Andrew and Magdalene were one love birds whose love life was enviable, even among their friends. The single ones hoped they meet partners like them and the married ones wished they had what they have. Andrew is a 33 and a banker, and Magdalene 27 and a bussiness woman. They've been married for four years (been together for 7 years) and they have a 3-year old son. They were one happy family with less drama and lots of love. They did have misunderstandings like any normal couple but they were always quick to resolving it and back to their blissful love life. But unfortunately they has to separated for awhile because Andrew's job had to transfer him to Accra for a year(they were living in Sunyani) and it was torture for them. The night before he was to leave was a sad and hard moment for them. Magdalene cried of missing her husband and Andrew was not happy about the idea of leaving the side of his family either, but there was nothing they could do. He howev...

Max and Serwaa had planned to go to the beach on that holiday. "But you can come with Babs just in case our meeting will be awkward like you say, we can all feel comfortable with her company" Max suggested when they finalized on their plan. So serwaa agreed to ask her sister to come along. Max and Babs are no stranger to each other. They had spent a couple of times together. Sometimes Max joins the sisters on their sit outs and the three of them liked that company. So Serwaa asked Babs to come with them. "After all you don't have any plans on the day and mom and dad will not be home so even if you decide to stay in the house you will be alone and how boring that will be. I cannot even enjoy my outing knowing you are home alone. So lets go, cmon its a holiday", Serwaa persuaded her sister, and she agreed.

But she knew she had to stop him…. So whiles enjoying his kisses and losing her senses, thankfully a part of her sense could still function and she thought, if anything happens between them, it will be a disaster. First, Max has not even proposed to her and second, she does not really love this guy. So apart from him thinking of her as an ‘easy go’, it will also ruin their friendship and friends with benefits is not something she is a fan of. So she immediately brought her whole sense back into her being and found the courage to push him away. “No!!! She said softly "I’m sorry but we can’t do this”, she said, whiles picking up her shirt and dressing up as quickly as possible.  “I need to leave”, she said, rushing out of the room even before Max could utter a word. Max then rushed after her, feeling terribly bad.  “Serwaa please wait!! He said with a shake in his voice. “I’m very sorry, I didn’t mean for that to happen please don’t be mad”, he said. Serwaa h...

"Ahh!!! thank God you are home. We have been worried sick about you with the way the rain is pouring", Serwaa's mother said, the moment she rushed inside. "How did you get home, and you are not even a little bit wet? Did you pick a taxi all the way from your work place?  She questioned. So Serwaa told her mom she met a school mate who gave her a ride home.  Well since it was through the school mate she got the ride home, I think technically she can say he gave her a ride right? Serwaa is a 27 year old worker on the weekdays and a student on the weekends. And though she would really want to live on her own, she  is not. She lives with her parents and her elder sister Barbs, who is 29.  Their parents still have the old believe that it is rather right for a man to go looking for a woman they want for a relationship from their parent's home. They believe men do not take girls living on their own serious, so for them, any man who would want a serious re...

Serwaa was in a hurry to get home because it was very cloudy, as if the sky was coming down. It looked like if it started raining, it wasn't going to stop soon and she hates rain because it makes her sick. So she rushed to the bus station to catch a cab but there was no car in sight. She made an attempt to order Uber but she realized the networks were down. "Damn if I knew it was this cloudy, I would have ordered the uber earlier with the office's WiFi. Now these networks are down and I can't even make a phone call to my sis to come pick me up" she thought to herself. Whiles she was standing at the station angry and thinking to herself, the wind got stronger so she tried to cover her face with her handkerchief to prevent the heavy winds from blowing dust into her eyes. And then a car pulled over. "Hey Serwaa is that you? A voice which seem to be coming from the car that just stopped infront of her asked. So she took the handkerchief  from her ...
