Twist Of Fate: Three Little Miracles

Mark was few kilometers away from his abode in the base when bus phone chirped again with a message…. It read “Ex-communicando will be at Sterling City military base in 10 minutes time”

At that moment a car zoomed to a halt in front of him. It was Richarlison, he had already dropped Diana and her kids off.

“Sir!” He greeted…

“Ex-communicando will be here ten minutes time. Prepare a grand spectacle and sound the alarm…” Mark ordered Richarlison who nodded in response. Mark was trying so hard to handle the fact his biological mum had actually returned. However, he voice were devoid of any emotions.

Sooner, an alarm erupted. It was not a signal of an impromptu war but rather, that of the fact that an ex-communicando was returning…

Everyone knew of the legendary story of the ex-communicando….

“Ex-communicando is back!” A top officer shouted into a micro phone at the central field of the military base. At once, every military officer in the base, those that were training , those that were eating, sleeping and even those in the toilet or bathroom, or or doing whatever at all, immediately aborted whatever they were doing and began to speed towards the central field.

Hannah, who had just returned from outside the military base alongside his twin bodyguard who practiced latent force technique also heard of the chaos and also rushed to the central field, but they had they had a distinctive spot to occupy unlike the military officers who stood in a special ranking order..

Every military officer were happy about the news. Some of them had idolized the ex-communicando and wished to become like or more like him. The ex-communicando had rewritten history and created a very legacy and a name so respected by all.

The military officer were all lined up in according to their ranks.

All of them awaits one man. They all stood attentive to welcome just one man.

Hannah wondered who it was. She was standing with the president general and his twin bodyguard behind. Richarlison too was behind.

Diana had also speedily rushed to the central field to join the millions of soldiers.

Soon after, Owens arrived the military base with his entourage and National guards …

Owens took a pill into his system before stepping out into the large podium and address the crowd all waiting for him. He swept his gaze all through the crowd down to his grandson. Mark, beside him was an elegant well shaped lady standing. “It must be here…..” He thought.

He was now decked out with fur coat that rustled in the cold wind. His expression was bland, but it still instilled fear in others, nonetheless.

He exuded an aura like that of a monarch overlooking the world, which made people hold their breaths. The thousands of soldiers shifted their gaze to him uniformly, their eyes brimming with admiration.

He was a living legend. The Ares of the military. The ex-communicando.

The central field was so quiet like a graveyard such that if one dropped a pin on the floor, it’s sound that probably would be generated would be perfectly heard.

Although everyone anticipated to see this one man, their hearts was beating so heavily. The atmosphere fell more into a deep silence and no one dared shake or move his or her body nor say a word or rather make a statement.

“Welcome! Ex-communicando!” The seven grandwar masters standing at an attention at the left side of the podium shouted in unison into a microphone that magnified the intensity of their strident voice, in addition they raised their left legs and marched it into the ground with a very strong force that it sounded like thunder. The sound of their boots and the ground sound and shaked like an earthquake was erupting.

“I, Ex-communicando is back to my homeland.” Owens said into the microphone on the large podium. Everyone watched in fear. There was a drop dead silence and people were even scared to breath. ‘I am here to celebrate the president Generals loading marriage and also elect the new ex-communicando as I’d be retiring very soon!” Owens added.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“So, brace up and start grinding. Who knows you may emerge the new ex-communicando!. Keep grinding” he concluded sweeping his gaze around the crowd.

“Yes sir! Yes sir!” The voice of the soldiers that answered in unison sounded like thunder.

Afterwards Owens stepped down from the podium through the front step and stood before the seven grand war masters. Their hearts started to big faster and slam the walls of their chest as they thought he had something to say to them.

To their relief, he left them and went to stand before the wolves battalion, comprising over a hundred soldiers, they all shivered and it was if they were suddenly put in a refrigerator.

Later on, he left and went to stood before the president general, with a step he was in front of Hannah. “She is beautiful!” He thought but this lady didn’t really look like the lady Charity Wakins always described to him. He didn’t dwell on that, afterall people changed. Hannah stood rooted in the spot wit a palpitating heart ‘Does he have any suspicion already? Jake said ex-communicando never met the lady Mark was betrothed to!. Why is he staring at this way? She didn’t want a situation where she is caught. Dreadful men like the ex-communicando wouldn’t hesitate to execute her.

Her legs became jelly, as if she was about to fall to the ground when he said

“You’re welcome to our family, Charity Wakins! You look like her in a way, but I thought the resemblance would be more striking!”

Hannah felt an immediate sense of relief, she was thinking maybe he knows she is fake. But to her lucky star, he Didn’t. He even welcomed me!.

It was Owens old age that was playing games with him. The lady in front of her had no slightest resemblance with Charity Wakins, but now he said so himself.

Soon after, He went back to the large podium without giving Mark another glance and dismissed the soldiers.

It was after that he hugged Mark. It was a passionate moment for both of them.

Hannah was closed to being caught today if not that Ex-communicando returned. She had earlier left to meet with Jake and explained she is unable to find the silver ring. She didn’t take any permission from the president general and with that alone, she could get punished for disobeying the president generals one rule ‘Always take permission!’ and as a matter of fact, Mark would start to dig in deep into her and she didn’t wanted that as it may blow up her cover.

She managed to resolve with Jake that she now has devised a plan to get the silver ring but it may take time, like 2 weeks and Jake obliged as it won’t affect his plan that much…. He just needed rescheduling.

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

“Sir! We narrowly escaped and on our escape we lost the strand of hair we got from the two boys but however, we still have the strand of hair we got from their sister. ” The Geng leader reported with his heads down.

Jake was in good mood, thus he didn’t even have the time to punish the Geng for 79% completed mission. He has the habit of either killing or punishing whoever he sents on a mission and results comes out failed. After all, he could still carry out the DNA paternity test using the strand of hair that’s available.

If he was the father of their sister, then for sure he is the father of the boys. Although, there may be possibilities he is not , that is if two men impregnated Diana separately almost the same time and fertilized an egg each. One egg could split to become identical twins (Stoic and Legacy) and share same placenta while the other egg could generate to be the daughter (Jennifer.)

Jake soon went to one of the reputable hospitals and got the test conducted and it showed that he was 85% father of the child. Which directly to him means he is the father of the triplets. Diana is not a prostitute who could sleep with two men at the same time or consecutive times that would get her pregnant. Little did he know that the strand of hair he used to conduct the DNA paternity test was cut from his actual daughter, Clara. The daughter Hannah has for her.

He even didn’t know if Clara attended same school with the three Rugrats. It was his assistant that got her enrolled there.

Now, he has to prove that he is the father of the triplets and as well take custody of the triplets and full right to go the legal way if Diana refuses and secondly he now has a major lead to win Diana back.

As soon as Jake exited the hospital with the test result in his hands, he entered his car and texted Hannah the good news ‘ I have done the paternity test and I now have full prove I’m the kids father. You can now get Diana framed and sent out of the military base now, I’ll take it from there ….’

So far so good for Jake, his plan has been flawless…. and going as planned.
