EPISODE 8 She finally got the courage to pick up the call after she realized and confirmed she was all alone in the room. "Hello, good morning. How are you doing? Sorry I missed your calls" Adenike said "Adenike, good morning. I have been good and you? Sincerely, I don't know what is happening to us? Ever since you started this job, you have not been yourself. You don't even have time for me. If I call you, you won't pick and you won't call back. If I text you, I get late response from you.  Honestly, it's not been fair and I don't think you can take half of what you are doing to me. Is it because you know I love you so much. We don't even have time for our personal prayers and Bible reading. What exactly is going on? I can't concentrate on anything. I'm worried about you but it seems I'm the only one feeling this same". Ayoola said as he poured out his mind  "Sincerely Ayoola, I don't know what to say. It's not a...

EPISODE 7 Adenike couldn't join the family for morning devotion because of time. So NLP(Next level prayer) became her morning prayer dew as she listen to it from the bus till she gets into the office. Most time, she get to the office early before anyone else, so she keep herself plugged and pray. This was all her plans to keep herself inclined and revived for long but how long can she continue with this? "Good morning Nike" Gbenga said as he got to the office early today. Nike in shock, remove her ear plugs and replied "Good morning Sir".  "You are quite early today, is your place not far from here? Or you are also among the early birds? He asked as he smiled "What is he looking for?Nike thought before she responded. "Actually my place isn't far from here but due to the traffic, I leave home early to arrive on time but to my greatest surprise, the road was free and that's why i'm here early"she said "Ooh...okay. Sorry, are yo...

EPISODE 6 "Ever since she started this job, she hasn't given me a full attention. She hardly even respond to my message even if she is online she doesn't reply frequently. What's happening? Has she seen another person because she has changed" Ayoola said to himself as he picked his phone, called her but she didn't pick up again. By the time Molade got home, Adenike was already sleeping. The next day this time Adenike set alarm an hour before work time. So, she got up and prayed. She was feeling very much better but within her she feel she is drifting apart but at this moment, it was late to back out because she has decided to give it her all and make sure everything comes to pass. "Aunty Molade ..... wake up" Nike said as she knock on her door. Her sister was surprised as she picked up her phone and check the time.  "Nike is that really you? Can't believe you can get up by this time" she said as she open the door. "Me i'm serio...

EPISODE 5 "It was really a stressful day for Nike especially knowing her job comes with an expected target. She couldn't stop but think all the way from office till she got home. The traffic has it's own side effect. A journey of 30mins became 2 hours. She hasn't been close to anyone in the office. She choose to stay alone to avoid office gossip and to subtract additional headaches. "You need space it's too early to get attached to anyone" she always remind herself. "Ahhh .. thank God" she said as she got home.  "Kilosele (what happened)" Her mother asked "Nothing o, I'm just tired and I'm having headache " she said looking extremely tired "Pele (sorry), aren't you going to eat? So that you can rest after" her mother said "Mummy, I don't feel hungry. I just want to sleep and the fact that I have to be present tomorrow at work....Arrrghhh" she sighed "If you don't want to go, you ca...

EPISODE 4 "Hello Nike. Bawo ni (How is it). Are you fine? Is everything okay with you? Are you sure you can cope there? If you cannot please be coming home" her mother said  "Oh Mother! I'm okay. I'm not a small child, if I wasn't convienent I would have gotten home. By the way, I just started I guess I shouldn't be tired now" She said "Okay. Agidi yi nani (it's this stubbornness)" Her mother said "You know what mummy, work is about to start. I will call you back" Nike said as she ended the call Truth be told, she isn't convienent with the job but she can't sit at home and keep begging her parents for money instead of giving them. She has being that kind of person right from the beginning. Even though her sister is working but she still feels the whole financial burden is on her and she just need to do something to help not just at home but to the ministries she is committed too. Did I just hear someone say "I und...

