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
Although he did not explain much, his facial expressions were encouraging.“Thank you, Doctor,” Tim appreciated him and he noticed that his clothes were stained as well.“Consider it as nothing,” he said and walked back to his office to mull over the incident.“Why are they talking about him as if his case was pathetic?” He asked himself.Meanwhile, after he left, they walked back to their seats and sat down. Tim looked at George and advised him, “You can take everyone home. Richard and I can wait.”“Yes. The celebrant may be too exhausted,” Richard added.George breathed in and out and answered, “We will wait. I don't even know the boy's parents.”“How is he?” The old man who just walked in asked them.They looked up and only Tim could find his bearings.“The doctor said he will be fine,” he informed him.The old man understood the hopelessness of his answer and exclaimed, “Huh!”Nevertheless, he sat on a single chair and began to wait like them. Not long after, the General Manager w
In The Evening - At Tim's HouseAfter they left the clinic, they returned home but were exhausted.“Congratulations once again, Samuel. You did well,” the old man praised him and he was elated.“Thank you so much for your compliment, Old man. It wasn't easy at the initial stage.”“You got it. It wasn't easy for everyone. We thought you would be too shy to give your opening remark,” Gerald added.“He picked up courage when he got to the podium,” George explained.“You did well. You need to rest your head for now. Did you get me?”“Yes, Brother-in-law. Thank you for making this day a memorable one,” he appreciated Tim. He smiled, spread his hands apart and Samuel walked into them. They hugged each other tightly for a while before he whispered, “I'm delighted to be part of your happiness.”Afterward, he released him, and they retired to their rooms one after the other. Nevertheless, the old man could not wait to hear from Ella. Therefore, before he pulled off his clothes, he called her.
