Series Name: A Girl Like No Other

*Episode 1: "A New Day in Lagos"

Main Character

Her name is Amira Johnson—a 12-year-old girl who stands out wherever she goes. She was born in America but moved to Nigeria with her parents when she was 5. Though she’s a little chubby for her age, she carries herself with confidence. Her round face, bright smile, and glowing brown skin make her naturally beautiful.

Her Parents

Father: Mr. David Johnson – An African-American businessman who moved to Nigeria to expand his company. He’s strict but loving.

Mother: Mrs. Yewande Johnson – A Nigerian fashion designer with a big personality. She always encourages Amira to be proud of herself.

School

Amira attends Gracefield International School, a private school in Lagos with a mix of Nigerian and foreign students. The school is strict but has a lively environment, and Amira has made many friends.

Her Best Friends

Tosie: A fun, outspoken girl who always hypes Amira up. She’s stylish and loves social media.

Jannesa: A quiet but intelligent girl who helps Amira with schoolwork.

Alicia: The “big sister” of the group—mature and protective.

Sarah: The funniest one, always making jokes and turning serious moments into laughter.

Amira’s Day

Morning Routine

The alarm rings at 6:00 AM, and Amira groans. School mornings are never easy. She drags herself out of bed and rushes to the bathroom before her younger brother, Malik, can take over. After brushing her teeth, she throws on her blue and white school uniform, tying her hair into two neat buns.

Her mother is already downstairs making breakfast—akara and pap. “Amira, hurry up! You’ll be late!” her mom shouts.

She grabs her school bag and heads to the car, where her dad is waiting to drop her off.

At School

The moment Amira steps into Gracefield International School, she hears her name.

“Amira!” Tosie runs up to her. “Did you do the math homework?”

“Of course not,” Amira laughs. “That thing was too hard.”

Jannesa shakes her head. “You better start taking school more seriously.”

The morning is filled with classes—English, Social Studies, and Basic Science. Amira loves English but struggles with Math, often daydreaming while the teacher talks.

Break Time

Amira and her friends rush to the cafeteria, buying meat pie and Fanta.

“So, Alicia,” Sarah smirks. “When are you telling your crush you like him?”

Alicia rolls her eyes. “Never.”

They all laugh. Amira loves moments like these—laughing, eating, and just being herself.

After School

The final bell rings at 2:30 PM. Amira is exhausted but happy. She gets picked up and heads home, where her mom asks her to help in the kitchen. After finishing her chores, she finally gets some time to watch TikTok, chat with friends, and do a little homework (just enough to not get in trouble).

As the day ends, she lies in bed, staring at the ceiling. Tomorrow is another day, another adventure.

Closing Scene

She whispers to herself, “No matter what, I’ll always be me. A girl like no other.”
