Unforgettable Experiences In The Company Of A Friend At The Mechanic's Workshop by @udezee
During the summer of 2010 (although in Nigeria it was the rainy season), a friend of mine named Chike received a car gift from his brother who lived abroad. I still vividly recall how excited Chike was when he broke the news to me at my Mum's grocery store. I also got caught up in the euphoria of the moment and congratulated him on becoming a car owner.
When love comes knocking by @george-dee
Dija noticed footsteps approaching her room and quickly buried her head under the duvet.
"Oh, she's still sleeping. That's strange", Anna muttered as she flung the door open.
"Hey babe, is everything alright? You didn't eat dinner last night and are still in bed by this time of the day", Anna asked but Dija didn't move or utter a word.

The mystery adventure to summer by @merit.ahama

A scary summer experience by @floraada
Summer is here again when I take my leave from the office to rest from my busy schedule and hard work. I had a beautiful plan to visit another city after which visit my family and friends and also see beautiful places and eat my favourite food - White soup and pounded yam.
The summer heat was huge and as a result, we had to pack our curtains to the side for proper ventilation.
I went to bed relatively early but sleep wasn't forthcoming. My parents and siblings were fast asleep while I was lying down reflecting on the many issues confronting me
