He alighted from his car, walked towards the door and knocked. “Hello!! Who is at home?” professor MacPherson said. “I am coming!” Charles’ wife, Peyton, said and opened the door. “Good day, madam,” Professor MacPherson said. “Good day, sir; this face doesn’t look familiar,” Peyton said. “Yeah. Can I come in first before a formal introduction?” professor MacPherson said. “Sure!” Peyton said and allowed professor MacPherson in. “I am professor MacPherson,” Professor MacPherson said as he sat down on a couch. “I am Peyton; it’s nice meeting you,” Peyton said. “It’s a pleasure. Actually, I am looking for one Mr. Charles. I guess this is where he resides?” Professor MacPherson said. “Yeah! He has gone out. Is he your business partner?

They were in their regalia. “My king, will Adalyn not go back to her house again?” queen Mackenzie said jealously. “Of course! She will, once her husband and others’ remains have been interred,” King Rehoboth said. “Don’t tell me that, King Rehoboth!! She must leave this palace now!!” Queen Mackenzie said. “Are you upset?” King Rehoboth said. “Don’t ask me that question, King Rehoboth. Everyone can see how you’ve been carried away by her beauty,” queen Mackenzie said and stood up. “That’s slanderous!! I will not take that!! Get out!!” King Rehoboth said. “I am going nowhere!! We will stay in the inner chamber together!!” queen Mackenzie said. “Don’t try me!! Get out!!” King Rehoboth said. “What’s going on?!” Queen Caroline

They rode on their horses to the king’s palace. The citizens saw the Spartan warriors and began to run for their dare lives. There was a great uproar in the country. “I am entering the rock!!” one of the citizens said to his wife fearfully. “I am entering the fire instead of being killed with dangerous weapons,” another citizen said to his father. The Spartan warriors soon arrive at King Rehoboth’s palace. Some of the Spartan warriors began to beat drums while others began to blow flutes. However, they created a noisy atmosphere within king Rehoboth’s palace and beyond. “King Rehoboth!! Are you deaf to the extent that you cannot hear the sounds of our percussion and wind instruments?!” Orien said. “How could you have the temerity to talk to my prestigious king like tha
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ King Rehoboth watched the Spartan warriors as they rode away with his daughter and wife. His feet were so heavy that he couldn’t enter his palace. “Oh! My wife! Daughter! I am doomed!” King Rehoboth said with tears on his face. “My king! You are weeping?! A king doesn’t weep!” Dean said. “Dean!! Let me weep!! My daughter! Gone! My wife! Gone! My only son! Gone! What am I waiting for?! Let me go too!” King Rehoboth said and removed his crown. “Your life is sustained, my king,” Dean said, and assisted King Rehoboth into the palace. Two days later “My king, you have not eaten for days. Please, don’t kill yourself!!” Queen Mackenzie said, sitting close to her husband. “Leave me alone!! Whore!! Your rival and her daughter have been enslaved! Yet, you have been living well and fine!!” King Rehoboth said. “What do you need me to do?! Should I go and submit myself to slavery too? C
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ The entire palace was silent except the murmur coming from the chiefs who were gathered in the palace. King Rehoboth walked to the inner chamber to meet his chiefs. “Long live the king!!” the chiefs said. “May the ancestors bless you all!!” King Rehoboth said. “Our king! What’s going on within the palace?” Easton said. “I am confused. Could you shed more light?” King Rehoboth said. “Thank you, my king. We heard that you have chased your first wife, queen Mackenzie, away. A snake doesn’t crawl in the day without any reason. So we are gathered here today to hear from you,” Easton said. “Well, you all know from the outset that Mackenzie has been my greatest headache so far. When I married her, she was well-cultured; all of a sudden, she changed into the otherwise. Mackenzie was known for her promiscuous nature and her wickedness. She talks to me and queen Caroline anyhow,” K

She moved from high tune to low tune and this she continued. “Sister Sadie, can I come in?” Ethan said. “Sweetheart, you can hear my voice; I am busy,” Sadie said. “Sorry, sister Sadie; everywhere is boring,” Ethan said. “Alright…, come in!” Sadie said. “You are learning songs again?” Ethan said and sat down. “Yes, sweetheart. The contest is around the corner,” Sadie said. “Which contest?! You didn’t tell me anything about this,” Ethan said. “Oh! I forgot. Davies and the rest are aware. Actually, a non-governmental organization, William’s foundation, has organized a music contest between teenage Americans,” Sadie said. “Wow!! Are you participating?” Ethan said anxiously. “Sure! I am rehearsing for it; I want to defeat my counterparts,” Sadie sa
