Abanti, a punctual university student, wakes up to her alarm at 7 a.m., dreaming of traveling back to the Mughal era via an antique clock. Rushing through her morning routine, she mistakenly wears her sandals on the wrong feet, a childhood habit. After a quick breakfast of stale bread and a banana, she heads to her university class, reciting Ayatul Kursi for protection. On the crowded bus, she's annoyed by a smoking passenger. At university, she excels in explaining Einstein's E=mc². Later, she tutors a lively student, avoiding harsh methods, and enjoys tea while reflecting on life's small quirks. (100 words)

The Premiere Journey to the University, The Rough Ride Experience by AgbesiKofiDerrick
7 parts Complete
This is a non-fictional anecdote about Agbesi as he was hooked up by the tussles in securing his university education. As he graduated from secondary school, he was very passionate in furthering his tertiary education in order to make his dream as a petroleum engineer come true. Though brilliant, he could not make it to the university that very year he had completed secondary school by virtue of gross financial constraints. Agbesi having known his fate, had to spend a year at home and work for his industrious but impoverished mum and his rich misery surrogate father. Loving his mum so much for her care for the family, he decided to help her in her petty business as against teaching. As the real-life experiences unfold in the story, Agbesi had been stood down from her mother's drinking and food spot business and coerced to embrace his surrogate father's block factory and land-surveying enterprises. Notwithstanding that he earned meagre wages from any of those businesses, he continued saving and finally applied into one of the most prominent public universities in the country and bought a few school items too from the same savings. Finally, when he was about to leave for the university, there arose the issue of paying his academic fees. Through the intervention of two of his benefactors in his secondary school, this dire condition was resolved. All set and done, he was full of gratitude as he set off to his new school.

The love of my life- Cause True love never has to hide

77 parts Complete Mature

She's lying peacefully on my chest, holding on to my new leather jacket while I walk us up the campus steps and into the staff closet. Relax, I only have the keys because I'm friends with one of the department cleaners. I'm not much of a socialite so I spend my lunch breaks in here rather then the canteen like regular students. I lay her down on the only cushioned sofa that could fit into this tiny room. With my parents being social workers, home is far too crowded with people in need of help that I prefer sleeping in this place sometimes. There aren't any windows so she should feel safe. I close us in and wait until she gains conscious. Her eyes blink as I look into them, she mumbles a few words and after what seems like years, she speaks "where am I? What is this?" I say nothing but stare, I can't help it. She seems to recall what took place a few minutes ago when she decides to speak, "thank you and I'm sorry for taking your money". #Mustread #SA #Africanwriters Author: Asanda Khathi Happy reading!???
