Love Among the Stars

In a vibrant city, located in the heart of Nigeria, a close-knit neighborhood called Ndokwa. Well known for its bustling streets, lively markets, and a strong sense of community. One warm beautiful African evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting an orange glow across the sky, something magical was about to unfold.

Azubike, a young artist with a penchant for late-night walks, strolled through the neighborhood's narrow lanes, taking in the sights and sounds. Suddenly, Azu's phone began to buzz in his pocket. Startled, he fumbled to retrieve it, noticing it was a call from his girlfriend, Adanma. With a mix of excitement and curiosity, Azu answered, eager to speak to his beloved;

"Hey, Adanma! I have been longing to hear from you. How are you?”

“I’m fine, Azu!. And you? Are you home already?”

“I’m doing fine.” Azu replied.

Behold, as he turned a corner, his gaze was drawn upward, where an ethereal dark object emanated from a compound moving slowly and sluggish towards his direction. He stopped in his tracks, mesmerized by what he saw—a round-shaped plate-like flying object, masked in the darkness with a metallic surface reflecting the moonlight, gliding gracefully in the air, face to face. Then the object suddenly stopped as if it had seen Azu. A few yards apart. Suspended in the air. Then, the object started to ascend, and stopped mid air, a distance about an electric pole’s height. .

"Hey, hey, hey, Adanma! You won't believe what's happening right now," Azu exclaimed, his voice brimming with enthusiasm.

"What is it, Azu?" Adanma replied, her tone filled with anticipation.

Then the object began to display by turning on a light around the edge which formed around its circumference.

“Whao! Whaooo!" Azu exclaimed.

Then, the object turned on a second light. This time, the light looked spot and round, spaced equally round its top bedding.

Azu exclaimed wildly, “Whaoo! Whaoo! Whaoooo!.”

Beaconing at Adanma to see what he was looking at as if she were with him there.

"I'm outside, and there's this amazing thing I'm seeing moving in the sky! It's like nothing I've ever seen before. The lights are so beautiful," Azu gushed, his eyes still fixated on the celestial display.

Then the object continued with its display by turning on its dome shaped light. The light looks like a home LED bulb.

“Whaooooooo, this is so beautiful.” Azu exclaimed.

Adanma's voice held a mix of disbelief and intrigue. “What is that, Azu? What is it?"Are you serious? A saucer aircraft? That's incredible! I wish I could see it too."

The saucer-like object began to move at a leisurely pace, as if playfully dancing. It was adorned with an array of dazzling bright intensity lights that illuminated the night sky in vibrant hues. With the brightness of these lights radiating from the aircraft, creating a beautiful kaleidoscope against the backdrop of the dark canvas above.

Unable to steer his eyes away, Azu marveled at the sheer beauty of the spectacle. He had heard tales of UFO sightings, but witnessing one with his own eyes was a moment he would cherish forever. As the UFO continued its slow glide, it seemed to interact with the environment, casting colorful shadows on the buildings and trees below, as if inviting the world to partake in its whimsical display.

Azu couldn't resist capturing this breathtaking moment on his smartphone, but was so carried away by the display. The lights flickered and pulsated, creating a symphony of visual delight that Azu knew would be difficult to describe to others.

He wanted Adanma to experience the same sense of wonder and awe. "Hold on, Adanma. I'll FaceTime you so you can see it for yourself!"

With trembling fingers, Azu initiated a video call, pointing his phone towards the captivating spectacle above. But it was already too late. The Object had started moving away, gliding quietly. The camera's lens tried to capture the mesmerizing lights, transmitting them across the digital connection to Adanma. The UFO had already begun to fade into the distance, its vibrant lights gradually dimming. Too fast, the flying object was gone.

As the video call connected, Adanma's face appeared on the screen, her eyes widening with amazement. "Oh my goodness, Azu! What you were describing was breathtaking! I can't believe you saw a UFO in your neighborhood."

Azu smiled, their shared awe bridging the distance between them. "I wish you were here with me, Adanma. It's truly an unforgettable moment. But I'm glad I can share it with you, even if it's from afar."

Adanma's voice softened with warmth. "Azu, it's moments like these that remind me how lucky I am to have you in my life. Your passion for the extraordinary, your eagerness to share these experiences with me, it's what makes our love so special."

Azu's heart swelled with love for Adanma. He had always admired her ability to appreciate the wonders of the world, and now, in this extraordinary moment, their bond grew stronger.

As they continued their conversation took on a romantic tone. They spoke of dreams and aspirations, of adventures they hoped to embark on together. The UFO's presence became a backdrop to their intimate conversation, an emblem of their shared curiosity and limitless love.

Azu and Adanma bid their farewells, promising to hold onto the memory of this magical encounter forever.

In the days that followed, Azu and Adanma often revisited that unforgettable night, cherishing the bond they had formed while gazing at the mysterious UFO. They continued to explore life's wonders together, nurturing their love amidst the ordinary and extraordinary moments they encountered.

The tale of the saucer UFO in Ndokwa became a cherished legend, passed down to others, a reminder that magic can be found in the most unexpected places. And on clear African nights, as the gentle breeze rustles the leaves, as they walked hand in hand through the neighborhood of Ndokwa, they couldn't help but glance at the night sky, knowing that, just like that fateful night, their love story would always be intertwined with the beauty of the universe.
