At the beginning of a new year, I like to reflect on the previous year. I know that life is unpredictable but I also like to work with previous information to guide new decisions. It’s the first of January, yet another year, and this day is no exception. I stretch my arms and shake out […]

“Okay. Thanks, boss.” I sniffle as I drop my phone on the couch. I grab the box of tissues beside me and blow my nose again. What started as a migraine after the call with Constance, two days ago, has turned into a full-blown sickness. I woke up this morning feeling absolutely wrecked, barely able

It’s been a while since our last trip to the house, Zabby and me’s first road trip together. The stress of adulthood has successfully emptied my full tank from that particular trip. Still, I have no regrets, and the memories still leave me feeling just as excited as the trip made me. Thankfully, we got

“Constance, are you there?” I ask on the phone. I’ve just told her that this call is supposed to be a dialogue, yet she gives no response. “I’m here. What do you want, Joe?” “I want us to have a chat,” I say, proud of myself for displaying a level of confidence that I don’t

I don’t get up from my laptop until noon, almost six hours of intense focus work. Thankfully, I got a lot of work done. As soon as I shut my laptop, I make a banana smoothie, change into my gym fit and head to the gym. I should check my phone; it’s still on the

If I had to make a wish, it would be to become Angel’s man. It’s shallow, right? Well, it’s a wish. Wishful thinking. I’ve put off contacting Constance for more than a month now, and my nightmares are in full gear, happening every night instead of every other night. There’s no way I can be

It’s a wonderful Thursday. Zabby’s loud music welcomes me as I step into the apartment. That’s her style whenever she’s in a great mood. I really lucked out in the cousin department, as an only child, Zabby’s been the sister I never had. We have our misunderstandings like every other sibling but we’re even closer

Since I saw Joe’s picture, I’ve been in full crush territory. I honestly think it’s a result of being bored, although that’s a convenient excuse. I can’t say that boredom has left me opening my WhatsApp more times than necessary just so I can possibly get a glimpse of someone. I’ve even been a little

It’s been a while since the three-day training in Abuja and since I saw Angela’s status. Hassan has been here to visit and has left, life is back to the norm. I’ve been considering calling Constance for a bit instead of replying to her chats. Some people call this closure. For me, I’ve resorted to

It’s been almost twenty-four hours since I updated my status after over four years. Unsurprisingly, I’m met with a wild response with almost all two hundred and four contacts of mine replying to my status. The chats are variations of, ‘Omg! Where have you been?’ ‘Wow, here you are. You disappeared!’ ‘You look beautiful.’ ‘Been
