Before Magdalene and her baby, Edwin and Alfred left home in the morning, Magdalene told Davies to tidy up the clutter and clean the bathroom. As soon as Davies ate his breakfast, he tidied up the clutter. He started from the sitting room. Next, he tidied the clutter of Edwin’s room before he tidied his own room. He cleaned the bathrooms and toilets with soapy water. The work was too much for Davies, so he felt tired. He was so engrossed in the television when he heard the buzzing sound of the buzzer. He muttered some words before he stood up from the couch. It was then that he realized that he was still tired after the morning engagements. He was so excited about seeing Liam.

When he returned to his room, he glanced through his phone’s screen and saw two missed calls. He became worried when he discovered that Alfred was the caller. He wondered why Alfred would call him in the morning. However, when Gino and Gina came into the room, he borrowed Gino’s phone and gave Alfred two peep calls. Luckily, Alfred called Gino’s number.

Davies took a gaze at the food items. They were majorly what he wanted. He thanked Magdalene.“I hope you have put the food items inside the car’s boot?” Magdalene said gently.“Yes, mum. I finished that some minutes ago. Have you eaten your food?”“No. I will eat my food when I come back. It’s time we went. You shouldn’t be late on your first day at school.”“Before we go, mum, can I tell you something?”“Alright. Be very fast.”“Edwin told me you rarely eat…”“He did?” Magdalene cut in.“Yeah.

You have a retentive memory.” King Rehoboth smiled. “I have decided that we will help Alfred and his son with money, so that the surgery can be carried out on them.”“From an African adage, my king, a man doesn’t gulp down the hand that feeds it.

After she consumed everything, she became bored. She turned on the television and started gazing at the actions displayed on the television screen. It was an episodic film. Magdalene had watched the first and the second episodes of the film. The actions of the film hadn’t reached the climax, so she had hoped to watch the third episode of the film one day.

She told Magdalene that Alfred and Davies had left for home the previous night. Magdalene became more worried. She had returned home and refused to eat. Edwin walked into the sitting room and met Magdalene. Edwin sat beside Magdalene and said, “Mum, you can’t continue like this. You taught me to pray in every situation, but here you are thinking.

LIAM'S BIRTHDAY PARTY
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ The moon was already out. The streets were lighted by the streetlights. The streetlights were used to see in night in California. The lights were charged via the energy from the sun in the day and when the night came, they illuminated everywhere. The lights were so bright that even when a pin fell down, it could easily be picked up. Despite the streetlights, there were still some nooks and crannies in California that experienced darkness because the streetlights couldn’t reach there. King Rehoboth dialogued with the citizens several times. He would tell them that he would create more streetlights for the state. The citizens would leave his palace happily. Yet, King Rehoboth hasn’t been able to create any streetlights. Rehoboth wasn’t a stingy man. He could give anything except his wives. He grew to love his wives.

He wasn’t expecting any other people apart from Magdalene and Alfred, who had left for the hospital in the morning. He gathered a ray of hope that Magdalene and Alfred had returned home. To his greatest surprise, it was Liam. He grimaced, closed the door and they walked in the direction of the settees. Davies asked Liam what he would like to take, but Liam refused.

GINO AND GINA
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies was so eager to go home. He has been away from home for the past seven months. He had called Alfred one fateful morning and told him that he had finished his examination. Alfred had promised to come and pick him up next week. Davies stuck his bag to his back. He clutched his luggage. He greeted Gino and Gina before he left the hostel. Gino and Gina were identical twins, so it was difficult for people to differentiate them. They were international students from China. Actually, they weren’t citizens of China. They were citizens of America by birth. They had relocated with their parents to China in search of greener pastures. Many people never believed that they were Americans because they spoke the Chinese language most of the time. The few people close to them could easily identify them as Americans because of the color of their skin and hair. Davies was very angry when the housemaster introduced Gino and Gina as his roommat
