Preparing initiates for graduation
Sarah after hearing awful massage she was taken by a heavy sleep she dreamt, a dark fat tall woman coming Robin and David were sited with her, the dark woman came and handed papers to her.
"This are my children" Dark woman said.
Sarah looked at her.
"Who are you woman?" Sarah asked.
"My name is Martha, I came to take my boys away" Martha said.
Sarah looked at the papers it was written that the woman was a biological mother of the children.
"I need my children!" Woman shouted.
The police came and took the boys, the boys were very shocked Sarah begged him but in vain.
"Those are my grand children!" Sarah shouted
She woke up from a dip sleep, Maggy and Sandy rushed to see her on bed, Sarah sat.
"Thank goodness!" It was a dream I thought it was real" Sarah said
"You said those are my grand children" what were you dreaming about?" Maggy asked.
Sarah kept quiet for some time without uttering anything.
"Mother, please tell us what was you dreaming about?" Maggy asked.
Sarah kept quiet and looked at her daughter direct at his eyes.
"Maggy, I love the two boys let nothing happened to them" Sarah said boldly.
Sandy and Maggy were surprised to hear what Maggy's mother said and they were confused.
Maggy and Sandy excused themselves and moved outside.
"Did you hear what my mother said?" Maggy asked.
"Yes she said that we should take care of our boys, is it because of the dream?" Sandy asked.
"Or is she have the information regarding the custody of our boys? Maggy asked.
"I don't think so may be because the boy are identical she suspects something" Sandy reiterated
"Can I ask her why she is acting that way or she is sick can we take her to the hospital?" Maggy asked.
"Its too early to to make that decision she is talking sense" Sandy replied.
"Its true let's not rush let's just listened to what she is saying after all the boys are about to graduate and we take them away" Maggy said.
It was getting late Maggy and Sandy went to the kitchen and prepared for for the initiates whilst Sarah sat on her bed holding her chin.
She was asking herself many questions without answers.
The initiates on the other hand assembled outside the homestead they were fully recovered from the wound inflicted initiation knife Joshua and Ezekiel came to teach them more about life skills.
"Most of the world leaders were one time humble like you, what made them who they are is their humility self discipline and also hard working, name any leaders you know, study their biography and you will see that they started humble" Joshua said.
The initiates were amazed about the wisdom of the old man.
"When you are pursuing anything don't let other peoples negative opinion make you lose hope stay focus" Joshua said.
"You have only a week to graduate hope you have learned something or if not you are digesting what I and Ezekiel taught you" Joshua added.
"I have been having wonderful time with you I like how you've behaved you are the future leaders I bless you my children when we meet anywhere say hi to me and my good friend Joshua" Ezekiel said emotionally.
Evening approached the I initiates sat as usual in a semicircular manner Ezekiel and Joshua sat ready to talk to the initiates Ezekiel removed his cigarette and lit using the fire and smoked.
"You are reminding being in the forest in the second world war, preparing to combat Hitler Nazi soldiers, it was very cold the only thing we used to do to warm ourselves was to smoke, when many people smoked in that place it become like a train as the smoke hovered through all over the place" Joshua said.
"Something amazing in soldiering is that you are fully provided by the government nearly everything all drinks and food you don't drink when you are in war" Joshua said
Ezekiel looked at him and smoked the smell of cigarette was smelled all over the place.
"I don't want you to learn to smoke I want you to study hard in schools if you are recruited in army I want you to be one of the general, we have young men in the army who are generals, they earn a lot of money and they are driven by junior soldiers the place he wants to go" Joshua said.
"The most memorable time in my time was guard of honour when the king or Queen of England came, we used to conduct a very attractive guard of honour" Joshua said.
That was the time Robin and David became very attentive to hear, they wondered what is that.
"What is the guard of honour?" Robin asked.
Its a very attractive parade done to a king or a president during the national celebration" Joshua narrated.
"How about that what is exactly transpires in the the parade?" David asked
"The President or during our time the colonial secretary or the king will conduct a very colourful parade where the king will come and inspect the gourd of honour in respect of a specific national holiday" Joshua said.
"Which meant that there was a specific uniform for soldiers to put on in that specific day, there was also to be a military band that play music as you follow the tune of the music" Joshua narrated.
The initiates looked at each other in amazement as Joshua added the firewood into the fire it was a chilly evening but but the fire was big enough to warm the entire area, Ezekiel was done smoking he came and sat beside Joshua.
'I wish I could be in the army the problem is that I had to run in fear of military face of military carrier I wished could not fear and joined the army" Ezekiel said
The initiates laughed at Ezekiel coward action during the military recruitment
