treasuregr8:
“is that how to greet your elders, chinedu?"
I asked retorically,
Trying to divert the discussion to avoid our neighbor's attention.
Though the stomachache in the family of the lizard,
is also in that of the crocodiles,
most of our neighbors were potential gossips.
They so much derived joy in gossiping other's ill,
rather than solving theirs.
Sandra ignored me
and continued yearning over her hunger.
Even though she knew I was indirectly trying to stop them.
“don't you dare me this afternoon, chinedu"
She warned with an accusing finger and a wicked look.
“shut up!, if u are really hungry, why not soak garri...”.
I shouted at her, reducing my voice while pronouncing the last two words.
“..or still, take a gong and go broadcast it at the street, I'm sure you will see people lining up to volunteer foods”.



my family had always been the best thing that had ever happened to me.
Though we lived in abject poverty,
happiness and love was one thing we never lacked.
Laughter was one of the bedrocks of my family.
Father had the habit of making us laugh
and causing happiness whenever there was nothing to eat,
Then chinedu and Sandra would dish it with their co-wives quarrel.
Happiness was like a food to us.
We were just three kids in the family of Mr Kelvin Anderson,
and unike other kids in the double 'v',
we all bore a white name except for that of Chinedu.
He had always asked father why he was the only one who had a native name,
And had always gotten "because you are a special one" as a reply.
The the fact was that chinedu was born when terrorism was at its highest rate,
So he had taken the name which meant 'God protects'.
Something had always bothered father.
I had a felling he was living in fear of what he kept secret,
But whatever it was,
Nothing could forever be hidden under the sun.
They had always looked up to me.
They believed I would be the one
who would save them from that austere plight of life.
Sandra had proved her fastidious hope in me by sacrificing her education for three years
so I could finish mine.
She believed I would get a job Immediately after my education and send her back to school.
I had promised to prove my allegiance.
I would do anything.....anything possible,
to change the status of my family.


************************

Mr yussuf adekunle got down the stairs
to the sitting room.
He adjusted his white buba dress as he
sat on a grey white two-seater sofa
adjacent to the panasonic TC-P60VT60 plazma
television which hung at the top of the wall.
At the right side of the room were latest model of a home theater CD player.
In the room were other varieties of ostentatious goods.
The room looked simple
but enriched with wealth.
One does not need any prophet to tell that the owner of the house was rich.
Mr yussuf adekunle was a retired admiral of the fleet officer
in one of the member states of the north Atlantic treaty organization.
He got the position during the organization's partnership for peace program
during which its troops were deployed abroad for an expeditionary warfare after
the peace program proved abortive.
As the then rare admiral who coordinated
other junior fleets, he was promoted to the rank of admiral of the fleet,
with huge salary running in nine digits,
As a reward for his Impact.
He picked up the TV remote, as he patiently waited for his wife.
He change the TV channel to a popular international media station, ajazera.
“..........was killed in a reckless attack by a terrorist group in the government house of iran..."
"this Iran are never tired of war” he said to himself as he listened to the caster.
"in few hours time, the popular young midshipman of the united states naval academy,
Royco Adebola yussuf, would be receiving
a medal award from the US government
at Dallas paradise, Pittsburgh island by 2:30 pm.
The young midshipman is being commended on his efforts in curbing the high rate
Of illegal bunkering of oil and pipeline vandalism.
Recently, vessels containing stolen crude oil were
Impounded within the country's coastal region..."
The caster broadcasted.
He smiled and glanced at the large picture frame of his son
which stood elegantly against the wall.
That was the only picture in the room.
He choosed to place it there
so as to take glimpse of his pride at intervals.
That was picture of his son in a navy uniform,
with the rank insignia on it.
It reminded him of his youth age in office.
When war and treasure hunts were orders of the day.
When the blood of betrayal flows in human veins.
"gone are those days"
He murmured with a soft smile on his lips.
The memories of the old flowed into his mind.
That was the sign of old age.
When one travels through the lane of one's past,
With either regret or pride.
He's was pride.
He was proud of his past achievements.
He looked at the picture once more,
That was his pride.
His mirror.
To him, there were no differences between him and his son.
Royco was the sheep off the old block.
and now he has continued with the work of his father.
But this time, it was to right his father's wrong.
He glanced at the wristwatch,
"dammit! How time flies"
He could not Imagine why his wife kept him waiting.
"honey hurry up, we are already late”
”just a minute dear”.
His wife answered from upstairs.
”women are always women, it takes them two hours just to dress up, as if they are dressing heaven and earth"
He soliloquyed.
In few minutes time, they left for the airport.

