Blood and Banter

Blood and Banter

by Aribatise Temiloluwa

One family business. Three siblings who never agreed on anything. Six months to run it together or watch it all get sold out from under them, and each other along with it.

Compound Child

Compound Child

by Aribatise Temiloluwa

Compound Child by Aribatise Temiloluwa She grew up behind a black gate her father painted every harmattan season, safe from everything except the ordinary business of learning how to be around people. No scandal ever touched her. No single bad night. What she carried instead was quieter than that: eighteen years inside a compound that gave her discipline, faith, and protection, but never once let her practice the small, unremarkable art of walking into a room and staying in it. By the time she reached university, then work, then her thirties, she noticed the cost showing up in places no one had warned her about, the invitations that stopped coming, the friendships other people seemed to grow without effort, the promotions that went to louder, easier voices. Compound Child is a tender, unflinching look at what gets left out when protection becomes the whole of love, and what it takes, even late, to learn the things a locked gate never taught.
