“Yes.” She said without hesitation.“That's good. Could he be the right man?”“He would have been, if he was not married.”Now, the doctor was disturbed, 'Could Tony be in an undefined relationship with her? Why did he keep his marital status away from her?' He thought. Finally, he asked, “How do you know that he is married? Have you seen him with any woman?”“No. I have not, but for his age, he should be married,” she responded with certainty. The doctor smiled, and said, “It is okay. I will discharge you when he comes.”“All right. Thank you, doctor.”Tony parked in the vestibule and got out of his car. Although, he had his worries, but he never allowed it to knock against his joy. He walked into the clinic and cheerfully responded to the greetings of the nurses and other doctors, before he walked into the doctor's office.“Welcome back, GM,” The doctor greeted. Likewise, Tony gave him an inquiring look, and answered, “Thank you, doctor. How is she?”“She is fine. Kindly take your se
At the Recreational ParkEvans was not surprised when he got to the golf course and noticed Tony's absence, just like the doctor.“What of Tony?” One of the golfers asked, and looked at Evans. He looked away and busied himself with the game. When he could not get a response from him, he gave up and concentrated on the game, too. After a few minutes, another concerned staff asked, “Don't you think that we should give him a call?” At that point, Dr. Dixon refuted the idea politely, and pointed out, “I don’t think that giving him a call is necessary because he is aware of the training. He may be here any moment from now.”“I see,” the concerned staff agreed, and they carried on with their training without Tony until the day dimmed its face.At the Youths’ Section.Oliver drove Lilian and her father to the park, and afterward Evans got off at the adult section. He had blended properly with the family, and other youngsters. Meanwhile, he carried himself with the gait of royalty. His intera
“Kindly join the queue, Bruno. You are also a client,” she advised Bruno on one occasion. At such point, the only way to get even with her was to rape her. After several weeks of accommodating him, she found his presence repulsive, especially when the money was not flowing as it used to. That night, after selling sex to five clients, and Bruno, who was the last in the queue, was embittered. He sneaked out of his hiding and raped her. Since she was out to throw him out, she capitalized on that and set out to report to the police. Unfortunately, before she returned with the police, as usual, Bruno had disappeared with his few belongings, and he found his way back to the hotel, to meet his janitor friend.The Next Day—At the Blue Sea ComplexIt was a happy moment for Susan and Tony. When he was certain that she was stable, he took her home and inquired, “Can you make it to work tomorrow?”“Yes my love.”“Are you positive? If you have any doubts, I will ask the doctor to inform your unit
“That's good. You have to be circumspect about it.”“I got it, boss. My Soulmatemate,” he emphasized.“I see, but ensure that she divorces Bruno formally before he gets a wind of your relationship.”“It is noted, boss. I appreciate your concern and support.”“Consider it as nothing.”“One more thing, Sir,” Tony called to his attention, and the GMD, who was about to sink into his seat, sat up, and gave him a puzzled look. Then, Tony continued, “My driver made me to understand how he distributed money for Bruno to different security agencies, and how he kept forty million for himself.”At that point, the GMD jaw dropped open, and Tony waited for his response. Nevertheless, he complimented, “Such drivers are difficult to come by.”“That is the truth, Sir.”“That was part of Bruno's gratuity, you remember?”“I'm aware of that. The management used his indebtedness to the company as his gratuity.”“Yes. Do you think we should hand it over to him?”Tony believed that the GMD had the right to
Now, they were already in the car and the children showed him their report sheets. He went through them carefully before he handed them over to Susan for her perusal. Then he turned and looked at the children, who were in the back seat, and remarked, “Your results are impressive.” “Thank you, daddy. Did we make you proud?” Now, Tony, who had turned on his ignition and ready to move, was touched, and Susan was not left out. The children had missed the opportunity of making their father proud. Now, they had one, they put in their best to make him proud. Then, Tony spoke, “Yes. You made me proud, but you can do better,” he pointed out. Likewise, the children were challenged, and they promised, “We will do better.”“Is that a promise or a wish?”“It is a promise.”“That's good. If you top the class, I will take you to Algeria for the Christmas holiday.”Now, Susan smiled at the impossibility of Tony's expectations, and the children did not respond to his demand. When he noticed that they
At that moment, the excited children were already taking snapshots with their mother's phone. Likewise, Susan was emotional about the moment, and she responded, “Yes, Tony. I will marry you, and give you all the love that you ever dreamed of.” Then, she positioned her ring finger, and he inserted the ring. Likewise, she helped him to get up, and he hugged her closely while the children captured the moment, and clapped happily. Then Tony requested, “Children, come to mom and dad for hugs.” The children complied, and complimented, “Congratulations to you.” Thereafter, he informed, “Thank you for your wishes. Let me inform you, mom is pregnant, and very soon, you will welcome your sibling,”“Wow!” They exclaimed, and looked at their mother. Then, she confirmed, “Daddy is right. You will soon have a younger one.”“That is good, mom. Is that why you are robust?” Cindy teased.“Yes. And more beautiful.” Camilla chuckled.In the evening, the couple took the children back to school and return
“Mother, here is the water,” he informed. Thereafter, he sat beside her, and waited for her response. When she was not forthcoming, he tapped her leg, and sat up. Then, he attempted to raise her head and give her the water. To his consternation, she was lifeless.“Mother,” he called out anxiously. Then, he lifted one of her hands, and it dropped like a pack of cards. Now, he gave her a push, and asked cried out in agony, “What is going on?” When he could not get an answer, he ran out of the house to get help. His world almost collapsed when he realized that his mother, and only parent, had drawn her last breath.Previously, her mother was tagged a disgrace to the family for falling pregnant without a husband, and the family treated her, and her son as outcasts. She was an unschooled girl of sixteen years, who worked as a contract staff with the Blue Sea Oil and Gas Group. Before she got the job, she floundered between one menial job and another. In most cases, she plaited hair for th
The December HolidayFrom the look of things, the Group Managing Director would not allow Tony to have an elaborate wedding as he planned. He loved Susan and her children, and wished to flaunt them as if Bruno and Monica never existed. For that, he set the marriage plans aside and concentrated on his official trip to Algeria and the Democratic Republicans of the Congo. Now, the children had their terminal exams and set to proceed for the holidays. However, after the inspirational and motivational words from Tony and Susan, and the assurance that Tony would legally marry their mother, the children returned to school with the boldness of a lion. To keep to their promises to their parents, they worked hard, and it met with success. That Saturday, the couple got to the school with the security team, and parked in the car park like other parents, and chatted happily while waiting for the children to join them.“Did your colleagues notice that you are pregnant?” Tony asked while running hi
