Welcome to Limitless. This is the third part of Tingles! Enjoy!❤️  ___________ “You want us to talk? The last time I checked, you were the one who wasn’t willing to listen to me”, I said. “Yes, I know. Look”, he said with remorse, “I was young and foolish. I wasn’t willing to look at things with a long term view. I admit that I was the one who did wrong and I’m deeply sorry. Can we meet so we can talk better?” “No way!” I shouted, “I already told you if you are here to turn my life upside down, I’m not in for it. I don’t want to have anything to do with you again” “I swear, it’s just this once Dide. I just want to see you and talk to you. Pleaseee. Okay. Just one hour. I won’t take your time, I promise”, he said.  “Erhmm. Okay”, I heard a loud sigh from the other side of the phone. “But, it’s just this once. Nothing more than that one hour. Where are we meeting?”  I found myself giving in again. I hated that this guy could still cajole me. How weak. “We could meet at the park, our usua

Welcome to Limitless! This is not part of the Tingles series. It is another story entirely based on a real life experience .  Enjoy❤️ “This tree is not good enough. Termites are bound to attack it”, she said to the foresters and lumberjacks behind her. She was the only woman among them.  Her job was to go deep into forests and look for good trees that can be fell and processed into wood. She often got questioned about why a woman would take a job like that. But, she wasn’t born to be timid. Her name wasn’t Akinwunmi for nothing.  She had always been dauntless and adventurous since she was little. Her mother was like that too. She died while saving a family from an accident. “I’ve found one more here”, another of her colleagues said.   She couldn’t hold the pee that was threatening to release itself anymore at that point.  So, she said, “please I want to pee, you can go on with sourcing”.  She walked farther into the forest away from the men’s gawking eyes. She finally found a spot and

Welcome to Limitless. This is the second part of Tingles. He was looking as gorgeous as ever. I hated that he still made me feel the same way. I felt a twinge in my chest at the sight before me. He had in his arms a little girl who had a big smile on her cute face. Then, he held the door open for a lady who threw her head back and laughed at something he said as she entered. Her laughter revealed a nice set of teeth and dimples. The little girl joined in laughing and his eyes crinkled as he grinned too looking at them. I smiled sadly.  The grace he walked with could not be missed. He had become taller and huge. The last time I saw him was that day .  He looked around the restaurant as if looking for a waiter. But his eyes landed on me. Huh? What’s that look? Is that pain I see? Definitely not. I cleared my throat hoping the lump in my chest would leave too.  I lifted the wine to my lips again and gulped heavily hoping my heart would stop being such a nuisance. It was beating so fast an

My Limitless Familyyyy!!!🥺❤️ Happy new yearrrr!!! I look forward to giving you premium and better content this year. I’m just so hopeful that we would do so much more than we ever imagined this year! Don’t forget, baby steps. It’s time to start that thing you’ve always wanted to start. It’s time to be more focused. Fingers crossed, things will turn out fine.  Okay, before I start ‘aspire to perspire and require’😂. Let’s get right into business. The story you are about to read is fiction. Enjoy!❤️ “Yay! Cheers to a new year!” I chorused with my friends. The three friends that are the closest to me. Four of us have been inseparable since our Secondary school days. Now, that we are working, we always made time to hangout.  “Guys! I’m so happy for a holiday like this. I had to pay another nurse to fill in for me this night. I can’t come and kill myself.” Remi sighed contentedly. I looked at her glowing smooth face and could picture it covered in beads of sweat.  “I know right! Thank good
