Soon, they were at the car park, and Richard got out of the car, but Tim did not. The observant General Manager got out of the car before George and the Accountant. He walked to Richard and saluted him.

While that was going on, Tim honked his horn and left. The General Manager got another confusing epiphany. They waved happily at him like kindergartners whose father just dropped off at the kindergarten. He swallowed hard and saluted Richard before they walked into the hall.

They saw Brig. Dale, the Commandant saluted them warmly.

Tim was happy that the General Manager would not return until lunch and he would have the chance to chat with Stephanie and the clerk. He got to the lobby and saw Jerry.

Will she ever agree that I am innocent?”No matter how strong a man is, he must have a weakness. Gen. Richmond, who was dreaded by his fellow military Head of State, was afraid of a woman.Tim looked at the Second in Command and he pouted. He faced the Head of State and advised him, “She may not be as distraught as you think. Has she called you?”“That is the problem. She ought to have called to inquire why I have not come home for lunch but she has not,” he explained.They were silent for a while their phones continued to beep with remarks. They were so many that they did not know that the people of Savanna, Oregany and the citizens of other countries were retweeting in their defense.“I will go home for lunch. I will face whatever she has in store for me,” he spoke afterward.“That is the

Call me if you need me,” she informed the janitor who was clearing the table.“I got it, Mrs. Richmond.”She got to her room and looked at the ugly post again. She smiled bitterly and said, “I know what to do.”Her phone rang as she was about to drop it.

His initial reaction was to run away from the house. He hung his jacket, picked up his phone, and walked briskly out of the house.He was about to get into the car when she ran out, stopped at the verandah, and called out worriedly, “What's up, Hubby?

    He pouted and responded cheerfully, “I know. At least we are making money by drawing subscribers to our local television.”“That is it. I hope her visitation will be aired?”“Certainly.

Let the two of them rule Canterbury for a day,” he declared with a mischievous smile.Apart from the schools and teachers who were in the classrooms, Canterbury was on partial holiday.

What brought them?” He asked and walked to the door as well.Laura gave way for him to see things for himself and he peeped. When he saw them, he screamed, “My God!

Husbands like you are rare.”He tapped her back and corrected her, “No, Adriana. I am the luckiest man. I can't remember any woman who stood by her husband at such a trying period. You are my jewel.”She looked up and locked eyes with him for some seconds. Finally, she smiled softly and said, “We are lucky to have found each other.”“Yes. I will never let you down.

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.

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.

    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.

    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.

    “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.
