From A Simple Hello To Being A Close Pal by @funshee

"Among the things I have learned in life is that friendships can come in many shapes; some people we have known for a long time before we start to develop a relationship with them, while some, the moment you meet, you just kind of connect with them in a special way and your relationship can hit it right from there.”.

Níké and I by @ginika

I met Níké at a Union bank here in Jos, Nigeria. The scarcity of cash has not been fair to her since she arrived in Jos from Uyo. I happened to bump into her while she was having a disagreement with some people in the queue. It seemed like the security guard had allowed 5 elderly men who had just arrived at the premises to go into the bank with the support of some other individuals in the queue..

Friendship Born in Adversity by @vickoly

Life walks in mysterious ways, and with different encounters comes with it loads of surprises to let out of its bags, one of which is regarding human relations, friend acquisition, and the like. Through the years, I've come to bond with some people and even become good friends when, at first glance, I would have doubted such would have ever played out, probably because I'm not the type who easily wins over friends due to my introverted nature, but one particular life-and-death encounter led to a friendship I never thought would emanate

The Meeting. by @george-dee

It was the second week of resumption in the polytechnic and as a fresher, I was gradually settling into the school environment. I got to school premises feeling excited as usual that morning, but the thought of someone occupying my favorite spot in the class crossed my mind immediately I noticed the school was more crowded than the previous week. I hastened my step and silently prayed that the spot was still available for me.

The Long Journey Encounter; The gift of My Dearest Tolulope by @flourishandflora

It was time to serve my nation with a one-year mandatory service, and fear gripped me, Hmm! Especially at the thought of being posted far away from my home state to a place I knew nothing about. The dread of leaving my mother, my comfort zone, was overwhelming. I became a prayer warrior, seeking strength for the journey, when I have never traveled far from home for anything in my life. I am from the Western part of Nigeria and my serving in the west was under probability.
