Shortly, Capt. Bolton and George walked out of the office and headed to the Tenth floor.At The President's OfficeThe two walked in as though Laura was not there. “Like I said, the painter can start the painting work at once. Tomorrow will be a busy day for us.”“I got it. I will get the Corporal to send his boys,” the General Manager stated and dialed the gatehouse number while George focused on him.“Hello, General,” Cpl Barton greeted enthusiastically.“It's the General Manager, Corporal. Send your boys to meet me here.”“I got it, Boss,” he said and the call ended.For Cpl. Barton's personal reasons, he preferred to answer the call by himself. In a short while, he was at the President's office and greeted accordingly.“Where are your boys?” Capt. Bolton asked.“I will send for them if I know what to do, Captain.”“It is all right. We need all the furniture out. We are starting the refurbishing of the office, now.”“I got it, Boss. I will get some of my boys right away.” “Come a
Mr. Henry Watson, the first registrant, was pleased to be the first person to be accredited and he walked into the makeshift auction ground with aplomb. When the three hundred and thirteen persons who registered before the deadline had taken their seats, they began to wait for the stipulated time. At The Shooting RangeApart from George, the two boys were thrilled to experience the practicals. It was different from what they had in school which no longer interested them because it was monotonous and dull. Not only that, training with professionals and their seniors was a delight.“If only we could take photographs with the Brigadier and the team to show our friends in school? It would have been nice,” Gerald wished but he could not.Apart from not having his phone, no soldier was doing that. Not even George whom they did not know was there for the first time and he behaved himself.After the two hours of training, Tim walked back to the car park and got into his car. They joined him
Without delay, she walked into her bedroom, dressed up, and returned at once.“Go, my dear. Don't hesitate to snatch the microphone from her. It is your responsibility as the President's secretary to anchor the event,” her mother gingered her up and she assented. “I got you, Mom. Bye.”“Bye.”She left home at once and got a cab. In a few minutes, she was at the complex. At The Auxiliary Armory PLC“Ha!” She exclaimed when she saw the uninvited guests running towards her with wet clothes.While the bidding was going on, Tim sent a message to George.(Come let us inspect my office.)(Okay, Boss) he responded and inquired from the Maintenance Manager, “How far have you gone with the painting?”“We are through. The boys concluded it before they left yesterday.”“I see. Thank you for that, Capt. Sawyer.”“You are welcome, Sergeant.”He got up at once and walked up to Tim in the car. He got out quickly and they moved. Not long, they were in the office.“They did a good job,” Tim said afte
At The President's OfficeAfter the installation of the cameras, they watched the staff as they continued with their work. Not long, they were through.“Good job,” George stated.“It is our pleasure, Sir. Don't hesitate to call us if you encounter any issues,” the leader of the team informed them.“It is all right. Thank you, once again,” George appreciated them and looked at Cpl. Simpson.“Kindly send them on their way, Corporal.”“It is all right, General,” he said and walked away with them.“Do you wish to stay to the end of the auction sales?” Tim asked George.“I may not if my attention is not needed.”“Find out. You need to rest after the training.”“I got it. I will check on them.”They locked the office and left. Tim returned to the car while George walked to the auction ground.“How is it going, Capt. Bolton?” He asked after he took his seatThe Captain smiled broadly and responded, “It is going on well. We have sold over five hundred cars.”“That is good to hear. We will lea
Her voice attracted Capt. Bolton and he looked up in its direction. When he saw her disheveled look, he commanded, “Take her out of here immediately.”Since on her accord, she stripped herself of Tim - her glory and covering, anyone can trample on her.“I got it, Captain,” the Corporal agreed and brought out his handcuffs.Nevertheless, the cameramen were diligent in their duties. They captured the scene and before they realized that it was not part of the program and withdrew their cameras, it had been aired and they could not stop it.At that point, she opted to leave on her own. Meanwhile, Stephanie was surprised to see her dressed like that and attributed it to the divorce and miscarriage. At Laura's House Right from the time she left for the complex, her parents were glued to the television and waited eagerly to see her execute their instructions. They were conversant with the distance and the estimated time of her arrival.“Why is she not there yet?” Her father asked anxiousl
A few minutes before 5 PM, Tim awoke from his nap rested, and invigorated. Then, he walked into the bathroom to make water and brush his teeth. He returned to the room afterward and began to dress up for the most treasured training from Samuel.“Where will this training take place and what will he even teach me?” He asked himself in wonderment. When he was set, he walked out of his room to the parlor.“Where is everyone?” He asked when he noticed that the house was quiet.Nevertheless, he walked to the foyer and discovered that they were waiting for him in the garden. He joined them and was pleased with the temporary training ground.“Wow!” He exclaimed and the boys were delighted.Apart from George, no other person knew that the training was specifically for their boss. They thought that they wished to rehearse what they learned from the shooting range.“Good evening, Boss,” everyone, including George, greeted him respectfully and the boys were confused. They looked at his face as
