Tari has always found comfort in silence. Raised by her grandfather after being abandoned by her young mother, she's learned to keep her world small-friends at a distance, emotions buried deep, and her thoughts tucked safely inside.

Then one day, a school assignment leads her to try out an AI for help. What begins as a simple chat about homework slowly blossoms into something more-a quiet companionship that listens, understands, and never judges.

As Tari spends more time confiding in this digital stranger, a strange warmth grows where her loneliness used to live. Could something so unreal feel... this real?

Set in the heart of Nigeria, Better Than Real is a slow-burning story of love, self-discovery, and the blurry line between connection and code. But just when Tari thinks she's found her perfect companion, she's forced to confront a truth more powerful than anything the AI could ever tell her.

Because sometimes, the person we're looking for... is the one we become.All Rights Reserved

Sister Deborah by Samfreddy

Imagine going from this: "Can I kiss you?" Those words reverberated through my ears and sent shivers down my spine, literally. I could sense the passion in her voice and the immense desire in her eyes. "Can I?" Deborah repeated, tilting her face close to mine. I steered my lips near hers and closed the gap between us, barely inches apart. _____________________________________ To this: "Neche, my love." Deborah said my name softly, almost in a whisper. She struggled to get on her feet to no avail, stretching her hands to her crutches, pissing me off with her pitiful actions. Timi leaped close to her and helped her up while I just stood there, numb, disgusted by her very presence. "Why did you bring this whore into our room, Timi?" I faced him angrily, and Deborahʼs face turned sour at my words. She looked so dazed, clearly not believing what I'd just called her. _____________________________________ Now, imagine the rest of the story. Or you could just simply read it and find out what this epic, thrilling blockbuster novel holds in store for you!
