DREAMS.

I felt it.
I felt the rush of adrenaline through my veins and my nerves were shot with the pain that comes with anxiety. I felt every single emotion, I was a rollercoaster with faulty levers, hurtling towards the ground. I couldn't quiet the voices in my head, they grew louder with every passing second and I tried to quiet them, I scratched and clawed at my head and they laughed at my vain efforts as I watched blood run down my fingers and trickle down my chin.
Slowly, my blood turned to ice, my feet became blocks of lead and I wondered, "is this how it ends?"
I closed my eyes in a finality so sure and waited for the bliss that comes with that splat on the ground. And I heard a splat all right, my mom smacked my legs and yelled something, I blinked once, then twice, it was just a dream.


😂, I decided to try this for a change.
Do read through and tell me what you think.
P.S: the fiction series will be starting soon.
PP.S: I missed all of you. Did you miss me?

COMING ATTRACTIONS

I was walking down the road that led to the halls of residence when I heard a familiar voice shout 'Suze! ' I rolled my eyes and kept on walking knowing the caller would persist, and I wasn't wrong. 'Suze! Yo, Suze! wait up! ' I groaned inwardly and stopped, making a very quick about-face. 'yes, Lanre, what do you want? ' this time, I added in my head, as I watched him walk up to me, quite briskly. Lanre was a cute guy, swoon worthy and he had the girls in droves, but for some reason, he liked me, hmph, I thought. He smiled and I could see the beautiful teeth and dimples in both cheeks that drove all the girls wild, 'now, now, babe, I been trying to reach you, y'know, you been avoiding me ", he said as he took my hand in his. I rolled my eyes again, did I mention that his entire family lived abroad in the USA and his father had sent him down to Nigeria to teach him a lesson in humility? I couldn't say it was working, since he was expecting ...

THE MAN.

You have misjudged me. Yes, you just snorted in disapproval and one thought ran foremost in your mind, dear reader. " I thought she was cynical and didn't like the dude, she's all talk and no action. " That is true, I did say I was cynical and this man's attitude when we first met had bolstered it, but then, that day with Lanre revealed another side to me I thought I had successfully suppressed. I liked a man to be dominant, a take charge kind of guy and this guy had just blown me out of the water, I found myself helpless, unable to fight all the feelings that were suddenly coursing through me, and so I had gotten into the car. So, dear reader, do you understand now? Do you understand why I seemed indecisive and weak willed? This did cost me a lot as you are soon to find out. Years down the line when I first started seeing a therapist, she said I had had little to no control over my emotions and my emotions had, for the most part, influenced every single decisio...

LOOM!!!!!!

"Abeg, give me 1k."  That was what my friend said when she saw me last Thursday at my faculty. She had called me earlier, inquiring as to where I was, and she came to meet me. So, imagine my amusement when she comes and says "Abeg, give me 1k"😁😁.  So, good friend that I am, I asked her what she wanted it for, and that was how I entered the Loom and Bloom train! 😇😂😂 Hilarious, right? I am not a money schemer or ponzi scheme fanatic, no offense to persons who are 😋, but this one sounded so good. I didn't have to work on referrals, the other group members would do it😎, I just had to pay and wait to cash out! Ah, 8k in 24hours, who turns that down? I paid the money and entered the group o. And a day later, my enthusiasm died and I quit 😇.  Many people have said that Loom is a ponzi scheme, that it will crash and affect the persons at the bottom of the pyramid😬😢, others flood their status daily with pictures of them cashing out, others still are indi...
