At The Christchurch Dome

They got to the Dome afterward and the children were thrilled by the beautiful decoration and the playground. Before that day, their parents were too busy to take them out, and they were happy with such an opportunity. Nevertheless, their parents were happy to know that they were happy. Apart from playing and running around, they familiarized themselves with each other and made new friends.

“I think we can do this once in a while,” the Head of State whispered to his wife.

“Do what if I may ask?” his wife asked him.

“Bring the children together once in a while. Otherwise, they may not know each other.”

“Oh! I'm surprised to know that despite being in the same school.”

“Yes. You know they hide their identities.”

“I got it. It may be twice a year. You got it.”

    Although he did not explain much, his facial expressions were encouraging.“Thank you, Doctor,” Tim appreciated him and he noticed that his clothes were stained as well.“Consider it as nothing,” he said and walked back to his office to mull over the incident.“Why are they talking about him as if his case was pathetic?” He asked himself.Meanwhile, after he left, they walked back to their seats and sat down. Tim looked at George and advised him, “You can take everyone home. Richard and I can wait.”“Yes. The celebrant may be too exhausted,” Richard added.George breathed in and out and answered, “We will wait. I don't even know the boy's parents.”“How is he?” The old man who just walked in asked them.They looked up and only Tim could find his bearings.“The doctor said he will be fine,” he informed him.The old man understood the hopelessness of his answer and exclaimed, “Huh!”Nevertheless, he sat on a single chair and began to wait like them.

    In The Evening - At Tim's HouseAfter they left the clinic, they returned home but were exhausted.“Congratulations once again, Samuel. You did well,” the old man praised him and he was elated.“Thank you so much for your compliment, Old man. It wasn't easy at the initial stage.”“You got it. It wasn't easy for everyone. We thought you would be too shy to give your opening remark,” Gerald added.“He picked up courage when he got to the podium,” George explained.“You did well. You need to rest your head for now. Did you get me?”“Yes, Brother-in-law. Thank you for making this day a memorable one,” he appreciated Tim. He smiled, spread his hands apart and Samuel walked into them.

    “Good morning, Major,” they saluted him accordingly.He responded and cut the salute. He looked at the bus and saw the driver coming out after he had parked his bus properly.“Good morning, Major,” he greeted him respectfully.“Good morning,” he responded and looked at him askance.“The General asked me to give this to you.”Richard stretched his hand and collected it.“Thank you for this,” he appreciated him and faced the inhabitants.“As I was saying, if you have not worked before, you are not disqualified. Did you get me?”“Yes, Major,” they responded loudly.“That is good. If you hear your name, get on the bus. We are taking you to your workplace.”“Okay, Major,” only a few responded while the liars' hearts' sank.Without minding their looks, he started calling out their names, and they got into the bus.

    Reuben understood what he meant and moved immediately. In a jiffy, he was in the lobby and before the elevator. He pressed the button and began to wait. At that point, he felt that the elevator was too slow and was tempted to use the staircase. To his delight, the gates opened earlier than he expected and he got in. He alighted on the tenth floor and searched the faces of the soldiers at the door, but he got no clue as to what awaited him. All the same, he greeted them and walked into the office.Bright saw him and recalled that George said 'I want to compensate a driver.' He smiled softly and asked him, “You intend to see the President, right?”“Yes, Secretary.”“Good. You can go in and see him.”Reuben cleaned the sweat on his forehead and appreciated him, “Thank you, so much, Secretary.”He opened the door, walked in, and scanned George before he greeted him, “Good day, General.”Without much ado, he said, “Take this. It is your compensation for sacrificing your breakfast for work.

