The Return of General Williams 2 The Birthday 3
“Gerald and Samuel,” they shouted in unison.They were attracted by the familiar voices and looked up. They were delighted to see the familiar faces and stood up at once.“Wow!” They exclaimed and hugged them one after the other despite their untidy looks.Afterward, one of them asked them, “When did you come and why didn't you come to check on us?”“We would have done that after leaving here,” Gerald explained.“I got it. How are your parents?”“They are fine. How are your parents too?”“They are fine as well. I'm pleased to see you.”Gerald faced Pa Suresh and informed him, “We will be back shortly.”“It is all right,” he answered and watched them walk away with their friends.“We are glad to see you, Samuel. You have added some flesh,” one of them complimented him.He smiled broadly and responded, “Thank you for the compliment. You look good, too.”Meanwhile, while Tim and the rest were waiting in the car George asked, “Where will the event take place?”“You are right. I have bee

At RakaiaThe news about Samuel's visit had gone around the small community of about eight hundred inhabitants and they were expectant.Likewise, the rehearsal for the upcoming event, which began the previous Saturday, proved that Rakaia was a place with hidden talents, but no one knew it, including themselves. Nevertheless, the other families wished to claim the ownership of Samuel and play the host on that day and trouble broke out among them.“Are you the host, Fabian?” An angry youth asked him“I have been wondering. So, by visiting your family first has made your family superior to ours?” Another person asked and Fabian was lost.“That is not the issue. I am only saying that …”“Saying what?” Another person yelled at him and he was disoriented.“I beg to take my leave,” he said and moved.To his surprise, more than half of the youths followed him and left the disgruntled ones behind.“Let them leave. Who is he to exert superiority over us?”“Just imagine that. After all, Samuel w

On Friday morning, Pa Suresh and his family woke up and looked at the soldiers who were about five hundred meters away from them and minding their business.“Why are they running away from them?” He asked his wife.“I have been wondering. If they wished to arrest us, they would have done that since the day they cleared the field,” his wife responded.Just then, Fabian walked out of the room and asked, “If all of us go into hiding, who will receive Samuel tomorrow?” “He would be embarrassed,” Ann added.“He will be disappointed in me. He believed in us and chose to share his joy with us,” Pa Suresh declared.“I will wait for them. The soldiers can arrest me if they wish,” Fabian resolved, and they continued with their daily activities.At The Auxiliary Armory PLCStephanie and Bright's movement angered Laura who assumed that they were doing that to provoke her.“Scumbags,” she cursed as usual.Nevertheless, the news of Sgt. Young's little brother's birthday spread among the staff memb

Instantly, Gerald opened the passenger's door, got out of the car, and waited for Samuel. His Cadet uniform was good on him and he looked different. “Ha!” Peter exclaimed when he saw a cadet instead of a soldier and his friends were confused as well.Samuel got out of the car and Collins drove off with George. The two began to walk happily to Pa Suresh's house.“Good morning, Pa Suresh. Good morning, Mrs. Suresh,” they greeted before they got closer.The family recognized them at that point and breathed freely.“Good morning to you. We are glad that you could make it despite the tight security,” the old man said.“Why not? Let us go,” Gerald said.“We can hold your party at the back of the house so that we don't disturb the Head of State's event,” Fabian proposed and moved.Whether the two boys understood his explanation or not, they ignored him and instructed them, “Let go. We are supposed to be seated before the Head of State arrives.”“Seated where?” The bewildered Mrs. Suresh ask

The Second in Command settled down and his son collected his phone from him and tried to look at the pictures. Then Bright announced, “Your Excellencies, our distinguished guests, the celebrant, ladies and gentlemen. I wish to announce the arrival of the Head of State and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces.”The hall became quiet at once and everyone looked at the entrance. The mothers held their little children who could cause distraction. Mrs. Bolton looked at his twelve-year-old son, who was in a wheelchair, to ensure that he was stable before she faced the door. Meanwhile, the media crew from the Auxiliary Armory PLC, the Ministry of Information, the government house, and the television houses had mounted their cameras in the right place.Bright was monitoring his movement from the CCTV and was waiting for him and his family to get out of the car. When they were set, he announced again, “Your Excellencies, distinguished guests, the celebrant, ladies and gentlemen. With a s

Out of anger, she mistakenly tapped on the story and the story opened. She saw the celebrant ending his speech but before she could assess the video, he started walking out of the stage.“So his bother is a Cadet as well,” she murmured bitterly.To her annoyance, Stephanie appeared and was smiling happily.“Idiot,” she cursed but heard when she mentioned that the celebrant was sixteen years old.“Must his brother have everything in common with my brother?” She yelled and attracted her parents.Her father, who was in the parlor, sat up from the couch and listened again. Likewise, her mother walked out of the bedroom and asked him, “What happened?” He got up at once and said, “I wouldn't know. Let's find out.”His wife moved swiftly to her room and asked her, “What is it, Laura?”“Today is that stupid Sgt. Young's little brother's birthday and he is disturbing the airwaves with it,” she blurted out.Her parents breathed freely because the issue had nothing to do with her job and their

