COMPANY GILBERT'S PLAN
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Gilbert, a 30-year-old man, was in the room alone. He was flipping through the pages of a photobook and was so engrossed as he did these simultaneously. “Could this Lord of the Moon be real?” he muttered to himself when he got to the tenth page of the Lord-of-the-Moon-Photo-Book. All of a sudden, he spotted a picture on page twelve. “I’m going to visit the Lord of the Moon someday for power. I want to be the most powerful in this kingdom,” he thought. His eyebrows were raised up as if they were parts of his vocal organs. “You haven’t eaten the food I placed on the table?” Sarah said as she sauntered to the sitting room. “Yes, Sarah. I am going through this historical book. I will munch the food when I am done,” Gilbert said, and flipped to the next page. “What do you want to get from this photo book? It contains records of the past…,” Sarah said and sat down on one of the sofas. The sofa was very close to where Gi

A round of applause for them as they come forward,” MC said. “Okay…, the crowd chorused exuberantly. The MC called out the special guests; as they found their way to the high table, the crowd clapped and honored them. “So, we are not special to Louise?” Alfred said. He was sitting among the crowd and close to Gilbert. “We are more special. You know everyone’s name can’t be mentioned,” Gilbert said. “My apologies to some dignitaries, I omitted their names. Permit me to welcome Mr. Alfred and Mr. Gilbert. A round of applause for them as they come forward,” MC said, and the duo
COMPANY BRAVE MEN
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ “King Rehoboth! Come out and address the mob!!” Alfred said. King Rehoboth walked out of the palace with two of his guards. He was in his regalia and holding his staff of office. He stepped on the exalted ground and faced the crowd. “I am deeply sorry for the death of three noble men from this kingdom. From the outset, our country and her States were known to be restful. All of a sudden, we are faced with crises and wars, killings everywhere. We have placated the Lord of the Water to make our land peaceful again, but it has not yielded any positive result. Gilbert is a lion’s heart, but unfortunately, he has passed on. We need a savior!” King Rehoboth addressed the mob. “Yes, we do!!” the crowd said. “Do we still have brave men? We need a company of strong-hearted men, we need the braves to maneuver these eyesores,” King Rehoboth said. “I am Alfred and every

Alfred opened the door and the duo walked into Sarah’s sitting room. “How are you doing, Sarah?” Alfred said. “I am fine. Please, sit down. Mrs. Helena, you look sad; what’s wrong?” Sarah said. “Me?! I am not sad; it’s just a tiring day,” Helena said. “Alright…, but I still doubt it. Mr. Alfred, it’s been a while,” Sarah said. “You can say that again. How are you coping with the kids? Alfred said. “I thank God; we are sustained,” Sarah said. “Good to hear, and where is Liam?” Alfred said. “Liam? He is in his room. Liam! Liam!” Sarah said. “Yes, mum!!” Liam said f
COMPANY ASHES FOR ASHES
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ AT THE GRAVESITE “We thank God today for the lives of these saints sleeping in the Lord; I pray the Lord grant them a good rest,” the Catholic priest, Grayson, said. “Amen!!” the witnesses said. “There is time for everything under the sun. There is time for planting and there is time for harvesting. There is also a time for birthing and a time for dying. I pray we shall sow good seeds with good rewards in Jesus’ name,” priest Grayson said. “Amen!!” the witnesses chorused. “Now, let’s sing the first hymn; my hope is built on nothing more than Jesus’ love and righteousness,” priest Grayson said. However, the witnesses sang the hymn, sang elegy songs and more words of enjoinment and exhortations followed afterwards. “When a man dies, his soul goes up to be judged. I beseech you, brethren, to make Christ the mainstay of your life. God is a never failing kind of Lord. Now, the underta
COMPANY THE ADVENTURE TO THE HALF MOON (THE SET OUT)
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform Everyone walked to a river bank because it was time to set out for the half moon. The birds’ voices were not heard, the leaves were not falling off the trees; so, everywhere remained silent. “It is a privilege we have today to gather beside this river. However, the reason why we are gathered here today is not new to us all, is it?” King Rehoboth said. “No, king Rehoboth,” the crowd said. “Dear Lord of the Water, the custodian of the powers of the water; we seek your help once more. Some lion-hearted men are about to go on an adventure to the half moon; we want you to make them arrive there safely and bring them to the earth safely too. Great Lord of the Water, the archaic one, we wish to see your face once more,” king Rehoboth said, and the Lord of the Water came out from the river after splashes. “Great one!!!” the crowd said with joy. “My lovely people, I have heard your heart’s desires, I have heard your p

❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ The astronauts descended on the celestial body, the moon, with parachutes. The astronauts arrived on the moon in the daytime. “Wow! The moon has soil too,” Sarah said with surprise. “Yeah, but it has a pungent smell and the aroma is similar to wet ash,” Alfred said, and the astronauts sat on the snow-like soil. “I guess we are hungry now?” Sarah said. “Yes, we are,” Brown said. Sarah brought out some dehydrated food and everyone ate. They slept off afterwards. “Hi, everyone! It’s time to wake up,” Alfred said. “Is it day already?” Smith said sleepily. “Do you think we are on planet Earth? We are still in the day here, which is about 168 hours; so, we have long hours to go before the night sets in,” Alfred said. “You mean 168 hours for just a day?” Raphael said, surprised. “Yes, I read that in a documentary,” Alfred said. “I think we have to move

There, he saw Charles in the company of three other light-fingered guys smoking cigarettes. “Charles, I am really disappointed in you,” professor MacPherson said. “I don’t get you, professor; or did you come here to pester me and my guys?” Charles said and grimaced. “Pester is an understatement!” professor MacPherson said with a glare. “You are on our nerves, professor. We have never been rude to you, or do you need us to do that?” Logan said. “Logan, I didn’t come for you. Little brat! Charles, did you actually kill the guy I gave you his picture?” professor MacPherson said. “Picture?” Charles said. “Yes, don’t play pranks with me,” professor MacPherson said. “You have given me a lot of pictures, so, I don’t know the one you are talking about,” Charles said innocently. “Do

PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies was sitting on a couch in the sitting room. It was a hot afternoon. He was sipping a cold wine as he gazed at the television. 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. He closed the door gently when Liam entered. The twosome exchanged pleasantries as they walked in the direction of the sett

❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies was so happy when he received the call in the morning that Magdalene had given birth to a bouncy baby boy. He had gone to take his bath. 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. Alfred never knew who owned the phone number, so Davies quickly introduced himself.“Magdalene has given birth to a bouncy baby boy.” These were Alfred’s words before he cut the call that morning. Davies was sitting under the marquee. It just rained so everywhere looked wet. Davies dialed Gina’s number and waited for Gina to pick up the call. When Gina picked up the call, they exchanged pleasantries. “I am under the marquee we hosted my

Magdalene had gone to the mall on Saturday to buy food items, because Davies would be resuming school today. When Magdalene got home that day, he showed Davies everything he had bought. 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. Please, ensure you eat often because of the baby. I wouldn’t want you to have a miscarriage.”“Miscarriage? Well, yo

HOME CALLING
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ King Rehoboth walked into the inner chamber. Beside him were two guards. He was dressed in his regalia, holding his office staff. As soon as the chiefs saw him, they greeted him. The king replied to them before he sat down. A guard stood on the left and held the king’s office staff while the other guard stood on the right.“I have called you here today because of our last discussion,” King Rehoboth said.“With all humility my king, you mean the discussion about Alfred?” Cooper said, standing up.“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. Alfred has been a backbone to this state. He risked his dear life just to see that others were happy. I think this is the best time we can show our appreciation to him. We mustn’t let him be handica

STRANGE CALLS
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ When Magdalene got home, she changed her clothes and sat down on one of the couches. She had branched to the mall to buy popcorn and groundnuts as soon as she left Edwin’s school. She took out the popcorn and the groundnut from the bag and started consuming them. 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 visited the cassette store two days ago. She had gone to buy an interesting film when she saw the third episode of the film she had been longing to watch. Without any hesitation, she picked up the cassette and paid for it. It cost 15 USD. It was worth it because it was an interesting film. At exactly 9:13 am, Magdalene’s s

❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ It was Sunday evening. Magdalene was sitting inside the sitting room, she was looking sad and inactive because Alfred and Davies hadn’t returned home. Different thoughts were running through her mind. She had left home for Sarah’s house in the morning. She told Sarah about her ordeal. Sarah was so shocked. 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. You don’t have to cause more havoc.”“I couldn’t take it anymore. I have tried Alfred’s and Davies’ phone numbers several times, but they weren’t going through. I hope nothing happens to them,” Magdalene said and couldn’t hold her tears. Edwin couldn’t control himself, he began to cry

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. The major problem King Rehoboth had was financial problems. He did not have enough money to carry out such a project.“The proje

CHRISTMAS
❌ Do not copy or share on any platform ❌ Davies had restrained from negative thoughts that day. He was resting his back on the couch when he heard a knock on the door. 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. Liam told Davies that he wasn’t famished. Davies pleaded with Liam to take cold water and Liam acceded to that wholeheartedly. Davies stood up from the settee and returned, holding a mug. He handed over the mug to Liam. Liam thanked him and emptied the mug before the twinkle of an eye. Davies knew the kind of friend he had. He knew Liam didn’t like to be disturbed when drinking water. So when Liam had finished drinking the water, he said, “Do

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
