The Return of General Williams The War 7
The assumption of the manager confused the two guests. They were not aware that he never linked the Head of State's broadcast to them. The derogatory remarks from the public about Kings Land and the Field Marshal were injurious to their reputation and they could not redeem it. Rather, they resigned themselves to their fate.“Let us pray that we leave Canterbury alive,” he whispered.“You just said my mind. They are unknown enemies and we ignorantly crawled into their den,” the minister responded and they focused on the television.Presently, the hunger in their stomach should wait while they watch out for what will befall them.At Laura's HouseShe was in that sad state until the close of business when she got home and hoped to find succor from her parents but what she met was beyond her. It could be likened to one who dined with Satan's big brother.“Welcome back, my dear,” her mother greeted her when she walked into their apartment.“Good evening, Mom. I should have listened to yo

At OreganyBrig. Dale and his colleagues destroyed all the buildings that were connected with Kings Land. Apart from that, they ensured that the oil wells were temporarily shut down. Their embassies and schools were pulled down as well. The number of casualties who were mostly Kings Land citizens was not yet ascertained.While they were busy securing the borders, George and his team members arrived. They teamed up and moved the borders beyond the three cities that they recovered. Things were working in their favor until the unexpected happened. From nowhere, stray bullets hit some Oregany soldiers, George and Jerry who had been following him silently on their arms and legs respectively.“Ouch!” He screamed and held his left arm.Tim was astonished. Before he could comprehend the matter, he heard Jerry shriek in agony and held one of his legs“Ha!” He exclaimed in trepidation and focused on them.“Don't panic. Okay?” He assured them.Nevertheless, they heard more gunshots and one of

“Yes. If they were burnt, we would have seen the corpses of three people on that spot,” another person confirmed.The soldier who wished to take his life calmed down and looked around. He released his rescuer and asked, “Where is he, then?”“We will search for him. He may be fine,” his colleagues said one after the other.Notwithstanding, after the young soldiers left, the two brigadiers were despondent.“How can I return without them?” Brig. Dale cried out.Apart from him, no other person knew that the Third in Command of Canterbury was with them and a big loss to his country. Meanwhile, the reporter informed the Head of State of the latest and they were heartbroken. Immediately, the minister stopped reporting.“Gosh!” The disappointed soldiers exclaimed in anguish and the minister got up.“I will meet them,” he informed the rest even though he did not know what to do when he got there.The others were overburdened and could not stop him but one of them advised him, “Be careful.”He

“What kept you?” He asked with a broad smile that dazed him.Before he could recollect himself, the brigadier walked up to them and stood in open-mouthed wonderment. Seeing George standing there was surprising enough but seeing him safe and sound was completely unexpected. Many questions crowded his mind but he could not ask because they were in public and must hide Tim's identity.“Where are the rest?” Unable to contain his words any longer, he asked all the same.“They are here.”“Is that Brig. Dale?” Tim asked.“Yes. It is me,” he answered and walked in.He turned, faced his orderly, and instructed him, “Inform the brigadier that they are here.”“I got it, Brigadier,” he answered and walked away.George locked eyes with Brig. Dale for a few seconds before he asked him, “How are you?”“I'm good, Brigadier,” he answered soundly.The Brigadier shook his head and met Tim on his seat. He was unaware of the trauma that their few minutes of absence had caused them and asked, “What kept yo

They were still laughing when the Oregany Defense Minister resumed his commentary.“Wow!” The Head of State exclaimed and began to watch while the Second in Command returned to his office.He was watching and working and after two hours, he got a call from Tim. His face beamed and he picked up the call at once.“Hello, Tim,” he greeted him joyously.“Good morning, Your Excellency. I wish to inform you that we are back.”“I'm thrilled to hear that. Welcome back.”“Thank you, Your Excellency. I will come to your office later.”“It is all right. I will be waiting.”At Tim's HouseThe old man was troubled when he realized that the two slept in the office.“He had not had any rest since yesterday,” he murmured after the breakfast.He was more troubled because he did not speak with them. Meanwhile, Samuel was not bothered because he spoke with them. He returned to his room and occupied himself with one thing or the other.“I can call him and find out how they are doing,” the old man told hi

Samuel looked at Tim who was already eating for his opinion but his face was void of expression. He looked back at George and accepted, “That will be fine. At least I can raise my school fees before the end of the holidays.”The two laughed at him and he was amazed.“You don't even know how much you would be paid,” Tim stated and he was shy.They had their breakfast quickly and afterward, George took Samuel to the basement and instructed him, “For your test, write out the names of the raw materials we have here. You are free to ask questions if you are in doubt.”“Okay, Big Brother. I will call you when I'm confused,” he accepted but George who was walking briskly to join Tim disagreed with him.“That is not what I mean. You can ask anyone around,” he said and joined Tim.“I got it, Big Brother.”He stood aside and watched them as they got into the car.“See you later,” he said not knowing whether he was happy.“Later. Take care,” they responded simultaneously.“We need to see the doc

When he arrived, he requested, “Get a plate of soup for me.”“I'm sorry to inform you, Captain. It is finished,” the waiter said to avoid Ella's wrath.George smiled broadly at his good fortune and the Accountant looked around before he asked, “How come? How many people did you serve before it finished?”Their discussion was halted by the President's broadcast and everyone paid attention.(I, Gen. Felix Richmond, the Head of State and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of Canterbury, my Second and Third in Command wish to call the attention of the United Nations to the barbaric art of my fellow Head of State, Field Marshal Brian Foxe - the Head of State of Kings Land. I considered it absurd, barbaric, and repulsive to sneak into my country and attack a young soldier who was going about his duty. This is unacceptable to me and I wish that he should tender apologies to the young soldier in particular and Canterbury as a whole. Thank you for listening.)At that point, the manager

“It is all right. I'm glad that he got what he deserved. A small country has defeated him,” Bright pointed out.“I'm happy that you are seeing it that way. What would you have done if you knew that I was attacked?”George's question took him unawares but he answered based on his emotions, “I would have killed him with my bare hands.”“Ha! Can you kill a Field Marshal with your bare hands?”Bright recalled himself and only laughed. He left afterward and George gave his visit a thought.“What has changed? Cecilia never loved my dad and me but Ella loved him unconditionally while Bright and others love me too.”At The CanteenAfter Ella left the old man, she was encumbered with how to break the news of additional soup for George.“I hope the Supervisor will understand,” she mumbled and got out of the bus.“Welcome back, Ella. There is an emergency,” the supervisor informed her.“Thank you, Supervisor. If I may ask, what is the emergency?”“Sgt. Young wished to give the managers a treat a

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
