Thought I Was That Girl” I entered university in my mid-twenties. I wasn’t like most girls in my class. I was older, more exposed, and I already knew what I wanted from life—or at least, I thought I did. I didn’t come to school to struggle. I didn’t come to suffer. I told myself I…
Broken Home #3
Chapter three That was how I continued, slowly and quietly using what I had—my son, my money, my position—to place myself above her.

Built My Business… But Forgot My Life” I’m 32 years old. If you ask anyone about me, they’ll tell you I’m successful. I run a henna business. Not just the normal kind—I’ve grown it. I have machines now. I make henna stickers, designs, custom work. During festive periods like Sallah, I can make over a…
