GHANAIAN-THEMED STORY

At 18, Vera Kasha Dwamena is leaving behind everything she's ever known-the faded halls of the orphanage where she grew up, and the only place she's ever called home. With a full scholarship to the University of Ghana, Legon, she should feel triumphant. But freedom comes with fear, and adulthood comes far too fast when you've never had family.

Luckily, she's not alone. Her best friend Sofia, the one girl who's always seen her beyond the label "orphan", is also headed to Legon. They share more than memories-they're studying the same course, chasing the same dreams, and hoping the world will finally open up to them.

Then Ashraf Ohene Despite walks into her life.

He's confident, connected, and from a world Vera doesn't belong to. But Ashraf is also kind... and interested. Really interested.

Vera's never had anyone fight for her before. But love isn't always simple-especially when you're trying to figure out who you are.

Can a girl who grew up with nothing learn to trust a boy who seems to have everything?

 
Ashraf.

Will it ruin the possibility of a happy future or was she always destined for a lifetime of loneliness? ***** Sophia was set up to fail- her teenage life was filled with cancer, suicide and gambling but with motivation and hard work she was able to create a comfortable life for herself. Being in the right place at the right time offered her an opportunity like no other. The only problem? The past she believed she had left so far behind her was in fact lurking just around the corner waiting for the right time to pounce. When the only man she felt she could truly trust began keeping secrets Sophia wondered if there had been any truth in their relationship at all. ***** "Why do you always hide from me?" His fingers were still gently holding her chin. He wanted that night to be different, he wanted to allow himself to feel things, for just one evening. She cast her eyes down. "I'm not hiding." "Then look at me, Sophia..." She took in a deep breath and drew her eyes upwards, looking at him through her mascara laced lashes. His fingers fluttered across her skin and he placed his palm gently on her cheek. He brought his face closer and rested his forehead on hers as if he were trying to fight the pull between them. "What are you doing to me?" His voice was barely a whisper.

Identically Loved

15 parts Complete

Loving two brothers was never part of her plan. One was her best friend-her anchor, her constant, the boy who knew her inside out. The other was his twin brother-her boyfriend, her heartbeat, the one who made her believe in soulmates. To the outside world, it was simple: she spent all her time with him, laughed with him, leaned into his shoulder like home. But the world had it wrong. They mistook closeness for passion, friendship for romance. They didn't see the difference between the way she looked at him-with warmth-and the way she looked at his twin-with fire. They didn't know that when her phone lit up, her heart skipped only for one name. They didn't understand that love could be quiet and loud at the same time, and that what she shared with each brother was made of completely different threads. But when the brothers weren't there to speak for themselves, when questions and whispers started to twist the truth, how could anyone believe that her heart truly belonged to the one they didn't expect? ---
