At Tim's House

He 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.”

    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

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.

    “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.

    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

    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 The Complex Laura got up and walked to the door like a bulldog. The Corporal and warden gave way for her or she would have pounced on them. With that, she increased her offenses, and Jerry cashed in and whipped her legs with the horsewhip."Repeat after me, Miss Dickson. Say I will not disturb the peace of the complex again," he requested while flogging her."I will never disturb .... Hey!" She stopped and shrieked in pain.Jerry continued to flog her, and she continued to cry and repeat after him."Run for your life before I kill you. Silly girl," he shouted at her and she obeyed. George was happy to see her running out of the cell like a little mouse frightened out of the Queen's chair.She continued running towards the reception when Jerry joined George in the car and he turned on his ignition."Good job, Sergeant," he said and drove off.Nevertheless, she got to the lobby, and the new security team was surprised to see her running like a thief."What!

    He would have called Cpl. Simpson, who was on night duty, to release her, but it would not give him the satisfaction he wanted. Shortly after, he stormed out of his room, got the car keys from the hangar, and walked to the garage. His car alerted Collins and Jerry the moment he turned on his ignition. They walked out of the boys quarters and focused on him."We are going to the complex. Hop in if you are ready," he informed them.They were troubled and did not want to keep him longer than necessary. Jerry was on his khaki pants and camouflage shirt. Collins was putting on the same shirts upon knickers and was not comfortable with it."I will change to trousers," he said and walked away.Jerry got into the front seat, looked at George's sad face, and inquired, "I hope there's no problem?""The boss said we should release that wrench in the guard room.""Ha! You can ask the Corporal to release her," he advised him."I would have done that not until I lay my hands on her, and she would r

    He furrowed his brow when he saw her in the kitchen preparing her dinner."Why doesn't she live in a big house and have security guards and a cook like Laura? At least a cook," he thought."Something should be done about it," he concluded.After he left the parlor, George sat on the couch to wait for him. At that point, he got a message from his father. He relaxed and punched on it. A wide smile covered his face while he was reading through it."She will never stay without trouble," he said when he read that Laura was arrested that morning.In the end, he said, "She would soon be working to finance bills that she incurred out of stupidity."At that point, Tim joined him and they walked to the dining table."How was your meeting with the Major General?" "It went well. Empress has grown lean," he pointed out and George was lost."What has Empress got to do with your meeting?" He asked him at once."Oh! I didn't inform you. The meeting was because of them. She fought with her instructor

    To extricate herself, she answered at once, "No, Sir.""Then what happened? Don't keep me here longer than I wish," Dale thundered, and she was fear-stricken. "I apologize, Boss. I agreed with her and watched her walk to her husband. When she was sitting with him in the car, I called Mrs Bentley and showed her the two. She was surprised to see them discussing freely. When she returned, Mrs. Bentley did not bother to verify whether it was true or false."She stopped and looked at Richard who had killing intentions on his face. Tim was relishing the story and hated it when she stopped. He hit his hand on the table angrily and shouted at her, "Then what happened?"Although, they were not familiar with Tim's identity they believed that he was an important person to Dale.Instantly, she continued, "She gave her a knife hand strike. Before she could defend herself, she struck her with her shinbone and they began to fight."They focused on Empress who was still looking down. They compared

    "I hope she is all right," he said and was restless.Before Tim walked to the foyer, he remembered Dale's summons to Richard's wife. He looked at his time and mumbled, "I would like to be there."He walked to his room and before he settled down, he heard a knock on the door."Come in, the door is not locked," he said, and George walked in with his stoic face."What is the matter. You scared the farmers away with your look," he made clear to him.He smiled weakly and asked him, "Did I? Miss Dickson attacked her colleague and injured her."Tim furrowed and dismissed him, "I have a meeting with Dale. We will talk about it when I return.""I got it, Boss," he said and returned to his room.Tim lay on the bed, breathed heavily, and asked himself, "What is wrong with this girl? Sacking her would not favor me otherwise, I would have done that."He thought for a while and resolved, "I know what to do?"Likewise, he rested for a while and got up. At that time, he heard Richard's car and tried

    To Valentine, Tim may sound boastful but Ambrose knew better. "What do you think, Ambrose? Do we employ another person for that?" Richard asked him."No, Major. I can handle it."He faced Tim, smiled, and undertook, "I got it, Boss. We won't let the Third in Command down.""If you say so.""That is good to hear. Let's see the farmers," Richard said and moved.They followed him at once and walked to the farm. Since the incident of Monday, the farmers had not seen Tim and Richard. They stopped work when they saw them and greeted them accordingly."Good afternoon to you all," they responded simultaneously.Tim stepped aside and Richard addressed them, "Thank you all for your patience."Meanwhile, George, the General Manager, and the team arrived and parked beside the clunker. They got out of the car immediately and George tried to walk to the estate."They are at the farm, Major," one of the security guards informed him after the salutations."Thank you for informing me," he said and mo

    At The Complex At lunch, Laura was not back, and Barbara took the initiative. She informed the Corporal of her intentions to be away for lunch and left. She returned at once with her packed food and ate in the cubicle. George and Bright met the General Manager in the elevator and informed him of the arrival of the machines."That is good to hear. I would love to see them. Or what do you think?""I planned to visit there after lunch. We can go together then," he declared.Now, the elevator door opened and they walked out."That is better," the General Manager said and they walked on.Soon, they were at the canteen.

I shouldn't have missed my way," she declared, concealing her motive for visiting the palace.The officer pouted, gave her the statement paper, and said, "Write all you could remember about the incident here."Now, she was conscious of her office and afraid that she might be too late to work.

    She saw herself walking into the palace and was covered with sweat immediately. The officer was calm and watching the television as well. She switched her look from the television to the officer. When she got to the point, she said, 'I'm in the wrong place,' she looked down and pursed her lips to suppress her nervousness.'Ella must have done this. The Duke does not know my house and could not have gotten my address,' she thought.The officer picked up her form and looked at it. Without any signs of anger, she said, "Your workplace on the form is different from what you said in the footage."'Why can't I get it right? Why can't I get what I want?' she asked herself in low spirits."Did you get my question?" The officer asked her when she failed to answer her."I apologize, officer.
