After the Management Meeting that morning, Bright called Stephanie and requested, “I wish to use your bank for a payment. My bank charges so much on withdrawals.”

“My bank does the same thing. They are all the same.”

“I don't think so. Yours is better. Can I have the details?”

“If you insist you will get the same result,” she said and shared her details with him.

“Settled,” he said with a triumphant grin.

Soon, he got a call from the gate that a vendor wished to deliver a phone.

“It is all right,” he said and asked Gilbert to go and receive it.

Before lunch, he had taken care of many things and left for the canteen earlier than usual to settle the issue of the remaining gifts.

“The kitchen staff members should be considered first,” Stephanie pointed out.

“You are right. Otherwise, they won't serve us lunch,” Bright teased.

    Reuben understood what he meant and moved immediately. In a jiffy, he was in the lobby and before the elevator. He pressed the button and began to wait. At that point, he felt that the elevator was too slow and was tempted to use the staircase. To his delight, the gates opened earlier than he expected and he got in. He alighted on the tenth floor and searched the faces of the soldiers at the door, but he got no clue as to what awaited him. All the same, he greeted them and walked into the office.Bright saw him and recalled that George said 'I want to compensate a driver.' He smiled softly and asked him, “You intend to see the President, right?”“Yes, Secretary.”“Good. You can go in and see him.”Reuben cleaned the sweat on his forehead and appreciated him, “Thank you, so much, Secretary.”He opened the door, walked in, and scanned George before he greeted him, “Good day, General.”Without much ado, he said, “Take this. It is your compensation for sacrificing your breakfast for work.

She explained how the canteen attendant gave souvenirs to every member of staff and refused to give her.“What do they have with you in that organization? Why won't he give you your own?”“I don't know for him.”“Is that why you fought?” Her mother asked her.“No, Mom. I only asked him of my own and he slapped and pushed me down.”“Ha! Pushed you down? Does he wish to kill you?”“I don't know for him, Dad.”“It is all right. You need to see a doctor,” her mother proposed but she would not want to see Dr. Robinson.“Not at all, Mom. I will be fine.”“It is all right. I maintain that you should be careful. You should have ignored the worthless souvenir.”“It is not worthless, Mom. It is the one for Sgt. Young's little brother.

    “So, she was pregnant with twins?” He concluded with a heavy heart.While he was brooding over the issue, Gen. Hanklin's phone beeped with a message. He breathed in and out before he looked at it and discovered that the sender was morose. Without hesitation, he read through it.(Hello, Your Excellency. I wish to inform you that life is unbearable for me and the workers. We hardly feed well due to a lack of funds. Above all, the hotel bill has accumulated and the transport company's bill is running. Kindly contact the Third in Command to contact the authority on our behalf.)He shook his head in disapproval and resolved to do something about them.At The Diner TableBefore Tim joined them, they were chatting happily, and Samuel was happy to inform George that he got a credit alert from an organization.“That is good to hear.

    Meanwhile, Tim and Richard had planned to put enmity between Ambrose and the driver. Therefore, they agreed to call the bus driver when they were certain that he would be alone. He walked into the parlor, too, and waited for the team to join him. After he changed into his casual clothes, he joined him in the parlor.“I think he has left the hotel, Boss.”“You are right. You can call him,” Tim approved and sat down.He dialed his number immediately while Tim waited for it to connect. After the second ring, the driver picked up the call.“Hello, Maj. Richard.

They lay him on the double seat and pulled off his shoes.“Get into the bus.

    Without waiting for their responses, he walked on to Laura, who was still cursing and threatening Dr. Robinson and informed her, “Capt. Bolton wants you out of the complex immediately.”“Why? When did he say that?”“I will not hesitate to rough handle you like a criminal if you don't compromise.”“Did you hear that?” Jerry faced her, inquired and she mellowed down.“Move,” the Corporal shouted.She picked up her purse while Barbara giggled and watched her being led out.“Why is she like this?” She mumbled and went back to work.At The GateIndeed, the public had cooked for Laura, and no one knew whether she could finish it.

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.

    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.

    “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?

    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.

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.

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
