$The Grey In Black And White {COMPLETED} by Dami_A_Johnson$

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 Gide

Cake Cafe by Khadija_Aminu

The meeting of two broken hearts can either be a like a bomb or like a long steady walk under the shade of a hundred trees. Hidaaya is a 24 year old teacher and although she has been through her fair share of wrong relationships and heartbreaks, a fun loving, bubbly young woman who walks through life, almost always with a smile. Someone said once, that humans can be museums, filled with history they can no longer touch." A history that resonates in their lives, breaking some, making others. Najib might have brushed that quote off three years ago but not now. This wasn't three years ago Najib, it was three years later Najib. The wounded, untrusting Najib. The one who'd seen the fine line between sanity and insanity, between life and death, between life as it was and life as it could be. In the center of Abuja, the F.C.T of Nigeria, two broken hearts stumble into each other's paths, oblivious to the fate that binds them and scared of the feelings that draw them together. A pair of brown eyes meet darker brown eyes, 5'11 meets 6'3, coffee meets cake. But what happens when the past remains a dark curtain around us, a part of us. Lurking around in the shadows, sometimes threatening to topple down the hope of a better future. What happens when we are very much still in the clutches of our own minds... And unable to break free?
