When the soldiers in the movies come back from war, you can easily identify who’s been on the battlefield. They flinch at the slightest sound of a gunshot, are easily suspicious, and are quick to defend themselves. Despite being out of the…
We’d been texting with Norman daily for three months when we finally went for a lunch date. I spent the two days leading up to the date choosing the perfect outfit. “Is this too much?” “Does this say, ‘I want you’?” “Does this make me look…
Hannah walked into her house a few minutes past 8 P.M. The look on Tom, her husband, didn’t come as a surprise. He gave her the stinky eye every time she came back home later than he did. She paid him no mind and went straight to her…
Some lives don’t have room for pause, and Nyakio knew it. Hers was a journey of fighting against all odds when the deck of cards is constantly stacked against you. She was no stranger to life’s misfortunes, but this was a big one. Beep!…
She wasn’t an influencer when I met her. Agnes was just a cool and beautiful girl who had a social media account, just like many other people. I enjoyed every bit of our relationship until the fourth month. Before that month, I didn’t…

Lily stopped herself from tapping her foot on the carpet for the umpteenth time. Her entire body was vibrating with anger as she listened to her friend, Winnie recount the woes that had befallen her in the last few days. “Aki imagine, he…
Life laughs. You will one day sleep soundly as one filled with peace because life is unfolding as you intended. The man who sleeps beside you, you couldn’t have made a better choice if you had the power to mould one into existence. Your…
Bulk meal prep services depend on tools that save time and keep food portions consistent. A high-quality meat slicer can make that process faster and more efficient by producing uniform slices of meat, cheese, and produce. The best meat…
Virginia’s ruracio (dowry payment) was a sore thorn in their family. Her communication with her parents became strained since her father wouldn’t talk to her, and her mother’s calls always entailed the same discussion. “Tell Isaac to come…
Paul and I were madly in love. Naturally, the next logical step was to move to the next level. In our case, it was moving in. It’s curious how we use the phrase ‘next level’ while referring to relationship milestones. I can’t help but…
Dating a white guy wasn’t something I aspired to do. As I hardly interacted with many of them, I never considered being with one until I met William. I had started working on the side of the city where I frequently interacted with them. As…
“I don’t know what to do. Do you see the dilemma I’m in?” I told my best friend. This was a few weeks after meeting Andrew. “I don’t know why you’re calling it a dilemma. You have worked too hard to date a broke guy,” my best friend…
It was the same fight for the umpteenth time—yet not the same one. It was a month before my wedding to Sally. We were finalising most of the items to avoid excess pressure as the D-date drew nearer. We were finally at the homestretch after…
“Go to school, and make your own money so that when your husband gives you nyokonyoko, you can leave him for good.” Those were words my father would often tell me. This mainly happened as he dragged me with him to his escapades. In those…
Are you the kind of person who goes down a rabbit hole trying to figure out why something went wrong and what you could learn from it? Well, I am. I couldn’t decide what the Universe was trying to whisper on this occasion. On the one hand,…
Do you want to know the number one mistake made by first time authors? They write their book for everybody. And when you write for everyone, you don’t connect with anyone. Let’s face it, 97% of people who start writing a novel never finish…
Did you know that in Japan, food businesses are required to use visuals that closely match the actual product? If a cookie’s packaging shows a thick cookie with a specific arrangement of chocolate chips, you can expect the cookie inside to…
Perhaps love’s first duty is to listen. I was never going to be a diehard sports fan—not when Brian loved football, basketball, rugby, tennis and track events. I could hardly keep up with the number of players per game, the different…
