extremelygolden: Good one again, Centino.
Please where is Ndifreke's keke? Remember it's still on high purchase, even though he has paid a larger part of the expected monthly installment. He ought to go back driving it while waiting for another modelling job. Abi na the N1m for him account done make am forget hustle?
And why was he so quick to accept Maya back? I wanted her to feel so jealous that she wouldn't ever have the guts to cheat on him again.
All in all, you delivered as usual.
Thumbs up, Centino Very very good observations extremelygolden. Just the kind of stuff I want to hear now. The story is getting longer and the method of writing makes it is easy for gaping holes to appear. Will bear those in mind. As for Ndi and Maya, theirs is not your regular Mills and Boons romance and they aren't Tonto and Churchill either. If the story had ended just when they had that modeling breakthrough, which would have been a perfect ending, maybe we would have been left with the kind of perfection people want to see in romance stories. Also because they are going to be there for as long as the story is told, they can't be that toxic as well otherwise we find a situation that is totally not plausible and we would then have to kill their characters like Talabi and Awero. Ndi is still naive, plus he had no idea what to do with himself when he thought he was losing Maya. He went from Evae to Josephine and fought his boss all because of his emotional immaturity. Getting back with Maya so quickly still follows that narrative. He isn't always going to remain that way. Maya right now is ahead of him experience-wise, but if you read closely, you will see that something else is definitely loading (some have seen that already). But in truth, some boys dey mumu for love  But tori still plenty. Stay tuned. CC ChizzyMaris 5 Likes |

adebayo201: What a twist! We were hoping to see mama Tobi caught in the act of witch and wizardry only for Centino to play us with Mama Akunna. Wow, I'm thrilled.
Agbonyinbo is coming back... Katakata Street will burst up! Imagine, Papa Efe, Evae, Agbonyinbo, Mama Akunna, and Mama Tobi in one compound... Yeh!!!

And Mama Akunna, Papa would soon find out and it wouldn't be good for you o I know where you stand about Ndi and Maya ChizzyMaris. Amuses me.

extremelygolden: I am an ardent fan of Topher052, the author of "My Madam and I" on Family Section, and subsequently "Continuation of My Madam and I" now on Literature Section because those thieves were stealing his story and publishing on their blog and we have to relocate to Literature Section.
Topher052 is a writer who keeps us on our toes at Family Section because reading his story is always like watching an action film. Well it was on one of such days I was waiting for his update that I decided to go through some stories on Literature Section. Believe me that prior to migrating his work to that section, I wasn't really a fan of that section because I never saw any story that thrilled me.
I started clicking and closing stories until I got to 225 Katakata Street and I paused. I mean which one be Katakata Street again, I asked myself. Clicking on it wouldn't cost me anything, would it? So I opened the story, lo and behold I saw MEET MY NEIGHBOURS!
Centino, I want to tell you that since I met those your neighbours at 225 Katakata Street, even my own life has never remained the same again. And I must confess that you deprived me of some nights sleep! It took me 5 days and those nights to read from Page 1 to 185 where I stumbled on your website, but that didn't deter me until I got to page 200, reading some comments before switching over to your blog!
My only regret now is that I too rush the story abeg, come join queue with as many as wait for the updates. The thing just dey pain me die.
Centino, you are a great writer. A prolific and renowned writer. You are simply an embodiment of knowledge and ideas.
For the characters, I like Ndifereke and Maya's love relationship until the latter strayed. And I am happy that Ndi, though unknown to him now, is making Maya jealous.
Nurse Josephine is a national cake. Everybody just dey cut, dey chop. She's too loose for my liking.
I will to see Tobi well again. But what I don't understand in that part is that Akunna went into his house before Tobi went to call him. So why was he not trapped since he was even the main target in the first place.
Mama Tobi got what he deserved.
That Alhaji seems to me like someone that has plans. Iniquity? That one is something else sha.
I am happy Irikefe and Castro are back.
I will like to see Baba Efe dealing with the Togo man.
All in all, your story make sense die and I am following it bumper to bumper.
I give it to you, Centino and Topher052, my two best writers in Nairaland.
Weldone guys!
cc Centino ccTopher052 Wow! Thanks for the appreciation man! Pretty incisive. And it's been a while we had a new comer  When we got to 200 pages and I was being congratulated, I was thinking, it's getting so big people will get scared to begin. Thanks for allaying my fears. Quite comforting to see that after all that reading it was jut the Mama Tobi depositing of the jazz that was unclear to you. Even though I have explained already, I may have to put back the paragraph or make it a line I had deleted that detailed that. I removed it because I had previously stated that she was carrying the thing about seeking the perfect opportunity to place it. We all knew the thing would backfire but no one knew when or how. So I wanted the reader to piece it together since it was an obvious outcome. I didn't see it as a problem. Anyways, nice to have you on our street. The saga continues.  3 Likes |

tsharp: He's an estate agent. Remember when he chartered Ndifreke's Keke napep with Mr. Kingsley once for that purpose. It was mentioned again in the last update. Thanks tsharp. @kaycee9242 EkopSparoAyara this is your answer. He goes out, sees properties and seeks out the owners and offers to manage the property. Was put like that in an earlier episode which is why he charters the keke |

@space01 great suggestion man. And you didn't need to be so respectful. Every writer NEEDS constructive criticism. I'm here to serve and I ask for this kind of inputs. I want comments to come with observations of what may be off color or what could be done better. I know some readers don't like this and think it influences the writer and "derails" the story but it doesn't. Especially because this is a long winding real-time story where the next episode can be influenced by anything in the polity or present life reality. I'm not saying you should come and help me write the story o. But if you feel certain character arcs not doing justice to the story or someone has been forgotten or a subplot has been over flogged, plot holes, I'll like to know. Remember this is part-time for me and it's always a first draft that gets posted so there is no claim to perfection. As I've always said, the story is not ending soon so let's make it better.

unitysheart: Over at the psychiatric hospital, Achike was put back on his former treatment schedule. Tobi needed to be chained down because he could not help the urge to continue his walk to hell. He needed double the dose of sedatives they gave to the most restive patients to remain calm.
Please edit the story and change Achike to Akunna.

eistien: Patience young one, he’ll explain everything but just so you know she planted it after Akuna left the gathering expecting he’ll walk past it when he wants to go out Spot on. I actually wrote the paragraph and deleted it. In a previous episode it was stated that she carried the thing and was just awaiting an opportunity to drop it. Sometimes you expect the reader to use their imagination as well. I considered it a small detail. 3 Likes |
