The Return of General Williams 2 The Celebration 9
“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

“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

“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,

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

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 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 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

“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

The Return of General Williams 2 The Resumption 1
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
