'Simon Walker', can we welcome Simon back home with a round of applause?" He said and the hall burst into a round of applause and cheers. As they cheered, the press clicked their cameras continuously while the reporters present there clacked away busily on the keyboard of their laptops as each of them wanted to be the first to release the news of Simon's return to the public Simon professionally smiled at the clicking cameras. One that he had learned from a very young age to present to the press along with an unreadable facial expression. "Hmn!" Josh began to clear his throat again in an attempt to restore the attention of the press back to himself, it took a few minutes for the desperate clicking of cameras to reduce but when it finally did, Josh smiled. "It is really an honor to have you back Simon, and to have you witness this great

Ben Walker looked up from the meal he was having and smiled with contentment. He couldn't ask for more. His family was complete, his grandson was healed emotionally, back to his senses and now was back to his rightful place. Everything thing was back to the way it used to be. He thought with a smile still plastered on his face as he looked around the table where he and his wife were having dinner with Simon and Asher. He caught his wife's eyes staring at him as she gave him a knowing look that said they shared the same thought before she smiled. They both understood the comfort they got from having their grandson back on track, in fact, it made their dinner taste more delicious than it actually was, and it was all because they had employed that young woman. A woman they had actually employed not because they believed in her ability but because they wanted to help her since she really needed the money.Who would have thought that their good deed was a step in the right direction tow

She walked to a house in particular and looked at its number before looking at the number on the paper again. nodding with affirmation, she walked to the house and rang the bell. She waited a while but no one answered, she frowned and went to ring it again and waited for some time but there was still no response. Just as she began to wonder if they were not at home she saw the door of the house next door open and a woman about her age walked out carrying a totes bag which she hung on her shoulder. "Excuse me!" Sarah called at her as she walked hurriedly towards the other house. "Excuse me," She called again as she approached the woman who had now seen her. The woman looked from her to the direction from which she had come and frowned. "A
In Love Again 30: WHAT HE DOES BEST
Simon wheeled his chair out of the six hours meeting he had been at all morning, the major reason for the meeting was nothing short of him discussing the way forward out of the company's predicament, the emergency means by which they could save the company, and bring it back to its former glory. All the directors had nothing to say in objection to what he had suggested, they looked up to him with absolute trust and agreed with whatever he thought was best. There was nothing much they could have said anyway, they were still very ashamed and embarrassed at their actions. The fact that they had been in the company for more than ten years and did not realize that the company had almost been lost to a cheap fraud was an utter embarrassment and so they all listened humbly.Even if they didn't want to they had no choice, the early morning business news prime topic had been on how a company of that size and with that amount of shareholders could fall victim to that kind of cheap fraud and
In Love Again 31: A CHANGED MAN
Sarah walked into the private living room where she knew Ben would be, as he liked to spend his time there relaxing after a busy day's work. She had planned to just pay a condolence visit to the grave site, spend a few minutes there, and probably stay till the moment of sand pouring before she left but Emily had broken down in tears at the moment of sand pouring and had become so unconsolable that she ended up exhausting herself and passing out, thereby causing a commotion at the grave site. An ambulance was called and because of her own worry for Alvira, she stayed with her at the hospital until her mother finally woke up. Some family members had followed them while the others claimed that they needed to be at the grave site till the end of the burial but even then, they never showed up until she left later that night. "Hey darling," She greeted as she walked in and kissed Ben's cheek. "Hey, how has been your day?" He asked not bothering to look up as she rounded his chair to hav

Alvira woke up early to prepare breakfast for her mother who was still mourning the death of her husband. As she walked into the kitchen, she look around it, sighed, and began to make preparation to prepare breakfast despite not even being sure of what she wanted to make for breakfast.She heard a noise coming from the stairway and was forced to look up to see her mother walking toward her. "Mom?" She called in a surprised and relieved manner.Her mother had been so calm ever since the death of her father, but she stayed in bed longer than she should and would suddenly bust into tears on impulse, a method of grief that was quite different from Alvira's explosive but short one. "Hello darling," Emily said as she walked to the refrigerator and got herself some cold water. "I didn't expect to see you awake already," Alvira said, and Emily nodded as she grabbed a cup and poured herself some water. "I know, but I've been awake for the past two hours," She said and Alvira lifted her bro

Alvira watched her mother with warmth in her eyes, she knew her mother wanted nothing but the best for her, she knew she didn't want to hold her down but wanted to help her fulfill and achieve all of her dreams.She too wanted nothing more than that, but she just couldn't let others trample on her pride on the way to her success. She sighed at her own resolution.She was poor, but her pride was all she had left and she was going to hold on to it with all she's got.She had always been one who was stubborn about her values, that even her parent had always wondered where she got her strong-headedness from."So what now? What are we going to do then?" Emily asked after some time, "How are you to go back to school? I hoped that if you worked with them for a few months, with your character, you should have earned enough money to resume the coming semester. You have to think about it, Alvira." Emily tried to convince her one last time but Alvira hugged her instead. "Don't worry so much mo
In Love Again 34: A FAMILY TRADITION
It was the cool of the evening, Ben and Simon Walker were seated on the balcony on the roof of their mansion having a few snacks together. This act of theirs which was one of the family traditions of spending time together had been abandoned due to Simon's illness. Actually, it was abandoned by just Simon because his grandparents always spent time with each other comfortably. Since his return to the company, the family traditions that had become nonexistent have been slowly restored. Today, seating on the balcony at the highest point of their mansion looking down at the view below as they shared snacks and discussed their various interests with one another, was just one of them. Since they were a business-oriented family, who tend to be very busy, they had created those few family traditions to make sure no one becomes too busy or carried away with work that they abandoned their family.
