“Period in 3 days” the Flo app notification beeped as I was about to put away my phone and sleep. “How does time fly so fast”, I thought. it seemed like it was just a few days ago I was writhing in pain from menstrual cramp and just like that, another will soon be here. […]

The Gain in My Loss

As I sashayed to her office, like the corridor was a runway for a fashion parade, the soles of my shoes made tones that my waist seemed to be in tune with, my flare skirt was twirling like a tireless flag. A thought struck my mind as I was about to knock on her office […]

Man-to-Man
