The Return of General Williams 2 The Celebration 2
At The General Manager's Office“Hey! You always come when he is not on his seat,” Stephanie announced excitedly when he walked in.“Really?” He asked with a happy demeanor.“Yes. Good morning,” she answered.“Good morning, Secretary. I can wait for him.”“It is all right. Kindly sit down,” she said and ushered him to a seat.“Thank you, for the offer,” he said and sat down.“What of the clerk?” He looked at his empty table and asked.She looked towards the pantry and saw him walking back to his desk.“Are you through?” Stephanie asked him.“Yes, Secretary,” he answered and sat down. He faced Tim and greeted him cheerfully, “Good morning, Sir.”“Good morning, Clerk. How are you?”“I'm fine, Sir. Did you travel?” He asked with concern.Tim was surprised to hear him and answered all the same, “No. I did not. Why did you ask?”“Secretary said you traveled, and I said no, you could be busy.”Stephanie laughed and said, “You have won. He did not travel.”The clerk laughed happily and Tim l

He recalled how he laughed with Ella the day she said that her choice of gift depended on who was giving it to her. Instantly, his mood dropped and he rounded up his dinner.“What if we give her a neutral thing that is generally accepted? Such as a handset?” George asked without noticing his father's mood.The old man got up and they were surprised. They focused on him, and he said, “Good night, everyone.”“We have not concluded, Old man,” Samuel revolted.He smiled dryly and said, “The birthday is not now. Is it?”“No, Old man.”“Good. We can continue tomorrow.”“It is all right. Good night.”“Good night,” everyone said simultaneously and they continued.Tim was pleased with George's suggestion and added, “A handset is good. We can also gift her with a cake.”“Yes. In addition to the handset, we will gift her with a cake that will be decorated beautifully with her picture,” Samuel accepted.“And her name written boldly on it,” Gerald stated.“That is a good one,” George accepted.Now

At Laura's House They were silent throughout their journey back. They got into the house that she likened to a dog house a few minutes ago and sat down. Her anguish increased when she compared it with the houses in the estate.Nevertheless, Pa Dickson wished that it could be a dream and he would soon wake up to reality.“I thought the birthday boy gave him a job? Why is he with the government?” Laura asked after she found her bearings.To her despondency, her parents were lost in their different thoughts that they did not hear her. After a long silence, her father drew a long breath and said, “This is strange. No wonder he has a handset.”“Huh! Is that all you saw? Can't you see that he owns a car and a driver?”“A military car at that,” Laura chipped in.“That is true. I think he is the person in charge. Otherwise, he wouldn't have a driver.”“You are right, Dad. But how did they trace our house? Who directed them?” “It baffles me. If only we knew that birthday celebrant, we woul

After he walked away, Samuel faced Tim and asked, “What about Fabian? Is he not working here again?”“Not at all. He preferred to go into entertainment.”“Ha! That had been his heart's desire.”“Yes. After performing at your birthday, he was spotted by a producer who signed a contract with him.”“Wow! I'm happy for him.”The old man was excited to hear that and appreciated what Samuel did for humanity the more. He tapped his back and said, “You don't know what you did for them. Their unborn generations will benefit from this.”“Yes,” Tim looked at him and said.“I'm glad that I was able to help.”Shortly, Valentine and Pa Suresh arrived. He was so happy to see Samuel whom he hardly recognized. Despite his work clothes, he walked up to him and hugged him.“I'm so happy too, see you, Samuel,” he looked into his eyes and said.“I'm delighted to see you too. I can see that you are adjusting to work?”“Yes. I have adjusted. Thank you once again for saving us from poverty.”“It is good tha

