“I heard him yelling just a couple of minutes ago and suddenly his voice went still. There was no sign of him again.”Officer Jamie knew that Olaf meant a lot to his colleague - they were close friends and he knew that there was no way that he was going to be happy knowing that Olaf was dead.But he had to still encourage the officer. If they were going to get out of the van compartment which with each moment started becoming increasingly true that they were being trapped, they had to get rid of all of their anxieties.“Come on, that’s no sign that he is dead,” Officer Jamie encouraged. “What if he found a safe place to hide instead and is hoping that we could come up with something.”“In any case, if you are not so much of a fan of the first idea, we could use the smoke grenade to create a dense cloud of cover. That would make it much harder for them to hit us.”The officer’s eyes brightened at Officer Jamie’s second idea. “Yesh, I think that’s a good idea.”Officer Jamie continued.

As if Jamie didn't already know that he had been compromised. They were already getting closer and even falling back was going to be very difficult.Officer Jamie spoke back into his radio transmitter. “I’m trapped Nath, I can't get out. The shooters are closing in.”“Just hold your position. Don't allow them to compromise our operation. Just keep your head low.”Jamie just couldn't help but wonder how exactly he was going to do that. How could he possibly leave there without getting his position compromised?Officer Jamie spoke back into the radio, his voice still filled with intense worry. “Are you coming out here or what? How many of us are still alive?”“Just stay calm and don't compromise your position, Jamie.”“I am doing my best, Nath. But I am taking heavy gunfire out here. I don't know how long I can hold out.”“I get you. There are just three left, maybe four I think. But you are our last line of defense against this threat. If you fall, we all fall. You have to stay focused

“I am sorry sir,” The attendant, a young man in his 20s responded. “It’s just that we don’t have any more beverages.”“What’s going on here?” The man scoffed. “What do you mean by that? I suggest you check well. I am not leaving here without my beverages.”The attendant, even though he was quite sure that there was no longer any beverage left went ahead to check if he would find some beverage. He fumbled the cart of products as if he were going to find some beverage. He did that just to let the man believe that he had tried his best to find the beverage and it wasn’t like he wasn’t serious about helping him find the beverages.The attendant soon returned to tell the man the situation. “Sir, I have checked. I had to pull down a lot of things to make sure that I find even if it is just one but we are out of stock like I said earlier.”“Nah! You can’t tell me that. I was planning on buying three dozen,” the man insisted.The attendant’s hands grasped in a frantic struggle of confusion a

The man’s nostrils flared with a dangerous flare of fury as his fists clenched with a dangerous grip of fury. “You insolent little punk! You are lucky I don’t—”The other customers in the hall edged towards the exit, their apprehension and disgust a potent force as they escaped the scene of the violence.Alan who was watching from a distance this time shook his head at how everyone, instead of helping the little boy who was being bullied, left the store like cowards.Couldn’t no one develop the guts to speak up against the injustice that was being done against the boy? Didn’t no one have the courage or was no one seeing what was going on with the boy?The customers had seen enough and were leaving with exhaustion.“I think we should leave. This is getting out of hand.”“I agree. I don’t want to be caught in the middle of this.”“I mean, this is just too much drama for me. Now he’s screaming at the little boy. He must be sick in the head.”“Yeah, I believe that he definitely needs medi

He knew that it was Rose’s dying wish for Brody to be protected and if it meant something tangible to Rose, it had to mean something even more tangible to him as well.His determination was a palpable force as he realized that he had to face Mr. Lawrence once and for all.His attention drifted back to reality when he heard something on the television.He picked up his remote control to increase the volume.“Felix Lincoln has won the governorship election with a landslide victory. The official results show that Lino received an overwhelming majority of the votes, surpassing his opponents Mayor Carney Boltman and Prince Maxine by a significant margin.”Alan was overjoyed with the information as he leaped from the ground with excitement. “Yes!”“Yes! Best time to see how Carney would feel about this. It’s not like he stood a chance anyway.”“Yes!”Alan was excited because he knew that it was as a result of his plan with Elaine that Mayor Carney lost the election.If not for the way he ha
