The Devil Woman from Africa

Ndja Nglwan, a recent graduate from the University of Abidjan, begins his teaching career in the small northern town of Korhogo. While there, he falls deeply in love with one of his students, unaware that she is already entangled in a committed relationship with an wealthier older man-a sugar daddy. Despite the risks and complications, Ndja Nglwan and the young lady embark on a passionate affair. However, their happiness is short-lived when the older lover grows suspicious. Though he fails to catch them in the act, he takes swift controlling measures that temporarily drive a wedge between the pair.

Amid the increasing tension, political unrest, and the encouragement of a close friend, Ndja Nglwan makes the life-changing decision to emigrate to the United States. Several years pass, and out of the blue, the young woman contacts Ndja Nglwan from England, announcing that she has ended her relationship with her old lover. Revitalized by her words and the memory of their shared past, Ndja Nglwan becomes determined to reunite with her. After many exhausting and unsuccessful attempts, he finally manages to bring her to America.

However, what begins as a hopeful reunion soon turns into a nightmare. Ndja Nglwan is bombarded with calls from arrogant men seeking her affection, and he uncovers a string of mocking and provocative messages as well as love letters from her lovers. The young woman's behavior and responses suggest that she still entertains their advances, sometimes even on the bed she now shares with Ndja Nglwan. Burdened by a growing sense of betrayal, Ndja Nglwan began to realize that the people he had once considered friends were nothing more than backstabbers, liars, and manipulators. The very individuals he had trusted and leaned on were the same ones undermining him behind his back. As the layers of deceit unraveled, he found himself increasingly isolated, forced to distance himself from their toxic influence. Ndja Nglwan stood at a painful crossroads, knowing he had to sever these ties for the sake of his own peace and well-being. It wasn't just his ill-intentioned so-called friends he had to cut out of his life; he also had to make the agonizing decision to kick out the young woman he had waited for so patiently for five long years. The realization that she, too, had betrayed his trust was a devastating blow. For the past six months since she reentered his life, misery, anguish, and sleepless nights have plagued him. His friends have shown their true colors, revealing envy, jealousy, and animosity. Letting her go was as heart-wrenching as it was essential, but Ndja Nglwan knew that to reclaim his life, he had to sever toxic relationships that had poisoned it.
