Launch Date: June 12, 2024.

This story is a whirlwind romance that transcends continents, showing both deep emotional and challenging journey ahead for the protagonists. The story brings a modern feel of liberal in*******al relationships. Oreoluwa has outdone herself in narrating the African cry of crime, greed and inheritance. She also touched on racial lines. I'd recommend Blackbird to everyone.

Andy watched Dora leave the bar. He was what the British call gobsmacked. The shock left his mouth open; the card Dora had left dangled between his fingers because he didn’t have the muscle strength to grip it. Not to mention the ringing in his ears. His body was experiencing various emotions at once and he could not process them all.
“Here you go mate,” the waitress said, placing the short, stout scotch glass on a square white serviette before him. She paused to look at the human statue he had become and the followed his gaze over to the bar’s exit doors.
“A little lover’s quarrel with your lady, is it?”
Andy felt the shock ebb away from his body a little bit. He turned to look at the woman serving him. She looked more like a school matron than a waitress at a bar. Her eyes seemed kind as she waited for him to respond.
“That lady was at the bar, sat on that stool over there from morning till night for three days straight except for bathroom breaks, waiting for you apparently.”
Andy’s eyebrows shot up in surprise.
“Whatever just transpired between you two shouldn’t worry you so much. She clearly adores you.”
Adores? A mirthless chuckle escaped Andy’s mouth.
“Well, thanks for that. You’re very kind,” he said.
“All part of the job mate,” she said with a smack of her lips, “don’t forget to tip your waitress,” she added with a wink.
Alone once again, he allowed his mind to roll over to the conversation he just had with Dora.