    At Laura's HouseShe returned with her disfigured face and her parents were awestruck. She explained how the canteen attendant gave souvenirs to every member of staff and refused to give her.“What do they have with you in that organization? Why won't he give you your own?”“I don't know for him.”“Is that why you fought?” Her mother asked her.“No, Mom. I only asked him of my own and he slapped and pushed me down.”“Ha! Pushed you down? Does he wish to kill you?”“I don't know for him, Dad.”“It is all right. You need to see a doctor,” her mother proposed but she would not want to see Dr. Robinson.“Not at all, Mom. I will be fine.”“It is all right. I maintain that you should be careful. You should have ignored the worthless souvenir.”“It is not worthless, Mom. It is the one for Sgt. Young's little brother. I would have been remembering Samuel with ….”She hardly completed her story before she began to cry and her parents were affected.At RakaiaValentine and the soldiers were int

    The driver wondered what was happening and was troubled as well. He honked at the gate man but he did not lift the bar for him. Rather, he walked to the bus and opened the door.He greeted them and informed Laura, "Miss Dickson, your attention is needed at the security office."Everyone, including the driver, turned and focused on her. She was disturbed and inquired at once, "What for?""Obey before complaining," some loud-mouthed passengers said and angered her.Despite her beautiful dress, urge to get George, and all that she was going through, she looked at one of the speakers angrily.

    "I can hold it for you, Boss," Nathaniel volunteered to hold the gift he bought for George."Never mind," he said and got out of the car.He walked back to the foyer with great expectations. To his chagrin, he was not there. He swallowed hard and walked into the parlor.'He is still angry with me,' he said when he did not see him in the parlor."Take this to George," he ordered Nathaniel who was waiting for him to dismiss him."Okay, Boss," he said and collected the stuff.He walked to George's room while Tim headed to the kitchen.

    "I'm visiting the graveyard, Nathaniel," Tim informed the officer."I got it, Boss," he answered him."What kind of handgun do you have?""The hand cannon, Boss," he faced him and answered."It's okay, Boss," he said."Are you with the cleaning materials?" He asked him."We will hire from the workers," he answered him and drove on.Shortly after, he was at the gate of the cemetery. Meanwhile, Sheldon was confused about what to do about the breakfast. They had hardly eaten their food last night before the arguments that made them abandon it. He felt bad while trashing the food."Don't they like it?" He asked himself.After mulling over the incident, he shrugged and said, "I will prepare the breakfast all the same."Not quite long, George and his team members returned. The training gave him some relief but when he did not see Tim at the foyer, he felt bad. His feelings grew from bad to worse when he did not see his car."This is serious. So, he has gone to see her?"

    At Tim's House After he rebuffed George and covered his duvet over his head, he felt good. He expected that he would knock on the door again but he did not. After waiting for a while, he perceived that he had returned to his room and was disappointed."I have angered him," he said and got up.He was disturbed and asked himself, "What do I do?" He picked up his phone to call him but changed his mind."He won't pick up the call. There is no need," he said to himself and dropped the idea.He turned on the television, just to keep him busy. The war film reminded him of Brig. Witherspoon and the threat from the South Coast. He pouted and picked up Gen. Hanklin's phone."Stupid country. They will learn their lesson the hard way," he said and swiped the phone.He saw a few new messages and tapped the older ones. He smiled when he saw Ambrose's suicide note to him. He was pleased to know that he had not spoken with him after he recovered."He has truly repented and loyal to Canterbury," he

    Nevertheless, she succeeded in pulling her away from her father but she tried to resist her and continued to hit her husband. Suddenly, her husband pushed her and she landed on Laura."Ouch!" She screamed.At that point, Pa Dickson was favored. He got up quickly and descended on his wife. He punched her face several times while she kept shouting. Laura, who was under her, was in pain and shouting as well. "Get up from me, Mom," she shouted but her mother could not.Rather, her husband kept punching her face. When he was satisfied, he let go of her and cursed, "Stupid woman. I will teach a lesson that you will never forget."Laura pushed her mother aside and got up angrily."So, this is your plan? The two of you wished to kill me," she said, walked back to her room, and locked the door.Although Madeline was weak, she would not let her husband off the hook. As he was trying to sit back on the couch, she mustered energy. Like a wounded lion, she leaped up from the floor and swooped su

    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!
