My ex was my first real boyfriend. I met him when I was twenty-one and in my third level in university. I was doing my internship with a bottling company and he was an Engineer who had just joined them after his national [...]

I hate weddings.
Not the institution but the ceremonies built around it.
I mean, the first miracle Jesus ever performed was at a wedding…and that should have sent a signal to humanity that no matter how hard people try, something would always go wrong at [...]

I squirmed uncomfortably on my seat, my plate of rice and plantain untouched. Earlier, I had been so hungry I could eat a pot of food, but the hunger seemed to have fizzled away with my confidence.
Behind me, Emeka’s footstep approached. He always [...]

If I hadn’t gone out on that fateful Sunday afternoon
If I hadn’t seen you on the road, stranded and asking for directions
If I hadn’t decided to help you find your way

Being shy was an understatement!
At 16, dreams of forever after with the boy that lived down the street was the best part of my day. Fairy tales almost ruined my life.

It was during Christmas. No, actually some days before Christmas. Edna woke me up with a ring.
“Hey beautiful, Merry Christmas in advance” I answered with dreamy eyes.

It was New York. It was July. It was 2008.
My arm had just come out of a cast but it was still sore as hell. I told them not to worry about me; I could take care of myself.

Jeta stared at the woman in the car in complete shock. He could not believe what he was seeing. One minute, he was screaming at his wife who brazenly skipped the night at their home because she thought he wasn’t due back in town [...]

It is a cold Wednesday afternoon. The rain never seems to end here in Lancaster. Tiny little unending drops that just have a way of messing up your entire plans. Oh well! I would just stay home again today and feast on McVitie’s Ginger [...]
