"Roses are dead, violets are dying; outside I'm smiling but inside I'm crying"


"Conceal, don't feel, put on a show
Make one wrong move and everyone will know"_ Queen Elsa 


Amanda Aderinsola Akinde has had a very normal life for as long as she can remember until she makes one wrong move that leads to a tregedy

New city, New school, starting over on a new slate with a new set of people that all seem normal on the outside- too normal 

They often say that the brightest smiles conceal the deepest pain and that the ones who give the best advice often need therapy the most 

Welcome to Sheffield High... and remember, even after looking twice, Do Not Come to A Conclusion Just Yet


"No matter how fucked up you think your life is, there's someone having it a bit worse"~ Amanda

A Black American, teenage cheer captain for her squad, the Sultan's Flower. We all know how it ends, the story of the sexy cheerleader and the captain of the football team. But this one was different. Amanda, being who she was, never made it any easier to be asked out on a date, or even to prom. Being the Cheer-Captain of her squad with a stiff attitude, she sure knew how to chase them off without trying. No doubt, she was the prettiest amongst her mate, and besides her two best friends, Bridget and Elena, Amanda was considered the meanest of her friends, and finding love proved more difficult for her. ​​ But was that the case? She doubted as she began to find letters, love letters, hidden inside her locker. Creepy or romantic? Amanda was set on finding the boy behind the letters. Watching her from the far end of the hallway was the one behind the letters, observing every single detail but, could she see him? _________________________________________ Teen fiction winner at #book worm monthly award (June) - - - - - 25/6/2020 3rd place in the NOBLE AWARD 2020 - - - - - 14/7/2020 2nd place in the HEATHER AWARD 2020 - - - - - 11/11/2020 3rd place in the PURPLE AWARD 2021 - - - - - - - 24/1/2021 _________________________________________ 👉*********👈 _______________ Started ~~~~~ April, 25, 2020 _________________________________________ Finished ~~~~~ June, 18, 2020

Some of us aren't that lucky. Some of us don't have physical freedom, emotional freedom or even spiritual freedom. We are imprisoned by forces around us and forced to do things that we don't want to do but who are we to complain, right? It's the norm of the society." Cover photo by @jane_lausten

As if he was aware of being followed, Henry increased his pace further. He got to the elevator while I quickly rushed and slid in before the elevator closes, leaving just the both of us inside the box that felt small because of how intense the atmosphere was. "Why are you a pest?" "I'm your bodyguard. Of course I'm like a human pest." I just couldn't hold it in me. His arrogance was just too much. "Did you just talk back at me?" Henry turned to me, his nose flaring up in anger. "You're fired." ______ Hope is a very beautiful girl, well atleast that's what she tells herself. But being beautiful isn't all there is knowing money ruled the world. Spotting a job with a hundred thousand naira seems like a 'too good to be true' phase to Hope. And it proved her point when her eyes sets in on the pronoun. He/him. Much bad news surfaces when she realizes such pronoun suits the job perfectly. Being a body guard. Hope being the hustler she sets herself to be isn't going to let a gender stop her as she finds means on making the opportunity work in her favour. They say, nothing a man won't do for money. Especially when being strapped. Right now, Hope is the definition of STRAPPED. Starts : 7/12/2021 Completed : 6/9/2022 Achievements : #2 - Nigerian - 4/04/22 #1 - Hustling - 11/04/22 Cover by Eddy622
