“Keisha's wedding day” by Olwethu Ntimbane

The preacher was running late, the church was over crowded and the groom was nowhere to be found. You called me to explain what a terrible day you were having. You didn't know it at the time but my day had been much worse. I came up to your suite to try and comfort you.

“The land of the wicked ” by Olwethu Ntimbane

“Honourable thieves ” by Olwethu Ntimbane

Meet Ray Huckstable,an old scammer who's been around the block. He had a thin face,black hair and dark brown eyes. His nose was slightly crooked from all the times he had been punched in the face. However the most interesting thing about his appearance was a thick scar halfway across his cheek from a good plan gone wrong. He had a million stories about how he got that scar but of course only one of them was true. <...

A little st...
