With Jerry's approval, Barbara did not bother to question his movement. Likewise, Laura was occupied with the thought of how to defend herself in court since no lawyer agreed to stand for her. Therefore, she did not notice him. Even if she did, she would not have recognized him.

At The Gatehouse

Cpl. Simpson was aware that George and the other managers would be having their weekly meeting and dared not disturb him. Apart from the meeting, the Captain's request was absurd and unworthy of his attention.

“Kindly take your seat, Captain,” he informed him.

Without a response, he sat on the three-seater stainless chair and crossed his legs. Now, the time was a few minutes to 10 AM. To fulfill all righteousness, he dialed the General Manager's landline.

“Hello, Corporal. How may I help you?” The clerk asked him.

“Hello, Clerk. I wish to speak with the boss,” he said to the hearing of the Captain.

“He is out for his weekly meeting.”

“I see. Thank you for informing me,” he said and cut the cal

    He understood the look and got up. Shortly, he returned with a cup of tea and Tim appreciated them. He began to sip the tea and was attracted to the television. The news of the resumption of the schools in Canterbury, especially the Defense Academy, was going on, and he was attracted to it. To his delight, he saw the queue at the gate but only the luxury cars were displayed, so he was not bothered about any form of publicity. He laughed silently and lifted his cup of tea. He was sipping it when he saw the clip of the affectionate moment with him and the boys and he was awestruck. Likewise, he used the tea cup to cover his surprise and pretended not to be interested in the news. “Who recorded this?” He asked himself. Nevertheless, he looked at Stephanie and noticed she was not watching the news. He put his teacup down and focused on the news. He saw the other schools and laughed at a family whose child ran back to the car to avoid going to school. “What if their parents see us?” He

    Tim walked briskly to catch up with the GM who was close to the door. "He did not respect him like a Major," he said to himself. They walked to the gate and met the Captain waiting for them. Now, there was a mix-up. He never envisaged the accident. His primary reason for following Tim was to know his boss and butter him up so that his son would be favored by the Head of State. To him, the General Manager was his supposed boss but could not be the father of the two boys."Good day, Captain," he got up and greeted him without a hand salute since they were of the same rank.At that point, he had scanned him and made his reservations. "Good day, Captain. Did you say that my driver damaged your car?" He asked him.At that point, all eyes were on him and they waited silently for his answer. He looked at Tim's face and looked away immediately when he saw that he was staring daggers at him."Did you get my question, Captain?" Capt Bolton asked when he noticed that he was speechless.The Ca

    The guard was unaware of what transpired at the inner gate and suggested, “I propose that you go back to the gate and request to speak with the President.”“Or the General Manager,” another guard chipped in.The smile on his face disappeared immediately. Seeing the President was out of his ideas especially when the Major had said that he could be an accomplice of Gen. Hanklin. Besides, he just left the General Manager.He concluded that the young soldiers wished to harsh his mellow and forwent his car.“Have a nice day,” he simply said and walked away.The first guard pouted while their leader giggled as they watched him walk away in despondency.“What did he come to the complex to do in the first place?” A soldier asked his colleagues.“Who knows?”On the Road“I suggest that we visit Ambrose, Boss. It is unclear to me why his recovery is slow,” Richard proposed.“It is all right. How was he the last time you visited him?”“There was no remarkable improvement. He was just there.”“I

    “Let us give him one additional week. If there is no improvement, he is free to take him back instead of allowing him to die here.”“That is my point.”“After all, he has done a lot for him.”“I'm glad that you are seeing it that way.”“It is okay. Let's see him.” Dr. Robinson got up and Tim did the same thing.Back To The Ward“It is okay,” Richard said, sat down on the bed, and began to interrogate Michael. “Do you think he is still happy with Canterbury?” Michael was startled to hear that and answered honestly, “Certainly, Major.”“I don't think so. It was the hatred for us that led him into this. Am I right?”“Not at all, Major. He incurred a lot of debt because our Head of State was not responding to his emails.”“We are saying the same thing. He wished to take his life and put the blame on us because he hated us.”His point was succinct and he could not argue further. Notwithstanding, Richard wished to ensure that he freed his country from a negative reputation before them an

    Richard took them to the Dome where the contractors were waiting for them. Indeed, Samuel's birthday changed their destinies. They only saw the Dome on television before the war. Thereafter, they had no television or the means of seeing it.“Wow!” They exclaimed when they got out of the car.“Do you like the place?” Richard asked them.“Yes, Major,” they responded with glee.They met the contractors and read the terms and conditions of the contract and the two soldiers interpreted it to them where there was ambiguity. At last, one person declined and only Fabian and one person signed the contract.“What is your name?” Richard asked the one who declined after he drove off.“My name is Tyler, Major.”“That is good. Why did you decline the contract?”“From the conditions, I won't have my privacy. My movement will be restricted. I don't like such a lifestyle,” he answered.“That is a wise decision. Fabian and co, do you understand that your privacy will be tampered with as a celebrity?”“

    “Point of correction, I am Miss Dickson,” she explained arrogantly.“I see,” he swallowed hard and responded.“Meanwhile, why are you pretending to care about me after releasing the video of my abortion to the public? That shows how unprofessional you are. Are you aware that I can sue you for that?”“It is not what you think. We can talk about it.”“You can keep that to yourself because that is not why I am here. I want the report of the abortion. Period.”“Ha! What do you need it for? I think you should apologize to your husband and come back together.”“I said it. You are unprofessional and too old to articulate the happenings around you. How can a dead man come back with his ex-wife?”To avoid complicating things more, he dropped the discussion and acquiesced to her opinion, “I got it. Kindly wait for your report at the reception. It will be ready in a couple of minutes.”She pushed her lips up and walked out angrily.“Ha! Tim must have lived in bondage while living with her,” he c

    A few kilometers away from the hospital, the ambulance screeched and stopped suddenly and the impact almost threw Ambrose off the bed. Tim was affected, too, too, but he was more interested in saving the patient. “Oh!” He screamed and supported him with his two hands.He tried to ensure that he did not fall by pushing him slightly back to the bed. In his haste, many things happened at the same time. His cross bag had hit him severally but he was not bothered.Meanwhile, Ambrose was startled and tried to support himself. He grabbed his bag and Tim was scared. He observed him and noticed that his eyes were open.“Driver, be patient with me and I will pay everything I owe you before the week runs out,” he rambled.“Who are you talking to, Ambrose?” Tim asked him and he was shocked to hear his voice.He looked intently at Tim, but instead of looking back, he knocked on the window to alert the driver, who was trying to restart the vehicle.As an Emergency Medical Technician, he had heard

    Meanwhile, Ambrose had sat up and was waiting for the medical gadgets to be removed. The driver looked into his wet eyes and wondered why he was not happy. Instantly, he pulled out the gadgets and adjusted his hospital clothes.“Kindly send for the stretcher,” Dr. Robinson requested and Dr. Edward obeyed.“Ask the mortician to get ready, please,” he faced Dr. Raphael and pleaded.Ambrose got out of the ambulance and Tim led the way. To say that the doctors and Michael were befuddled was an understatement. The driver tried to support him since Tim and Richard were unwilling to do so but he declined.“Don't bother yourself, Sir. I will be fine,” he said and walked on.At that moment, the doctors were back to the verandah, and they saw them.“What happened?” They asked in astonishment.Michael, who bent his head and was weeping, looked up and saw them. He was scared and ran into the reception and stopped when the doctors did not run.The open-mouthed Dr. Robinson looked at the driver and

    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.

    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? 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
