In a world where love and loss intertwine like the vibrant threads of a tapestry, Sam finds himself caught between two homes. After being uprooted from his familiar life in America, he embarks on a journey to Nigeria-a land rich with culture, untold stories, and unforeseen challenges. As he grapples with the heartbreak of leaving behind his friends, especially Bliss, whose silence echoes in his heart, Sam must navigate the complexities of a new life where friendship, rivalry, and the whispers of unrequited love beckon.

In Nigeria, he encounters Julius, a charismatic local who introduces him to the thrill of adventure and the warmth of companionship. But as Sam struggles to carve out his identity in this foreign land, he realizes that not everyone is as welcoming as they seem. With the weight of his past and the uncertainty of his future pressing down on him, Sam must learn to trust his instincts, confront his fears, and discover the true meaning of love.

Join Sam on this emotional rollercoaster as he navigates friendships, fights his inner demons, and discovers that sometimes the path to finding oneself is paved with unexpected turns and breathtaking moments. Will he be able to embrace the love waiting for him in Nigeria, or will his heart remain tethered to the memories he left behind? The answer lies in the vibrant streets of Anambra, where every moment holds the promise of new beginnings.All Rights Reserved

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

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

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

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?