At The Auxiliary Armory PLCGeorge arrived early and met Mabel, the Janitor on duty that week waiting for him. From the look of things, she may accuse Gilbert of vilifying her before the President's Representative as well.“Good morning, Sgt. Young,” she greeted happily.Without opening the door, George scanned her before he responded to her greetings, “Good morning, Janitor. How may I help you?” “I'm on duty here this week,” she explained.Instantly, he resolved that he would not work with her and requested, “That's good to hear. Ask your boss to send Gilbert to me.” Despite her crestfallen face, he never expected her to argue with him. He opened his door and walked in.“What is wrong with this, Gilbert? Why must he send for him?” She asked herself bitterly.They preferred the President's office to any other office in the complex because it had less work. Unlike the General Manager's and the Accountant's offices where most of the activities of the organization take place. They will
Tim ran his hand across his head, laughed happily, and asked himself, “What would I have done without George? Thank you, for being the best.” At Laura's House “Everything is just going south quickly. Our sons are missing. Our daughter is facing a lot at her place of work. What is happening?”Madeline was conversant with his feelings and consoled him, “I know how you feel. I feel the same way too but we have to be alive for each other and solve the problem together.”“Even if they return today, they would have been expelled from the school, as the Commandant threatened.”“Ouch!” She cried out in anguish. Presently, she was weeping and her husband was uncomfortable with it.“Stop crying, my dear. Let me call their numbers again. Who knows, fate will smile on us.”A dry smile flickered across Madeline's face and she looked on while he dialed Gerald's number. They waited afterward until they heard the automated message - The number you dialed is unreachable.“It could be a glitch. Kindl
At The Mining Field Valentine and Fabian returned from Birmingham the previous night after ensuring that Ann had settled down. They were at work when Richard arrived and they welcomed him warmly. After the greetings, he informed Fabian that he would perform at the event and he was excited.“Thank you, Major, for finding me worthy to be at the occasion.”“You are welcome. Kindly give me your stage photograph and name,” he requested and he did.“Thank you, so much for accepting the invitation despite the short notice.”“It is my pleasure, Major. I haven't been to Mount Olive before. How do I find my way?”“The supervisor will bring you. You will arrive incognito so that the youths will not overcrowd the event.”“I got it, Major.”“Good. Kindly share your bill and payment details with me,” Richard requested.Valentine who was smiling happily all the while said, “I'm happy for you, Fabian.”“Thank you, Supervisor,” he said and faced Richard, “I appreciate the gesture, Major. I will do th
The General Manager believed him and said, “The manual is there. You should have read through it.”“I did. But I had a problem along the line.”“I see.”He stood up immediately and appreciated him, “I'm grateful,” he said and returned to the Secretary's office.To avoid exposing himself, he brought out his phone and the manual. Then, he looked at the clerk and requested, “Kindly put me through on how to use the phone.”He smiled and walked to him. He sat beside him and began to teach him. As a good student, he learned faster, and appreciated him afterward, “Thank you for your assistance.”“It is my pleasure,” he responded and returned to his seat.Then, Tim got up, looked at Stephanie, and said in a low tone, “It's remaining one a half day.” She smiled softly and he walked away. Meanwhile, the edited jingle of the ceremony was on air. The posting of news was not as domineering as it was the previous day.At Mount Olive The edited jingle left much to be desired. Instead of including
“Huh!” He exclaimed and laughed euphorically.Tim was infested and laughed as well.“How can I invite them?” He asked him.“Are they not your friends? Let me have the names of the friends you wished to invite.”“It is all right,” he said and gave him the names of eight Dukes and he walked away.He got to his room and contacted the fake Duke and asked him to invite them.“Sir, we have invited them but they declined the invitation,” he answered.Tim was surprised and asked him, “Why? Did they give any reason?”“Not at all. They arrogantly turned the invitation down.”“It is all right,” he said and ended the call.At Lt. Col. Ben Smirnoff's Office He has been as happy as a lark and dancing with all his might since the breaking news.“They are no longer searching for the poster of the scandalous post. Maybe they searched and could not get me," he said to himself and continued dancing. Unfortunately, he had no friends to share his joy with nor did anyone call to rejoice with him. Not bec
Tim walked into George's office and they locked eyes. He noticed that he was sad and inquired, “What's up, Boss?”“I don't know how the boys would cope with a new Commandant,” he sat down and responded.“You just said my mind. You should have advised the Second in Command.”“The Head of State distorted his work after he submitted the list to him.”“Ha! He must have his reasons.”“What could be his reason? That was the man responsible for the scandal against him,” Tim blurted out.George was bewildered and he locked eyes with him. After a while, he spoke, “Maybe he wished to disgrace him by sending him to where he cannot function well.”Tim looked at him for a while before he said, “You may be right. I have not thought of that. But he should not joke with the children's studies.”“Let's watch out.”Tim wanted to speak but the door opened and he halted. George smiled when he saw the visitor. Tim turned and saw the General Manager. He got up at once and greeted him, “Good morning, Maj.
