"Thank you. I guess you are seeing the interior for the first time.""Yes," he answered me.In my quest to exhibit a character worthy of friends, I decided to follow my instincts by doing those things that our parents did for us as kindergartners. I veered off from the road to my house and headed to the mall. He did not ask questions because he was not familiar with my house. I drove into the mall and parked. He gave me a quizzical look and smiled."Excuse me. I will be back, "I said and got out of the car."It is okay," he said and began to wait for me.Nevertheless, I could feel him watching and admiring me while I was walking to the store. I returned after a few minutes with ice cream and pizza. To my surprise, he was on a call with someone. Not only that, he was angry and could eat the person up if he or she was within his reach. As soon as he saw me, he cut the call on the person.I felt for him because the caller just ruined his day.'It must be his wife,' I thought and waited f
Lindsey was not prepared for the question. Instantly, he experienced some discomfort in his system but had to think of a suitable answer very fast."It was after he left here. You could recall that you called the prince and he said he gave some youths a ride to the market.""Yes, I recalled. He attacked them because I dismissed his claim as a heap of piffle.""You are right, My King."To buttress Lindsey's story, the General informed him that he had arrested the transgressor. Presently, the king was very angry with the Duke and did not want to disturb his weekend with his matter."Thank you for arresting him. I will talk about that on Monday," he informed the General. "I got it, My King," he responded and returned to his office leaving the Duke to his fate.Meanwhile, no member of his family was courageous enough to come for him.Julius' HouseWhen I returned, I did not see my father's car and wondered what happened. All the same, I knocked on the door and waited for their response.
At that point, I remembered that he said that if he saw Julius, he would keep him."Huh!" I cried out and got up."I hope he is not keeping Julius and having lunch hour quickie with him every day."That assumption infuriated me more than anything else. I picked up my car keys and stormed out of my office immediately. Such actions scare my secretary and clerk. They assumed that I was provoked by a staff and would deal mercilessly with him. I got into my car at once, drove to the gate, and stopped."Come with me, CSO," I said not minding the fear on his face."I got it, Mr. Zenith," he said and armed himself with two handguns.He got into the front seat and I drove off. I drove into Wilson's complex as calmly as I could to avoid being stopped. We walked into his office, and I introduced myself to his secretary. She informed him that I was around and he gladly said, "Let him in.""Wait for me," I informed my CSO and he obliged.When he learned that I was around, he concluded that I came
He led us to the car park where his driver and escorts were waiting for him. I do not know much about cars but I perceived that the least car among them could buy three of my dad's luxury cars."That is your driver, Mrs. Reagan. His name is Humphrey," he informed my mother and pointed at a driver who was standing beside a car."I got it, Mr. Macaulay," she responded and the driver opened the door for us.We got in and greeted him happily. Mr. Macaulay got into his car and we left. After twenty minutes, we were in a mansion. It looked familiar, and I recalled that I only saw it on the television and in my Current Affairs textbooks. Macaulay was the the name of the Prime Minister and Henry was his first son. The woman to be cared for was the Prime Minister's mother."Welcome to my humble home," he greeted us when we got out of the car.""Thank you for having us," we responded in unison."Come with me," he said and led us to her mother's chamber.We saw an old woman of about seventy-fiv
I was lost for what to say to him. Refusing his offer may signify that I was still angry with him. I thought for a while before I answered him, "I will revert.""It's okay," he said and ended the call."Maybe we should eat at Johnson's office," I said to myself and called Johnson.Johnson's Office I was disturbed when Reuben got a call and ended our discussion. I could not be jealous since it could be a business call. When he did not call me back quickly, I became worried and many thoughts filled my mind."What could they be discussing? If it is a business call, the caller should have called his GM," I concluded and decided to call him.At that point, I got his call and picked it up immediately."What's up?" I asked him curiously."It is Wilson. He wants us to have lunch together."To say that I was angry was an understatement. Wilson is a randy goat and never had respect for relationships. He only wants to have sex with every gay and discard them."What did you tell him?""I told hi
I walked her to the gate and watched her as she boarded a cab. Afterward, Milo and I began to walk back to the house. I glared at my father's dusty car and ignored it. My mother was up and preparing for the training. Indeed, being busy would help her to heal faster."Good morning, Mom," I greeted her."Good morning, Son. Welcome back.""Thank you, Mom. I hope you slept well.""Yes, I do. How was your work?""Work was fine. I can see you wished to be at the job fair earlier.""Yes. Today is the last day. I wish to ask more questions about my job.""And submit your assignment," I reminded her."You got it. We are also collecting our certificate of participation today.""Oh! That's fine. I would love to be there and take photographs with you.""That would be great. I wish Eugenia would be around as well.""Did you inform her?" "No, I did not.""She may not come.""I will speak with her. She would come if it is convenient for her.""You are right," I agreed with her.She left afterward a
"I had a heavy lunch. Any light food would do," I informed him."I got it, Mr. Zenith," he responded and left.While waiting for him, I kept myself busy with the television. I smiled when I saw a recap of the job fair. Not quite long, my dinner was ready and I began to eat. Having eaten with Johnson for some days, eating alone was difficult for me. My problems that night were many. I was eager to know the cause of the traffic jams from him and the longing to chat with him filled my stomach. Nevertheless, I ate a little and was satisfied. Shortly after, his call came in and I picked it up quickly.Mr. Johnson's House Edna's incessant calls annoyed me and I was ready to put an end to it. I got home and my security guards informed me that she was there to throw tantrums. She could not come to the office because I had never introduced her to the guards."Why didn't you tell her that I was not yet back from my trip?" I asked them."We did, Boss but she would not listen.""She said that he
Johnson's POV Edna's call was a pain in the neck and I wondered why she insisted on getting my attention that day. I planned to settle her and we would go our separate ways amicably. I never promised her marriage therefore, she had nothing to fault me with. To avoid distracting Reuben, I set my phone in silent mode and pretended to be working while admiring him. I was pleased with his stay and wished that it would continue.Westminster Before the General came to the guard room to see the Duke, Celestine had beaten him to his heart's desire leaving him with bruises."What? Did he attack you also?" The General asked them and gave them the right answer. "Yes, General. He almost strangled me," Celestine answered him, and the Duke was astounded at his level of lies."Ha!" The Duke exclaimed in astonishment and the General assumed that he was only pretending.A cockroach can never be innocent among fowls (African Proverb).The guilty-laden Duke could not defend himself and was afraid tha
Instead of answering her, he was forlorn and looking hopeless. When she got tired of waiting for his response, she hissed and walked away."Will the king discover the truth? What will he do to me? I will tell him that I was deceived by the devil to do that," he decided and stared in the space.He was there until lunch and his wife never bothered to invite him. His youngest son, Kingsley, returned from the local school and greeted him, and he mumbled his response. Kingsley joined his mother in her room. After the greetings, he went for his lunch.Despite the Duke's worries, his stomach would not be overlooked. It wobbled due to starvation and he got up. Kingsley was eating when he walked into the parlor and he instructed him, "Get my lunch for me.""The pot is empty," he informed him."Why?" He asked him angrily."Because you are not hungry," his wife, who had been waiting for him, walked in and answered him."What does that ..."He stopped in his tracks when he saw two soldiers walki
