Bisi's Pov
Being single was not all I thought it would be, I feel so lonely and miserable. No wife, no friend, no companion, worst of all no love. I used to have them all but now nothing, my life feels vacant and void, engulfed by the darkness that is almost touchable.

Bisi's PovDating Scott was a thrilling experience, and it was quite different from what I was used to. He didn't have to say he loved me but showed he did.
*******************Bisi and Scott have been married for two years now, they have not fallen out of love but rather their love has grown beyond just physical needs. Bisi had also lent his voice to the LGBT community in Nigeria, he had used his own story especially how he had overcome the hate and fear to live his life and love whom he wanted to love.
BISI'S POV It took only a split second for my whole life to flash before me, my past came to mock me in the cruelest way ever, while my future was miles away unaware of the judgment my kinsmen had passed on me.
Esther and I didn't spend the rest of the day alone and I avoided eye contact as much as possible.It was almost eight years now since my parents warned me never to talk about it or even think about it.
Esther had moved on from me, from us. She now dates the president of our school student union. The most popular and handsome boy in school.Sometimes I wonder why she felt he was a better option. I agree I never could give her the sexual pleasure she desired. But that other boy was Casanova and a bully.
After the incident with Jude, I tried to avoid him as much as possible, what if he realizes what I feel? what if he tells others about me.?I decided to visit home for two weeks, maybe I would forget it happened and it was just a figment of my imagination.
Jude's departure to a foreign land for fear of being killed hit me thinking about my own situation.I wasn't ready to die yet or become a source of grief to my friends and family.
