It had been a long day for Lily at work, she is the lead neurosurgeon at the private hospital she works at and she had just finished a 19-hour brain surgery where she and her team had to separate a set of conjoined twins and all she could think of was getting home, taking a shower and going to bed. She was too tired to drive so he had to take an uber home, when the driver pulled over in front of her house, she was surprised to see Eric’s car parked in front of it, she looked at her watch and it was just 7p...

I was unpleasantly awakened by the vibration from my phone, I sluggishly sat on my bed, I looked at the screen of my phone to see who was calling, it was my mum then I looked at the time, and it was 8am my room is completely dark all the time because I didn’t like the sun getting into my room, so I never really knew what was going on outside, I picked up the call “Good morning mum, is everything alright?” I said sleepily “Yes, Belle it is, I just wanted to tell you the dress code had changed to whi...

I woke up early because I couldn’t contain my excitement and it didn’t help that it was hot, so I had to wake up in between my sleep and switch on and off the air conditioner for some reason this season of summer was different from the summers we were used to it was hotter, and the summer had just begun but it felt like we were all stuck in a frying pan and it didn’t get better as the day progressed. It was finally the day I had been waiting for, I had waited all year for this concert, Nicki Minaj was coming to Europe finally and...

“Why, don’t we start with why you are both here today?” Dr. Jones told the young couple Ken and Olive Wendall seated on the opposite sides of the couch in her office they had been married for two years, no children yet. She looked back and forth from the two couples but there was dead still silence in the room. “Mr. and Mrs. Wendall, in order for this to work we actually have to communicate”. Ken looked at Olive with anger and resentment in his eyes “she cheated” he hissed. Olive had a blank and expr...

I sitting on my bed replaying the whole night over in my head, I was pretty sure Lola had suspected she was a very observant person and it was one of the things I loved about her but right now this quality I admired so much in her might have finally gotten me in trouble, I thought maybe I should call her and if she noticed anything she would say something and if she didn’t I had nothing to worry about but before I could make a decision about it I got a text from Lola asking me if I could go shopping with her tomorrow, I thought about declini...

I understand that we as human beings are not perfect and we make mistakes but the error I had made was a costly one, one I wish I could go back in time and change, one that has haunted me since that fateful Wednesday and since then I had promised to do everything to try to atone for my sins even if it drove me to the brink of insanity, it was a cross that I had to bear. I had been trying to make it up to Aisha and Megan her daughter since I had gotten Darryl her husband and my best friend killed she had forbidden me from at...

Moving so soon wasn’t something I thought I would be doing especially after I had warmed up to my neighborhood and my neighbors but with recent events that had taken place and the rumors that were now swarming the neighborhood like flies I knew my new safe haven had been compromised this wasn’t about choice it was about survival and protecting my secret it didn’t do me much good to have people now paying extra attention to me but I had to move. It had been three weeks after the ‘incident’ and I had comfortably settled in my house in a ...

It was Thursday night and I was comfortably tucked under my duvet in my one bedroom apartment watching an episode of friends while enjoying a cup of hot chocolate, it had been a long day it started raining in the afternoon but it was light showers but as the day progressed the rain got heavier and the wind got stronger it managed to destroy my umbrella when I was just a few meters from my apartment so I was at the mercy of the rain that had been rather unkind and had bitten me to the point that I was wet from top...
