Between Graduation and Goodbye follows Riley, an SS3 student caught between the joy of graduation and the weight of unfinished WAEC exams, whose school life has been reshaped by the aftermath of the COVID-19 lockdown. As responsibilities shift to younger students and his own days in the hostel grow quieter, Riley finds comfort in his deepening bond with Emily, a classmate whose charm and unpredictability keep him grounded. Set against the vibrant backdrop of a Nigerian boarding school, the novel captures the bittersweet journey of teenage love, friendship, and the uncertainty of stepping into adulthood, where every laugh, quarrel, and shared secret feels like both a beginning and a goodbye.

  • Ava & Liam: What it means to stay

Some silences speak louder than love confessions. Lune didn't wear dresses. Endri didn't ask questions. Until one morning changed both. Set in the quiet corridors and shadowed classrooms of a university , when Lune shows up in a black dress she wouldn't normally wear, and Endri crosses the street just to walk beside her, something shifts. What starts as casual teasing and coffee turns into something heavier-silent glances across classrooms, prose that sounds too personal, bruises that don't have stories, and a past that doesn't want to stay buried. It's about the unspoken things. The mornings that mean more than they should. The friend you never meant to fall into. And the distance you keep... just to feel safe. A soft, emotional slow-burn about friendship that might be something more-if only someone were brave enough to say it.
