
A NOVELLA- Nabila's world had once been filled with light, laughter, and love-until the darkness crept in and consumed it all. For the past year, she has lived in self-imposed exile, hiding from the people who knew her and the memories that haunt her. Once vibrant and full of dreams, Nabila now drifts through life in a haze of sadness and indifference, clinging to the faint hope that happiness might find her again, though it feels impossibly out of reach. Umar's life is no less tangled. Stuck in a complicated marriage, his only joy is his young son, who anchors him in a life that often feels unlivable. As a father, Umar's devotion is unshakeable, and he would sacrifice anything to keep his son safe and smiling, even if it means enduring a life that stifles his own happiness. When Nabila and Umar's paths unexpectedly cross, they discover a kindred spirit in each other-someone who understands the pain, the yearning, and the fragile hope for something better.Complete
