CHAPTER 27

With the help of the doctors and workers, big tents were set up in the compounds,lots of gaming equipment were brought for the children to have fun with,foods and drinks were placed on big tables including medicines.

Brenda asked Calista to explain what they wanted to do with the children so that they won't be scared,Calista joyfully explained to the children and arranged them in twos.

The children were very happy to learn that they were going to have good foods and clothing and also toys so they listened to Calista and came out in twos,they went towards the doctor and had their bodies checked.

There was no serious case apart from the children sleeping in the room,Brenda asked the doctors to put them in the tent and also asked for lines to be set for them so they could have enough strength.

The old furnitures,beddings and clothings were brought out and burnt,a cleaning agency had already been contacted earlier,they came and started cleaning the whole building while setting up new beds and wardrobes for the children.

Brenda and the children played a lot of games,and she made sure each child picked whatever clothing they wanted,She also promised to get more for them, she also promised them that they were going back to school.Some of the children walked up to Brenda and hugged her with tears on their eyes,the other children seeing the seniors ones hugging Brenda also joined in the hug,they all thanked her and promised to study hard and also help others when they grew up.

The doctors that came to volunteer were shocked because they were seeing this side of Brenda for the first time,she was always stern and serious,they even brought their phones to take pictures but the workers from the foundation just smiled and continued with their works,they had always seen these side of Brenda and Xander so they were used to it.

Brenda asked her assistant to check with the foundation and told her to list out the names of the orphanages under the foundation,it was time they started paying visits,they almost lost the lives of children and they didn't know how many children were in this kind of condition despite the huge money the foundation sent out every month.

The children were entertained with different kinds of games, questions were asked and gifts were given to children who answered correctly.More cars came in and people came down from the cars.

They were the old students and also the former teachers,the children seeing the faces they knew ran to hug their teachers,it was like a re-union for them,the teachers and old students were pulled to join the fun,Brenda excused herself and went to check on her brother.

She knew he was trying hard to control himself just like her,it was hard for them growing up without their parents most especially him because he was taken to the states for his safety when he was a kid and he experienced a lot of hardship,he was actually scared of getting into any relationship not to talk of having kids.

She entered the nursery,there she saw him sitting beside Calista and his head was on Calista's laps,he had a frown on his face even while he was sleeping and Calista was massaging his forehead,Brenda smiled and moves out of the room slowly,she closed the door behind her.

She looked for a piece of paper and biro,she wrote do not disturb and stuck it to the door,then she went to the director's building to check if she could see important documents concerning the money that was been sent.

She needed all the proof she could get to put Damien behind bars.
