***************************
"You know... we're very much alike." She said, staring deep into my eyes.

"I am nothing like you!" I shot back.

She backed up, then let out a dry laugh.

"You pretend to be bold, but deep down, you're scared. " She chuckled. "I can see through your facade. I know your scheme....Perfectionism. What a way to tackle your fears."

"You don't know anything about me!"

"You know i'ts true. Think about it." She said , wearing a wry smile.

"I'm not pretending to be anything. Stop acting like you know me and leave me alone!" I screamed and walked away, as fast as my legs could carry me.

She was right.

I hated that she was right.

***********************************

Jasmine Okafor, who was also referred to as the star girl of Emerald high School, had everything an average Nigerian teenager girl could wish for. Was it beauty?, or brains?, fame, wealth, a hot boyfriend? Just name it, she had it. 

On the outside, she was a total package. 

Living the dream life.

Perfect?

Not so much...

Everyone has insecurities, and so does Jasmine.

Her so perfect life didn't seem perfect anymore, frenemies become emboldened to show their true colors, getting swallowed in the standards and principles she set. She gets a real taste of what it feels like to be ordinary.

She thought she could hide or run away from the truth. But what will she do when she comes face to face with them and has to deal with them?

Would she let herself be swallowed by her insecurities, or overcome them?

Join her as she journeys through her last year in emerald High school, filled with love, betrayal, self discovery, acceptance and as expected, loads of drama.

Against All Odds, de michelle18uzoma

"What is your name? " he enquired with a staid expression. Obi's eyes roamed around still trying to ascertain the safety of their current surrounding. Her lips were still quivering out of shock and her breathing distorted. "Obiukwu" She finally let out still battling with unsteady breathing. He adjusted the cuff of his pristine white shirt and helped her up. "For a girl with a boy's name you certainly do not think like one. Usually when a female dog comes after you, you don't run towards her young puppies, you run far away from them". She adjusted her pleated skirts which had been torn while she ran frantically from the enraged beast. This boy's words were rather insulting but she swallowed any form of insult that would have ensued especially from his reminder of the stereotype that had been carved out from her name . A simple act of gratitude, for he had been her savior. Was he not a dunce for thinking that way?. She knew a lot of moronic boys and her cousin Chukwudi was the ideal example. The dog had run at the sound of his command. She walked away from him slowly hoping to see Sandra somewhere close. "Hey! You owe me a thank you and something else". She ignored him and kept walking.She hated dogs and arrogant rich boys! "My name is Obiefune!" Obiukwu stopped for a brief moment and yelled back at him "thank you! ". Obiukwu, a young selfless girl is forced to choose between love and duty when life hurls misfortunes at her. Does she end up with her first love Obiefune even when the odds are against them?

SHAMBLES, de Damzeee

"Are you ready?" I said to her placing her long silky hair at the back of her head. She nodded. Her bewitching smile sending immense pleasure to my body. I pushed into her slowly- carefully and then with a little force. She forced a smile at first and in seconds her face had turned pale, hysterical- beastly! "Shit!. Shit!. Stoppppp Dotun - Please stopp." She screamed loudly like she was in enormous pain. I felt like I was in another world, lost in a haze of sensations-almost like I had found a place that felt like home. But then, reality struck. No matter how intense the moment, when a woman says stop, you stop. It doesn't matter how powerful the desire burning through you is. "Shit!" I yelled, fighting to pull myself back from the edge. The tension within me was overwhelming, the kind that tempts you to ignore everything but your own feelings. But I knew better-her voice, her comfort, and her trust meant everything. The desire could wait. Respect couldn't. Dammit!!! The sweet taste of a woman!!! Her personality, A ferocious saint, like fire and brimstone. He on the other hand, is like water yet powerless against her fire She was broken, a puzzle that was missing a piece. But he was willing to carve his own piece to complete her. They said her fire would consume him. But he was ready to be destroyed by her raging flames! Ranked 1 in #nigerianstories
