At twenty-nine, Amadi is pretty sure she's supposed to have this whole "adulting" thing down by now. Instead, she's juggling a job that makes her question her life choices at least twice a week, a gym membership she mostly uses to justify buying smoothies, and a situationship that keeps her awake at night.
When a promotion at work goes sideways, and her best friend announces a surprise engagement, Amadi decides it's time to get her life together. Between questionable career advice, green juice experiments, and an accidental dating app download, she starts realizing that maybe adulthood isn't about getting everything right. Maybe it's about laughing through the mess, making peace with the unknown, and learning that "figuring it out" is kind of a forever thing.

The yes she never expected
Becky and Freen are in uni together learning business. They grew up as inseparable best friends. Everyone assumed they'd end up together, but Becky always brushed it off - especially once she started dating. What Becky doesn't know is that Freen has been in love with her since they were teenagers, but buried those feelings to protect their friendship. Their families - close for generations - arranged a marriage between them (business merger, inheritance, cultural/traditional reason). Becky, annoyed, thinks it's ridiculous and assumes Freen will laugh it off too. But Freen said 'YES' Now Becky feels betrayed - like her best friend trapped her. The friendship they once had crumbles into resentment. Let see what happens next. The story would be Bestfriends to enemies to lovers. There might be some harsh words and scenes.Complete
Without A Title
Some stories don't need a name. Just two hearts finding their way. When Becky's world falls apart-her fiancé cheating with her cousin, her future unraveling in a single moment-she doesn't expect the quietest person in the room to become her loudest support. Freen has always admired Becky from a distance. Confident, driven, and untouchable... until now. One night, one unexpected act of kindness, and a twist of fate pull them into a connection neither of them saw coming. As Becky faces an unplanned pregnancy and a future she never imagined, Freen stays by her side-not as a savior, but as something deeper. Something real. Through stolen glances, late-night talks, and unspoken moments, the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur. This isn't a love story with grand gestures or perfect timing. It's about choosing someone when it matters most. Even if you don't have the right words for it yet.Complete
Need a talk?
Hey, you! Yes, you I'm talking to you... Come sit with me comfortably. Grab a drink, coffee, tea, wine, beer anything, or a snack. We are going to have a long talk. Yes you and me... with my friends. Prepare some pillow or blanket too. All set? Alright, let's dive in with this trio. Ellie, always being bothered with money issues, while Jazzlyn, with a rich medical family background, tries to escape from their grip and let her fortune go as she chooses the beaten path of life alongside Isla, a widow who navigates the ropes of life living in solitude. What fate is awaiting them, and will they still remain together as life progresses? (I am also posting in Royal Road on this story weekly. )
Marrying The Wrong Twin!
# Prologue **Two Years Ago** The music is too loud. I can't stop laughing. "Becky, slow down," Irin says. Someone stops me from reaching for another drink. Saint's twin. Freen. "I think you've had enough." "Where's Saint?" I slur. "Work emergency," she says quietly. The room spins. I stumble toward the exit. Three guys block my path, saying disgusting things. Freen steps in front of me. "She's with me. Back off." They don't listen until security comes. In her car, everything's fuzzy. Her gentle hands helping me to the door. Waiting while I fumble with keys. When I turn to thank her, she's so close. Gold flecks in her dark eyes. The kiss happens before I can think. Soft. Perfect. I pull away, mumbling apologies. She backs into the shadows. I stumble inside and pass out. **The Next Morning** Saint calls early. "Beck, I'm so sorry about last night. Are you okay?" "What do you mean?" "The guys bothering you. I'm so glad I could help you get away from them." I frown. "You were there?" "Of course. I couldn't let anything happen to you. I was so worried when I saw those guys cornering you. Thank God I got you home safely." My head hurts too much to think clearly. "Thank you." "You don't remember much, do you? You were pretty drunk. That's probably for the best. Just know that I'll always protect you, Beck." Warmth spreads through my chest. Saint saved me. Saint protected me. That's when I fall in love with him. **Present Day** I'm staring at my reflection in the wrinkled wedding dress. "Becky? The car is here." The car to take me to marry the wrong twin. Saint left me at the altar this morning. Gone. Now I have to marry Freen. The woman who barely speaks to me. Who avoids me. I don't understand why she dislikes me so much. In an hour, I'll marry someone who can't even look me in the eye. Someone who isn't Saint.Complete

The Chemistry of Maybe
Farra is just your average high school student if your average student blurts out inappropriate jokes, drifts through life with a half-detached smirk, and keeps everyone at arm's length just far enough to stay safe. She doesn't believe in soulmates, real emotions, or whatever people mean when they say "connection." But even someone like her ends up with a found family of chaotic, loyal, deeply flawed friends who keep her from drifting too far. Then comes Asta. Mysterious, quiet, unfairly attractive Asta. The kind of guy Farra should definitely avoid but absolutely cannot stop thinking about. When her attempts to figure him out turn into full-on strategies (and minor stalking), Farra ropes in her "friend" Alif to help. But when feelings shift, secrets pile up, and nothing goes as planned, she finds herself stuck between the version of herself she performs and the person she might actually want to be. High school was already messy. Add in some unrequited crushes, group chats full of bad advice, and the slow, painful realization that "maybe" isn't enough, and things get a lot more complicated. A sharp, funny, and painfully honest story about friendship, feeling too much, and figuring out who the hell you are, one awkward conversation at a time.Complete
Mysterious marriage
Freen and Becky were supposed to have a fairy-tale love. At least that's what Becky thought - until the day her wife has a serious accident and loses her memory. Or at least that's what she says. When Freen wakes up in the hospital, she finds out that she is married. She doesn't remember the day of the accident, but something about the story doesn't add up. Why does Becky seem too surprised by her behavior? Why does Freen herself feel like she shouldn't trust anyone - not even her "wife"? However, the greatest secret is yet to be discovered. In the shadow of it all stands Sam, Freen's twin sister - a woman who has harbored a lifelong jealousy towards her. Now Freen is starting her own game. She must discover the truth before Sam destroys everything. But in a world full of lies and manipulation, love becomes dangerous. Was Becky just a pawn in the intrigue, or is she hiding secrets of her own? When the line between truth and illusion blurs, one thing is certain - this story will not end without a fight. This is a fictional story that has nothing to do with real people! Love🤍Complete
