Ruyi's World of Books & Stories

Written by  Omoruyi Uwuigiaren It was a lazy evening. After a long hard day’s work, Jim Paterson stumbled out of his office to catch a bit of fresh air at his balcony as he awaited the arrival of his friend, Frank. The poor soul was an integral part of Jim’s life and their bond have reached the high heavens. Two creatures brought together by mutual love could no longer live apart. Jim is a perfect gentleman in good shape. Towering high, brown piggy eyes and his head like an egg. All the good things of this life are well within his reach including thin lips hidden under a heavy line of mustache.
