She’s a friend indeed,” professor MacPherson said. “I trust Evelyn. I will go and appreciate her for her gesture tomorrow morning,” Charlotte said. “We will go together. She deserves a jackpot,” professor MacPherson said. He stuck his hand into one of his pockets and took out his phone. Charlotte smiled and said, “Then, we need to give her one. How about Evelyn’s troublesome husband?” Professor MacPherson laughed and said, “Troublesome husband indeed. Well, Mason has turned a new leaf.” “Really? Tell me you are joking,” Charlotte said with curiosity. “Excuse me, I need to do something with my phone,” professor MacPherson said. He clutched his mobile phone and searched for the message application. He saw the message app and clicked on it. “I need to get a paper and a pen,” professor MacPherson
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ It was a bright morning. Charlotte was the first to wake up from her sleep. “Thank you Jesus for a brand new day,” Charlotte muttered. She gazed at professor MacPherson who was slugging on the bed. “It’s just 6:01 am,” Charlotte muttered. She wore her pair of slippers and sauntered towards the entryway. “I don’t even see my toothbrush again,” Charlotte muttered when she got to the bathroom. She left the bathroom for the kitchen. “What can I cook? The professor needs to eat something before leaving this house,” Charlotte muttered, and gazed at the foodstuffs inside the kitchen. “I think spaghetti would do it. Come to think of it, the foodstuffs are just the same way I left them; I don’t think Ayla cooked when I was away,” Charlotte muttered. Charlotte kindled the fire and placed a pot on the stove. She poured water inside the pot and heard some footsteps.

I am happy to see my mum once again; I missed her so much,” Ayla said with a smile. “It’s good,” Evelyn said. Ayla handed the toothbrush to Charlotte and said, “Is the food ready?” “Yes; go and set the table,” Charlotte said, and Ayla walked away. “I brought food for professor MacPherson and Ayla only to discover that the good cook is already at home. I think I should take the food back home and consume it,” Evelyn said. Charlotte smiled and said, “You dare not. I will personally eat the food.” “Alright,” Evelyn said. “I think I will go for Evelyn’s food too,” professor MacPherson said with a smile. “After the stress in the kitchen? You must eat my food,” Charlotte said, and everyone laughed. “Yes; you must have missed Charlotte’s food,” Evelyn said, and gaze

He pulled the door and it went open. “Good morning, sir,” Landon said with a smile. “How are you, Landon?” Professor MacPherson said, and entered the sitting room. Landon closed the door and the twosome walked towards the couches. “My distinguished professor, good morning,” Mason said. “And why is everyone smiling this morning?” professor MacPherson said after he had glimpsed Landon, Evelyn and Mason’s faces simultaneously. He sat down and nobody talked. “Why is everyone silent?” professor MacPherson said and broke the silence. Mason, who was sitting close to Evelyn on one of the couches, stood up and moved closer to professor MacPherson. “What’s Mason up to?” professor MacPherson thought. Mason stretched out his left hand and gave professor MacPherson

Come to think of it, how will Alfred be consoled when he hears that Helena has passed away? Well, he is a man and should have the fortitude to bear the loss,” all these thoughts ran through Aubrey’s mind as she drove home. However, after about 13 minutes’ drive, Aubrey parked her car in front of her house. She clutched a small polythene bag and alighted from the vehicle. Aubrey walked slowly towards the entrée. “Open the door; I am back home…,” Aubrey said as she knocked on the door. Ethan could hear Aubrey’s voice clearly, he left the story he was reading and walked towards the entryway. “Welcome, mum,” Ethan said with a smile as soon as he opened the door. He collected the bag Aubrey was clutching and closed the door. “Mum, you look worried; is anything the problem?” Ethan said as the duo walked towards the couches.

We have a few people who render help and one of those people is you,” Mason said. Professor MacPherson smiled and said, “Well, it’s only wickedness that can prevent people from rendering the help they can offer. Discussion closed, you need to get out of this car now.” “If you insist; besides, we are tired already,” Mason said. Mason clutched his briefcase and alighted from the vehicle. Professor MacPherson wound up all the glasses and drove the car away silently. “Professor MacPherson has been a pillar to my family; I pray he will be rewarded for his gestures,” Mason muttered to himself after trailing at the car as it dis

He opened the door and saw Charlotte and Ayla standing in front. “How are you, Landon?” Ayla said. “I am fine. Good evening, Mrs. Charlotte,” Landon said. “Good evening, son; is Mason inside?” Charlotte said. “Yes, ma; please, come in,” Landon said with a gesture. “Alright…,” Charlotte said. Charlotte and Ayla entered and Landon closed the door. The threesome walked towards the couches in the sitting room and saw Mason gazing at the television screen. “You must be engrossed in watching this film that you can’t notice our presence,” Charlotte said. “Oh, my God; Charlotte! Please, sit down”, Mason said with a smile. “Thank you very much,” Charlotte said, and sat down beside Ayla on the couch. “How ar

He walked towards the astronauts and said, “Guys, it’s time to go home…” The astronauts suddenly stopped and gazed at the Lord of the Moon. “We are very prepared to go home now,” Alfred said. The Lord of the Moon smiled and said, “I want to leave you all with some pieces of information. Firstly, ensure that you give protection to Americans and, secondly, do not allow disputes in your midst, because it can cause a lot of harm.” “Alright, great one; we will try to tolerate one another,” Alfred said and bowed his head. “Yes, we will,” the other astronauts said in unison. “In that case, the country’s problem is settled. Alfred!” the Lord of the Moon said. “What do you have for me, great one?” Alfred said. “You are the leader of the team, make sure you coordinate the team,” the Lord of the Moon said. “
