The Return of General Williams The Christmas 2
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. We appreciate it,” he said.“Thank you for accepting us.”“I hope no one is molesting?” Valentine asked.“No, Supervisor. We appreciate you for your presence.”“You are welcome,” Valentine said and they walked away.He turned and looked at Pa Suresh, who was smiling beside him, and asked, “What do we do with the gray squirrels? I have not eaten it for a long time?”Before he could speak, Tyler and his friends walked

In The Morning Tim, George, and the boys were preparing to go for their shooting training when he got a disturbing call from Richard.“Where are you?” He asked him at once.“I am at the gate, Boss,” he answered him.“I will be with you, shortly,” he said and walked out of his room.He got to George's room and informed him that he wished to visit the mining field. He frowned his face and asked, “On a Saturday? You need your rest.”“I know. Take the boys to the shooting range. I may meet you there,” he instructed him and moved quickly to avoid more questions.“It is all right,” he answered and continued dressing up.Tim got to the garage and drove to the gate. Richard joined him and he moved.“Kindly read the message to my hearing,” he requested and Richard did.After listening to him, he asked him, “When did this happen?”“I don't know.”“Have you not spoken with him?”“No, Boss. I woke up and saw the message and decided to come over at once.”“That is good. I wonder who would have

“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. If the President talks to them, they would reconsider her.”“It is all right. Remind me on Monday,” Richard said and shut the door.“Thank you, Major. I …”He stopped when he saw the farmers coming to them with their produce.“We brought the squirrels, Supervisor,” one of them announced and looked at the Major's face.He was happy to know that he liked it. Valentine helped them to arrange them in the trunk. The good thing about their produce is that it is free from fertilizer because they could not afford it.“Thank you,” Valentine appreciated them and shut the trunk.“You are welcome, Supervisor. Thank you for informing him about our predicament.”“It is my pleasure.”“Thank you for the gifts,” Tim and Richard appreciated them at once.“Thank you for accepting them. W

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

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.

At The Mining Field - January The Christmas celebration had come and gone and the workers felt the impact. Fabian's presence brightened the estate. The farmers were happy to hear that they were secured and working for the government and Valentine's workload had increased. 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, “

At Mount Olive The next day, the Minister of Information released the jingle and the fake Duke and his men were happy.“This is splendid. 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. I can do that today,” the desperate Duke stated.His proposal was suitable and they accepted it at once. Without hesitation, he got ready and left.At the Mining Field Ann was preparing happily and perfecting her cooking skills. That was to Valentine's benefit because he became her judge w

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
