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

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’๐Ÿ˜‚. 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

Ayeeeee!!! It’s the last post for the year 2020! Can we stand and give Limitless a round of applause?๐Ÿ˜‚  Looking back, it’s been a good time coming. Limitless is really a place to be. I mean, I’ve been an avid reader too.๐Ÿ˜Œ I woke up with the feel of dry air in my nostrils and on my  lips. Harmattan has finally decided to rear up its head, not like I was anticipating but, it’s part of the season you know. So, tell me in the comment section, how did your Christmas go? How many pieces of chicken did you eat? Did you go out to chill or you just stayed in bed and pressed phone all day? Mine was not so bad. I went out in the morning and had a full rest when I got back. That’s bliss to me.๐Ÿ˜ Consequently, this is the time for us to really sit back and chillax . It’s just 5 days to 2021. Let’s be thankful for all we have right now. Let’s not brood too much about things we lost, rather, let us be hopeful for better days. We’ve done well. We are stronger despite the highs and the lows.

You could go to these places with a friend, family or alone. So, let’s dive in.  1. Restaurant Date  This is one of the most popular if not the most popular. But who cares?

Welcome to Limitless! The story you are about to read is fiction. Wait, what? I jolted out of my sleep as the strawberry fragrance of my bath soap reached my nostrils. I thought I was dreaming, why can I still perceive this fragrance in real life? I sat up and heard the shower running.  Oh! That must be my annoying roommate, she probably bought the same soap. She came out of the bathroom and I was shocked by what I saw. Isn’t that my towel? I looked up to where I hung mine but it wasn’t there. I stood up to check outside, maybe I forgot to bring it inside in the afternoon. To my disbelief, the towel was nowhere to be found! I entered my room again and just stood by the door trying to sum up what was going on.  “Oh, Kike, I quickly used your towel and soap because mine is in Lola’s room downstairs,” she said with no remorse.  What did I just hear? “What?! You didn’t use just my towel, you even used my soap. Are you crazy or what?” I replied with growing fury.  “Ahnahnn, why are you scre

  Welcome to Limitless!  While I was in the university, I was in a particular hall of residence that the porters and hall administrator used to dash students demerit points anyhow.  Demerit points are points you get when you break a rule. For instance, if you are caught playing very loud secular music on Sabbath day, you would be given 20 demerit points. You get the idea?  Adding to that, if you get up to 60 demerit points, you’d face the hall disciplinary panel. Forty (40) was even the maximum in that hall. (Shaking my head๐Ÿ™„) So, there was this time I stabbed a day in spirikoko (spiritual week of prayer). That’s 20 demerit points because I didn’t sign. Again, in that particular hall, it’s two weeks you would use to clear 20 points.*rolls eyes again*. Meanwhile, it’s just two days in some other halls.  Well, they gave me bathroom duty๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ˜‚. Public bathroom o. I was already thinking of my life and why I came to the stupid hall. One dead voice in my head was shouting “you go scrub scrub,

Overwhelmed

  Shaken, confused, hurt, stressed. You let your walls down and they showed you a million reasons you shouldn’t have. You feel like the whole world is against you, you are irked at the sight of your trigger.  Everything’s overwhelming. You start asking yourself questions about what exactly you are doing. Staggering and pondering, you wonder if really there’s light at the end of the tunnel.  You feel resentful, or maybe angry.  Hey, you are not alone.  Trust me, it will get better.  This is a reminder that you are enough.  Till next Saturday. Bye. ❤️

Feyinti: The Finale

W elcome to Limitless! This is the final episode of the Feyinti Series.  Did I hear right? Did I just hear this guy say baby? I closed my eyes and calmed myself.  “How are you doing?” he asked again much to my annoyance. “How am I doing? Are you really asking how I’m doing after the stunt you pulled? Make it make sense Jide,” I started to wonder what game he was trying to play. “Care to explain what you posted on your WhatsApp status?” I spat out.  Then, he answered, “Oh, what did you see?” At that point, it was like cold water and fire right in my chest and belly. I was getting really infuriated. “Are you seriously playing dumb right now? Was it your ghost that posted happy 20 years anniversary or whatever?”  “You are exaggerating! It’s just 6 months. It’s not like I deprived you of love or anything you wanted during those 6 months. I mean, you didn’t exactly notice. So, why are you so pressed?” Immediately Wunmi heard this because the phone was on loudspeaker, she just put her hands
