COMPANY CROCODILE TEARS
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ “If you leave this place, I will kill you!” Smith said. “Are you deaf? Now, sit down!” Sarah said with a glare. Professor MacPherson gazed at the saviors’ faces and sat down. “Good. Do you know Louise for the last time?” Sarah said. “No…, I don’t!” professor MacPherson said with a nod. “Professor MacPherson, do you know Louise?” Charlotte said. “I said I don’t know him,” professor MacPherson said. “You are a liar. Just wait for me. Mea vetula! (my old woman),” Sarah said. Her body changed immediately; her eyeballs became very bright, her hair changed into grey and she turned into an old woman holding a walking stick. “You don’t have to run away!” Smith said as Charlotte tried to run away. Charlotte gazed at Sarah’s face and she sat down reluctantly. Sarah stood up from the couch and moved closer to Professor MacPherson. “Macpherson, answer my question,” Sarah said and grimaced. “Please, don’t hurt me. Yes, I know him,” Professor M
COMPANY PUNISHMENT
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ “So you are the useless professor?” king Rehoboth said and stood up from his throne. “I am sorry, my king…,” professor MacPherson said and fell down on his knees. “Point of correction, I am not your king. After all your atrocities, you still want me to be your king?” King Rehoboth said and grimaced. “Don’t be angry, our king. Pardon his foolishness,” Sarah said. “His presence here looks irritating to me. He killed a lot of people,” king Rehoboth said. “I am so sorry, my king. I didn’t kill anyone, some gangsters did,” professor MacPherson said and managed to raise his head up. “Where are the gangsters?” King Rehoboth said and sat down on the throne. Professor MacPherson didn’t say a word, he only gazed at King Rehoboth’s face. Smith hit professor MacPherson on the head and said, “Are you deaf? Can’t you hear the king talk?” “I am so sorry. The gangsters? They are…,” professor MacPherson said and burst into tears. “They are wha
COMPANY DISCREPANCY
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ “Hello!!” Alfred said as soon as he picked up the call. “Good afternoon, boss,” Smith said. “Good afternoon, Smith. How was the mission to Maryland?” Alfred said and gazed at the wall. “It was fine, boss. I will give you the detailed story when I see you. Actually, a party will be held in the king’s palace in three days’ time…,” Smith said and Alfred cut in. “A party?’ Alfred said. “Yes, boss. It’s a thanksgiving party and your presence is needed,” Smith said. “Alright, I will. What else?” Alfred said and saw Davies coming towards the sitting room. “Nothing, boss. That is all I have to say,” Smith said. “Alright. Have a nice day,” Alfred said, and dropped the call. “Who was that, dad?” Davies said and yawned. “It’s one of my friends. What are you guys doing in the room?” Alfred said. “We are taking a nap, dad, and I think you need some,” Davies said. “That’s very thoughtful of you, Davies. I will do that later. Do you want to tell
COMPANY A NEW HUSBAND
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Queen Mackenzie walked to the sitting room. She could see Amelia sitting on one of the couches and clutching a mug. “What’s inside the mug, mum?” queen Mackenzie said. “It’s tea,” Amelia said and took a sip of the tea. She rested her back on the couch and said, “You look worried, my daughter. I advise you to take a nap.” “I don’t feel like taking a nap, mum. Thanks very much for your concern,” queen Mackenzie said. “Now, tell me what’s wrong with you,” Amelia said. “I am tired of living here. I am tired of depending on you for everything I need. I should be the one to help you instead,” queen Mackenzie said and tears dropped down her face. “My daughter is weeping,” Amelia said. She stood up from the couch and moved closer to Queen Mackenzie. She sat down beside queen Mackenzie and cuddled round her. “Have you forgotten that your smile makes me happy? You have to clean your face before we can trash things together,”
COMPANY CLOSE PERSON
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Alfred parked his car in front of Magdalene’s house, he alighted from the car and walked slowly towards the entryway. “Is somebody at home?” Alfred said after he had knocked on the door twice. He heard the footsteps of someone and the door went open. Magdalene was standing in front of Alfred. She was heavily pregnant and looked tattered and worried. “Come in, Alfred,” Magdalene said with a gesture. Alfred glimpsed Magdalene’s face and entered through the doorway. Magdalene closed the door and the twosome walked slowly towards the couches in the sitting room. “You look worried, Magdalene. What’s going on?” Alfred said as soon as he sat down on one of the couches. “We don’t know Willy’s whereabouts, so I called you here to see whether you can proffer help,” Magdalene said and held her head tightly. “This is unbelievable. Where can he be?” Alfred said and gazed at Magdalene’s face. “I don’t know. Today will make
COMPANY SPEECHES
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ “I am privileged to be standing today on this kind of occasion,” Cooper said and smiled, he then continued, “Permit me to acknowledge our veteran king, king Rehoboth, our prestigious queens and the cabinet. A round of applause for them!” The crowd clapped their hands and shouted jubilantly. “Enough, people. I also acknowledge the presence of our saviors. Please, celebrate them for me!” Cooper said and paused for the crowd to clap. When he was satisfied with the claps, he said, “Thank you very much for gracing this party. You are all sets of invitees. Now, permit me to welcome my king to give us his speech. A round of applause for him!” King Rehoboth stood up with a smile and sauntered towards the center of the inner chamber amid the shouts and claps. “It’s okay people!” King Rehoboth said after he had collected the microphone from Cooper. “I don’t want you to see me as the king this minute, see me as a part of
COMPANY VOTE OF THANKS
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ “It’s a privilege to stand before you all and give a speech. First of all, thank you for gracing this occasion,” Alfred said and gave out a smile. “As we all know, today is meant for celebration. So I don’t want anyone to feel intimidated. Drink when others are eating and drink when others are drinking. Besides, we have enough. Everyone needs to be grateful to King Rehoboth. He is a good king. A clapping ovation for him,” Alfred said, and waited for the crowd to clap. He then continued, “If the king didn’t support the idea, we wouldn’t have gone to the half moon. Also, I am grateful to my co-workers. I choose to call them co-workers. A clapping ovation for them.” Alfred waited for the crowd to clap their hands, he then continued, “I think we now have a rejuvenated country. We now have a place of refuge. I don’t want you all to see me and my co-workers as superiors. No, we aren’t. We are all ordinary citizens of California. W
COMPANY ANOTHER CHANCE
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ “Magdalene, you can’t continue to sob all day long. Willy is gone, so just cheer up and continue your life. Besides, you are yet to give birth to your first child. So there is a lot of hope for you,” Alfred said. “So I will be giving birth to a fatherless child. This is unbelievable!” Willy said and cried the more. “A fatherless child? No, you don’t have to think like this…,” Alfred said, and he was interrupted by the knocks emanating from the door. “Hold on! I am coming!” Alfred said. He stood up from the couch and walked towards the entryway. When he was closer to the entryway, he pulled the door and the door went open. “Good morning, sir!” Rufus said. “Morning, sir,” Alfred said and gazed at Rufus and Tristan’s faces simultaneously. “We are here to see Mrs. Magdalene. Is she around?” Tristan said. “Yeah. Do come in,” Alfred said with a gesture. “Thank you very much!” Tristan said, and they entered through the entryway.
