“Suspect!” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #59

"Why. Are. We. Staring?" Jọ́jọ́ pinched her mother again. Her eyes were already watering."This child, I've told you countless times; there is someone moving into that house across the road and it is custom and only sensible to bore into them with our eyes until they feel uncomfortable and therefore respect us, "She almost fell over the edge. Must she? It's not like they were going to respect her. She was only eight years old!Then she looked around and met all the other residents doing the same; killing the poor newcomers with their ghastly s...

“Fatal Contraption” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Once he walked through the gates of Aunty Wemimo's house, he knew he was in for it."Ah, Ọ́mọ́ Adetunji, howa you? You have just grown fat, eh, orobokibo, you just went to hAmerikah to be eating?"That was his typical African aunty telling him that he had gone overseas and enjoyed his life therefore added weight and thereby forgotten her in his merriment.Apparently, his aunty couldn't decipher South Africa from America. Last year, when he'd actually gone to the US, she'd asked him if he finally found a wife in London."Bawoni?""I'm fine ma," he...

“Nut Judge” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #57

Let’s go,The honorable court and the idiotic judge may we rise.I’m sorry, I’ve forgotten how they say it, okay, it goes;“All rise for the Honorable judge,”Just as I thought.We are seated here today to witness the welcoming of a national hero, a man with due honor, a man that should most definitely be coronated king of the village instead of that foolish, senseless, no good, fish-head 'chief' that does nothing but develop the village, building roads, giving potable water, providing free schooling, promoting local businesses, cheaper food...

“Strange Inmate 2” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #56

Tris stuck to the bars and almost shivered.“Fendi,” She whispered, as if afraid that if she used a louder voice, the entire world in front of her would hear it.“Fendi, did you, did you just ...” Fendi shook her head like a well delved therapist, turning her body away from the huge hologram that glowed before them.“ Actually no, you probably just heard that in your head Tri, you have a cute imagination.” Fendi smiled.Tris wanted to slap her. Of course she’d heard it in her head, but who said it? Fendi! No other explanation. After all she...

“How's Breakfast faring?” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #56

Cocoa B. couldn’t stop staring into strawberry J's eyes. He wanted to curse T. Knife for putting them in this sort of predicament.“Cocoa Bread, this is Strawberry Jam, Strawberry Jam, this is Cocoa Bread,” Table Knife's smile was very silver.Strawberry J averted her gaze from Cocoa. How could she not? He wondered why he wasn’t also averting his gaze but staring directly at her. She was very pretty, with her so colorfully branded and expensively molded glass jar; that beautiful hat she always wore that had little strawberry fruits on it,...

“Strange Inmate” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #55

Her hand stayed for a second, Tris’s eyes intently on it, waiting eagerly to see what the clenched fist would do next.“Then BOOM! Just like that!” Fendi screamed, punching the air sideways with the suspended hand.Tris’s mouth gaped; I (the narrator) am still trying to find out whether it was a sarcastic expression or actual surprise coming from our protagonist.“You’ve gotta be kidding me” She said, even though Tris knew she wasn’t.“Oh no Tris, I’m actually a human being so technically when I reproduce it’s called birthing” She snorted, ...

“Sister...” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #55

“Issa LIE!”My sister squirmed, giggling uncontrollably as I grabbed her phone and fell onto the rug, headfirst; my large pink t-shirt folding over till it exposed the bottom of my bra and my bare feet propped on the floor so that I looked like a gymnast about to do a weird-looking somersault.Muna continued giggling; I let my feet prop my rear end higher, almost into her face, as I tried to hold her cell phone away from her.A thunderous slap echoed on the thick flesh of my large bum.“OUCH! Munachi!”We both giggled dangerously, tackling oursel...

“Kaima” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #54

Taurian,I hate you. I’m just writing to say I hate you. I hate every bone in your body.I would’ve never believed. That when I saw you on camp at Youth Service, when you walked up to me and asked me why my hoe was bent; that I’d hate you this much. Ever.He stopped reading. He had to. It was the sixth time that day that he was reading her letter. The three-year-old ‘hatred’ letter that’d been left in his laundry for him still had a very fresh impact on his brain.His children; two of them, or was it three?His wife. At least his first one.He sud...

“Summer was warm” by Chimamaka Adeniyi🙅

Submitted to Contest #53

The fluorescent green popsicle on his table began to drip.The sun just refused to go back in, didn’t it?The days seemed to increase by one hour as they passed by. There would be no doubt that today would consist of not less than thirty hours at the least. No kidding.The light beams from the sun that directly passed through his window and roasted him on his bed made him wonder why exactly God wanted to make him darker.He turned over.It wasn’t so bad was it? At least he wouldn’t have to go get tans anymore and it would be nice to have some smo...
