If you love a thrilling love story, Quicksilver is the one for you, I said out loud as I typed the words into my author's note.
I smiled heartily, I just finished editing my book, Quicksilver and I am so super proud of myself. I am even working on another one, but it will be focusing mainly on the relationships between God and man. It's going to be based on the boundless and inestimable love of God towards man.
The weather was kind of beautiful today, the sun was shinning brightly in the sky. I was sitting right outside the house, in a secluded part in the compound with my laptop on my laps. An eerie feeling skittered up my spine, it

I need him to admit to me the reason why he married Hadiza in the first place. He has to tell me everything.I paced round the sitting room, impatiently waiting for Bayo to come out of the room. He just came back some few minutes back.

I called out, raising my voice higher, so he won't have any excuse of saying he didn't hear me call."Is there a problem?" he replied, eyeing me."There is no problem, but a problem will come up if you don't spill." I said angrily.

I added, smiling widely.After I left my father's house, I came home directly, having it in mind to confront Bayo.

Darkness beffiting the quiet night, shinning little stars and then the full bright moon, that was what I could see in the dark sky. I was sitting on the pavement outside my house, a self contained apartment. I drummed my fingers on my laps as I hummed a familiar tune my grandmother taught me when I was still a child.As a little child, I loved listening to folktales under the moonlight, but now that I'm all grown up, I quenched my anger for good stories by reading novels. Yes, I am bookish. A bookworm, I love reading books, good books. Maybe that was what pushed me into writing, my passion for writing was something that grew up with me and also still lives within me.
