There she was, across the aisle at the supermarket, inspecting a bunch of overripe bananas like they held the secret to eternal youth. My heart skipped a beat. No, make that two beats. It had been ten years since I last saw her, and she looked exactly the same, only now she was wearing a…
Love and Longing: The Tale of Jane and Juma
In the suburbs of Kilifi town is a small village called Mtondia. It was here that Jane and Juma’s love story began, a tale woven with the threads of tradition, dreams, and the bittersweet taste of unfulfilled promises.

Across the Bridge
Juma stood on the old bridge overlooking the silvery waters of the creek, his eyes tracing the ripples made by the moonlight.

As they finished their sketches and packed up, Zuri felt a newfound sense of hope blossoming within her. Maybe her grandmother was right; every sunset could lead to a beautiful sunrise.
The sunset adventure

Happy birthday my Sidi
If I could capture the beauty of today in words, I would start by describing you. But no words could ever do justice to the way you light up my world. I’ve seen sunsets that painted the sky with the most breathtaking shades of orange and purple, but nothing compares to the way your presence…
Love’s Final Farewell
The evening sun dipped low, casting a warm orange glow over the horizon as Alex sat on the beach, his heart heavy with emotions he could no longer suppress. The sound of waves crashing against the shore was usually soothing, but today, it only seemed to amplify the turmoil within him. He had come to…
The Silent Echoes of Heartbreak
When Lucas stared out of his window, the world felt heavy. His reflection, faint against the glass, looked like a shadow of the man he thought he’d become. As a young man, he was full of dreams, of being the person everyone looked up to. The one who’d have it all figured out by now….
Seven lonely days
The sun was setting, painting the sky with shades of orange and pink, but Daniel barely noticed. He stood by the window, looking out over the quiet street as the shadows deepened. His heart weighed heavily in his chest, and every breath felt like a reminder of how incomplete he was without her. The apartment…