Kay did not want to argue further with him and concurred, “It is good, Your Excellency” “Good. Publish the postings and the take-off date and time at once.”“I will do that, Your Excellency.”“It is all right. You can leave.”“It is all right, Your Excellency,” they appreciated him simultaneously and walked away. At The Second in Command's OfficeThey got to Kay's office and he asked Tim, “What kind of posting is this?”“Huh! Can Ben manage the school?”“It baffles me. I thought he would punish him because of that scandalous post against the school and the government,” Kay stated.“I thought so as well. Does it mean that he is compensating him for working against his government?”Kay walked to his swivel chair and sat down while Tim sat on the visitor's seat and waited for his response.“That is the challenge. He will assume that his act was not discovered.”Tim noticed that he was angry and pacified him, “Don't let it bother you. Just publish the postings.”“Thank you for your conce
At The President's Office Bright and Gilbert have observed that George laughed exceptionally aloud whenever Tim was with him and that day was no different. He walked in after he left the General Manager's office. Nevertheless, George had been curious to hear the outcome of his visit.He looked at his hand and grimaced his face, “What did he give to you?” He asked him anxiously.“I have not checked it,” he answered and sat down.He brought the gift out of the shopping bag and a smile beamed across his face, “It is a handset,” he announced happily.“Wow! What did you do for him to attract this? I mean what attempted deceit did you foil during the Widow and Widowers Empowerment Program?”Tim laughed and narrated the story. George laughed aloud and pointed out, “Oh! They don't value you but wish to enrich themselves through you.”“Just imagine that but he regretted it. Seeing a supposed ghost will disturb him any time he remembers it.”“You are right. Congratulations on your New Year gif
Tim shook his head and asked her, “What is remaining? Just make it five times a week.”“No. I'm not selfish. Four and a half are all right by me.”“Not selfish indeed. If I do, what will I tell your boss is my reason for frequenting his office?”Now, the die was cast and she looked forlorn. They locked eyes for a while and saw the burning desire they had for each other in their eyes. Tim looked away and his eyes fell on her phone.“Your phone is fine,” he complimented her.She smiled happily and said, “Thank you for the compliment. It was my birthday gift.”“Wow! That birthday cake was one in town and now this.”“I was shocked as well. Even the former President's wife had not celebrated her birthday with such size of cake,” she explained.“I see. What is the brand of the phone? Let me take a look.”She innocently gave him her phone and he pretended to be studying it. He kept her busy with compliments while connecting her phone to his. When he was done, he teased her by asking, “Can w
At The Complex Soon, he was in the complex. He got out of the car and Richard drove off at once.Tim walked into the lobby, greeted his men with his head, and walked to the elevator. He pressed the button of the last floor and waited. When it opened, he walked in.The unfriendly-looking security team answered his greetings and let him in. He walked in and greeted Bright and Gilbert accordingly before walking into George's office.He was happy to see him and asked him immediately, “How did it go?”“It went well. They have started planning how to visit the house.”“Huh! So early?”“It baffles me too. Samuel reminded me of the Waitangi Day holiday.”George laughed aloud and Tim was infested.Nevertheless, Major Bolton came around earlier to have a private meeting with George before the Weekly Meeting. He heard them laughing and wondered if another manager was there. He opened the door and walked in and was surprised at their familiarity. “Good morning, Major,” Tim got up from the visit
Likewise, he sent a message to Richard and informed him that they arrived safely. He pleaded for an off on Monday. Afterward, he began to wait for his response.He had been busy since he disembarked and had not gone online. Now that he had settled in his hotel room, he could do that. He was shocked to see their story and pictures trending.He furrowed his forehead and asked himself, “Who is doing this?”Presently, he was panting and sweating despite the January cold. He sat up from the bed and read the details of the story quickly. To his delight, the post was not harmful and his details were not explicit.He tossed his phone aside and breathed in and out before lying back on the bed.“What will she do if she finds out about my past?” He asked himself.“What about her parents and brother? They are too morally upright to accept me as their son-in-law,” he lamented.The fear that he would lose her gripped him at once and he began to cry like a baby. At that point, he could not think of
