Important Note
@gabrieladifazio“Well, if my country feels threatened by defenseless people, they can take away my nationality because I don't want it.” He said angrily. “No one trained me to attack a bunch of starving, frightened men! Is that what you signed up for? Do you think it makes a difference in this war?” -
@jadams2k18The waiter revealed that this person only drank an extremely rare and expensive wine. John, eager to meet this character, did not mind spending a fortune and ordered the same drink for both himself and the mysterious character. -
@kingsleyyOn the second day of payment, the money at hand got exhausted and we were still having lots of pending withdrawals to attend to. I asked Fireboy to go and pull out the invested funds so we'll use to clear up the pending Withdrawal, and he gave me the story of "we can't pull out the money we invested because it has not matured". He explained very well and I believed him. -
@royaldiademAs I was returning from the library one night, I noticed a lot of people gathered in front of our room, I increased my pace to find out what's going on, then I discovered Flora and Becky were having a big fight and the whole room became a mess. I managed to calm them down and everyone left leaving the three of us alone. After so much persuasion, I went to bed angrily when both of them refused to talk. -
@marynnMrs John went to James's house and informed him how he doesn't want to fight over the piece of land anymore but rather he wants to suggest that they both pull off their hands in the land and give it out to the community as a surprise gift to support this year's festival. James's family agreed to the idea. -
@george-deeI was waiting for a bike when he approached me, we greeted him and he said we were in the same class but I didn't notice him. We talked about some things and as I was about to leave, he asked if he could pass the night at my place because he didn't have anywhere to stay.
It came to me as a shock, I didn't have the time to think and I just said yes. We went home together that night, I helped another lady about two days later and we became three. -