“Oh my God! You proposed that I should shift my birthday from Saturday to Monday. Now you have forgotten.”“Oh, my goodness! Pardon my forgetfulness, Your Majesty. Happy birthday in advance.”“Thank you for your wishes. But promise me that you will be around on Monday.”“A slave has no time of his own and cannot make promises with it. I will be around if my boss permits me.”“Oh! I remember.”“Goodbye for now.”“Bye,” they said simultaneously.He walked into the elevator and sent a message to George.(We can continue the speech writing at home. I'm starving).The message confused George because he could not say why he just arrived and started complaining of hunger. All the same, he replied, (I got it.)At Smirnoff's Office Everything was going smoothly and the preparations for the celebration were on top gear. Although he was not shortlisted for promotion he had his pound of flesh. Throwing the Head of State and the nation into turbulence made his day.“At least he was restless for s

He looked at the directions of the Archbishop and his team of bishops and clergymen. In the same vein, he looked at the Chief Judge and his team and they were smiling.Nevertheless, he continued his speech by enumerating the achievements of the company since the new President took over and the audience was thrilled.“Finally, it may interest you to know that we discovered The Blue Diamond, a rare precious stone in Canterbury…”The audience interrupted him and began to murmur, “Ha!”“Wow!”“The Blue Diamond in Canterbury!”“This is splendid.”“Very impressive.”Afterward, he continued, “That is the icing on the cake. The country has never experienced such in her history and we return all the glory to God.”“Amen,” they chorused.“Finally, with your prayers and support, we promise to do more. The Canterbury Heroes Borough and the Steel Mill will be ready before the half of the coming year. Thank you for listening,” he concluded and carefully avoided the defeat of Gen. Hanklin of South C

The old man was beautifully dressed for the celebration, and people like Ella would not recognize him because he looked younger and healthier.He got up and they walked to the podium while the audience looked on in awe. The Head of State smiled and said, “Welcome to the podium again Mr. Young.”“Thank you, Your Excellency,” he looked into his eyes and said.George furrowed his brow and looked on in wonderment while the Head of State continued, “Canterbury wished to recognize you for a specific deed. In less than a year, the brave son you gave to us has served Canterbury gallantly. Through him, we conquered nations. He administered justice where necessary. We can also say that he shut the mouths of lions, quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword. His youth, which would have been his weakness, was turned to strength. He became powerful in battle and destroyed foreign armies and enemies.”He stopped when the clapping ovation was louder than his Mic. Therefore,

“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

At Mount Olive The next day, the Minister of Information released the jingle and the fake Duke and his men were happy.“This is splendid. They treated our matter so soon,” the fake Duke made clear.“I said it. If you didn't move, they would assume you are not qualified to rule the Dukedom,” Elder Kefas pointed out, and the other elders agreed with him.“The time is short and we need the allocation to start planning. Has it been released?” Another elder asked them.“Not at all. What do we do?” The fake Duke asked the elders.“Huh! I propose that you should visit the headquarters again. Ask the person in charge to hasten things up.”“You are right,” he said and looked at the time, “It is just 10 AM. I can do that today,” the desperate Duke stated.His proposal was suitable and they accepted it at once. Without hesitation, he got ready and left.At the Mining Field Ann was preparing happily and perfecting her cooking skills. That was to Valentine's benefit because he became her judge w

At The Mining Field - January The Christmas celebration had come and gone and the workers felt the impact. Fabian's presence brightened the estate. The farmers were happy to hear that they were secured and working for the government and Valentine's workload had increased. Despite his increased responsibilities, as the school resumption was drawing closer, he was getting worked up.“What will I do?” He asked himself.“What did you say, Supervisor?” Pa Suresh, who was sitting with him, asked.He never knew that he was audible enough to be heard and he cautioned himself, “I was just thinking aloud.”They were yet chatting when Fabian joined them and brought up Ann's departure.“She is supposed to leave on the sixth as her admission letter stated.”“I think she is aware of that,” Pa Suresh acknowledged.“That is on Saturday,” Valentine said and Fabian added, “Yes, Supervisor. Three days from now.”“That is good. Have you informed the Major?”“Ha!” Pa Suresh exclaimed and Fabian asked, “

