A young man stood up. He is dressed in a green suit, a green hat and a pair of white shoes. He removes his eyeglasses gently and leads the opening prayer. The other staff respond with Amen as the man prays.“In Jesus’ name we’ve prayed,” the man said and sat down. He is sitting in between two beautiful ladies.

THE PLAN
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Silas walked into the sitting room. He is dressed in a Chelsea jersey and white soccer boots. He is clutching a bag with his right hand and a ball with his other hand. He sits on the couch and begins to rest. He had gone out in the afternoon to play football on a field. His team had beaten their opponent and he was very happy. They had fixed another match for this week on Friday. Silas could perceive the odor emanating from his body. He sweated a lot when playing the ball on the field. He fell down several times too, but he never sustained injuries because of the carpet grass. Silas stands up gently and walks in the direction of the bathroom. He takes his bath and moves out of the bathroom, tying a purple towel round his waist. When he gets to the bedroom, he applies lotion and cream on his soft and fresh skin. He removes a shirt and shorts from the wardrobe. He got the wardrobe before he got married, so the wardrobe looks very old.

Good morning.”“You should learn some office etiquette. Now have your seat.”“Thank you, sir,” Rachael said. She sits down, gazing at Silas who is standing behind Malam Yusuf.“Where is the money you took from my room?”“The money?” “Corporal Ben, what’s going on here?”“He asked you a question. Answer him first.”“But I don’t know what he is talking about.”“Really?” “Where did you see the money you gave to Silas to go and buy a car?” The words of corporal Ben dropped on Rachael like a bombshell.
