Oyinda stood sheepishly at the door, a bouquet of flowers in his hands. She was mad. He could tell. Was she going to let him in? “What do you want?” she asked, brazenly. “I want to come in.” “You have some nerve showing up at my door after […]
Oyinda and Temi drove home in a strange silence that was becoming characteristic of their marriage. They were both lost in their own thoughts, thinking about what had happened at the party today. To compensate for their mutual lack of interest in conversation, Oyinda had the radio on, […]
David sat in his car contemplating whether or not to join the party. He hadn’t been invited, but he really wanted to go. He really wanted to see Mary again, and he had bought gifts for her boys too. Mary hadn’t posted any update on her blog about […]
It was a Friday morning, in mid-April, and Bolu was getting ready to go to work. As usual, Lola had prepared and packed his lunch for him, and was assisting him to make sure he had everything he needed for the day. As she no longer had an […]
Kemi was dressed waiting, and reading a book in her small bungalow apartment in Victoria Island. She shared the place with two other girlfriends. One of them, Trisha, had left for a Church mid-week service, while the other, Pamela, was engaged in an assignment for work. It was […]
Jason was nervous about meeting Fiona’s family on this Sunday afternoon. It would be their first meeting, and he didn’t know what to expect. She came from a Catholic home, and well, he was not one and was still quite young in his Faith walk. What if they […]
What did I ever do to deserve a woman like Mary…? I have been so blessed in my life, but she has been the greatest of God’s blessings to me. She’s beautiful, smart, lovable, kind and so passionate about God. She’s been a gracious wife, a diligent mother, […]
Ope got home about 8pm, just in time for dinner. The table was already set, and the food laid out, wrapped or otherwise covered. Promise was neither in the kitchen nor living room. She hadn’t come down to greet him at the door today, which signified that she […]
Promise closed work early that day, on account of her migraine. She also wanted to go to her prayer closet and pray. There were just too many distractions at the hotel. As she rode home, she wondered what Richard thought he stood to gain from intimidating her. He […]
Tolu was in her home studio, working on her designs for her wedding dress. As a fashion designer, she took pride and privilege in designing her own clothing. Over the years, she had designed many dresses that she thought would be ideal to wear on her special day, […]
Tolu was enjoying a quiet day at home, alone on a Sunday afternoon. She’d just warmed up her lunch, and was about to get cozy on the sofa to a nice feel-good movie. Yesterday had been wonderful. After her lunch with Danny, they’d strolled around the mall, and […]
Tolu was stunned by Femi’s arrogant response. You must really love me? Was he mad? Couldn’t he see how much she hated him?! And that’s when Tolu realised the problem. She hated him. She didn’t love him as a Christian ought to love her neighbour…or even her enemy. […]
Why did he say he was sorry? After all these years… And then he invites me to dinner? What’s he thinking? Does he really want to be friends, or is there something he needs? Keisha was staring at her phone, looking at Ifeanyi’s profile picture on his Whatsapp […]
It had been two weeks since Keisha had bombarded Ifeanyi’s phone with her scandalous pictures and messages. She’d really been expectant of an explosion or some feedback at least, but up till now, she’d heard nothing from him. It was time she made her next move. But what […]
“If I had one thing to say to the Youth, to this new generation of business men and leaders, I would say – Dream. Dream big, but be prepared to work just as hard! Thank you…” Ope Olamisan alighted the podium to a round of applause, after giving […]