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Queen Mackenzie was in a sad state, she moved like a simple pendulum to and fro the sitting room. After some time, she kicked the glass cup on the table and it broke; she quickly ran outside. Amelia heard the sound of the broken glass cup and quickly ran after her. “Daughter!! Daughter!! Where are you going to?!” Amelia said with a teary voice. “Leave me alone, Mum. Go back inside,” queen Mackenzie said. Queen Mackenzie stood and began to grasp for breathe, she couldn’t control how angry she was. Amelia quickly ran to meet her. “My daughter, you are upset again. You don’t have to kill yourself because of one stupid king,” Amelia said and rubbed queen Mackenzie’s back. Queen Mackenzie couldn’t hold herself again, tears ran down her face and she fell to the ground. Amelia prevented her from hitting her head on a hard object. “Stop crying, my daughter,” Amelia consoled. “Let me c
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Two chiefs in their regalia walked to king Rehoboth’s palace. The entire streets’ inhabitants were silent so that even strangers could tell that something had happened to them. The inhabitants were like bread that fell into the water. “Why is everywhere silent?” Easton said. Cooper looked at some passersby to confirm what Easton had just said. “I think they are affected by the last war; I can see distresses boldly written on these people’s faces,” Cooper said. “You are right, Cooper,” Easton said. After a short walk, Easton and Cooper finally arrived at the palace. Two guards were standing at the gate when they entered. The two hefty men’s faces were strange. The hefty men could recognize the chiefs’ regalia though they hadn’t seen the chiefs before. “Long live, our chiefs,” Xavier and Lucas said. “May the ancestors bless you,” Cooper said. “Are you guards here?” Easton said
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies was sitting on a couch in the sitting room. It was a hot afternoon. He was sipping a cold wine as he gazed at the television. Before Magdalene and her baby, Edwin and Alfred left home in the morning, Magdalene told Davies to tidy up the clutter and clean the bathroom. As soon as Davies ate his breakfast, he tidied up the clutter. He started from the sitting room. Next, he tidied the clutter of Edwin’s room before he tidied his own room. He cleaned the bathrooms and toilets with soapy water. The work was too much for Davies, so he felt tired. He was so engrossed in the television when he heard the buzzing sound of the buzzer. He muttered some words before he stood up from the couch. It was then that he realized that he was still tired after the morning engagements. He was so excited about seeing Liam. He closed the door gently when Liam entered. The twosome exchanged pleasantries as they walked in the direction of the set
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies was so happy when he received the call in the morning that Magdalene had given birth to a bouncy baby boy. He had gone to take his bath. When he returned to his room, he glanced through his phone’s screen and saw two missed calls. He became worried when he discovered that Alfred was the caller. He wondered why Alfred would call him in the morning. However, when Gino and Gina came into the room, he borrowed Gino’s phone and gave Alfred two peep calls. Luckily, Alfred called Gino’s number. Alfred never knew who owned the phone number, so Davies quickly introduced himself.“Magdalene has given birth to a bouncy baby boy.” These were Alfred’s words before he cut the call that morning. Davies was sitting under the marquee. It just rained so everywhere looked wet. Davies dialed Gina’s number and waited for Gina to pick up the call. When Gina picked up the call, they exchanged pleasantries. “I am unde
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ It was a bright Monday morning, two weeks after Alfred and Davies returned from the hospital. Davies was inside the sitting room when Magdalene walked in. Magdalene had gone to the mall on Saturday to buy food items, because Davies would be resuming school today. When Magdalene got home that day, he showed Davies everything he had bought. Davies took a gaze at the food items. They were majorly what he wanted. He thanked Magdalene.“I hope you have put the food items inside the car’s boot?” Magdalene said gently.“Yes, mum. I finished that some minutes ago. Have you eaten your food?”“No. I will eat my food when I come back. It’s time we went. You shouldn’t be late on your first day at school.”“Before we go, mum, can I tell you something?”“Alright. Be very fast.”“Edwin told me you rarely eat…”“He did?” Magdalene cut in.“Yeah. Please, ensure you eat often because of the baby. I wouldn’t want you to ha
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ King Rehoboth walked into the inner chamber. Beside him were two guards. He was dressed in his regalia, holding his office staff. As soon as the chiefs saw him, they greeted him. The king replied to them before he sat down. A guard stood on the left and held the king’s office staff while the other guard stood on the right.“I have called you here today because of our last discussion,” King Rehoboth said.“With all humility my king, you mean the discussion about Alfred?” Cooper said, standing up.“Yeah. You have a retentive memory.” King Rehoboth smiled. “I have decided that we will help Alfred and his son with money, so that the surgery can be carried out on them.”“From an African adage, my king, a man doesn’t gulp down the hand that feeds it. Alfred has been a backbone to this state. He risked his dear life just to see that others were happy. I think this is the best time we can show our appreciation to him. We