Nice job dear,am enjoying it



Dun say I have come again o ,........lol


There was a place u typed "he 'Soliloquyed' ",.........I guess it was a typo-error,.........should be "he 'soliloquized[b][/b,



2. Dun really know how correct my observation/correction could be because am not all that sure

"He's was pride,.........why not "his was pride" if it can go that way since we can say "hers was pride",...........but seriously to me "his was pride" doesn't even make me feel am correct cause I think 'his was' or 'hers was' can't go in the instance of 'his was 'pride'[b][/b],..............I hope other gurus can shed more light on this,I want to learn too



Keep it coming dear,...........u are great!!!

@Fembleez1: You are right. 'His was pride' is the right sentence to go with.

I luv you all.

A black lexus LX 570 with a dark glass drove into dallas paradise,
Its sparkling silver coloured tires screaching on the tired floor.
It halted as it reached the gate security checkpoint.
"your identity card sir?"
One of the security men dressed in a dark green uniform,
with an AK 47 hung across his chest asked as he
bent a bit over the car.
Killer wind the glass and handed him a white plastic card with a green bolded inscription
"SPECIAL FORCE"
written horizontally at the top.
At the left side was a fifteen centemeter passport photograph with control no:
4285 written in red block underneath.
At the right side was written:
NAME: Ashley Nicolas
RANK: Rare admiral
Served with honor, a member of,
special force.
SERVICE FROM: 1987--1994
then a signature with "Authenticating official"
Underneath.
The security man glanced at the ID, then swiftly at the man in the car,
so as to make sure the face in the passport photograph was same as that in the car.
He was skeptical about the look and attire of the man.
"you're a corp?", he asked.

Killer feigned a smile and nodded.
The security man handed him a tag no 422,
then he threw the ID into a grey basket behind the gate entrance,
nodded, and with his hand, he signaled him
to move on.

"Bloody bast*rds"
Killer muttered as he forcefully drew off the plastic face mask he wore.
The plastic mask was a human face.
It was the face he used in the passport photograph on the ID.
even the signature was falsified.

"Dillish, you know the next move"
He asked rather rhetorically, with a deep voice reminding Dillish she was the next of action.
Dillish who sat beside Akboze at the back seat row kept silent as if she heard nothing.
That was what was expected of her.
Killer did not expect any reply either.
To them, silence and action were the best speaker.
They understood themselves in the world of silence than that of speech.
Perhaps, that was why silencing human beings were their occupation.

Dillish slowly undressed in the car,
Pulling off her black polo, trousers, jackboot e.t.c
She took a black mini-gown which hung on a hanger at the side of the captain seat,
which was at the back seat row.
Killer slowed down and made a T-turn,
The tip of his eyes took a glimpse of dillish's unclad body.
To be continued....

"To them 'silent' and action was the best speaker"

If 'silent' isn't a character in this movie(story),I guess it should be 'silence',I.e

"To them 'silence' and action was the best speaker"


Another thing is the use of 'was' above,......

To me,I think since there is need for 'and'(silence 'and' action) should take 'were' but am not that sure,........For it involves two(2) things and assuming u are narrating(such as this,which mainly uses past tense),I think 'were' to me would make sense.

"To them,silence and action 'were' the best speaker"


Dear,why don't we look it at this end

"To them,silence and action 'is' or('are' if we assume silence and action are 2 different things acting together) the best speaker"

If we are not to get each other confused,I would say "To them,silence and action is the best speaker",.........since it is their mission,what they've and still believed in, and ur use of 'To them' shows they've always believed in actions not words and still they do believe in it,so I will just have u say "To them,silence and action is the best speaker"

Don't see me as a pharisee who often finds fault in others when I haven't attended to mine.

Just checked my English rules of Concord and I learnt that the right verb is 'are' since the singular nouns 'silence' and 'action' are joined together with the conjunction 'and'. But the problem here is that I'm not sure if the verb should be in past tense since I'm already making use of the past tense of verbs in the story.
For the 'silence', I thought as much,
tho I would say it's a typographical error.
The gurus in the house should please
explain more abt the 1st paragraph.
I always appreciate it when I'm being corrected
do not feel reluctant to air your views..
tnx a lot, luv u too.