Laura and her family dropped their argument and focused on the television. Stephanie had no choice but to leave the first youth and walk to the second one to get her details.“My name is Ann Suresh,” she informed her, and she waited for more information.When she got none, she respected herself and left. She watched the others pick empty papers and announce that they picked NOTHING. Meanwhile, Fabian had picked a plane paper, and just like Samuel, he was worried.“Thank God for my new idea,” he said to himself.“Will the Head of State give them jobs in the city?” Laura asked with disdain.“Is it the Head of State or the celebrant? He said it is his gift to them,” her father elucidated.“Does he have a job to offer anyone?”“No. He doesn't have but his elder brother has. I have advised you to be careful with Sgt. Young. Even though you are older he is smarter than you think,” her mother pointed out.She looked into her mother's eyes and asked, “What do you mean?”“He may be planning to

At The Christchurch DomeThey got to the Dome afterward and the children were thrilled by the beautiful decoration and the playground. Before that day, their parents were too busy to take them out, and they were happy with such an opportunity. Nevertheless, their parents were happy to know that they were happy. Apart from playing and running around, they familiarized themselves with each other and made new friends.“I think we can do this once in a while,” the Head of State whispered to his wife.“Do what if I may ask?” his wife asked him.“Bring the children together once in a while. Otherwise, they may not know each other.”“Oh! I'm surprised to know that despite being in the same school.”“Yes. You know they hide their identities.”“I got it. It may be twice a year. You got it.”“It is time for lunch,” Stephanie informed the children after a while.They were disappointed but obeyed. They joined their parents on their tables and began to eat. After the l, unc,h they began to leave o

That evening, they closed from work for the day and resolved to visit the estate and show their appreciation for their cooperation.Likewise, they brought some farm produce to them. To cap it all, the hunters among them brought five sizeable edible gray squirrels.“These are from our hearts. Kindly accept them,” one of them said cheerfully.The workers focused on Valentine who was thrilled with the gesture. The foreigners were thrilled with the neighborliness and waited for him to speak.“This is wonderful. We are happy to know that you found us worthy of your friendship. We appreciate it,” he said.“Thank you for accepting us.”“I hope no one is molesting?” Valentine asked.“No, Supervisor. We appreciate you for your presence.”“You are welcome,” Valentine said and they walked away.He turned and looked at Pa Suresh, who was smiling beside him, and asked, “What do we do with the gray squirrels? I have not eaten it for a long time?”Before he could speak, Tyler and his friends walked

“Thank you, Mark,” they responded one after the other.“Kindly take us to the pavilion,” George requested.“It is all right, President,” he answered and led the way. They moved with him and George was surprised to see Tim walking with the General Manager.'When did he arrive?' He asked himself.Some days are heavy but Tim had to grin and bear it. They checked the pavilion and took notes of the minor work they needed to do before Sunday. George did not have the chance to speak with Tim. However, he was confused when he got on the bus with them.When he looked around and did not see his clunker, he asked himself, 'Did he come with us?'Tim was obediently sitting beside the GM like a wimp and he had forgotten about him. They returned to the complex afterward and got out of the bus. To avoid missing out completely that day, he decided to take the plunge.He followed the General Manager back to his office. When they got to the door, he asked him, “What brings you, Driver?”Now, he had ope

At The Complex.A slave may also have slaves. Tim wished to see Stephanie and would not want to explain his purpose of visiting her to the General Manager. Instantly, he came up with a reason for him to leave the complex and called George.He picked up the call immediately and greeted him, “Hello, Boss. How may I assist you?”“Hello, George. Kindly get your managers to find out if the borough is ready for His Excellency to use it on Sunday.”“Huh! Sunday?”“Yes. It is urgent. We just got off an emergency meeting.”“It is all right, Boss. We will be there right away.”“Thank you for that,” he appreciated him and cut the call.George informed the General Manager of the development and he was on his toes. However, he was happy to hear that. He recalled the line of wisdom that said, to whom much is given, much will be required and attributed it to the recent promotion.He informed the other managers and they converged in the vestibule.Shortly, Tim drove in and arrived at George's office

