Who am I?

How do I begin to tell this story. I think to start from the beginning. In the beginning, there was a planet in a boy's hand. He kicked the ball across the cosmos and the wind of space rippled and opened a gate into this rich man's house. The rich man's son wanted the world for himself but the boy refused. It was his. His father had made it for him.- @warpedpoetic

NA ANYWHERE BELLE FACE

BREAKFAST 🥞 i thought as I smiled. Breakfast this morning would be at Mama Tobi's Buka(a kind of mini restaurant) located at the bus stop which was where I was currently headed.
I dodged a few egbon adugbos on my way but unfortunately one of them spotted me. Egbon adugbos are just senior or older guys around the area but in street slang they're used to describe guys in the area who just hang around smoking and engaging in street fights. The only advantage to knowing them is you could count on them to protect you from any form of victimization.- @hazmat

Second chance

He ran with her and they entered the train on time before it moved. Then he made sure she'd buckled her belt tightly and he did same as the train took off at top speed. It was so fast that he couldn't hear what his little girl was saying as she shouted at the top of her voice. They made it round the curve and it's speed double, this time his whole face stretched and they threatened to come out of his skin. He was having the time of his life and it was clear his little angel was too.- @chincoculbert

“The Shah family. Power for power”. She turned round twice and howled. Her caped made a display tossing peaks of cloud around. Lightning struck. She let her hand forward and seized my sister’s broom with her wand. “ No wait, you are making a mistake”. Nakiya cried out and looked at me. Surprise dangled in her eyes. I couldn't hold her gaze. I looked away. I had betrayed my sister for a throne. "- @kei2

The other applicants who came this far sat even before they were asked to, the M.D said. You seem to be a responsible lady. As he raised his head to look up the second time, he noticed that her face looked like someone he had seen earlier.
"Are you from Okegun?". The M.D asked her.
" Yes, I am, sir". Ashura replied, with a voice as silent as that of an angel.-

Love is never blind

this beautiful environment, Raymond saw a very beautiful woman standing alone in a corner, holding a glass of wine in her hand, which she was sipping slowly.
She wore a dark red gown with a wide cut in the front, her milky chest was visible from this cut, and her leg part of the gown was also cut very high, from which her beautiful long legs could be seen. The gown was engraved with gold strings, had a diamond necklace around the neck, rings on three to four fingers, and golden hair on the head. She had a very charming smile on her face. - @fantom22