EPISODE 3 Adenike alighted at her bus stop and waved to her sister as the bus left. It was the first day as an official staff of the organization. She was a little bit scared because she didn't know if she will meet up because she has no experience being a customer service rep.  As she was trekking towards the office gate, she began to speak in tongues till she got to the gate. She was following the Morning prayers with Pastor Bolaji Idowu(NLP) "New staff? The security man as he was expecting her to point her card. "Yes" she responded "Okay" He said as he allowed her entered The NLP prayers was still going on so, she connected to it as she was walking towards the office main door. She got there and was surprised that the door was still locked and people were outside waiting for the HR. She wanted to be sure she was in the right place so she approached someone "Hello sis. Good morning, is this KITE COMPANY? She asked gently "Yes. Hope no problem? D...

EPISODE 2 It wasn't the usual way for Adenike. Two months ago, she finished her NYSC but she couldn't get a job with her discipline not because she didn't graduate with a good grade but because there wasn't any job. She got her job through her Elder sister, though it hasn't been easy for her but she just had to do it to avoid sitting down at home and also to assist her retired parents in terms of bills. Being a customer care representative wasn't part of her dreams but it is what it is as people says. "Aunty Molade, I'm done o" She shouted from the room as she arranged her bag "Just come to the sitting room, I'm waiting for you as usual" Her sister replied. Some minutes later, she came out looking well prepared for the day even though she had a short night rest. Adenike is a Christian as well as her family. She is the most spiritual one amidst her siblings. She is the 2nd born and fondly called "Mummy G.O" because of how she...

EPISODE 1 "ADÈNÍKÉ, Omo Oba There's so much you can do You are made to be a queen You are crowned,.. Live long queen of the kingdom.." Suddenly, a strong slap was felt on her left thigh "Wake up! Can you imagine, sleeping like a log of wood" Molade her elder sister said as she continued until she saw her make some moves Adenike, shifted her legs and sat on the bed.  "Aunty Molade, can't you wake someone up in a gentle way must it be in vawulence (Violence). I was having a very nice dream but now, it's all gone. Why are you always like this? "Hmmm, it's like someone has forgotten it's Monday. You will wait tire for bus. Just dey play, if you like go back to sleep. I'm going for general prayers (Morning devotion with the family)" Molade said as she stood up, looked at her for a while and went outside "Oh God! But to be sincere why am I always having this dream and I'm always interrupted. I don't even get to know wher...

Where did it go? The question I ask myself, I don't understand, How did I lost it? How did I lost that passion for God How did I lost that hunger for God? My God! Yes, I still speak in tongues But, there's no vibe That zeal like I use to have while I was in campus That zeal like the first encounter with Him My God! Where did it go? That Hunger and drive, I can't find it anymore... How did I get here? How did I get back? Someone help me..."NIKE said as she cried... Dear Sisters, A lot is embedded in the Novel, ADENIKE and you should not miss out Stay with me as we journey together next week.

Trapped with nowhere to turn,  Everything is changing, Life is changing beyond my control,  causing this deep ache in the bottom of my soul. Someone else is pulling the strings, I want to dig myself out,  filled with despair, filled with doubt and uncertainty. I have been mute not able to express,  this gnawing pain and feeling of relentless distress. Tears that are not visible to the naked eye,  Silent screams that no one can hear. I try to speak but nothing can express,  this feeling of sadness and worthlessness. Emotional pain,  Walks with me through the day,  and sleeps with me through the night,  leaving me depression with no strength to fight. Anger for not having the courage to turn things around,  keeping me anchored to this remorse,  Not able to untie the chains and change my course. Tempting words, Always there to whisper in my ear. Time wasted, Lots of hurt,  Lots to repent. Solace, please come and calm my soul,...

  I lay in bed alone at night and wonder why I'm here. I do so much for everyone.  Why don't they show their care? I met this guy who said he loved me,  something I haven't heard in so long. He used me for my money;  What a ride he took me on. There is so much hurt I feel, so much anger trapped inside. Sometimes I wish my dad were here, but to me he's not alive. I have no one to talk to. These drugs seem to be the only way. Turns out it's a lie just like the smile I put on each and every day. I know outside I'm smiling; it's the face I fake for you, But inside my soul is crying and there is nothing I can do. I know my family loves me. I'm sick of feeling like this walked on rug thrown upon the floor. I lay in bed and wonder what the hell I'm doing here. Can I wake up from this dream? Can I please just disappear?  My dear sisters, There are some situations in life we just need to learn from Life is a training ground and there are many questions we wil...