At Tim's House They met the old man waiting for them in the parlor and felt bad.“We apologize for keeping you waiting, Old man,” Tim apologized when they walked in.He smiled and accepted, “Never mind, Young man. How was your outing?” He looked at the two boys and inquired.“It was fine, Old man,” they answered immediately.“Welcome back,” Francis who began to set the table when they returned, greeted them.“Thank you, Francis,” they responded immediately.Afterward, they settled down to eat. “Was she surprised to see the gifts?” The old man asked curiously.“Yes, Old man. She almost fainted,” Samuel answered.“I recorded everything," Gerald said and the old man requested to see it.He turned on his device and passed it to him. He began to watch the video and Tim studied his countenance.“Oh! She appreciated it,” he said when she hugged Samuel.“Yes, Old man. She is a nice person,” Samuel pointed out.“You are right. It is obvious.”Tim was happy to hear that and asked further, “Is

At The Lobby After Laura's father upset her the previous day, she had not fed well. She was hoping to do that at the canteen during lunch. Now, Barbara wished to impede that.“I can't wait for her anymore. It is my right to go for lunch and I won't miss it because she chose to be away from work for no good reasons,” she concluded. Although troublesome, she was justified in being upset. When she saw some workers returning from lunch with their bottles of sweet drinks and neatly packaged cake, her desire to be at the canteen increased.“She can explain her truancy to Capt. Jaja,” she said picked up her phone and walked out of the cubicle.She was walking briskly and bypassed George who was walking back leisurely with Jerry and his colleagues. He smiled inwardly and said, “You came too late.”Nevertheless, she got to the junior staff canteen and ordered her food before she sat down. While she was waiting, she saw the gigantic cake in the senior staff canteen and wished to have a taste

At The Canteen After the clerk left to get Stephanie, Tim walked back to his car which he parked at a vantage point so that he could see through the canteen's transparent glass window. He smiled heartily when he saw her walking with the two.“Oh, my God! She is pretty,” he said to himself.Meanwhile, George and the other managers had recovered from the shock of the decorations and were sitting on their seats. Samuel was with Bright and taking instructions from him. On the other hand, Bright had informed Barbara that she must work closely with him and return to her office after the celebration.“Ha! Miss Dickson will be mad at me if I fail to return on time,” she made clear.“Tell her that I delayed you,” he undertook for her, and she was calm.Meanwhile, the General Manager and clerk walked Stephanie to the door like a father who walked her daughter through the aisle on her wedding day. Stephanie glared at Bright and said, “You have done your worst. Right?”The GM overlooked her bic

“I'm here, Secretary,” he said when he got to the office.“That's good. I called you because …,” he explained.The clerk smiled happily and asked him, “What do you want me to do?”“Let's go. The cake will arrive soon.”“It is all right.”They got to the lobby and Bright gave Laura a hateful look. He smiled at Barbara and requested, “Kindly come with me, Barbara.”“Oh!” She exclaimed, got up from her seat, and adjusted her wears. Laura could not look at them but kept herself busy with her phone. When Barbara was set, she joined them and they moved. Nobody was surprised when she looked at them with an unreadable expression until they walked out of the door.Within her, she wished to be like Barbara who could relate freely with everyone.“Where are we going, Secretary?” Barbara asked.“To the canteen,” he explained and moved on.Instantly, his phone rang and it was the attendant. He stopped in his tracks and picked up the call. The two stopped, too, and waited for him.“Hello.”“Hello,

“My goodness. Mine was in October. I should have informed him so that he would return the gesture,” Bright teased.“Too bad. That will be in the coming year. I called you to plan it out. How will he surprise her?”“Does he have any gift for her?”“Yes. One of them is a cake. I will give you the contact of an attendant in the mall. You can ask her to deliver it.”“I see. Leave the planning for me. I will inform the General Manager and he will keep her busy until we are set.”“That is good. One more thing. I don't want the former secretary to be part of the celebration. You know the feud between them.”Bright smiled slyly and said, “I got it, Boss. I know what to do to her.”“I trust you. I want a seamless job.”“You can count on me, Boss. Congratulations once again on your well-deserved promotion,” he said sincerely.“Thank you for the compliment. Kindly share the pictures and videos with me.”“I will do that after editing them.”“That is good to hear. Thank you for always covering my

“Oh! I did not see it that way. We should do something different from Oliver's regime. I will invite the Head of State or his representative to the celebration,” the fake Duke said.“Yes. Then you will collect the certificate of recognition,” another elder said.“Also remind him of our allocation. We will use part of it for the celebration,” Elder Kefas stated.They wallowed in fools' paradise and they were happy to arrive at a consensus.At Tim's House They returned home happily and the old man was emotional. He looked at Tim and poured out his mind, “I would have been dead by now if not for you, Young man.”George, who was about to walk to his room, was touched and stopped in his tracks. He faced Tim and waited for his response.“Think nothing about it, Old man. We would all have been dead,” he said and faced Samuel.Samuel was emotional, too, but he smiled dryly and rested his head on Tim's chest. He crossed his left hand on his shoulders and the old man said, “I'm hearing this fo
