The Return of General Williams Modern Day Slavery 12
At The Mining FieldsTim decided to work from home. For that, Richard and another soldier went to the complex and picked Valentine up. He was disillusioned with the arrangement and did not believe that the Major had not planned to kill him on the way. If only he was aware that Tim, whom he believed was on his side was more dangerous than Richard, he would have calmed down.“What of the driver?” He asked after a long silence.Richard just realized the impact that Tim's absence had on him and allayed his fears.“He is busy with other things. You will meet the Boss for the payment of your car today.”He cheered up a bit and asked, “So soon? Who is the buyer?”“The company.”“Ha. Does Sgt. Young approve of it?”“Who else would have done that?”“Oh, my God. Does he like me? I mean has he forgiven me?”Richard ignored him and drove on. Nevertheless, Valentine decided to maintain his limit. Shortly, they were at the field.With the lunch, they would work until the close of work.At Tim's Hou

At Tim's HouseHe was discussing with the Second in Command on the Anniversary which will come up a few weeks from then. They agreed that he would visit the orphanage and put a finishing touch to the preparation. “I got you, Your Excellency. There is another development,” he informed him.“Really? Let's hear it please.”“My boy had an encounter with a criminal and ….”The Second in Command was listening attentively and was glad that the story ended in repentance.“His repentance is the best that would happen to him otherwise, he would have been in for it.”“You are right. He is with the miners at the field and happy to do a legitimate job for the first time in his life.”“That is good to hear. We can fish out other criminals through him.”“That is my plan. Meanwhile, he planned to sell his car and donate the money to the orphanage.”“Wow! I hope he is not trying to deceive you with this gesture.”“Well. He will only have himself to blame. I have my eyes on him.”“It is all right,” he

The phone's speaker was not on but Samuel heard enough to know that George was controlling the affairs of the organization with military precision.“I want to be like George when I grow up, Brother-in-law,” he declared confidently and Tim was flabbergasted.“Why did you say that?” He looked into his eyes and asked.“He is intrepid - not afraid of anything.”“I like that. You will be the bravest soldier of your time.”“Thank you, Brother-in-law. I will not let you down.”At that moment, his phone beeped, and he looked at it. He smiled softly when he noticed that it was a message from George. He punched on it immediately and was wowed by the pictures.At The ComplexGeorge did not know that the few seconds of discussion he had with Gen. Awe was a potion of courage - an overdose at that. It had opened a canworm and complicated things for the Field Marshal. He was searching the television channels to see the General's broadcast when the General Manager and the Sales Manager walked in with

Tim was engrossed in watching the lovebirds in the garden. Although he could not hear them he could see the dreamy state of their eyes. He was distraught when the janitor walked in through the slightly ajar door and distracted them.“I am back, Boss,” he announced dutifully and stretched out the acknowledgment copy.Tim searched his countenance for any clues on Mr. Dickson's reaction when he got the letter but got none.“I see. Who did you give the letter?” He asked and collected the copy.“One of the soldiers said he was sleeping and collected it on behalf of his boss.”He quickly looked at the name and signature of the receiver and recognized him as one of the security guards.“It's okay. You can leave,” he said and the janitor paid obeisance and left.Tim looked at the surveillance again and saw the lovebirds laughing happily and was infested. He laughed too and asked himself, “When did they realize that they love each other?”Now, it was time to leave and the old man walked her t

He opened the door for them and they got out one after the other without appreciation. Nevertheless, they were unaware that he was Sgt. Young until that time.“Good afternoon, Sgt. Young,” the Corporal at the door saluted him, and their eyes beamed in excitement.“Good afternoon,” he returned the salute and walked towards the automatic glass door and his officers followed him.To his surprise, the guests were transfixed.“Kindly come in, Field Marshal,” he turned back and pleaded.Whether they were aware that he slapped Sgt. Young or not, it was late. They feigned boldness, smiled weakly, and followed him. He led them into the hotel lobby and offered them seats.They sat down, appreciated him for the first time but could not take their eyes off him.“How can I slap Sgt. Young who ended Gen. Hanklin's career?” He asked with a low tone and looked at Jerry and his men who were standing aside.“I thought he was the Sales Manager. How come he is not reacting?” the minister asked him and go

“I promised Samuel that I would not go out and leave him alone.”“Wow! Where is he?”“He is sleeping in his room. Let him know that I left because you are around.”“It is all right.”At The Head of State's OfficeGerald was in the Secretary's office when Tim arrived and he greeted him like everyone. He answered them and walked on. After he sat down, the Head listened attentively to his story and thereafter, he asked, “Are you saying that they are in Canterbury?”“Yes, Your Excellency. Do you wish to see him?”“Not even my shadow will grant him that honor. Let me get the Second in Command,” he said and dialed his numberHe arrived after a few minutes and was surprised to see Tim. He stood up and saluted him. Likewise, he returned the salute and they sat down.“I'm here, Your Excellency," he faced him and stated.“Yes.

“Did you speak with their Head of State as I said?"“Yes, I did. He is happy to know that we are coming.”“That is good. We are leaving in a couple of minutes. Brigadier Dale is coming with us with five hundred soldiers.”“I got it. I will not like my old man to know where I am going. He may die before the war begins.”“I know. I have planned it out. We will pick up the explosives from the basement and leave for the complex. You will call him later and tell him that we will work all through the night.”“That is a good idea. What about my brothers? Samuel almost cried when he woke up and discovered that you were away. I wonder what will happen if he knows that you will be out of the country.”“I know. They will help us prepare snacks. They will be happy to know that the snacks will sustain us all through the night,” he stated and got up.George got up too and Tim tapped his back and advised him, “Run along. Prepare the old man for our departure.”“I got it.”“Informp0 Jerry. Let him ge

At Kings LandNo one notifies the deaf that a marketplace is on fire. He has eyes to see the chaos and legs to help himself. (African Proverb). It was 7 PM and the Kings Land's Second in Command was in his house with his wife while listening to the broadcast. However, he could not sweep Gen. Awe's threat under the carpet.“Two hours?” He asked himself in trepidation after watching him.By estimation, the Head of State and Defense Minister were supposed to be back or contact him. When he did not hear from them, he decided to call them. When the first call timed out, he showed worries and called again.His call was interrupted by a call from the Third in Command. Before he could pick it up, the Brigade Commander's call interrupted it as well and he had no choice but to answer.“Hello, Brigadier. How may I …?"The brigadier who was scared out of his wits due to the absence of ammunition in the country went straight to the point, “The Head of State is not back. What do we do?”“I calle

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
