When a national strike shuts Nigerian public universities and millions of students return home, where is Joy's brother?

Joy has two parts of the day she never thought could change. Mornings, when She and her flat neighbor Faith would turn the apartment building into a quarrel house, and afternoons, when instead of focusing on her academics, she joins her classmates in making the naïve excellent student's life a living hell.

Her brother Osas says she pushes her insecurities on the poor girl, but Joy prides herself in her self-acclaimed status as a gossip, bully, and mediocre. She would not change that for the world.

That is until she meets Brian, a quiet but calculative boy, who she tutors, but is the one that teaches her a lesson she can never forget.

~~~~(Mature)~~~~ "We're worlds apart..." "But I'm right here." "I'm far, farrrrrrrrrr far beneath your class..." "And so? I don't care." He shrugged. "You're fucking engaged!" I rubbed away the tears, scrubbing the edge of my sweater on my sore skin. "And somehow you keep acting like that singular most important factor in whatever you're doing here with me is nothing." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the bustling city of Lagos, Nigeria, a young woman named Somi struggles to be stable. She has been in and out of jobs, trying to keep up her "A" streak in school. Hot-headed and a go-getter. Her life turns when she meets Adams, a handsome and successful, Arewa man from an influential family, and despite having a betrothed, Adams is drawn to Somi's beauty, charm, and personality. Sarima is Somi's twin sister, and she struggles to make ends meet just like her sister. She has to deal with the university hassle, bills, and finding a good life with her sisters, Somi and Homa, without selling her body(beauty). She feels lost and directionless as there are a lot of drawbacks to being independent and surviving in Nigeria. To make matters worse, she also struggles with her feelings for her supposed friend, Kene. Will these sisters have it good at the end of the day or entangle themselves in a web they never planned to be in? #1 make money ~ 17th June 2023
