The Return of General Williams 87. Pay Back Time 19
“Talk to us. What is the matter?” Her father persuaded her.“He gave me Tim's number,” she said with a hoarse voice.“Oh, my God! That is mockery,” her mother declared.Her father was weakened by such a degree of callousness, “That is cruel of him. He would have simply declined your request,” he pointed out.Now, the weight of their problem rested heavily on Laura and she began to cry. Although her parents were not crying audibly their hearts were bleeding.“How will I be retained when I did not do well in the test?” She cried out.Her parents were overburdened to pacify her and she cried on. Meanwhile, they cursed Gen. McDonald for being cruel in their hearts without thinking that they were cruel.At Tim's House“Maybe he will give her my contact tomorrow," he stated when he was through with his dinner and did not get her call. He got up and walked to the basement to see what George did.“Wow! He did an excellent job,” he complimented.He looked at the heap of ammunition and said, “

Now, George mistook Hope's moves for an attack and grabbed him by his tie.“What do you think you are trying to do? Beat me up?” He looked into his eyes and asked angrily.“Not as you …”(Gbooa. Gbooa) George hit his face before he could explain. At that point, all the Corporals and other officers were not just confused but scared of George. Collins and Jerry who just arrived, held their breath.Meanwhile, Tim had not shown up and the two were too confused. They thought whether he had gone to park his car in another town or in that same complex.Nevertheless, the General Manager saw the happenings in the security office from his security television and shouted.“What? Sgt. Young?” In a jiffy, he was at the gate. Meanwhile, George had pulled out his gun from his inner pocket and pointed it to his face. Before he could pull the trigger, he heard his name.“Stop, Sergeant,” Capt. Bolton shouted.Collins and Jerry were relieved to hear his voice and prayed that George would obey him and

At The AirportThe other criminals were waiting anxiously while the annoying broadcast was being aired.“I hope these people are not airing this to make us angry?” One of them asked.“But they don't know us or why we are here,” the other person responded.“You have a point.”As though the authority read their minds, they removed the broadcast and announced the arrival of the Head of State of the South Coast for a peace talk with the people of Canterbury. The news was pleasant to most people, and they remarked one after the other.(That is a good move.)(He must be a gentleman.)(Does that mean that he did not have hands in the attack on the Sergeant?)(We accused him wrongly.)The positive remarks had no end, but the people of Savannah were not left out. They shared their negative remarks as well.(Cowards. They chickened out at the last minute.)(They are afraid of a small boy.)The criminals at the airport were not disturbed by the malicious remarks because they believed that it wou

“What led to this again?” They asked one after the other.His wife could not believe that her husband was not cloned.“He was happy with the recommendation. There must be a mix-up,” she concluded and waited for more updates.At The Canterbury Military AcademyThe news of his visit to the Auxiliary Armory PLC did not go down well with the students even though he did not lay hands on George.“So, he wished to kill the young Sergeant?”“It is obvious. Can he go to this extent?”“It baffled me.”Meanwhile, Gerald and Samuel were proud of him but wished to see him.“What do we do? Brother-in-law would not permit us to visit the house,” Samuel pointed out.“You are right. The Commandant and Housemaster will not even release us. They will assume that we are taking things for granted.”“You are right. We can just call George.”“What do we tell him if he picks up the call,” Gerald asked, and he was speechless.At Laura's House.She returned from work sad and sick-looking. Her parents did not ne

“Good morning, Capt. Miles,” he saluted him.He returned the salute and George explained, “I have brought the arms. Kindly get some of your workers to offload them.”“Okay, Sergeant,” he said and followed him to the bus.He beckoned to the security guard at the entrance and ordered, “Get the arms from the bus.”George looked at his face and asked, “Where are the others? He can't do that alone.”“He can. How many arms are there that he could not offload alone?”George did not bother to say much but opened the door for him.“Ha!” The Captain exclaimed when he noticed that the bus was filled with arms and the window blinds concealed everything.George left him in his befuddled state and joined Tim in the front seat.“When did they produce these arms?” He asked himself.He looked at the security guard and instructed him, “Get ten men from the workshop.”“Okay, Captain,” he accepted and ran off.At Tim's HouseThey left the complex afterward and had their breakfast. George walked to the foy

They pushed us out of their way,” he confirmed. Now, the man's wife had joined him and was wawed by what she saw.“The man must be mysterious,” she pointed out.“They are three in the bus.”“Wow!”Tim opened his door and got out of his car. Richard and George did the same thing. Tim walked up to the couple and greeted them, “Good morning to you.”They were mute and looked at them one after the other. They perceived that they were important people when they saw the Major.“Good morning, to you,” Richard greeted them in case they did not hear Tim.“It is afternoon,” the man declared and George looked at his wristwatch, and it was truly afternoon.“It is past 1 PM,” he looked at Tim and declared.“My goodness! How did we get here, Sir?” Tim asked anxiously.“You have been driving for over three hours.”“Three hours? I can't remember.”“Yes. We followed you when you veered off the main road and joined the wrong one.”“This is serious. I can't remember …"“You must have slept off.”“That's

George remembered his discussion with Tim a few days ago (Do you want your stepfather to live or do you believe in a witch?)He also remembered Brig. Dale's teaching is not to extend courtesies to someone who is out to kill him. Instantly, an untold courage surged in him.“You cannot stop me. Let's go, Boss,” he said and walked on.The witch felt slighted and walked briskly to block them.“Stay out of the way, or I shoot you,” Richard barked but she ignored him and blocked them.She raised her wand to hit George but Tim grabbed it and hit it on her head and she staggered backward. “Ha!” She exclaimed and looked into Tim's eyes.At that point, some wandering albatrosses flew to them and Tim held George tighter and assured him, “Don't be scared.”“Can I shoot them?” Richard asked.“No, don't,” Tim advised him.The witch saw them and roared, “What are you doing here? This is my territory?”One of the birds flew to her and before she could defend herself, it flapped its wings on her face

Tim drove off hastily because the day was gone and he wished to take the Old Man to the hospital. “We will call Mr. Robbie and his wife later and thank them, Richard,” Tim informed the Major.“I got it, Boss.”Meanwhile, Mr. Robbie was a Civil Engineer and had been out of work for some months after his company packed up. The company was a leading one in the country but when they could not get contracts, things became difficult, and they folded. He was disturbed when his colleagues were hired by other construction companies and he was left behind.At that point, he attributed his predicaments to spirituality and resolved to seek spiritual help to find a solution. “This is not ordinary, Debbie. I think I have been hexed,” he often told his wife. She would smile and discourage him from that, “That is weird. How can you think of that, Mark?”When the problem lingered, she was forced to believe her husband. She observed that he was getting depressed due to sadness and unfulfillment.“I

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