Although she got to the bus before the other staff members, she was standing and waiting for the others because the drivers were not close by.At that point, the fight she tried to avoid came upon her. Since she was the first to come, she expected that the other staff members would allow her to get on the bus before them, but they were too happy to think of that.“I came before you,” she said and tried to stop the staff who was about to get onto the bus.“And so what?” The staff asked and removed her hand that was blocking him forcefully. She staggered backward and the others held and stopped her from falling.As an aggressive person who must not let go, she regained composure. Without appreciating those who helped her, she got onto the bus and hit the staff who was about to sit down very hard and a fight ensued. Before they could separate them, the staff had beaten her beyond her expectations.“Do you think I am your late husband who you can treat anyhow?” He asked her and sat down.

At Laura's House They expected a better life after appeasing the twins, but the opposite was the case. Due to the silent war, they did not watch the program because they felt that it would not interest them. Laura had been in her room since morning and only came out to prepare a quick meal for herself. Afterward, she returned to her room and kept herself busy with her phone before she slept off.Nevertheless, Madeline was worried when her husband did not return. She looked at the time and it was a few minutes before 7 PM.“Where has gone to?” She murmured bitterly and continued to wait.After a while, she got up from her seat, walked to the bedroom, and returned to the parlor. She could not have her dinner and unknown to her, she slept off on the couch.Laura woke up from her sleep and ate the remainder of her lunch. She overlooked her mother and returned to her room. Shortly afterward, she took her bath and went to sleep.However, Madeline woke up a few minutes after midnight and wa

The other women joined them but those who could not, never bothered despite the prize. The groups danced and it was fun.“Thank you for this,” the host appreciated them, but there was an observation.A middle-aged man was sitting with the widows, and it was strange. The organizers thought it was an error and one of them walked up to him to correct it.“Hello, Old man. You should sit with the widowers and not here,” the official informed him.“Thank you for informing me, but I am not a widower,” he clarified.The organizer furrowed his brow and inquired further, “If you are not a widower, what are you? A widow?”Now, one of the security men thought that he was proving stubborn, joined them and waited for his answer.He smiled mildly and answered, “No, I am not a widow. I'm representing my daughter. Her husband died during the war.”The two were touched and the security man sympathized with him, “We are so sorry for the loss. Why is she not here?”“She had been sick since then and had b

“They will like it if you can assist with the transfer. The university has a campus in Birmingham,” he pleaded as though it was on their behalf and not for his benefit.“Is it possible?” Richard asked him.“Yes, Major. If the President talks to them, they would reconsider her.”“It is all right. Remind me on Monday,” Richard said and shut the door.“Thank you, Major. I …”He stopped when he saw the farmers coming to them with their produce.“We brought the squirrels, Supervisor,” one of them announced and looked at the Major's face.He was happy to know that he liked it. Valentine helped them to arrange them in the trunk. The good thing about their produce is that it is free from fertilizer because they could not afford it.“Thank you,” Valentine appreciated them and shut the trunk.“You are welcome, Supervisor. Thank you for informing him about our predicament.”“It is my pleasure.”“Thank you for the gifts,” Tim and Richard appreciated them at once.“Thank you for accepting them. W

In The Morning Tim, George, and the boys were preparing to go for their shooting training when he got a disturbing call from Richard.“Where are you?” He asked him at once.“I am at the gate, Boss,” he answered him.“I will be with you, shortly,” he said and walked out of his room.He got to George's room and informed him that he wished to visit the mining field. He frowned his face and asked, “On a Saturday? You need your rest.”“I know. Take the boys to the shooting range. I may meet you there,” he instructed him and moved quickly to avoid more questions.“It is all right,” he answered and continued dressing up.Tim got to the garage and drove to the gate. Richard joined him and he moved.“Kindly read the message to my hearing,” he requested and Richard did.After listening to him, he asked him, “When did this happen?”“I don't know.”“Have you not spoken with him?”“No, Boss. I woke up and saw the message and decided to come over at once.”“That is good. I wonder who would have

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
