"Oh! Do they see it as a gesture? That is very nice of them,” he responded without expecting any monetary reward.“They are genuinely grateful. If we have your account details, we will forward it to them.”“My account?” He furrowed his brow and asked.“Yes.” To avoid appearing rude and demoralizing them, he supplied his details and they left while he continued with his work.At The Canteen“You can go for your lunch one after the other,” he informed the Corporals when he walked out of his office.“Okay, General,” they accepted, and he moved. As for Gilbert, he would sort himself out. He got to the canteen and sat with the managers. Subsequently, they were served and they began to eat.Unexpectedly, they saw his broadcast. (South Coast and you, coward, Gen. Sabastine Hanklin. I wish to let you know that we owe you no explanation over whom we support or not. Any more side talk about our Head of State or the good people of Canterbury, I Sgt. George Young will single-handedly come for y

He dropped the folder on the table and walked out immediately and met Gilbert sitting on the couch and watching the television. Although he was respectful to him in the past that day, after watching his broadcast, he added fear to his relationship with him. “If you don't see me at the close of work, just bang the door and leave.”“Okay, President.”He got to the door and met the Corporals. He returned their salutes and left. When he got to the lobby, Collins and Jerry got up and followed him.“What's up, George? Who provoked you?” Collins asked him.“That stupid Head of State deserves more than that.”“You are right. This will humble him.” Not long, they were at home.Meanwhile, Laura was through with the cleaning of the Janitorial office. She cleaned her ruined dress too and returned to the lobby.“Where are they,” she asked when she noticed that Collins and Jerry were gone. Nevertheless, she sat down and resigned herself to her fate.At Tim's HouseAt twenty years, George had rem

At Tim's HouseHe got to his room and pondered on many things ranging from Laura's behavior and her plans to drug George.“I think I should remove her from that office but not with dignity,” he resolved and focused on how to help George.“Attic bedroom on self-exile? He must have been frustrated by his wife to take such a decision,” he concluded and began to follow up on the news. Not long, he dozed off and was woken up by a call. He jumped up from the bed and picked up his phone that was on the sideboard.“Gerald,” he muttered and received the call.“Hello, Gerald. How are you doing?”“I'm fine, Brother-in-law. We saw George's broadcast on the internet news.”“Oh! That's good. I hope you did not let your colleagues know that you are close to him?”“Not at all. We acted to be as surprised as they were.”“Better.”“Can we comment on it?”“Why not? But hide your identity.”“I got it. I will inform Samuel and our friends to comment as well. Their Head of State is a nincompoop. Stupid co

At The President's OfficeLaura and Gilbert had been in a staring contest since she walked in. Although the television was on they chose to glare at each other at the slighted opportunity. With the situation of things, she was undecided about whether to continue with her quest for the New President's contact. “This unpredictable human being. I don't know what to do again and he will send me away from the organization,” she mumbled.Notwithstanding, her phone peeped with a message and she jolted from her reverie. Apart from that, Gilbert felt disturbed and eyed her. She brought out her phone which had been in her purse and tapped on the message. Without delay, she began to read it. She hardly got to the middle of the circular before she screamed.“Oh, my God. Why now?”She attracted Gilbert who thought that she was bereaved and he focused on her while she continued to read.“What will I do now?” She mumbled and stared at the wall.At Tim's HouseHer question was not strange to Tim bec

At The Scene They got there and met a lot of people with different missions. The pressmen were more than the rescue team - the fire service department, law enforcement agencies, forensic laboratory, bomb technicians, and investigators. All the same, he unzipped his cross bag and brought out his hand gloves and nose mask. He put them on for safety reasons.“I need any evidence for my investigation,” he informed Richard and walked on. “Okay, Boss.”“Make way for us,” Major Bowen requested while he tried to lead Tim to the burnt trucks.The onlookers adjusted based on respect for him and not the meek-looking Tim. However, their movement left them gobsmacked.“Where are they going?”“I. Wonder. Do they wish to get to the trucks?”“I don't understand. The trucks are burnt.” “Maybe one of the trucks was theirs.”“Oh! It is possible.”Now, they were face to face with the trucks and all eyes were on them, just to see what they were up to. Nevertheless, the trucks were dismembered and the

At Tim's HouseHe returned and met the worried George at the gate. However, he attributed it to the shock of the averted accident and asked, “Are you all right?”George searched him before he answered, “I am fine. Are you?”Tim understood his worry and answered, “As you can see, I am fine. Change your wears and take a rest. We will talk later,”“Okay, Boss.”At Laura's HouseHer parents could feel her happiness when she walked in and inquired at once.“Wow! Has your President resumed?”“Did you mention my reward to him?”“It is not what you think, Mom and Dad. Turn on the television,” she advised them.Her father turned on the television, and they focused on it. At that point, there was another program going on and her bewildered father asked, “What about the program?”“This is not the program I am referring to. That stupid representative of my President was attacked by unknown truck drivers.”“Ha! I hope they killed him?” Her mother asked excitedly.“Not yet, Mom. But I know he will

“I don't know but it won't be difficult to trace. I will check all the forensic science centers in the city.”“That is good to hear. Do that quickly.”“Consider it done, Your Excellency.”Gen. Hanklin was temporary relieved and hopeful.“That disrespectful Sergeant will not see the end of tomorrow. He survived today by sheer luck but tomorrow, I will not miss it,” he hissed and began to harness other plans.He was in that state, when George's second broadcast popped up. This time, he was talking and relishing his cup of tea.Gen. Hanklin stopped in his tracks and watched the video to the end. “What! A Sergeant, not addressing me properly,” he squawked. If eyes could kill, he would have killed George several times.To rub it in, the Head of State of Savannah commiserated with Gen. Richmond and the good people of Canterbury on the unfortunate circumstances.(Attention: Gen. Felix Canterbury. The Head of State of Canterbury. I, Gen. Muncie Tarter and the good people of Savannah, express

“That is good to hear. How will the Aptitude Test look like tomorrow?”“We have the Military Test Developers. They often set the questions and upload them on the website a day to our examination.”“Okay?”“Since this is impromptu, I will only repeat the questions that we have on the website.”“In other words, what you are saying is that they are familiar with the questions. Am I right?”The Manager misinterpreted his reason for asking. He smiled dryly and answered, “Yes, Sgt. Young. But we can inform the test developers to set fresh questions if you don't want us to use the old ones.”“That will take some days and delay the interview.”“You are right. I recommend that we use the previous questions.”“That's good to hear. The exercise is just to test whether they are still interested in the organization and nothing more. Repeating the questions is not bad.”“I thought as much.”“Will it be handwritten?”“Sure. Since they are here. There will be no need for an online test.”“It is all r