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ When Magdalene got home, she changed her clothes and sat down on one of the couches. She had branched to the mall to buy popcorn and groundnuts as soon as she left Edwin’s school. She took out the popcorn and the groundnut from the bag and started consuming them. After she consumed everything, she became bored. She turned on the television and started gazing at the actions displayed on the television screen. It was an episodic film. Magdalene had watched the first and the second episodes of the film. The actions of the film hadn’t reached the climax, so she had hoped to watch the third episode of the film one day. She visited the cassette store two days ago. She had gone to buy an interesting film when she saw the third episode of the film she had been longing to watch. Without any hesitation, she picked up the cassette and paid for it. It cost 15 USD. It was worth it because it was an interestin
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ It was Sunday evening. Magdalene was sitting inside the sitting room, she was looking sad and inactive because Alfred and Davies hadn’t returned home. Different thoughts were running through her mind. She had left home for Sarah’s house in the morning. She told Sarah about her ordeal. Sarah was so shocked. She told Magdalene that Alfred and Davies had left for home the previous night. Magdalene became more worried. She had returned home and refused to eat. Edwin walked into the sitting room and met Magdalene. Edwin sat beside Magdalene and said, “Mum, you can’t continue like this. You taught me to pray in every situation, but here you are thinking. You don’t have to cause more havoc.”“I couldn’t take it anymore. I have tried Alfred’s and Davies’ phone numbers several times, but they weren’t going through. I hope nothing happens to them,” Magdalene said and couldn’t hold her tears. Edwi
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ The moon was already out. The streets were lighted by the streetlights. The streetlights were used to see in night in California. The lights were charged via the energy from the sun in the day and when the night came, they illuminated everywhere. The lights were so bright that even when a pin fell down, it could easily be picked up. Despite the streetlights, there were still some nooks and crannies in California that experienced darkness because the streetlights couldn’t reach there. King Rehoboth dialogued with the citizens several times. He would tell them that he would create more streetlights for the state. The citizens would leave his palace happily. Yet, King Rehoboth hasn’t been able to create any streetlights. Rehoboth wasn’t a stingy man. He could give anything except his wives. He grew to love his wives. The major problem King Rehoboth had was financial problems. He did not have enough money
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies had restrained from negative thoughts that day. He was resting his back on the couch when he heard a knock on the door. He wasn’t expecting any other people apart from Magdalene and Alfred, who had left for the hospital in the morning. He gathered a ray of hope that Magdalene and Alfred had returned home. To his greatest surprise, it was Liam. He grimaced, closed the door and they walked in the direction of the settees. Davies asked Liam what he would like to take, but Liam refused. Liam told Davies that he wasn’t famished. Davies pleaded with Liam to take cold water and Liam acceded to that wholeheartedly. Davies stood up from the settee and returned, holding a mug. He handed over the mug to Liam. Liam thanked him and emptied the mug before the twinkle of an eye. Davies knew the kind of friend he had. He knew Liam didn’t like to be disturbed when drinking water. So whe
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies was so eager to go home. He has been away from home for the past seven months. He had called Alfred one fateful morning and told him that he had finished his examination. Alfred had promised to come and pick him up next week. Davies stuck his bag to his back. He clutched his luggage. He greeted Gino and Gina before he left the hostel. Gino and Gina were identical twins, so it was difficult for people to differentiate them. They were international students from China. Actually, they weren’t citizens of China. They were citizens of America by birth. They had relocated with their parents to China in search of greener pastures. Many people never believed that they were Americans because they spoke the Chinese language most of the time. The few people close to them could easily identify them as Americans because of the color of their skin and hair. Davies was very angry when the housemaster int
